OK, here’s my answer.

1. The Countess of Leyawiin throws regular if boring dinner parties.

2. Casting the spell Stark Reality counts as an assault.

3. The Sanguine Rose sounds much prettier than what it does! (Too bad it’s not a bow staff. tongue.gif)

Answer: Sanguine! I was wracking my brain trying to think of the name of this quest, but like Nocturnal and Azura I think it’s just named after the Daedric Prince.
mirocu
So obvious now.. tongue.gif
Acadian
ghastley, a special sweetroll for you - for knowing exactly the quest I was trying to avoid confusing it with.

Grits - Exactly right on all counts! Buffy knew that getting caught would have cost her knighthood. And she ever so much would have preferred that special magic chest by his shrine as a reward than a dumb staff. Cake for you, and your turn! cake.gif
Grits
Why thank you! I remember Buffy’s careful planning for that quest. happy.gif

First things first: coffee and cake for everyone! cake.gif IPB Image

Now, here are my clues for the next one:

1. This place is an eyesore, but the deal is almost too good to be true.

2. When I find that guy we shall have words.

3. Finally, a good night’s sleep. If only I could forget what I saw in the basement…

1. Benirus Manor.

2. Velwyn Benirus. And people think used car salesmen are bad, nothing on what this guy forgot to mention

3. The hidden doorway that leads to the chamber that holds the Lich that was Lorgren Benirus

Quest: Where Spirits Have Lease
Grits
Oh, and for folks who are just joining the fun (or planning ahead), these are the quests that we’ve already done:

A Knife In The Dark
The Collector
The Unfortunate Shopkeeper
Mazoga the Orc
Azura
Unearthing Mehrunes’ Razor
Infiltration
Nocturnal
The Forgotten Chests of Pale Pass
Sanguine



Cake for Callidus! Exactly right. smile.gif
Callidus Thorn
More cake! Yum! biggrin.gif

Question... Question...

1) A nice reversal of fortunes

2) Be nice to his little brothers. Those ones at any rate.

3) I'm supposed to swing this? I can barely lift it!
ghastley
Another Daedric one?

1) Reversal of fortune - Lord Drad and the Ogres.
2) Malacath's little brothers - Ogres
3) Swing that Volendrung!

So it's Malacath's quest.

What can I say? I'm a fan of warhammers, and Volendrung's just that cool biggrin.gif

Correct on all counts.

Have some cake.gif

Your turn.
ghastley
I'll try and get away from Daedric with this one.

1) I can see something up there, but I'm too short to reach. Still, I can climb on the desk, it's my house.
2) Why did he put everything way above my head? He must have been taller than me.
3) I don't care much about the jewels, but the ring was useful!

Could it be the Rosethorn Cache? The unmarked quest in the house?

1) The note you find in the bedroom.

2) I imagine this is because it's high up, and the 'he' in question being the previous owner.

3) referring to the prizes tongue.gif
ghastley
cake.gif for Rihanae!

Rosethorn Cache it is. The second clue referred to the Hourglass again being overhead after you had to climb for the scroll.
TrisRed
Woo!

i offer my cake.gif to anyone who wants it smile.gif
Callidus Thorn
Well, it's been over 24 hours and no-one's claimed it, so the cake.gif is mine. evillol.gif

*Om nom nom*

Thanks biggrin.gif

Right, a question for you all, three in fact biggrin.gif

1) Why is this all so secret?

2) A traitor?

3) All of them?
mirocu

I´m probably wrong but it sounds like the DB quest where you kill off your own members, Black Hands to be exact I think..
Callidus Thorn
I think that's a little too vague for me to say if it's right or wrong.
mirocu
Then I guess on The Purification.
Callidus Thorn
QUOTE(mirocu @ Apr 12 2014, 09:08 PM) *

And that is the correct answer.

1) Why is this all so secret?

Of course referencing that you cannot tell anyone about it, and the secret meeting with Lachance.

2) A traitor?

This one's pretty self explanatory

3) All of them?

This one's pretty much to stop it being confused with any of the other DB quests that followed.

cake.gif is all yours 'Rocu.

Thanks! biggrin.gif

I had to look it up actually because I can´t stop confusing this quest with Purification from FO3. Though it did have the same name except for the "the".. tongue.gif

Ok, here goes..

1.) I have to go look for them myself?

2.) How many did you need??

3.) Cyrodiil will be quite quiet after this.


Pretty easy I think wink.gif
Acadian
1. Well, you can't exactly buy them at an alchemical shoppe!
2. Oh, ten should do. . . initially.
3. Sadly, they don't grow back so, yes, their song - once silenced - is gone forever.

Methinks the quest is Seeking Your Roots.
mirocu
And methinks you´re 100% correct! happy.gif

It´s almost midnight here but I got a cake.gif ready for you, Acadian!
Acadian
Yum, thanks!

1. I don’t know how to make this request any simpler.
2. Well, that cave is pretty close.
3. Yes, I think I can help; I’ve had experience dealing with those who practice the dark arts.
Vital

Ooh! I know this one

1. Said by the innkeeper who gives you this quest
2. Moss Rock Cavern is your destination. Just behind the Roxey Inn.
3. The dark arts refers to necromancy

The quest is... um... Can I google the name??

