@Orlando: What's this about Charisma having an effect on Turn Undead? Can I get a confirmation on this?

In 3rd Edition, Charisma adds to Turn Undead ability (it also helps with some Paladin abilities too) - check the 3E Player's Handbook for this

Here's how I verified the Charisma vs. Undead.

I tried turning a vampire without any of the charisma items and Aerie was killed rather quickly. but when I gave her the human influence ring she actually turned a vampire (annoying, I had to chase it), so I decided to save up and give her everything I could find that boosts charisma and tried turning another one of Bohdi's Vampires you randomly encounter at night. This time, the vampire blew up.

So, maybe it's luck, but I'm banking on charisma effecting turning (besides it is part of the D&D rules).

Oh and so everyone knows, don't try turning the Demi-Lich (he's immune).

@Fas

The Mauler's Arm +2 is in the Copper Coronet after you free the slaves. The Innkeeper sells it for approx. 3000gp.

The Sensuate Amulet is sold by Deidre. She's the merchant that has the Robe of Vecna and some other nice goodies (very expensive though, nothing is below 10k in gold in her wares).

Hope that helps :)
