Well I have searched the forum for info but I just can't find a straight answer.So if you could enlighten me I would greatly apreciate it!
Is it possible for a single class thief(Evil alignment)to side with bodhi AND to have Edwin?

Yes I dont see why not, Edwin is evil. Do you mean Keldorn by any chance?

Thiefs can't work for Bodhi, she wont trust you. Sorry.

I have not done this yet, but I think it will work:

1) Do the Thief stronghold quest (Mae'var's guild).

2) Take Edwin.

3) Go back to Renal and turn down the guild.

4) Take the gold & short sword. Go talk to Bodhi.


-- Nifft, fingers crossed

Thanks Nifft!I'll try it!
Has anyone tried this stuff and has a definitive answer?

Among the party NPCs, only Keldorn will outright refuse to work for Bodhi. Edwin is suspicious, but not unwilling. After all, it may lead to some powerful artifacts that can help him.

Thanx Fable,however my problem is that I have heard that Bodhi will not take a thief by some while others say that being a thief is no real problem.
I would like to hear from someone who has played with a thief and got worked with bodhi.
Edwin enters the issue because you can only get him by doing renal bloodscalps quest...

Drat--wish I could help you, but I've only played mage and fighter kits in the game. :( I do know that as a mage, I never had a problem with getting Edwin and joining Bodhi: as someone else suggested, it's simply a matter of doing the Bloodscalp quest before choosing between Bodhi and the Shadow Thieves.

Well thanx anyway.I shall be waiting for another day or so and if no response does come up I'll do as Nifft said.

This may help. It's from Dan Simpson's walkthrough, and I trust Dan implicitly:

"Also, if the main character is a Thief, then Bodhi won't offer you a job at all."
