This
quest is given by Roshawna Rhorer, a Vah Shir in Katta Castellum (the
palace/cathedral)
Roshawna Rhorer says 'A pleasure
to speak with you Venture! You appear to be a
foreigner to Katta Castellum as
well. I hope your reasons for visiting this noble
city are more leisurely than my
own. In addition to my normal duties as a Shar Vahl
Emissary to Katta Castellum there
is the issue of the [tormented vah shir] in
Tenebrous Mountains that must be
dealt with.
Roshawna Rhorer says 'Recently the
skeletons of Vah Shir have been spotted
wandering the Tenebrous Mountains
ferociously and blindly attacking the living.
There are legends among my people
that speak of Vah Shir warriors that were
murdered dishonorably in their
sleep by a traitor allied with [dark spirits]. The
spirits of these murdered warriors
become trapped in their decaying mortal shells
for often many years before they
are driven mad by the despair, rage, and torturous
experience. When this negative
spirit energy becomes strong enough the corpses rise
and attempt to slaughter all that
crosses their path in their state of eternal
rage. Spirits tormented in such
a manner must be assisted so that they may finally
find peace in death. Will you [help
the souls] find peace?
Roshawna Rhorer says 'Not all spirits
that can be called upon by those who are in
touch with the spirit realms are
of good intentions. There are spirits who seek to
destroy and corrupt. These dark
spirits are best avoided and kept from manifesting
their influence on the mortal realms.
Unfortunately the foolish or the weak willed
are tempted by their promises of
power. Most who deal with the dark spirits are
shortly driven mad by the spirits
influence or destroyed by the very powers they
were promised. There are tales
however of powerful shaman capable of harnessing and
controlling the dark spirits and
their evil powers of corruption. These wicked
traitors to the Vah Shir teachings
are called [Rakshasa].
Roshawna Rhorer says 'Like I said
the Rakshasa are spoken of only in old tales.
Whether they truly existed or not
can not be proven for sure and the elder
spiritist insist they are nothing
more than creatures of fiction. If there truly is
a Rakshasa alive today it would
be a powerful creature indeed. They are said to no
longer have a physical body of
their own, having traded it to a powerful evil
spirit so that it may enter the
mortal realm in exchange for dark gifts. Because
the Rakshasa no longer has a physical
body of its own it must take the forms of
other creatures and can not be
destroyed with conventional weapons.
Roshawna Rhorer says 'The only way
for a tormented undead vah shir to be put to
rest is to destroy its body and
take its skull to Shar Vahl where our spiritualists
can perform a ritual to cleanse
and free the imprisoned spirit. Fill this chest
with skulls and return it to me
and I will make the preparations for it to be sent
to Shar Vahl. The spiritualists
there have just recently received word of the
situation and will be prepared
to perform the proper rituals when the time comes.
The box she hands you has eight
slots; kill tormented vah shir in tenebrious
mountains to get their skulls.
the skulls are no drop. the spawn time seems to be
2-3 hours and random. combine the
skulls inside the box and turn it into roshawna.
Roshawna Rhorer purrs an incantation
and waves her claws back and forth over the
chest. The runes inscribed on the
chest and iron bands begin to softly glow with a
golden light. 'You have done a
great service for these poor souls. I have sent for
a courier to come for the chest
of skulls but he is quite late in his arrival. I
will keep it safe until the courier
arrives.
a vah shir courier says 'Sorry for
the delay mistress, I ran into a spot of trouble
on the way here. I am prepared
to deliver your crate to the spiritists back home.
Roshawna Rhorer says 'I hope your
journey back to Shar Vahl is less eventful.
Please make haste, the spiritists
must receive this crate as soon as possible.
a vah shir courier tucks the crate
of skulls under his arm and nods to Roshawna.
Suddenly the courier begins to
shake, his fur stands on end, and his eyes glaze
over expressionlessly. The courier
runs for the gates of Katta Castellum with an
otherworldly howl echoing in his
wake.
Roshawna Rhorer says 'Stop him!
Stop the courier! An evil spirit has possessed him!
He must not escape with those skulls!
Catch him and bring back that crate of
skulls!
kill the vah shir courier and 8
skeletons spawn:
a vah shir cou's corpse slams the
crate of skulls against the ground with unnatural
force as he falls jarring it open.
With his dying breath the possessed courier
mutters a dark incantation and
the skulls burst from the chest sprouting new
skeletal forms.
loot the crate from the courier
and combine the skulls of the 8 skeletons that
spawn in it.
turn in the box with the combined
reanimated tormented vah shir skulls to Roshawna
and get the box back with a note.
u take this to spiritist roleko.
Spiritist Roleko says 'I require
both the crate of tortured vah shir skulls and the
report from Roshawna. Spiritist
Roleko says 'It was wise of Roshawna to send you to
me instead of risk bringing something
so tainted by the dark spirits within the
walls of Shar Vahl. I shall begin
the ritual immediately. What is that?! Look!
There is a grimling heading this
way followed by what appear to be grimling undead.
Defend me while I perform the ritual.
Give me the head of that grimling and the
skulls of those undead!
this was a very hard fight, i died
in it; turning in it spawns 1 grimling and 3
skeletons; they hit around 130
or so each and i could not root the grimling (which
is why i died)
Spiritist Roleko says 'I require
the head of the possessed grimling and the skulls
of the reanimated grimlings. Spiritist
Roleko says 'I require the head of the
possessed grimling and the skulls
of the reanimated grimlings. Spiritist Roleko
says 'I require the head of the
possessed grimling and the skulls of the reanimated
grimlings. Spiritist Roleko says
'I am grateful for your assistance. I will be able
to complete the rest of the ritual
without danger, the spirits in the skulls have
been calmed. Please take this report
of occurrences to Spiritist Cholsa in Shar
Vahl.
Ok, there is a typo here, it is
Scribe cholsa not spiritist cholsa as written, had
to take a leap of faith on that.
Scribe Cholsa says 'So it seems
there is more truth to the legends of the Rakshasa
than is commonly believed. I recall
much of the tales of the wicked shaman who sold
their souls and bodies to the dark
spirits. There is a ritual that must be
performed to force the Rakshasa
to fully materialize in our realm so that it may be
slain. I will write down the instructions
for the ritual but the [components] I'm
afraid may be difficult to obtain.
Scribe Cholsa says 'The legends
instruct that the ritual requires an Amulet of
Golden Rays crafted by a worshiper
of the sun, Charcoal that burns with a Black
Flame, and the Brain of a creature
that can Leech the Thoughts of others. If you
manage to procure these items please
take them with the instructions I have
provided to Spiritist Roleko at
the Grimling Forest Outpost. The Rakshasa shall be
summoned and slain there away from
the citizens of Shar Vahl.
Ok, turn in the note, the ash, the
amulet, and the brain to spiritis roleko and it
spawns a mob that hits ~145 he
wasnt too hard. no other mobs assist him. he drops a
his head
turn that head into spiritist roleko
and u get the shield thats posted below (25 ac
20 wis 8 cha 12 sv magic) p.s.
it looks like a shield u might see in cat city--lion
on silver
Ingrediants to get that u need to
farm (theyre all No drop btw) skulls from
tormented vah shir in tenebrious
mountains thought leech brain from thought leaches
