The lack of a House prefix to his last name would seem to indicate that Kizdean was of low birth. How impressive must be his prowess that he rose in the ranks of the Shadowknights of the Dead despite the impairment of his birth?

  • This mob spawns at -200, +1025.
  • Respawn Timer: 6 minutes 25 seconds

So there are two different version of Kizdean Gix in Commonlands that share a spawn at location -200, 1025 and have a respawn time of 6M 25S after being killed.

Both dropped the Sealed Note [Kizdean Gix Note] and both respond to:

You say, 'The Dead'

Kizdean Gix says, 'The Dead are the combined might of the [Teir'Dal] shadowknights and necromancers. A mightier force cannot be found in all of Norrath.'

To get replies to Teir`dal, koada`dal and feir`dal you need to use backticks instead of forward ticks, regardless of the text provided:

"Haven't you been educated?! Pay attention, the Teir`Dal are the dark elves, the Koada`Dal are the high elves and the Feir`Dal are the wood elves."

You say, 'utalk adarev otcin'

Kizdean Gix says, 'You speak the words of the Dead. You must be the assistance Loveal was to send. You must work quickly! Inside Befallen are the three pieces to the [Thex Mallet] which are to be returned to Loveal. Find Hubard L`rodd. He was my assistant. Give him this note and he should have information.'

Receive: Tattered Cloth Note [Note To Hubard L'rodd]

But only version 1 would respond to [Thex Mallet]

You say, 'Thex Mallet'

Kizdean Gix says, 'The Thex Mallet is a very special weapon of elven creation. It is as ancient as Norrath itself. Queen Cristanos commands that we find it and return it to Loveal S'nez. That is all you need to know.'

and only version 1 would give the Sealed Letter [Letter To Loveal Of The Dead].


Version 1:
You say, 'Hail, Kizdean Gix'

Kizdean Gix says, 'If you have business then out with it! If not, then please be gone. I have little time to waste on chitchat!'

You say, 'any messages for neriak'

Kizdean Gix says, 'It's about time a courier reached these wastelands of humanity. I have urgent news for the Dead. Take this message at once. Let no one stop you. Be on the lookout for the Feir'Dal [Silent Watch]! They have learned of our quest.'

Receive: Sealed Letter [Letter To Loveal Of The Dead]

You say, 'What Silent Watch?'

Kizdean Gix says, 'The Koada'Dal have created an elite band of paladins, greater even than our own Teir'Dal Dragoons. They exist on the edge of righteousness. They will perform despicable acts in the name of their deity, barely skimming the edge of evil.'

You say, 'any messages for neriak'

Odd. I just killed him again, and the faction hit for The Dead and Primordial Malice doubled (-10 and +20 respectively).
The rest of the faction hits stayed the same.

Was there a faction bonus event going on during the increased hits?

Odd. both times conned green, me being level 24. Both dropped the sealed note. Not quite sure what the difference is between the two kills.

He usually wanders and sits still, on the other side of the hill from the inns, towards the ecommons zone.

The dragoon though, seems to be all over the grass / desert line.

Had to "farm" him to raise Keepers of the Art faction (needed for ranger epic 1.0). These are my findings:

1. Spawn location is approx. -160, 260
2. 8 minutes between pops
3. In addition to drops listed, he also dropped the following while I was farming him:

Part of Tasarin's Grimoire Pg. 26


Torian Evilsbane of Tunare
Ranger of the 50th season
May Tunare Watch Over You

*Malachite x1
*Words of the x1
Bead Necklace x1
*Rune of Nagafen x1
*Tarasin's Grimoire, Pg.26 x1
*Dark Elf Parts x6

*=can be used in tradeskills
Caster have no chance?!?!

Ok, whats the big deal? casters dont stand a chance? I walked up and hailed this guy, hey had an attitude so i popped him twice. He dropped like a bad habit.Only chance he had, musta harm touched for about 275. 24 Wiz unbuffed.
Faction
# Sep 12 2005 at 5:47 AM Rating: Decent
I've heard that killing Dorn in NRO adds faction to Darkwater Knights. Does this guy add faction to Deepwater Knights too or is the faction list correct for this mob?

He had a pet.-
# Jun 14 2005 at 9:15 PM Rating: Decent
My story of too close an encounter with Kizdean Gix and his little pet skeleton too. I should mention I am a lvl 19 Dru. He conned dark blue to me; his pet was green.

I musta wandered too close because suddenly this quy is running at me and his skeleton pet is outpacing him trying to get at me. It was like they were having a contest on who would kill the halfling druid first. So I tried to root...it didn't take. I set a DT (Stinging Swarm) on him, which took. Realized I'd been zapped and was down to about 40%. Luckily I had SOW and I started to run. I ran far enough that I stopped and healed myself (was 35% then), then ran around Kizdean hitting him with lightning till he was dead, while the Dot was eating at him too. Then I dealt with the pet (who also wouldn't root). I had Skin like Stone and Bramblecoat on. Whew.

Owning Gix - Fearing Zytl

After Gix had his way with me when I was a 19 druid just hanging out fishing, I decided I wanted an instant re-match so I took my little old hairy footed halfing druid and taught him a lesson. He hit hard at first but slowed quickly and the rimmer gave up when he got down to 30%. Now, I didn't listen to the warnings about Zytl, I was waiting at the mouth of befallen med'ing up and this little freakish ******* wacks me on the back of my head for 301 points of damage. Thank god I didn't have my spellbook opened yet and immeadiatly took off running like a bat out of hell all the way to Kithicor, didn't even look back so I had no clue what the frwak even looked like. I can't wait til I am at the level whereas I can fit him into a scheduled slot and give him some stick time. If you are soloing at <30 and kill Gix - get the hell out of there.
Spawn Time
# Sep 12 2004 at 1:54 PM Rating: Decent
I've been using this guy for faction. I've found the best way to time him is to let his corpse rot. He respawns when corpse has 10-11 seconds to go. (Spawn time is just under 8 minutes).

