Theft to Order

Quest: Theft to Order

Location: Thunderstone: Interiors

Questgiver: Alice Broadhand

Alignment score values: max 3 for this quest

Thunderstone: Interiors The second quest that Alice will offer to the PC is to recover a unicorn horn from the priest Magnus in the Shrine of Tempus. This quest is only available after the PC has returned to town with Edgar. Alice Broadhand will approach the PC to threaten a priest and extract from them a unicorn's horn that was allegedly stolen from its rightful owner and sold to the priest. The reward for the horn's return is 800gp.

? If Kathryn Hawklin is with the PC, she will reveal that Lord Huntcrown had said to her he coveted this item. The PC can now confront Huntcrown (see Ride Like a Centaur )

? The PC (either before or after getting the item) can threaten/persuade Alice and discover that Lord Huntcrown was the owner of the horn (see Ride Like a Centaur)

Thunderstone: Shrine of Tempus The PC can confront Magnus over the item. Depending on how hostile a stance the PC takes, there are a number of possible results: ? The PC intimidates Magnus until they get the item. They will need to resist Magnus? counter intimidation. ? The PC fails to intimidate Magnus, in which case they are left empty handed. ? The PC can talk to Magnus, discovering why Magnus has the item, and postulate they might be the next hero of Tempus. Magnus will offer to sell the horn, but the PC will need to offer an adequate amount (Appraise will help get the exact price, else it?s a guessing game). If the PC succeeds in buying the item, Magnus will suggest taking it to the smith for reforging items (see Weapon of a True Knight)

Thunderstone: Interiors After visiting Magnus, the PC may choose to return to Alice Broadhand:

? To deliver the horn and receive payment.

? The PC (either before or after getting the item) can threaten/persuade Alice and discover that Lord Huntcrown was the original owner of the horn.

Alternatively the PC may wish to take the horn to the smith and use it to reforge an item.

Thunderstone: Huntcrown House Alternatively the PC may instead go and see Lord Marvin Huntcrown at his residence, as long as the PC knows Huntcrown was originally the owner of the horn/involved in hunting.

? The PC can then threaten Huntcrown over illegal hunting and be paid off, get the oath needed for Ride Like a Centaur quest, get some jousting tips and/or report Huntcrown to the Crown Office.

? Sell the horn to Huntcrown for the oath required for the Centaur quest, or for gold and/or several tips on how to defeat famous jousters. Note that confronting Huntcrown updates the Ride Like a Centaur quest, not this one, except for actually giving the horn to Huntcrown.
