Statue.

Quote:

...from the Temple of Lathander. Which understandably makes them upset for ever and ever.

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.

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

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

Quote:

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.

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)

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.