I think we are an honest bunch here, so I doubt anybody would cheat. Only use it when you have a solid idea of the quest, but need to know the name of the quest.


It's been established that as long as you know what quest it is, you can look up it's name.

Right.. Just wanted to establish what I knew was enough to let me search it smile.gif

Anyway, the quest is The Gravefinder's Repose
Acadian
Great job and completely right, Vital. biggrin.gif

Here: cake.gif Your turn!
Vital
Yay, cake! biggrin.gif

1. Hope you don't suffer from sea-sickness!
2. How did they not find me?
3. The coast is clear, now can you get us back?
mirocu
I´m not really sure about the second clue, but the rest put An Unexpected Voyage in my head.. mellow.gif
Vital

Correct biggrin.gif The second clue was supposed to refer to the fact that the thieves didn't notice you were aboard smile.gif

Here ya go cake.gif
mirocu
Yay, I was right! laugh.gif

Hold on for a new question, I gotta munch away first biggrin.gif *nom-nom-nom-nom-nom-nom*


-Anyone have some coffee..? biggrin.gif No? huh.gif Awright, a new question it is.. kvleft.gif


1.) They must get away from here!

2.) I will do my part.

3.) The new top dog will fix the rest.
Grits
I’m stumped on this one! Usually I can guess the quest but not quite remember the name. I’m thinking it’s an escort quest, but the last clue tells me it’s not the one I first thought. Hmm…

*brews more coffee*
mirocu
I really managed to make it difficult this time? tongue.gif

This is a bit of a stab in the dark here, but: The battle for castle Kvatch?

Drive out the daedra

Looking for the Count

Savlian's retirement at the end of the quest?
mirocu
Maybe that fits in with the first two but I´ not sure about the third clue. Either way, it´s the wrong quest entirely.

Hint: It takes place somewhere close to Imperial City.
Callidus Thorn
Screw it.

Almost totally blind stab at the answer:

Light the Dragonfires?

Pretty much 'cos of the third clue.

*shrugs*
mirocu
Sorry, that´s incorrect too but it´s time to move on so I´ll say what it was; Misdirection smile.gif

First clue obviously is about getting rid of all the soldiers looking for the Grey Fox.

Second clue is where the PC steals the staff from the Mages Guild.

I have to admit my third clue was a bit wrong. I thought about Arch-Mage Traven ( the new top dog) sending the daedra to tell Lex to leave but as we know it´s actually Raminus Polus who does that. I apologize smile.gif

You can have the cake.gif because of my mistake, Callidus. Enjoy! happy.gif
Callidus Thorn
I actually almost went for Misdirection earlier, but the third clue threw me. I'd gotten it a little confused with Taking Care of Lex as well, which completely screwed me over on that one laugh.gif

*shrugs*

Thanks for the cake *turns back and noms cake.gif Crumbs fly everywhere*

Right, a question, and I think I'll make it an easy one.

1) Ah, the old switcheroo, eh?

2) Sneaky sneaky, want that bonus biggrin.gif

3) This'll stop that cough of yours... evillol.gif

Just don't ask what character this has its perspective written from laugh.gif

Disclaimer: Using cough for illustrative purposes.
mirocu
A little hint maybe? To get things rolling... mellow.gif

I find myself in your shoes, now.

I'd thought I'd made it a pretty easy one laugh.gif

I'll try to think of one that doesn't give it away...
ghastley
I think it's the DB quest to kill Roderick by switching his medicine for a poison.

1) The switcheroo is the bottles.
2) Usual DB "don't kill the wrong people" bonus.
3) Who knows what's really wrong with him?

I had to look up the name Bad Medecine. I always get the DB quests mixed up with their intro quests - in this case Enter the Eliminator.

Yeah, a cough was the only thing I could think of that would get the right implication biggrin.gif

Anyway, Bad Medicine it is.

All yours!
ghastley
Well let's try this one.

1) He's staying at the inn until his research notes turn up.
2) Oooh Shiny!
3) Notes for bottles.
Acadian
1. Lithnilian lamenting his lost notes at the Imperial Bridge Inn.
2. His research is on living Welkynd stones! Not sure I have the stones for that, but I’ll give it a try.
3. Although gold would have been better, I guess a reward of potions for the recovered notes was fair enough.

I think the quest is ‘No Stone Unturned’.
ghastley
cake.gif where it's due.

I noticed that they used the same quest name in Skyrim for something completely different. I just had that added to my Journal, and it made me think of this one.
Acadian
Thanks for the cake!

1. I met someone in southern Cyrodiil who showed me his collection and asked for help in adding to it.
2. I was able to find some clues up in the Imperial City.
3. The clues led me to a brave knight, forever locked in combat.

If it´s not Tears of the Saviour where you go to Frostfire Glade, I´m gonna break something.. tongue.gif
Acadian
mirocu is correct!

1. S'drassa, of the Leyawiin MG collects crystals.
2. Special frost salts to access the glade, and a book with more background can be found in the IC.
3. Sir Garridan is forever locked (frozen) in combat within the glade.

Your cake: cake.gif

Yum! biggrin.gif

So, lets give it a go again smile.gif

1.) Wow, this stuff wasn´t expensive.

2.) Many dislikes because of it...

3.) A dodgy helper makes this possible
King Of Beasts
Ooh!


Can I play??
