The Dead

Deep within Neriak's 3rd Gate lies the Temple of The Dead, ghouls guard the entrance passageway where the power of Neriak appears strongest. Here Necromancers train under Xon Quexill alongside of Shadow Knights under Nexxka Tolax. The Dead are Loyal to the Dark Elven Queen Cristianos Thex and directly oppose the Dark Elven King Tearis Thex. They despise the lesser magics, and though they are opposed by The Spurned (Dark Elf Magic users) they reserve their hate for the Gnome Magic users of the Eldritch Collective and the High Elf Magic users of the Felwithe Keepers of the Art.

The following quests require The Dead faction

These quests all require amiable to The Dead; also I don't know of any valid targets for Alliance in Neriak Third Gate:

Thex Mallet
Messages For Neriak
Sir Lindeal's Testimony
Fire Beetle Eyes

These quests all require indifferent to The Dead:

Necromancer Words - X`Ta Tempi
Necromancer Words - X`Ta Timpi
Necromancer Words - X`Ta Tompi

Human Necro worshipper of Innoruuk-->decided to go to Neriak all conned Dubious to Indifferent.
Except for the Ghouls theywere KOS used Invis to Undead went past,Necro Trainers had no problems with me.I could train in guild and buy sell at merchants,just couldnt receive quests..Killed 10-12of the High Elves in NektulosForest,now can do the quests offered by NecroGm's,which have boosted faction again.Ghouls are still and probably will always be KOS even tho Necro GM's now amiable..Best way to raise other DarkElf Factions is hand red wine to Lokar To'biath (in Library in 3rd gate)started at dubious 2 stacks later he was ally,2 more stacks 90%of merchants are now allys,and minimum faction with guards now is indifferent throughout Neriak..only other DarkElves that remain Dubious are the other class trainers and some of the other class specific merchants..
This was all done to see if a Human could make Neriak his Home!

Kill the new high elves mages in Nek Forest. They just appeared March 2002. As well as dropping lore items for caster quests they seem to give faction for The Dead
High Elf in Najena
# Mar 27 2002 at 10:32 PM Rating: Default
Can't remember her name, but there's a high elf chanter in the jail near the injured haffer in Najena. Killing her 8-10 times makes you allied with The Dead. She's 20 odd and can charm anything, so be prepared to be charmed. Lowers most of Felwithe's factions, but as an inky, who cares?
Fastest way to Unkos for Iksar?

As an Iksar, I am threatingly to the Dead. What is the fastest way to get to dubious? Who should I kill and about how many times? I play on a PvP-server so "lighty"-faction doesn't mean anything to me.
Which NPC?
# Jul 12 2001 at 5:40 PM Rating: Default
Which NPCs (besides the guildmasters) give the best Faction for Dead for killing them? Is it based on how Illia lists them?
lvl?

Killing Retlon Brenclog in Crushbone will raise faction with The Dead. You will also gain Dark Reflection, and lose most of the Ak'Anon factions.

When you kill them, supposedly they raise your faction with TheDead...
i started dubious and after wasting a total of 27 hours just killing them (i killed more than 150) my faction is still at dubious...

besides killing guildmasters, i dont know if there really is a way to raise that faction if you cant do the quests...
RE: High Elven slaves

Mobs have varing faction 'points'. Slaves probably count as .5, while a Guild leader would carry Like 1000.

Dubious is one of the larger faction buckets (est 700 points), so if you are just inside the Dubious bucket (-699 Faction), then you would might have to get to -100 Faction to become apprenshive, or 0 to be indifferent. Thus, you might have to kill 1400 slaves to become indifferent.

Basically, a quicker way is to kill HE mages or Renton in Crushbone (Named NPCs seem to give more than the normal 1 point for mobs).

Good eye =)

I thought King Tearis Thex was the High Elven King, not the dark elven one...

The Dark Elven king is called AYTHOX Thex.
