This quest consists of two parts. 5 short daily tasks constitute the first part and 6 missions make up the second part.
Short Tasks
Method
Find the house of Eclesius (here). He is looking for a new assistant. You will have to do some missions and tasks for Eclesius. Most ingredients you need can be found around Thais or bought in Venore.
In order to get inside Eclesius' house, you need to use the Magic Door either in his house (here) or in the Adventurer's Guild (here).
To start the quest just talk Eclesius, he will ask you if you can assist him on a few tasks, accept his offer and ask him about the tasks. When you first accept the offer to be his assistant he will give you 100 experience. Choose one of the five tasks he tells you in order to start it (Sweep, Polish, Feed, Exterminate or Prevent).
This is an easy task. Eclesius asks you to sweep every piece of furniture he has in his living room, the room behind the sealed door and his bedroom. Just be careful not to use the broom on the Fire Basin or it will burn up and disappear. You don't need to sweep the goldfish bowl, the crystal ball and chimney.
Reward: 100 gp and 150 experience points.
Eclesius needs you to feed his fish. To do so, you have to prepare the correct recipe. The ingredients can be found on a note pinned on the wall above the Goldfish Bowl (Object). These are:
Once you get all the items' go to his lab downstairs, place them all on the Magical Blending Device, and pull the lever right next to it. You will get the Fish Flakes. The fish flakes disappear when you use them, so you have to make new ones every day you do this task.
Use the Fish Flakes on the Goldfish Bowl (Object) and report back to Eclesius. The fish flakes will disappear when using them, so you need to make new ones every day you perform this task.
Note that in order to reach the lab you have to start either the sweep task or the prevent task too. Otherwise you aren't able to pass the sealed door. Also note that the reward of this task may not be more than the cost considering the value of Honeycombs on some worlds.
Eclesius needs to polish his crystal ball, but he can't remember the recipe for the polish. He asks you to go into his lab downstairs and find the recipe. It is pinned to the wall above the oven.
Eclesius wants you to kill the threeBats that are In his attic. You just need to go there, open the door and kill them. DO NOT kill the Cat or Eclesius will not let you perform this task for 30 days.
Reward: 200 gp and 250 experience points.
Note that the reward of this task may not be more than the cost considering the value of Wolf Paws on some worlds.
Eclesius says that he conducted a small ritual and that there is now a demon uberoverlord in his cellar. He needs your help to keep the cage it's kept in locked and its lock oiled, reinforce the wooden barriers and play some music to calm the demon.
First, you need to make some magical oil. The list of ingredients is on a note pinned to the wall behind the empty pot. Get a Vial of Oil, a Skull, a Red Apple and a Wolf Paw. Ask Eclesius about the magical oil, he'll take the ingredients and give you a Flask with Magical Oil. Ask Eclesius about the key of magic, he'll say it's somewhere inside his lab. Use the Barrel and you'll get a Magical Key.
The magical oil disappears when you use it, so you have to make it anew every day you do this task.
Use the oil on the closed door in the cellar.
Use the Magical Key on the cage's closed door in the cellar and a Wooden Hammer on the wooden planks right next to the cage's closed door. There are four of them.
Then stand right next to the cage's closed door and play the Lyre.
When you ask Eclesius for a mission, he will tell you that he wants a new hat. You are the one to get it for him. Head to Venore and find the Dress for Success Warehouse. Speak to Irmana , upstairs. She can make three hats: a Pink Hat, a Wooden Hat and a Dark Hat. The one that fits Eclesius' requirements is the Dark Hat. Before Irmana can make this hat, she needs you to get a Minotaur Leather and two Bat Wings. It's best to bring them before you talk to Irmana. Also, now might be a good time to buy Sandals for the next mission, but they can be found in a quest chest at Sam's shop for free. When you retrieved the Dark Hat from Irmana, head back to Eclesius.
After asking Eclesius for another mission, he will tell you that his Sandals are enormously smelly. He asks you to find him a new pair. If you didn't buy these in Venore, you can find them at a quest chest near Sam in Thais. Get a pair and show them to Eclesius. He will mark them with his name, then he will say they need to be disinfected in boiling water. Go downstairs, use the sandals on the large cauldron and return to Eclesius. He will tell you that he wants to make the sandals immune to stench. For this, he needs you to use the Sandals on a dead Skunk. Some of these are walking around just east of his house. Next, Eclesius wants you to find something that smells really good. Examples are: Blueberries, Bread, Cookies, Roses and possibly more. Blueberries are probably easiest, since there is a bush just outside Eclesius' house, here. Use the Sandals on the berries, or any other object you chose, and report back to Eclesius.
Note: this mission involves a lot of travelling back and forth between Thais, Kazordoon and Ab'Dendriel.
Eclesius explains that the third mission he wants you to do involves one of his evil plans. He wants to create a race that will be superior to any known race. A race that is wise, agile, sturdy and tough. In other words, he wants to cross the Elves and the Dwarfs. However, he realizes that they will never reproduce voluntarily. Therefore, he needs your help. First, you must find an Elf and a Dwarf who are in search of a partner, of course from opposing gender.
