Requirements

Mission 2-10:

Method

Go to Julius in the Trade Quarter and talk with him to start the quest.

For missions 6 to 10, if you do the quest "in one go", it could be helpful to have two friends keep clear the path from the boat on Vengoth to the entrance of the castle in the mountains, because you will have to walk this way about a dozen times and the monsters on the way could be really really annoying, depending on your level and walking speed.

Mission 01: Gaining Trust

Note: if you have completed The Inquisition Quest - Mission 3: Vampire Hunt, you will skip this mission and instead start at Blood Brothers Quest - Mission 02: Bad Eggs.

Wear a Garlic Necklace and talk to Julius in the Yalahar Trade Quarter (here). He will tell you that a Garlic Necklace is not enough proof that you are against the vampires, and will ask you to make Garlic Bread. Obtain Holy Water, Flour and a Bulb of Garlic; you can buy Holy Water from Henricus, obtain Bunch of Wheat from either Donald McRonald or by harvesting it and grind it into Flour, and a Bulb of Garlic from either Brasith (Ankrahmun) or Jezzara (Ab'Dendriel). Now use the Holy Water on the Flour to obtain a Lump of Holy Water Dough and then use the Lump of Holy Water Dough on the Bulb of Garlic to obtain a Lump of Garlic Dough. Use this on an Oven to make Garlic Bread; an oven can be found above Julius. When you have done this, eat it in front of Julius to prove yourself to him.

Mission 02: Bad Eggs

Julius wants you to find possible vampire suspects by tricking the citizens of Yalahar into eating Garlic Cookies and recording the names of those with suspicious reactions. To bake Garlic Cookies, obtain Holy Water, a Bulb of Garlic, Flour and a Baking Tray. Use the Flour on the Holy Water, then use the dough on the Bulb of Garlic. Next use this on the Baking Tray to obtain ?. Finally, use tray on the Oven to bake 12 Garlic Cookies (you only need 5); you can find an Oven directly above Julius.

When you have the Garlic Cookies, ask the citizens of Yalahar if they would like a Garlic Cookie. The NPCs you must ask are:

When you have confirmed the names of the Suspected Vampire NPCs, go back to Julius and report about your mission.

Mission 03: His True Face

Julius wants you to cast the spell "alori mort" on the Suspected Vampire NPCs. Say hi, and while facing them directly say the spell. You need only go to Armenius, the head vampire. There's a chance that Armenius show you his true face, and will teleport you to the sewers. If this happens you will receive the achievement His True Face and face Armenius. This is a rare achievement which is supposedly obtainable through another method, but this is undiscovered.

When you have casted "alori mort" on Armenius, report back to Julius.

Mission 04: The Dark Lands

Go to Harlow at the Trade Quarter docks and ask for passage to Vengoth. Search Vengoth for at least 5 strange spots and use Julius' Map to mark them. Julius requires the castle, but will accept any other 4. If you mark more than 5 spots then Julius will offer an experience reward for each additional spot, up to a maximum of 7500 experience for all 8.

Since the Vengoth Castle is required, you might as well do all 3 on the mountain, meaning only 2 on the surface. To reach the Vengoth Castle, go up the mountain at the south-east of Vengoth and follow the mountain, entering Strange Whirls.

The 8 unusual spots are:

The bottomless pit (a Pitch Black Gap) here
The bone circle (6 Bone Totems) here
The haunted ruin (small building with NPC A Wandering Soul) here
The lonely grave (Grave with inscription: You read: Shut your eyes Kiss me goodbye And sleep) here
The miraculously burning trees (some Dead Trees burning) here

On the mountains:

The old shrine here.
The castle garden here.
(required) The castle entrance here.

Once this is done go to Julius and ask for another mission.

Mission 05: Into the Castle

This mission is split up into several smaller missions. The first one is to get a Blood Crystal. Julius tells you to ask around in Yalahar, this is how some NPCs respond to "blood crystal":


