After you have killed 'Bodhi' you can get three special books about vampyrism from a chest, one of them has a note to take them to the priest of the temple of lathander in the docks district, if i take the books to the temple, nothing happens, nothing extra appears in the dialogue window, are these books really worthless or is there really a thing you can do with them?.. just needed to know..

If you post a topic that includes spoilers, it is the best to put spoiler tag in the very title.

The books do have a role - if <font color="#3D2F1B">you have a romance (with Aerie, Jaheira, Anomen or Viconia). Bodhi turns him/her to vampire instantly, and you have to kill your mate. Now, kill the Bodhi and take her heart. Books lead you to Oghman temple where a monk points you to the Amanunator's temple. That is the Temple ruins area. Go there, find the statue behind the lettered floor, and put your partner's body and Bodhi's heart into the statue's hands. That'll bring your partner back to life.</font> That's it.

[add] And indeed Ctrl-A also works because you ''block'' all the words/pictures at the page... ;) </font>

Heh.
Of course you can, man [img]tongue.gif[/img] , I ain't invented that anyway.

Someone tried a revolution in spoilerism introducing this colourtype for spoiler-txts a while ago .. but it never caught on sadly, really liked the idea. Happy that it has a new life again, it's the best way to make spoilers optional IMHO. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I first saw it on some other forum (Bioware?), but somebody else brought it here before me (it was a month ago).
How long is the while, daan? Was it before jul 2002?

<font color=white>It is indeed a great way of covering spoilers.
Because those endless spoiler tags are annoying like this:

!!!*****SPOILERSSSSS!!!!!!!!!******!!!
|//
|//
|//
|//
|//
|//
|//
|//
|//
|//
|//
|//
|//
|//
|//

* Go on and on...

And how often is it that people forget there spoiler tags... *sigh*

Lets begin the Revolution :D </font>

This method of hiding spoilers really annoys the heck out of me. I personally have Opera set up so that color A will highlight as color B, no matter if its forground or background.

I'm not real sure :rolleyes:

[add] Something like this?

Spoiler: <font color=red> Kangaxx is no hobgoblin, but is really a Powerfull Lich/Demi Lich that can be found in the Dock District. </font>
