Your task 'A Formal Dinner Party' has been updated.' Hail the guests around the table and go through their text. DetailsA boisterous bard says, 'Oh. Hello. Shhh. I'm listening to the [music].' You say, 'What do you think of the music?' A boisterous bard says, 'It's a little dry. The extra clattering of the bones don't match the beat.' A bobtailed beastlord says, 'Hail. I can't believe that they made me leave [fluffy] behind.' You say, 'You named your warder fluffy?' A bobtailed beastlord says, 'Hrmf. Its my companion I can call it whatever I want.' A bloodthirsty berserker says, 'Where is the [ale]?' You say, 'I don't see any drinks, much less ale. I wonder why.' A bloodthirsty berserker says, 'I bet it's those silly [vampires].' You say, 'Why do you think the vampires are the cause?' A bloodthirsty berserker says, 'Are you daft? Vampires! They only drink blood!' A crafty cleric says, 'Are you one of the [servant]'s of the keep?' You say, 'I am not a servant' A crafty cleric says, 'Well. Can you get me one? The [food] here has appalling nutritional value. How do they expect me to heal on this stuff?' You say, 'The food does look a but meager.' A crafty cleric says, 'So shoo. Go retrieve a servant.' A dubious druid shivers 'It's all so [dead] here. No life. Nothing living.' You say, 'It is a home of the undead. Why did you even come here?' A dubious druid says, 'I came at the orders of my hierophant. Go. Leave me be.' An eloquent enchanter says, 'There are rumors of vampires able to mesmerize someone with only their eyes. That must be so useful. Oh sorry, that was rude. [Hello]!' You say, 'I don't mind a delayed hello. That mesmerization by gaze must be amazing.' An eloquent enchanter says, 'Hey. Wait. Aren't you the one that broke mez the other day! Leave me be and learn how to fight!' A misunderstood magician says, 'Greetings. The stone and magic in this place is so amazing. I [wonder].' You say, 'What do you wonder?' A misunderstood magician says, 'Not sure I should [tell] you.' You say, 'I'll keep it secret. Go ahead and tell me.' A misunderstood magician says, 'If I chipped some of this stone and used it as a summoning reagent, would my pet be stronger?' A mysterious monk says, 'Humble greetings You say, 'Some people find music tranquil and calming' A mysterious monk says, 'And some music is, but not the clatter of the bones making music here.' A noctilucent necromancer says, 'Hi. Tell me. Do you [know]?' You say, 'Know what?' A noctilucent necromancer says, '[How] they do it?' You say, 'Wait, I think you are ahead of yourself. How do they do what?' A noctilucent necromancer says, 'The bones. How do they get such delicate movement from their skeletons. To play an instrument and not simply attack. Oh. You wouldn't know. Let me think in peace.' A peaceful paladin seems to be unhappy. "It's [difficult]." You say, 'What's difficult?' A peaceful paladin says, 'Not leaping out of this [room] and killing everything.' You say, 'Why would you want to kill everything outside of this room?' A peaceful paladin says, 'Are you that daft? They're all undead. Go bother someone else.' A rambunctious ranger says, 'I must be getting [old].' You say, 'Why do you feel old?' A rambunctious ranger says, 'Just last year I could trueshot for hours, now I tire so easily.' A ravenous rogue says, 'Man. No-one brought anything [fun] to the party other than their fancy epic weapons.' You say, 'How do you know no-one brought anything fun?' A ravenous rogue stares at you like you forgot to put on your pants. 'Think about it.' A stylish shaman says, 'What? Oh. Hail. Would you get me more to [drink]? I need it. And be sure that it's half alcohol.' You say, 'Why do you need a drink?' A stylish shaman says, 'Those melee fighters. They are so reckless. Never know when to stop and I always have to rescue them.' A wayward warrior says, 'You hedge-born, crooked-nosed knave. Go back to the privy that birthed your [mother]. What're you going to do about that?' You say, 'Hey! Don't insult my mother!' A wayward warrior says, 'Oh! Sorry, That was rude wasn't it? It's a habit. Hour after hour on the battlefield I taunt. Maybe I'm not the best