Statue. ;)

Hmmm... There's no way to steal the statue without turning them hostile? Are you sure?

The other issue I am more fuzzy about, but if memory serves me well... it is not alignment, but reputation that determines which quest you do.
That is confirmed. [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Checked it, and found out the item is named, "Statuette of Lathander". Dang... missed an 'e'. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

As for the "can we avoid flipping off the PoLathander while stealing their statuette"... I have not heard of any success stories yet, mainly due to the damnable undisarmable alarm trap. :mad:

Statuette?! Sheesh... English and French never sounded more similar! :rolleyes:

Actually, they are both English and they have different meanings, or rather, different usages.

statue noun [C]
an object made from a hard material, especially stone or metal, to look like a person or animal:
Quote:

statuette noun [C]
a statue which is small enough to stand on a table or shelf
To say that it is a statue is correct, but if you say that it is a statuette, you are informing the person that it is a small figurine, and thus, convey much more accurate information about the object.

ahh that's what the statuette I lifted from them is for (my F/T/M has very light fingers and got the quest for the talonites)

I can confirm that it is reputation, not alignment, that determines the target Mae'Var sends you for, as my LG paladin (rep. of 9) was told to rip off the Lathendites.

<font color=white> Aren't the Talos followers known as Tallassans? and Lathander followers Lathanders... [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] ? (I base this on nothing but... I recall something that I saw a few months ago) </font>

I have been able to steal from the Lathanderites and not have them eternally angry at me. The secret is... Well, I wont tell you the secret cause then it would no longer be a secret!

If you are going to rob thieves, you send in a thief. If you are going to rob clerics... Well, like deals with like.

? You do not happen to mean Sanctuary do you? Last I recall, somebody did try to use that tactic but the Priests still got mad at him... ...

I too managed to get the stauette of lathander without turning them hostile (I know coz it's still in my sack at the Copper Coronet), unfortunately I can't add anything clever, coz I have no recollection of how I actually achieved it. I DON'T think it was related to sanctuary.
