After watching Garth's abduction at the top of Brightwood Tower during the
The Hero of Will quest, you'll be notified that a bandit named Ripper has been terrorizing a farming family in Brightwood. Basically, this is the good alternative to the
Red Harvest quest. Pay a visit to Giles' Farm in the northwest corner of Brightwood, where you'll knock on the door and speak to the man himself. Giles will tell you that Ripper killed his wife and forced him to send his son away until things are safe. He then asks for your help in bringing the cold-hearted bandit to justice - without killing him.
Ripper's camp is to the southeast of Giles' Farm. When you arrive, four separate waves of bandits will drop down (from the trees?) to deal with you. After they've all been slain, Ripper will drop down to deal with you himself. You'll find that he's considerably tougher than any other bandit you've fought thus far due simply because he has access to the Time Control spell - and he'll use it to teleport to your position whenever possible. Just keep hacking, shooting, or casting when he's vulnerable, and eventually he'll throw down his weapon (a
Steel Cutlass for you to pick up) and surrender. At this point, you can either kill him (20 corruption points) or spare him (30 good points). Either way, you'll earn 750 renown points when Giles shows up to haul him off to jail or stare at his corpse.