company.' A worldly wizard says 'Why didn't you address me by [name]? Don't you know who, I, am? I'm very important... at the Academy...' They continue to drone on until you interrupt. You say, 'But you didn't say my name either.' A worldly wizard says, 'Because you aren't important, Yourname.' After speaking to all the guests: The room falls into darkness. A blood curdling scream comes from the direction you last saw Mr. Smotts. In your startlement, you trip on the rug. (The screen goes black for a few seconds... When your vision returns, you have been knocked down and will need to stand up.) Hail Melion Pell and follow his text. He will explain that a murder just took place, and that he needs you to find proof of whodunnit and where the crime occurred. There will be four items found as drops from random trash in the zone, and each item has a list of usable classes. Only one class is listed on all four items, and this implicates the murderer. Tips: Places with mobs that need to be checked include the drachnid tunnels under the laboratory, the resting guests in the coffins of the crypt, and the weapon racks in the study. DetailsMelion Pell, Minor Functionary says, 'Yes. Hello. Oh how horrible. A murder in the master's castle. And Mr. Smoots at that. Who would murder the butler. Wait. You are an [adventurer]!' You say, 'Yes. I am an adventurer.' Melion Pell, Minor Functionary says, 'Good. I know adventurers are not investigators, but will you please [investigate] and find proof of who the murderer is? I'm sorry to say that with this turmoil, the inhabitants of the keep will not be friendly towards you.' You say, 'We will investigate the murder. What do you need as proof?' Melion Pell, Minor Functionary says, 'I'm not sure exactly what will be there. The denizens are likely to pick up anything that's not food, so you will have to liberate it from them. I think five pieces of evidence will do. I acknowledge that the murder moved the body and probably cleaned up after themselves, but if you can find what room the murder happened, that will also be a help.' Your task 'A Formal Dinner Party' has been updated. Turn in one of the dropped items to Melion Pell. Turn in one of the dropped items to Melion Pell. Turn in one of the dropped items to Melion Pell. Turn in one of the dropped items to Melion Pell. The final proof to turn in is a ground-spawn food item. The four dropped items implicated a class sitting at the dinner table, and they have a specific food in front of them. Find the room that has this food in it, and turn that food item in to Melion Pell. Melion Pell, Minor Functionary says, 'So. What room was the murder in? The [laboratory], [ballroom], [library], [bedrooms], [crypt], [study], or the [ritual area].' State the room where the murder took place. This is the room where you found the murderer's specific food. Name the murderer. The list of possible classes to accuse varies with each attempt at this group mission. Melion Pell, Minor Functionary says, 'That's very disappointing. The master will deal with-- Look out!' Kill the accused. If you guessed incorrectly, two classes will attack you and you must defend yourself from both. Hail Melion Pell and click through his text. Melion Pell, Minor Functionary says, '[Thank you] for dealing with the matter. While we love our master, we don't want to draw his attention if we can avoid it. Take this reward for you fine investigating skills.' You say, 'You're welcome.' Melion Pell, Minor Functionary says, 'May the master's gaze never fall on you.' Correctly identifying the room and the murderer on your first attempt spawns a chest on the dinner table, with a Red Berry Paste inside. Give this item to any "a batling" in the static Dreadspire zone to receive the Extruded Pearl Augment. The batling at zone-in works, as do the batlings at the first spire. WARNING: You cannot have a pet up while turning in the Red Berry Paste -- messaging indicates having a pet up makes the bats jealous or something to that effect. - Tobynn Bonus Item: Extruded Black Pearl Map File Locations: Put these in dreadspire_3.txt P -249.8655, -2583.1602, 124.5690, 0, 240, 240, 3, Bedroom?
