Walkthrough[edit]
- Talk to Ishmashell
- Ishmashell asks for your help
- You can either agree to throw him back into the sea, or you can keep him to sell to a merchant
- If you help Ishmashell, you will raise your Altruistic trait by 1
- If you keep Ishmashell, you will raise your Egotistical trait by 1
- You will get experience for completing the quest, no matter which decision you made.
- If you help Ishmashell (by throwing him back to the ocean), a Chest appears with random treasure inside.
- If you keep Ishmashell to sell to a merchant, you do not get any more rewards but you will get lots of gold when selling him
- If you keep Ishmashell and eat him raw, the character will gain a +10 water resistance bonus.
- You can also cook Ishmashell, but eating a cooked Ishmashell only gains you a disease, no resistance bonus.
Closing Entry[edit]
We kept the shell so we could sell it.
OR
We threw the shell back in the sea; it was very thankful and granted us a chest from the sea floor.