Look for Amarie, a shy, diligent student who hangs in the second floor of Ab'Dendriel library. Talk to her with the following words: "Study, Yes, Milkbugs, Care, Dream, Book, Poetry, Yes, Yes, Love, Dating, Yes." You will receive Amarie's Favourite Book as a proof of participation in your dating programme. Next, find Grodrik, a lone drinker in the Kazordoon tavern. Buy at least 7 mugs of beer before talking to him. Say: "Problems, Yes, Woman, Beer, Woman, Beer, Woman, Beer, Wishes, Lonely, Beer, Lonely, Wishes, Beer, Wishes, Woman, Beer, Dating, Yes." Grodrik will give you his axe as a proof of participation. Head back to Eclesius after seeing both subjects.
He will tell you that he has a parchment in his library with questions you should ask to Amarie and Grodrik. Go into the library upstairs and collect the parchment from the drawer. Head back to Ab'Dendriel and ask all 8 questions to Amarie. Make sure to remember her answers, as you will have to compare them to Grodrik's. When finished, go to Kazordoon and ask your questions to Grodrik. There should be some similarities between Grodrik and Amarie. However, as the questions are different for each player, the answers and thus the similarities are also different. Go and tell Eclesius the similarities you have discovered. He will then give you a Love Potion which you have to give to both the subjects. They may, however, not know they are drinking love potion. Tell Amarie that it is bug milk, and she will drink it. Grodrik, obiously, gulps away his potion after telling him it is beer.
For the final stage of this mission, Eclesius wants you to come with him to a Void in the space-time continuum. He summons you in a Dream Realm like surrounding. Here, you must pull two levers to summon Amarie (Creature) and Grodrik (Creature). The third lever is supposed to mix them together, creating the mighty race of the Dwelves. However, as usual with Eclesius' inventions, the machine does not work properly and a Gozzler or Mutated Human or Toad is created instead. Eclesius is sad that his plan has failed, but rewards you for your efforts anyway.
After doing so much walking, Eclesius decides to give you a task for your brain. There are books scattered around in his library, and Eclesius wants you match the titles with the colours of the books. He gives you a couple of hints when you ask for them, and then asks for you to tell him which book is which. The hints are:
The book in the middle of the room is about counter spells.
The book about conversions is not blue.
The Great Encyclopedia is actually not a large book, nor is it green.
The book near the broken bottle is not written by a professor.
The light green book is written by a woman.
The book about grass growth doesn't have the colour you'd guess.
Talk to Eclesius and tell him your solution. In case you fail, you can try again right away.
If you don't feel like solving it yourself, just go to Eclesius and answer his questions with light blue, light green, brown, red, dark blue, and dark green respectively.
Eclesius tells you that last night he was having a drink in Thais, when he came up with a formula for a magic potion which would improve his memory. The thing is, he doesn't remember what the exact formula was, but he is sure that he scribbled it down. He thinks that the person he was with has taken the note with him. Yet, he doesn't remember with who he was either. You must find out who got his formula.
Head for Xodet and speak to him: "eclesius, potion, formula, eclesius, chit chat, magician, eclesius." Xodet will get mad at you for being so unmannered, and he doesn't want to cooperate. Report back to Eclesius. He tells you that you must find Xodet's First Wand. This must remind Xodet of the old friendship the two sorcerers have. You can find the wand in the basement of Xodet's shop, which can be accessed from the south-east sewers (here). Take the wand to Xodet, who will now regret his unwillingness to give you the formula and decides that it is best to give it after all. Head back to Eclesius with the recipe.
For the last mission, you will have to fix Eclesius' last problem. As you may have noticed, he has A Confused Frog in his cellar. Eclesius tells you that this was his previous assistent. Due to an incident, he changed into a frog. Eclesius wants to change his appearance back to normal. He says that a kiss from a princess must do the trick, but since Tibia has run out of princesses, a costume must do. You must retrieve an old dress from Queen Eloise in Carlin. Travel to the castle and talk with the queen. Remember, you must greet her with "Hail queen". She will tell you that you must ask her general for an old rag. Go two floors up and talk to Bunny Bonecrusher. Greet her with "Hail general". Ask her for an old rag. She will give you a Bundle of Rags. Go back to Eclesius' house and talk to him. He tells you to go into the basement and kiss the frog. To do this, use the Bundle of Rags to change your costume into a blank Noblewoman Outfit for 3 minutes. Greet the frog saying ribbit and then say kiss twice.
Unfortunately, the plan will not work. Report to Eclesius. Luckily, he has a second plan. You must gather some ingredients, so that he can make a spell: a Silver Amulet, a Dagger, a Green Tapestry, a Blank Rune and a Dirty Fur. Get them and report back. Eclesius will tell you to recite the spell to the frog, "Eeny, meeny, miny, moe - ribbit, ribbit head to toe". After you did so, the frog can speak human language again, although he has not turned normal yet. If you say "frog" and then "lake, you find out that the former assistent likes his new life as a frog, and he wants to move to the lake north of Thais. Report this to Eclesius. Find a frog near Alatar Lake to exchange position with the assistent. A Frog can be found here. Cast the second spell Eclesius has given you, "Eeny, meeny, miny, moe - I stay here and you will go", and report back to Eclesius to get your last rewards.

