    In cloakwood 1, Aldeth is standing. In a previous game, he was begging for assistance against evil druids. Now he won't even talk to any of my chars.
    Is it rep? (My rep = 13). Or is it because my party is full of evil chars (Shar-Teel, Viconia, Xzar...)? Or is it because my PC is a disgusting dwarf? (Chaotic Neutral)

    Could be your rep or your charisma.

    I just checked the guide. It doesn't say anything about conditons. Try going north and talk to Coran then come back down and try again.

    OR:
    Load from before you entered the area (auto-save?) for the first time.
    Try talking to him again after that.

    I know then!
    That happened to me my first game. :(

    You must do it right away. After you go so far into the Cloakwood the quest can't be done.

    Well, too bad.
    Thanks for this info.

    As he is very gross, my dwarf will make slices of him, the druids won't have to dirty their hands.

    Spoil (for the future)

    You can kill him for his sword. If you do his friend will show up in BG city to get revenge. He has some good stuff.

    If you help him with the Druids you can get an extra quest in BG city where he will give the sword as a reward.

    Tough choice which is the better way. I have thought that killing those nasty Shadow Druids was the role-play "good" path. Helping the Druids kill him the neutral path. Killing both groups the evil path.

    The guy that comes to revenge is actually his brother, who does indeed has some great stuff but isn't particularly hard to kill. I had Quayle cast Hold Person and then bashed him to death. He carries a Morningstar+1 and a Heavy Crossbow of Accuracy+2.

    You won't lose reputation as they're all neutral..
