It's pretty evil, but if you are going to do it, do it after you complete the Underdark.

You are actually *forced* to fight the Silver (even if you are actually good) if you mess-up the eggs quest. It's actually pretty easy to do this.

That all depends on whether you roleplay or not. If you do, does it match your alignment? I'd say, unless you're evil, it does not. If you don't roleplay, then who cares, right?

Spoiler ahead (if you don't already now about the human flesh +5)

Bad Idea if good aligned
Good idea if evil aligned
If evil - After you screw over the Matron Mother. Go back to Adalon (silver dragon) and she'll be rather upset at what you've done to her eggs, having given them to a demon and all.

To make the Human Flesh +5

Ingredients:
1 vial of silver dragon's blood
1 set of human flesh
Note: Add eye of newt for color ;)


Directions:
1. Take one very large cauldron and fill 3/4 full with water. (do not use holy water as this will destroy the human flesh and ruin the spell)
2. Bring to a boil and add the human flesh.
3. Stir occasionally.
4. After the human flesh has softened from the heat, add the silver dragon's blood.
5. Reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes
6. Let stand 4-6 hours to cool and cure
7. Put on and admire your disgusting new armor. (might I suggest some cologne as well)

No seriously, all you have to do is take a guy in Trademeet named Dorcin the human flesh and the silver dragon's blood and he'll reward you with the Human Flesh +5.

Stats:
Armor Class: 3
Saving Throws: +4
Magic Resistance: 20%

That's so evil. I know Adalon is an arrogant ***** who belittles even though you're her only hope, but that doesn't make her worthy of death (well, maybe).

I wonder, what if we could gather scales from a variety of dragons - blue, red, silver, white, etc - and combine them into one super-armor?

Adalon is a dragon, and as a dragon she must be killed.

Well, compared to the dragons in SoA she is the hardest in my oppinion. You cant compare them to the ones in ToB though

Do I lose any rep for killing the Silver dragon? Not outright attacking, but giving away her eggs? Umma woop her ass.

If you're evil enough to waste a good silver dragon, and take her blood so that you can wear a malevolent suit of human flesh, then you shouldn't really be worrying about reputation!!??

But I say you should ream that Silver Dragon. I was going to do her quest, but she was such an arrogant SOB that I just had to kill her. That armour was awesome for my solo assassin.

The guy you take it to is in the Umar Hills, right in front of the inn (not trademeet). And his name is Dorcin Cole, but it will appear as Fael. :p

Can you yourself give the silver dragon eggs to the Lesser Demon Lord? I noticed that the option didn't come up when I was playing through the last time. The Demon killed the Matron Mother and Phaere, what happens if you tell the demon to return whence he came?
Does the detect the eggs on you, or does he just attack?

is pickpocketing the silver dragon exploit still doable after installing tob and full eng patch?

Also, one of the dialog options should give you the option of offering the eggs to the demon lord so you will get fragon breath halberd in exchange. or darkmist, not sure which he drops if you kill it.

The armor is great for even good parties, if you love our viccy, and we all do, since she is such a BAD girl, it and a amulet of magic resistnace and something else, I think the gaxx ring will put her magic resist to 100%!!!! better than annoying keldorn any day.

I'd much rather off teh demon to get its good and keep viccy at 80% magic resist, and not get the skin armor. ever seen silence of the lambs? Would gross me out to make the moves on yummy viccy after I got her the armor.
