the spoiler was no problem here, thanks for the info

he's a no good cheating NPC, start's the game with an item which let's him memorise one extra spell per level, which can't be removed...

So he's got the potental to cast enough spell's to make a sorc turn green, well maybe not, but anyway, he's a great NPC to have tag along. has some great lines.

Something else does happen to Edwin as well as what was discussed previously in the spoiler. A nice little bonus that alot of people don't seem to notice...

Would you mind telling us with a spoiler tag on? I've never noticed anything really.

I think Zarr might be referring to the first little "tweak" that scroll gives to Edwin, before the lady Edwin incident. If not, well, Zarr I've never noticed anything else either.

Okay here's what Edwin also gains
* EDWIN NETHER SCROLL SPOILER*

Once he reads the scroll and transforms into a woman he gains a quite big bonus to his lore. The bonus to his lore even stays if he is transformed back into a man. I find Edwin is very good at identifying items after this at about level 25 he could identify +3 weapons for me even though my other mages couldn't.

Nickzilla · 04-19-2004, 08:18 AM

So is it lore or INT which lets you identify items?

teardropmina · 04-19-2004, 08:20 AM

lore

drew_jarvie · 04-19-2004, 09:38 AM

But int and wisdom give bonuses to lore IIRC.
