Oh, and I have pickpocketed Renal plenty of times, and you cannot get the boots from him that way. You have to kill him to get them.

What is the difference between siding with Bodhi and teh shadow thieves?

Taking bodhi's side nets you an extra item. However, you do not get as much experience.

The difference is mostly RP-related. Good chars are likely to side with the lesser of two evils. And intelligent chars are more likely to side with a POWERFUL organization that spans the Sword Coast and perhaps more... I just don't like the fact that you can come into conflict with the Thieves and never really have serious problems with midnight assasinations and whatnot....

I wish that the saying "Nobody crosses the Shadow Thieves and lives!" was true. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

As do I.
Of course, I also love the fact that Shadow Thieves who lean towards treason also say that, which is poetic.
Vague spoilers.

"You paint a pretty picture, but... Someone's listening! Go! We'll take care of these spies!"
Shadow Thief: No one crosses the Shadow Thieves and lives!
Mara: Damn straight!
Mara- Casts Power Word: Kill
Shadow Thief- Death


Someday, someday, I'll make a mod that will allow you to side with the Harpers instead of having to choose between the Thieves or Improbability

True, but working for the Cowled Wizards should be an option as well. I'm also trying to figure out a way to rationalize working for the Radiant Heart, but they're so Lawful that they would only work above the table, which essentially means....working for the Cowled Wizards.

Working for the Temple of Talos might be an option, since breaking open an Asylum full of insane magic-users would definitely swing the balance towards Chaos.

[Illumina Drathiran'ar]

SixOfSpades, now that I think about it, you might be where I got the idea. Did we discuss this when making the thief mod? And the Cowled Wizards hiring you to invesitgate the goings-on in their hold... Or perhaps it was on the board.. Been a while. But that's probably where I got the idea.

[SixOfSpades]

Maybe, maybe not. What with the current dearth of options (hey, at least there are more ways to Spellhold than there are Evil Thieves), anybody could have come up with this plan on their own.
