Drwo in da Hood... i mean underdark
Hiya! ive beaten SOA once alrdy so this is all old news. but i was wondering wat path i should take when infiltrating the Drow City. when i used my first char to beat the game i gave the real eggs to the dragon after betraying the drow by placing fake eggs as an offering. if i recall u can decide NOT to betray them, i am playing SOA again and not my new TOB because im trying to take my char in a dif direction. so, ne 1 got sum suggestions fo my char in the Drow City?

Simple:
If you are a good char you give the eggs to Adalon and betray the Drow.
If you are Evil you can give the eggs to the Demon.
Dont know what path you get when u give the eggs to the Matron Mother, Phaere or just keep it for ureself though. Just prepare to face a really angry Dragon when giving the eggs to the Demon

i believe the fish guy will squeal on you after a few days, so you have to kill her...
use remove fear, and deathward imoen...
they are using horror, or symbol fear on you...remove fear or resist fear, the spell will protect you...
deathward the party members who die when they cast symbol death on you...it will protect them...

PLZ help!!!!!!!
i alrdy set up a thread bout this but it wasnt very promising unfortuenently. Once i beat rayic gethras (the cowled agent in the docks) i walked out of the building with my Mage/Mage and suddenely by spell square when brown (as in i cant use it)
and b4 that from the begining to rayic gethras i could hit people so my chars aim was rly bad! (even wid hacked stats) but when i left rayic Gethras' house i could hit again, but not cast spells!
I am in the underdark so dont think its temporary.

@DashGore, please don't put up threads asking people to respond to you directly by email. It's kinda discourteous to the boards, which you're using to get an answer. Who knows, the responses might be of use to somebody else.
So I've removed your email. Hopefully, someone will be able to deal with your questions.
May I ask what nation you're from?

underdark BAD MOVE
i just discovered a BAD MOVE in the underdark for the first time (as in I have never done it, but mayb u hav) when i was supposed to steal the eggs instead i want to the Matron Mother and told her about the betrayal it didnt end well! the traitor died, the demon was summoned and the eggs were NOWHERE to be found. and to top it all off, the demon could see my true form and he uncovered my secret. If u wanna do this just for fun remember these things....
Have a save rdy b4 u go to matron mother
the demon is invicable(literally, no weapons effect im)
the eggs are like eaten or sumding

by the demon immedietly
u do dis thing at ur own risk

It's an OK sword, but not the best in the game. The STR bonus rocks, but that's about it.

no its ok
The path you took was the evil path.
SPOILER BELOW
There are several ways of handling this situation, you can betray a range of different people.
The demon can be beaten, he will have some magical barriers you need to remove and +4 or better weapons from memory (use the drow stuff).
Now, when you kill the demon, there are spolit eggs left from memory.
You then need to get out of the drow city, and when you try to leave the underdark the silver dragon will attack you.
This is another very difficuly battle, but once again possible and she has one very nice item which is part of another quest, that will allow you to build perhaps the nicest item in the game for an evil character.

@DashGore, I'm getting headaches from the private messages asking why you're spamming up the main page of SoA with many threads devoted to one problem: the Underdark.

Consequently, I'm moving all seven of 'em altogether. Please, take a look around, see how things are done. By all means, ask what questions you need; that's what we're here, for. But remember board courtesy, and how people use the forums to everybody's advantage. Thanks.
PS: One other thing. Putting up a thread labelled HELP ME OR ELSE, while amusing, is not the best way to inform the casual reader about its contents. Please give some idea of what help you need in a thread title. You'll get more responses, that way.

Okay. First of all the demon is not invincible. I'd say it is rather weak, weaker atleast than the balor you killed to get the gem.
I whacked it with my level 17 solo swashbuckler but that doesn't help you of course. He will fall in melee however. When stealing the eggs you need to kill the two guards at the door. Go hidden up to the door, kill the guards. Open the door, hide again open the chest and pause the game, switch eggs, hide and unpause and leave.
About Quile, the aboleth can be told off. You can tell him that he will leave you alone or you will expose him. The better option if you are looking for xp is to kill quile, there you also get a plus 4 weapon, the boneblade. I can see how you struggle if you can't cast spells. I have no idea what you have done to your character. Maybe you can post the character with the problem here so someone can have a look at him with SK.