Eclesius: If you could do that for me, that'd be great. You need to create a certain food for it though. It was... uh... demonic essence? With fish fins? Or something? ...
Eclesius: No... that can't be right. The recipe is very likely pinned to the wall above the fish bowl. You can use the magical blender in my lab to mix it. Much appreciated! Player: bye

Eclesius: I want you to help me exterminate the bats in my attic. I will let you enter the attic, but there is one thing you have to pay attention to. ...
Eclesius: DO NOT, you hear me, DO NOT hurt the little white cat in my attic. She helps keep down the number of bats and is also very warm and cuddly when she sits on my lap. ...

Eclesius: Well... this is a rather complicated matter. I... er... have a slight problem in my cellar. Some sort of a... vermin problem, yes. ...
Eclesius: I recently conducted a small ritual to help my former assistant regain his human form, but... err... I must have made a small mistake. Could have happened to anyone, really. ...
Eclesius: Erm... in short, there might be a goblin in my cellar. ...
Eclesius: Okay, I admit it. It's a demon. A... demon uberoverlord. Erm. And... while it was still confused from switching worlds, I managed to lock it up in a cage and ran back up the stairs. ...
Eclesius: I... haven't been down there since, but I do know that we really need to keep that cage locked and in good shape. This task is called 'prevent the apocalypse' for a reason. ...
Eclesius: I think we should keep the door lock oiled in any case. I can create a very effective magical oil containing a hex if you bring me the proper ingredients. There's a list somewhere in my lab. ...
Eclesius: Also, I have a magical key somewhere in my house. We should... err, you should use it on the lock to make sure it's shut tight. ...
Eclesius: Let me think, what else. I think you should get a wooden hammer and use it on all the wooden barriers just in case a nail is loose. ...
Eclesius: And, hmm, maybe some music would also help calm the demon. He gets quite angry at times, you know. And then I can't sleep because of his roaring. I'm thinking of a lyre. Play a lyre in front of his cage. ...
Eclesius: So, you got all that, right? Get the recipe for the magical oil and bring the ingredients to me, find my key and lock the door, use a wooden hammer on the cage barriers and play a lyre. Ahem. Good luck! Player: bye