Some interesting facts about Kizdean Gix:

"utalk adarev otcin" are the words used to start the quest with him for the Thex Mallet. If you reverse each word and keep it in the same order it becomes
"klatu verada nicto" ... This phrase was FIRST used in the 1951 movie, " The Day the earth stood still " starring Michael Rennie and Patricia Neal. These words were spoken to a 20' tall robot named Gort, to avert him from destroying the world.

This Phrase was also later used in the movie " Army of Darkness ", Starring ( the chin himself ) Bruce Campbell. This phrase was Supposed to be used to allow the Necronomicon ( the Book of the Dead ) to be removed from it's cradle in a Dark Cemetary. Alas, the phrase wsa bungled and not spoken with Every little syllable correct, thus unleashing the army of darkness.

Just a wee bit of trivia for your Day. :-)

Sweet Revenge
# Jul 11 2004 at 7:56 PM Rating: Default
Ah yes... the chance to strike back at Gix =D I killed this punk today with my 40 Rogue completely unbuffed.. Snuck up to him, used my sneak attack ablity and backstabbed for 189. He returned the favor with his Harmtouch, but i just stuck it out and melee'd him with the raise resistances combat ability on and dropped his punk-*ss like a bad habit in less then a minute... He tried to turn and run at 20% health.. but it was too late =D looked at my health bar.. he only hit took me down to 75% life. Revenge is bliss.. Now as i was emboldened, I tried soloing a HG, again.. unbuffed and promptly found myself running for my life to WC making it with 25% life to spare LOL!

# Aug 09 2004 at 1:22 PM Rating: Decent
lol, um...I don't think it's good for us rogues to brag at lvl 40 about killing a troublsome lvl 20. I understand, but...um...you're 20 lvls more than he is, and if you actually have some problems with him, then there is something horribly wrong. I myself have yet to see him, and infact I plan to in a couple minuets. I could even see a lvl 30 telling his story, but 40? geeze...
Info on this bugger
# Jun 21 2004 at 1:42 AM Rating: Decent
Just a little info on the bugger. Casters have very little chance against this bugger i kinda realized today :( as i was in the zone to kill him with my druid for Faction to my epic. HE RESISTED my Immolation of Ro, All my Roots and Snares and im a 63 druid :D only the swarm spells hit him. Beware if your pure caster and going on this due
My Gix encounter
# Jan 26 2004 at 2:00 AM Rating: Decent
I'm a level 36 bard and was hunting bears for hq pelts with a level 35 cleric friend when i ran into this guy.i saw that he was green after he attacked me and decided he would be easy. Then, he harm touched me for 191 damage. I thought it was just a normal spell at the time, so i was really freaked out.Then, i looked at the damage and decided he was an sk and came back. This time, his harm touch was down and i kicked his butt easily.That's my story.
I beat the hell out of him
# Nov 17 2003 at 1:16 PM Rating: Default
I killed him on my level 15 druid. he coned yellow so I went at him. I snared him and he resisted a few before I got it off. after that snare hit every other time. I put stinging swarm down on him and blasted when he was in range. i didnt get fear cause I stayed out of range with sow. it took all I had but finaly and with much fan fare I busted his chops like a troll in rivervale.

Killed on FV with my Ranger and at 20 I needed lots of help...Real undercon...
Anyway..he dropped a note that I can't find any info about, it doesn't seem to be related to any of the quests. It reads;

Dearest Kizdean
How dare you waste my time with this pitiful item.
I am power incarnate. I do not need such frilly items. I lay waste to the strongest adventurers who dare walk through the burning fields and into my realm.
Bother me when you can fill this with priceless gems!! Fool!!

SO he's such PITA becuase he obviously isn't getting any.

The note is used in the Rogue's Burning Rapier quest. As far as I know that's its only use.

# May 24 2003 at 8:13 PM Rating: Decent
I ran into him as a lvl 12 druid and he made druid paste out of me. Fast forward a few months to lvl 44. OH revenge is SWEEET. He dropped dark elf parts and that note. I cooked the DE parts and ate them with VERY much pride. Heres to having GIX in for supper. (Drinks from a bottle of elven wine and chows down on Blackened Tier'Dal)

I met this f*****g a*****e when my Ranger was lvl 10, having a little fun and getting some good XP in WC. Near the Tool both I see this guy named Gix, well hay, lets go and talk to him, Bad idea. After about 3 seconds with Gix and his wall to wall councilling session about not hitting the /consider button. Thanks to Gix, I am now a converted follower of the Hate god!

I really, really hate you Gix, be warned, I'll get you!

If you want to know about wall to wall, I have the FM. He smacked me around like Tina Turner when I was lvl 9 and now everytime I pass through WC I say hi for old times sake. Well, I don't really say hi, my Sword of the Bloodsworn and Stained Axe of the Scions do. Revenge is oh so sweet.

Yes, I was hunting in Befallen with my Bard, then decided that it was a LITTLE too much for me. So I left, only to find this **** at the ent. He feared me and I started running to zone. I was so scared, cuz I'd never been feared before (I like to research the stuff I'm camping quite a bit... but I forgot to research the stuff around it).

I promised myself I'd never fear another MOb again after he killed me... then broke that promise forty seconds late when I got on my nec.
