    [​IMG] After finishing the Paladin stronghold quest my party head for the Copper Coronet, when a guy, named Terl(a messanger I suppose) ran into the gang. My protagonist tried to converse with him, but the description said "Terl has nothing to say to you".

    Well O.K. I thought, and moved on.

    :mad: But after this event every time I entered a new area this Terl guy came again and again, and (of course)he had nothing to say.

    Playing a paladin I was very patient, but after the 14 th. meeting I gave up and slayed this Terl person...and got 320 Xp for killing him.:grin: (no reputation change)

    BTW: Who the ...ck is this man I slaughtered last night. Is..ahem Was he important for the storyline?

    Terl is a messenger that should trigger Anomen's quest. I don't have an idea why that happened to you.

    Geez...

    Actually Terl is scripted to follow you around if Anomen is invisible, but not to say nothing... hmmmmm...

    Will you please say what state Anomen is, and have you triggered his quest (talked to his fater)?

    In my game Anomen was a knight when this Terl approached...so his quest was completed.

    Ok, the mystery in TIN_MAN's case is solved.
    Terl spawned due a improper value in one of the variables, but dialog checked the quest progression and concluded that Terl shouldn't speak anything.
    Probably the same thing happened to Spudsquisher. How that happened I haven't a slightest clue.

    Just one question more. Although it looks evil, it is not.
    Have you installed anything besides official patch (ToB, TDD, unofficial fixes)?