Once you got all the ingredients:

Eclesius: Alakaz... erm... Kazordoon? Uhm... A-la-ka-<COUGH>! Here it is! Magical oil for the cage door. Player: bye

Eclesius: Did you prevent the apocalypse, my brave assistant? Player: yes
Eclesius: Door oiled and locked, wood fixed, prisoner calmed. Very good, we can all live happily, at least for one more day. Here's your reward! Player: bye

Mission 1: A Hat for the Sane
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, my most valued assistant! I have got some tasks for you, and maybe also a real mission or two! Uh... what was your name again? Player: mission
Eclesius: Well, now that you mention it, there is in fact something you could do for me apart from your usual tasks. It's all because of that fool! ...
Eclesius: I can't remember who it was, but someone ruined my favourite hat which used to complete my favourite outfit. It's totally dented! Also there are some suspicious stains on it. It is out of the question for me to wear it in that state!! ...
Eclesius: So I guess I need a new hat. And while we're at it, I want it to be kind of stylish. Also manly. Not pink! And, uh, not too heavy. But since you're my assistant, I'll leave all that up to you. Hehe. ...
Eclesius: Unfortunately I'm not good at sewing, so you might need to find a tailor. I heard they have a large warehouse for clothing in Venore. Maybe you can find someone there who could help you with the hat. Will you take on this mission? Player: yes
Eclesius: <claps hands> How splendid! ... What was it again? Uhm... I can't remember right now, but I feel happy anyway. Just surprise me with whatever you have planned. Hehe.

Irmana on Venore
Player: Hi
Irmana: Welcome to the house of fashion, Player! Player: hat
Irmana: Yes, I can help you with fabricating a hat for your master. I have three different models available. A dark hat, a pink hat and a wooden hat. What do you think would he prefer? Player: dark hat
Irmana: To create a dark hat, I need one piece of minotaur leather and two bat wings. Do you have those materials with you by coincidence? Player: yes
Irmana: A little stitch here and a little stitch there... perfect! Here you are. With the best wishes to your master.

Once you got the hat
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, my most valued assistant! I have got some tasks for you, and maybe also a real mission or two! Uh... what was your name again? Player: mission
Eclesius: Oh wow. A hat, you say? You've actually brought me a new hat?! How did you know I wanted one? That's almost sweet of you <sniff>. Can I see it? Player: yes
Eclesius: Ooooh... it's wonderful... it's perfect even! I love it! Here's your reward! You are my number one favourite assistant! Until I forgot why, that is...

