Yes. You are sent there by Houghton to investigate as a quest.

I would like to put my two cents in, if you don't mind. I love every game Jeff has made. Sure they have points of haziness, but they are all great games. You don't like these graphics that the Avernum's had, you should see the old, old Exile graphics when the games were just coming out. And sound quality, forget it! But the point I'm trying to make is even though things weren't great, the games were still and always will be awsome.

I'm just wondering if there's a place where someone might have made a copy of the underground maps of Avernum. It would've been nice if they added those maps somewhere, since a good deal of the early game is underground!

'Slams the gambel down' Then I move that this topic be closed. Who seconds this motion?

In the room with three pools, you have to touch each one starting from the left and going right. I hope this helps.

I haven't read many of these posts, so if I happen to repeat something I appologize. Four years after Rentar-Ihrno is banished, Empress Prazac is murdered by a group called 'The Loyalists'. Instead of retalliation, most of the Empire cheers, because of her dealings with Avernum. The Empire/Avernum war is again in full swing. Most of Valorim takes the side of Avernum, though. At the same time, Rentar-Ihrno has teamed up with Avernum's worst enemy, Grah-Hoth. Monster plagues, shades, you name it it's back. They are out for blood and are holding nothing back. With all of this going on, Is this the end of the World? I know it's a bit over the top, but I think it sounds good!

I have a four human group. They are all custom. Jerry- Lvl 14 Fighter Jessica- Lvl 17 Archer/Lockpicker/Trap disarmer Nick- Lvl 13 Mage Carol- Lvl 11 Priest/Alchemist Nick and Carol also have some small skill in weapons.

Thanks Dikiyoba! I found the saw. I guess from now on I'll look on past forums for more info instead of creating a new one. Thanks again.

I got the mission and searched north of Cotra, but I only found his ax, but I can't find his saw. Could anyone please help me?

Hey, how are y'all doin' today? This is my first post in months. I just want to ask Thlis Avatar why you don't think Avernum 1 has no plot. I do agree it's not as thick as 2 @ 3 or even 4 (which I haven't played yet but just ordered today!), but that doesn't mean it has no plot whatsoever. Any game that has missions and wingame finalies has to have some sort of plot somewhere. Oh and by the way, I voted for Avernum 1 and BoA!

Just to reply, I have used it a few times. It seems that if your luck is high enough, you can steal the coins from it without people seeing you. Other than that, it has no other purpose I know of. I forgot to mention. If you do steal from the pond and are caught, you lose 1 or 2 points of Reputation. Sorry I can't remember, it's been awhile.

Really!!!! That's cool.

About how the silence period was done when I was an apprentice is something you can privately talk to me about, but not here! It was done way differently.

Yes, very open...after you kill the guards, dispel the barriers and kill more guards...it's wide open!

I've also hidden my tower behind a rock cropping with a hidden entrance. But please, before you try to enter my tower, be sure and talk to Kelner first. It wastes your time, and I won't open the door for you.

[ Originally written by Marak-13. When the going gets tough, members of the Triad get going.] Hey I take offence to that, I was just gathering my thoughts. I couldn't do that with the thought of a powerfull demon within feet of where I sat. And scared people always wanting to ask how we can get rid of it (sorry Kelner). Thanks to me the demon was destroyed.

He doesn't thank you for charming him, because he was never meant to be hotile. I can't see why Jeff didn't change him since he was the same in E3 if I remember right.

Olgai Silvar The Castle

There are two such orbs in general, 1-in the ruined fort that Khoth tells you about. 2-in the strange cave. The one in the ruined fort is not the one the scimitar is searching for. The one you're looking for is in the strange cave. Walk through killing gremlins as you go. When you come to a point to go either right or left, go right. Around the corner along the west wall you'll find a hidden teleporter, use it. Go into the building and kill the Empire soldiers. Before you enter the other room though, search along the northeastern for a hidden room. Touch the rune TWICE. Go through the fort and you'll eventually find the teleporter. When you enter it it'll take you to the cave with the orb. When you smash it, two demons appear so you might wanna prepare first if you're weak unlike me. Go down the corridor and where it bends, search the west wall for hidden entrance, and enter the teleporter. Enter the building and touch the rune Twice again, and take the teleporter and you'll back at the beginning.

You can get 8 crystals, but you only need 6. Here are the locations. 1-Island south of Cotra 2-Island SW of Cotra, and east of the Slith Island Fort. Hidden 3-Inside the Slith Island Fort. 4-Hungry drake in caves west of Slith Island Fort. 5-One of the camps when you kill all the sliths at the NE camp you find a crystal. 6-Altar NE of Fort Dranlon (already mentioned) 7-Aranea Cave 8-Chasm Drake's Lair (already mentioned) There might actually be more or maybe that's it. hope this helps.

I'm glad to see all this support for Terror's Martyr. I have seen him on here for some time. He may have some colorful moments, but he's helped so many people and contributed a lot to Spiderweb Software. On a lighter note...I made A4. I asked if I was in there and they said yes. But cheeseball's not there, and they said I'm angry about something. That's all they told me.

I have just started a new party for A2. Human Male Warrior- (all important skills up to 32) Human Female Warrior- (same as Jerry except up to 28) Human Female Priest- Priest spells and bow skill (just in case) Human Male Mage- Mage spells and Javelins skill (just in case)
