Schlumpsha the Sewer King (Spoiler)

Sir Heinrich Godfrie IV · 07-25-2002, 07:55 AM

I have only explored the sewers once or twice during all of my various campaigns. Mainly because I hate the narrow passage ways and all the Carrion Crawlers and Phase Spiders that you run into. Now I was getting a little bored with all the same-old same-old that happens above ground in the city. So decided to give the sewers another try. I was near the Flaming Fist HQ when decided to plunge down. Well, low and behold I ran smack into a fella (actually a blob of slime) named 'Schlumpsha the Sewer King', along with his goonies. Now I'm guessing that he's a very influential and infamous member of the underground society, for two reasons. First, he calls himself "the Sewer King", and lastly, he knew ALOT about me and my background.

Now I guess I would like to know if this Blob (which I have killed), is the source of all the mysterious deaths that Scar is worrying about? Or do I need to continue hunting for the real culprit(s)?

I can't remember that well, but I think the murders are caused by a man-orc, who treats the carrion crawlers as pets. You'll know when you find him, beacuse you'll see bodies littered everywhere.

It is an ogre-mage who is responsible - the easiest way to find him is to go down into the sewers through the entry right behind Sorcerous Sundries. Remember to get the ruby ring for scar.

Believe it or not, Scar actually DID advise you to start your search in the east sector of the city; thereby, making the culprit of the crimes almost impossible to miss. And yes, it is an Ogre Mage.

P.S. Anyone ever actually have trouble with Ogre-mages at this point in the game, or were you, like me, remembering harder fights you've had with a pack of gibberlings?

Scar said that the tracks leading into the sewer openings suggested "some kind of many-legged creature." And, of course, Mustard Jellies don't have legs, even if they are Sewer Kings.

The Ogre-Mage was a doddle, but by that stage of the game, what isn't?

Six, true, I still remember when I was first attacked by golems, in BG2, in Irenicus's Dungeon in Athkatla. I almost had a heartattack untill I saw how my party completely tore them up.

Thanks everyone.
However, I'm still a little flabergasted as to why this "Sewer King" knew so much about my PC's past and future. Is he an element of a separate quest that I have yet to discover? Or is he just another part of the woodwork within this game?
Also, I haven't found this Quenash lady yet who supposedly holds this...(Spoiler)

... Cloak of Balduran. Now I understand that she is a lady of ill-repute, so it would make good sense to look for her at night. But, what I really want to know is whether she is above ground or below? Nothing more, nothing less. I just want to know if she is above or below. Thanks again.

Quenesh lady is below ground and you can reach her either through the sewers, the blushing mermaid or the Iron Throne basement [img]smile.gif[/img]

Schlumpsha's origins are never revealed.....Perhaps he was a psionic or a Diviner that was slowly polymophed into a Mustard Jelly. He seems happy with the result, I sure wouldn't be.

Firestormalpha · 07-26-2002, 06:01 PM

Schlumpsa could also be a mage's left over desert gone bad, but then again who knows.
