A6 - Creeped out by Gladwell - is he beatable later?

[Ociporus]

Just finished the 2nd quest for Gladwell, the Undead Spiral tampering. Managed to survive, which was a major feat on its own. Then found out the dudes at the entrance were pretty ticked.

Talking to Gladwell afterwards was very disturbing. What an evil guy. So I restored my game from before the quest and am doing without his reward.

 

In A5, I'd killed Gladwell after doing all his quests. I think lots of you players did too. It was quite satisfying at the time; seemed the most deserved fate for a guy like him.

 

Is it possible to do his quests, then do him in afterwards? Or does all of Patrick's Tower go snaky about it? Seems most of the people there can't stand him being around, don't agree with the situation, and wouldn't mind him being eliminated. But maybe he's one NPC that CAN'T be cashed in in this episode.

 

If he can be beaten afterwards, I might go ahead and do his bidding. But I don't want him ending up being ruler of Avernum.

Gladwell can be killed later (and not to ruin the bit, but it won't be in Patrick's Tower that you get him). However, for interest I left him alive after completing all of his quests to see how that would affect the ending text. I was quite surprised how that turned out.

In A6, you can in fact kill Gladwell if and only if you do all of his quests.

I always try and roleplay as good/saintly, but I had to have his final present
