How to start quest[edit]
Talk to either Marius or Ninnius at the Cyseal Harbor Warehouse, in the yard outside the warehouse (SE part of the warehouse)
Walkthrough[edit]
- Talk to one of the two guards in the Cyseal Harbor Warehouse: Marius or Ninnius
- Tell them your opinion: Either that the Charmed She-Orc is really in love with Ninnius and that it would benefit the Legion to keep her alive because perhaps she has information; or, tell them that the love potion is nonsense and that the Charmed She-Orc must be killed
- You get Romantic Trait +1 if you say the love potion worked
- You get Pragmatic Trait +1 if you have the Charmed Orc killed
- If you had the guards keep the Charmed She-Orc alive, come back later to complete the quest and get an achievement. Otherwise, if you had the Charmed Orc killed, the quest completes on the spot.
Dialog[edit]
Marius
Ah! Who better than a proven orc-crusher to convince my dumbbell of a friend here that orcs are predators, not pets.
Ninnius
Enough of that! I know how dangerous an orc CAN be, but this one has been reformed! Anyone can see that she's completely docile, but my prejudiced friend here still wants to kill her.
1. Tell me about yourselves.
Marius
Maybe before the great orc raid we had time to indulge Ninnius' idiotic obsessions, but now we're needed at our posts. I can hardly believe I've been wasting time protecting an orc when I should be running them through.
Ninnius
Excuse my friend's violent outbursts. He hasn't enjoyed a woman's touch in quite some time now. It makes him a bit... edgy.
Marius
Your woman's touch is less of a loving caress and more of a claw shanked brutally through the throat. I'll take my chances as a bachelor, thanks.
2. What’s this about a charmed orc?
Ninnius
My friend here and I were patrolling outside the city walls when who did I see creeping along the shore but this lovely orcish lady! For a brief second as long as eternity, we locked eyes.
Perhaps confused by the butterflies in her stomach, she sprang up and began running, claws bared, toward Marius. Fortunately for him, I had the presence of mind to ignore my sword and instead adroitly fling my pouch of trinkets toward her.
A vial of love potion shattered over her head, and when she turned to face me she became instantly enamoured!
I'm sure she must have been compelled to join the orcish army under some kind of duress. A lady with such a sweetly savage manner would never willingly join up with those vicious marauders.
Marius
Ha! I can assure you, there wasn't a hint of sweetness in those murderous eyes when she lunged at my throat. She may be confined here for now, but who's telling when she'll escape and who she'll rip to shreds?
3. Let me tell you what I think...
Marius
You see? He'd believe it was noon at midnight if he read it on a printed pamphlet. Please tell me you can reason with him... or ditch reason and use your sword to save him from his murderous "darling".
1. She's got to be put down. If this love potion is as dodgy as it sounds, she could come to her vicious senses at any time.
Marius
Glad to hear I'm not the only one with common sense around here! I'll do the honours myself!
Ninnius
No! She's harmless! Please!
2. Let her live! If that potion were truly worthless, it wouldn't have been able to charm her in the first place. In this docile state, she may prove to be a source of valuable information.
Ninnius
Bravo! I trust not only the potion, but my scaly sweetheart in and of herself.
Marius
You're going to regret this. We're all going to regret this...
4. A love potion! Tell me more.
Ninnius
Ah, I've always had an amateur interest in all things alchemical. When I read in an esteemed periodical from the wizards of Yuthul Gor about an amazing opportunity that could change my life, I had to act fast or lose the once-in-a-lifetime deal!
I sent away for their world-famous love potion, available for a limited time only, and it has worked exactly as promised!
Marius
You see what a fool my friend has been? Spending all his cash on snake oil and bringing a temporarily tranquilised monster into our midst to boot.
Ninnius
What kind of monster would lie in a published advertisement? I'm sure the effects of the potion will be everlasting, as printed.
5. I'll take my leave.
