    [​IMG] The head is in the Docks district through a door just behind where you meet Xan.
    He is a pretty tough fight and you may want to wait until Chapter 5/6.

    If you go to Kangaxx (in the Docks District in a house with a locked/trapped door), he will ask you to hunt down the other parts of his body for him. That's what the golden torso/arms and legs are for.

    There are several posts on the matter; you may want to search this board for some answers.

    The easiest is give someone a +4 weapon; if he/she is not a mage then a Protection from Magic Scroll (as mentioned above)also. If the person is a mage then Spell Immunity choosing Abjuration also works.

    I hate to jump in the middle of this, but did you say Xan is in the game too! I've been all over the Docks District, and I haven't seen him yet.

    I'm only in the 2nd Chapter...I haven't gone to rescue Imoen yet. Does he show up later? I have all the parts except for the Head too!

    One more question, as I babble along on this thread...I found a severed hand somewhere in the game (I can't remember where) Is it part of this lich? If not, what is it?

    There are a few spots on these boards that cover the killing of Kangaxx. Need +4 or better weapon, and some sort of magical protection from imprisonment. I found that the spell magical immunity (pick abdjuration) works well. I've found that the most damage I can do is 2-4 so you have to be persistant.

    [​IMG] Xan asks you to do a quest in the docks district nothing more. (He will not join the team). He is right in the middle of the district at the bottom of some steps.
    The severed hand is not part of the liche and if I remember correctly it is used when doing the slaver quest under the Copper Coronet to get an excellent talking sword.

    For beating Liches check the other post that's running currently.

    After beating Kangaxx the lich, he transforms into Kangaxx the Demi-Lich. (Perhaps some sort of undead demi-god or something) I was only able to do 2-4 points of damage per hit on him, however he only lasted for 3 hits! The last time I hit him it was with the mace of disruption +2, so perhaps that destroyed him, though the text did not say "Undead destroyed" like it usually does when the mace disrupts something. OH well, I'm not sure what would happen if I did the same thing a second time.

    That's Xzar to be totally correct. He's the Zhent that wants you to break into a house in the docks district.

    Wonder it is just me or may be a standalone case. Not long ago, I decided to try my team by pitting them against the lich in the bridge district.

    At first, I tried to overwhelm him and the fight was quite confused. Soon the lich gained the upper hand and severly injured most of my party members. He also managed to call up a pit fiend. I decided to retreat (my party was hasted). But as they approach the exit, I discovered that the pit fiend had turned against the lich and they were fighting with each other (likely the lich had not been able to cast protection from evil on himself). Finally, the pit fiend killed the lich and I killed the fiend.
