Some nut at the entrance to the Docks district just threw a scimitar into Aerie's head and then walked away mumbling. Is there something special about this event or the weapon itself, or should I just pawn the thing instead of carrying it around?

Thanks,
Son of Arathorn

Welcome to the Board!!

I don't believe there is anything special about the scimitar. I usually demolish the nut as soon as he starts approaching. No need to take an unwanted blow to the head. :D Go pawn it.

If you go into the temple in Waukeens promenade, he will make another entrance, the priest will tell you what his problem is.

Despite the fact he does attempt to throw a schmitar at your head, it deals 1hp of damage which I hardly think is enough to kill the poor fella. He does give his money to the temple after all!

Wow...as many times as I have been through this game and never ran into that. Maybe because I kill him every time? :D

i know about this quest but do you know that drizzt's ice scimatar is in his helm slot! Bricklbright is in his offhand and the other one is on his helm!!

Hey, I had that scimitar stuck in my weapon slot once, and couldn't get rid of it. Every time I tried it said "magic weapon in use", or something like that, and I was playing a mage. The only non dual, non multi mage in the realms that was stuck using a non magical scimitar, that I didn't even want.

Ahhh...thanks alot Jim. I never go to any of the temples except for once to initially investigate. Guess I'll have to change that policy.

No Problem......

Normally the scimitar to the head is not a problem, except you get "waylaid by bastards, and you must defend yourself". One of my guys bit it in that battle, then I raised him just so he could carry his stuff as I intended on staying at an Inn.

Well, lo and behold,as I enter the new area that guy takes a sword to the brain and dies. Then the murderer runs so I don't even get to kill him.

Moral of the Story: Don't walk around town with 1 hp.

I think that one of the times that you are waylaid, one of the items somebody drops is a short sword +2 that grants haste once a day and free action.