Mission 2: Walking on Clouds
Player: mission
Eclesius: Just this morning I noticed a truly horrible smell. It's possible that I have already noticed it several times before and have forgotten it again, but this smell is really very persistent. ...
Eclesius: Embarrassingly, it comes from... my own feet. <sigh> Those sandals I wear have seen their best days. I could really use a new pair. Impregnated with an anti-smelly-feet-hex. ...
Eclesius: Could you get me a pair of sandals? I'm sure that, together, we can solve this problem. Do you have some time spare for this mission? Player: yes
Eclesius: Okay, fine! Huh? Where to get sandals from? You could consider hunting elves. Or... just find a shoemaker somewhere. I'll wait for you here, It would be socially irresponsible of me to inflict this smell on the general public!
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
When you got the sandals
Player: mission
Eclesius: I haven't forgotten a single word I told you. Sandals! Did you bring me a pair? Player: yes
Eclesius: Yes, that's good quality. Wait, let me put my name on them! There's still a few things to be done before I can wear them though. Remember, the anti-smelly-feet-hex I told you about? You probably don't, but that doesn't matter. I'm patient. ...
Eclesius: The first thing we need to do is disinfect them in boiling water to get rid of all those germs. I suggest you use the large cauldron in my lab since the water there also contains some magical essences. ...
Eclesius: Just use them on the cauldron and then come back. And don't lose my sandals! Or else we'll have to start over with everything.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Go downstairs and usewith on the large cauldron.
Player: mission
Eclesius: You did what?! You put sandals into my cauldron? Oh no! My soup!! I forgot that I was actually preparing dinner. But... oh well. I guess they are clean now. And tasty. Now, for the second step of the process. ...
Eclesius: For the anti-smell-hex, we're going to confront those sandals with a worst-case-scenario. Hehe. I suggest you use them on the fresh corpse of a skunk.. ...
Eclesius: Where can you find skunks, you say? Hum. I think some have made their home in the jungle near Port Hope. Or if you're scared of that, a summoned skunk would probably do the trick too. ...
Eclesius: NO, I can't do the summoning! I don't want to have the smell anywhere near me. Now go, go!
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Get a dead skunk and use the sandals on it.
Player: mission
Eclesius: Eww! What's... what's that unbearable stench on you? Is that you?? Oh dear... you really should shower more often, you smell like dead skunk! Oh, now I remember! Ehem. ...
Eclesius: Now that we have impregnated the sandals with a really bad smell, we should counter that with a really good smell. Hm. Just wondering what that might be. Can you think of anything that smells really delicious? Player: blueberry
Eclesius: Fresh fruit! That's a delicious idea! My favourite fruits are blueberries. Can you use the sandals on blueberries for me? Be very careful not to mash them though. ...
Eclesius: I don't want to have purple stains on my brand-new sandals, if possible. Shh, don't question my plan. It'll work out great!
Or...
Player: bread
Eclesius: Mhh, the smell of fresh bread! What a splendid idea! Yes, let's do that. In fact, you do it. Use the sandals on a loaf of fresh bread so they can soak up the fragrance. ...
Eclesius: And try not to leave any crumbs in my shoes, please. Shh, don't question my plan. It'll work out great!
Or...
Player: flower
Eclesius: Aha! Great minds think alike! And I'm thinking of... a white flower. Not to be confused with the dew kisser flowers near my house! They are white also, but I mean a white flower that's also simply called white flower. ...
Eclesius: Unfortunately I've forgotten where they grow, but I think there are some not too far from here. Use the sandals on a white flower so they can soak up the fragrance. Shh, don't question my plan. It'll work out great!
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
After using and returning the sandals
Player: mission
Eclesius: Mmmh... what's that infatuating smell? I can't tell exactly what it smells like, but really, it's delicious. Ahh yes, the anti-smell-hex, I remember! It seems to have worked! Can I have my sandals now, please? Player: yes
Eclesius: I'm very pleased, very pleased indeed. Thank you, my dear assistant. I'm sure we will suffer a lot less from now on. At least, as far as our olifactory senses are concerned. I mean of course, as regards the smell.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Mission 3: Love's a Wicked Game
Player: mission
Eclesius: It's time to involve you in my plan. Muahaha. I plan on becoming a God! ...
Eclesius: Well, something similar. I want to create a whole new Tibian race! A race that will be both strong and lean, skilled and robust. And they will all serve me. ...
Eclesius: So far my plan. I was thinking that the traits of elves and dwarfs combined would make a really superior being. Just imagine the possibilities! There's one slight problem though. ...
Eclesius: Dwarfs and elves hate each other. There's probably no way they'd voluntarily... well, ehem, cooperate in the creation of this superior new race. So we have to work our magic! Well, you will have to work my magic on my behalf. Hehe. ...
Eclesius: My idea is to turn you into a dating agent. You will have to travel to Kazordoon and Ab'Dendriel and find me a dwarf and an elf - of course of different gender - who seem to be interested in a relationship. ...
Eclesius: Convince them to take part in a dating program and to hand you a personal item we can use for their partner search. Once you've done so, come back to me and we will continue our plan! Will you take on this mission? Player: yes
Eclesius: Good. Don't forget, travel to Kazordoon and Ab'Dendriel and find me a lonely dwarf and a lonely elf. Talk them into taking part in the dating program! And bring something personal back from them!