	Player: blood crystal Znozel: Oooooooooh shiny shiny shiny shiny!! Give me!! Redward: Huh? I think my master had one. But I really don't feel like going back and checking this for you. Sorry! Morpel: No, I don't sell that, sorry. Serafin: This is a fruit store. No slaughterhouse. Soilance: No, haven't heard about that. Lisander: No, that's wine I'm drinking. Pugwah: Big red crystal. Some people talk about it in my tavern. But strange people those are! Karith: I'm not interested in stuff like that. Captain Cookie: That doesn't sound really tasty. Lorietta: Ehehehe! A blood crystal? You must be a fool looking for one. I like fools. Why don't you check the cultist hideout in the magician quarter? Palimuth: What would you need a blood crystal for? Maybe a magician knows where to find one. Timothy: Oh yes, I heard about a gem like that. Nowadays they seem incredibly hard to acquire. The explorer's society doesn't own one, else I'd help you. Dorbin: I agree, that would be a nice decoration object. Unfortunately I don't sell them. Oiriz: Haha, they are not meant to be owned by ordinary humans. Sorry, but no. Gree Dee: If I had one, I could charge a fortune for it... <gets a dreamy look> Chuckles: Oooh, you're playing with fire. <chuckles> Vincent: What's that supposed to be? Anyway, I don't sell it. Zarak: A true warrior doesssn't need jewellery. Maris: No, thanks. Tony: Sorry... but uhm... please move on, I actually shouldn't chat with you. Hal: What the h... heck are you talking about? Bruce: I have nothing to say about that topic. Reed: It's nice talking to you, but honestly, you give me the creeps. So please decide what you want and move on. Tamoril: If I had one, I'd surely add it to my treasure and not give it to you. Tamara: Oh! That cursed stone! I know about it, but I can't tell you anything. Evil gems like that shouldn't be passed around, only a crazy fool would do that. Ethan: Tamara mentioned it sometime ago. Barry: This is of no importance to me right now. Oliver: I'll tell you that story another time, but not now. Sorry. Peter: Listen, I don't get paid enough to chat with citizens. Move on. Armenius: If you want blood, go kill a pig. Harlow: What the heck, stop bothering me with your questions.

Conclusion: Lorietta's hint is most useful. Although Tamara hints you should talk to Lorietta and Palimuth hints to the Magician Quarter.

Go and check out the cultist area in the Magicians Quarter. When you go down to the -3 floor of the research center building, open the chest inside the small quest room. You will find the Blood Crystal near .

Once this is done go to Julius and ask for another mission.

Julius will tell you that you need to charge the crystal with the energy from someone who has lost everything. Go to the Wandering Soul on Vengoth and tell him "blood crystal". Now you have a charged crystal.

Go back to Julius and ask for another mission.

For this next part of the quest you need 4 people (total) who are on the same mission to continue. Make sure you have exactly 4 people on the same part otherwise you will have to wait until others reach this point in the quest. The blood crystal is charged only for the time being. You see it sparkling as long as it's charged. So in case you have to wait some longer to find the members for this part of the quest, you may need to recharge the crystal. For this just go back to the Wandering Soul, say "hi", "mission", "blood crystal" and you can continue with the quest.

Each of the 4 people will need their charged blood crystal for the next part of this mission. You must then find 4 strange carvings (which are partly buried), each player stands on one of the carvings. Two of them are on the ground floor, one near the castle and another near the poison shrine, right and left to the entry. As soon as the 4th member tapped onto his spot all will get teleported into the corridor of the castle. Inside you won't have to fear any monster. Once you have been there, go back to Julius and report your mission.

Mission 06: A Black History

Your next mission is to find any information on the castle. Therefore you should check the castle library.

Enter main hall and under a small carpet there is a secret trapdoor where you enter, use the carpet once to show the trapdoor and use the trapdoor to go down.

Mission 08: Lersatio

In this mission you must also find and kill one of the vampire lord brothers Lersatio. Get to the top of 3rd tower (like you did before).

Use that door and keep walking again, you will find the NPC A Fading Memory on the top of the 5th tower. On the upper floor is the boss room. Talk to the npc in order to get a Ghost's Tear which you need to summon the last boss using the Ghost's Tear on the vampire lord's statue.

When you have killed the last of the four Vampire Lords use a blessed wooden stake on the remains of the vampire lord in order to obtain The Dust of Arthei. Go back with the dust and report to Julius and you will obtain a Vampiric Crest which can be traded with Palimuth for outfit addon.

Additional Missions

Blood Goblet

This "mission" isn't given by Julius. It's more of a treasure you can find when exploring the castle. In Arthei's tower there's a quest door that leads out onto the courtyard between the towers. After defeating all the vampire lords you can open this door. Out on the courtyard you can find a Blood Goblet inside a dead skeleton (south of the Sun Clock).

Missing diary pages

After handing in Marziel's Diary I (Book) during mission 6 Julius wants you to bring any missing diary pages you can find to him so that he can piece together the entire story. In each of the towers you can find a few diary pages inside several containers. You will get 1000 exp for each diary page you give to Julius. A total of six pages has been confirmed to exist; however, if you say "diary" to Julius after giving all six he still asks you whether you have found any other pages. This is likely to be a mistake by Cipsoft, though, as Julius claims he knows the entire story after you hand in Marziel's Diary VI (Book), but then tells you there are still pages missing after you hand in Marziel's Diary VII (Book).

Marziel's Diary II (Book) can be found in a Pile of Bones (Object) underneath a Pile of Bones here.

Marziel's Diary III (Book) can be found in a Chest of Drawers (Object) here.

Marziel's Diary IV (Book) can be found in a Bookcase (Object) here.

Marziel's Diary V (Book) can be found in a Bookcase (Object) here.

Marziel's Diary VI (Book) can be found in a Bookcase (Object) here.

Marziel's Diary VII (Book) can be found in a Stone Coffin (Quest) here.