Amarie in Ab'Dendriel
Player: hi
Amarie: I really have to study, I'm sorry. Please leave me alone with my books. Player: study
Amarie: Oh, you're interested in what I study? Really? <blushes> That's unusual. Well, it's about the... no wait. I don't want to bore you. Are you really interested? Player: yes Amarie: Wow. Okay... it's about the... <blushes even more> well... social interaction of milkbugs in their m... mating season. Player: milkbugs
Amarie: Milkbugs are a very interesting species, actually. They really care for each other and help each other to raise their young. Player: care
Amarie: Sigh... so caring, yes. <gets a dreamy look in her eyes> Sometimes I dream of.... ah .. forget what I said. <blushes> Player: dream
Amarie: What do I dream of? I think... no one has asked me that for a long time. In my favourite book it says... oh, but it isn't really interesting. Player: book
Amarie: My favourite book... is an erm... poetry book. Which I shouldn't waste my study time on, but... poetry can also be meaningful. Player: poetry
Amarie: Would you like me to... re... recite some poetry? <blushes> Player: yes
Amarie: Really... okay. I'll tell you my favourite. Maybe you'll like it too... <smiles shyly> It's an elven poem, but I'll translate it for you. Here goes: ...
Amarie: 'Alas, her pale face up in the starry sky ... Amarie: Flaunting a light that is not hers ...
Amarie: Lost in reverie to dance with the fervid sun ...
Amarie: Yet knowing that this day will never dawn ...
Amarie: For with the dawn she fades ...
Amarie: And only when darkness engulfs her ...
Amarie: Will her light shine the brightest.' ...
Amarie: <blushes> So... what do you think? Did you like the poem? Player: yes
Amarie: Oh, do you really mean it? That's so nice, finally someone who understands me. <smiles and claps her hands> Maybe you will understand my dreams as well. Or... I'm getting carried away. My dreams are a little confusing. ...
Amarie: And I don't think there's a chance that I'll ever find what I'm really looking for. <sighs> I guess I shall have to resign myself to a long, lonely life without love... Player: love
Amarie: Love? Hah... you don't know me. I'm really not good at this stuff. Or what is it you're implying? Player: dating
Amarie: <blushes> You are a dating agent? Oh dear, I never would've told you all this stuff had I known that earlier. Well... I guess... it's better than waiting all my life. ...
Amarie: Do you need anything from me for the registration? Player: yes
Amarie: A personal item, you say? Well... the most personal thing I have is this book of mine... with my favourite poem in it. I'll give it to you... maybe you'll find someone who also sees more in it. Thank you...

Godrik in Kazordoon
Player: hi
Grodrik: Leave me in peace. I don't want to chat with humans. Got my own worries and problems. Player: problems
Grodrik: <sigh> My current problem is that my beer is empty. Got a mug of beer for me? Player: yes
Grodrik: Hrrm. Appreciated. <gulp gulp> You know, life without a woman just isn't as much fun. Someone who'll give you a foot massage when you come home from the tavern. Player: woman
Grodrik: Sigh. I don't want to talk about all that. It's too embarassing. <swallows his beer down in one gulp> Player: beer
Grodrik: Oh, thanks, stranger. I like you better and better. Hehehe. Now, did you want to say something? Player: woman
Grodrik: I don't really want to talk about that... I think. I'm actually a bit shy, you know, especially towards strangers, although you've been rather nice to me with all that beer. Player: beer
Grodrik: Oh, thanks, stranger. I like you better and better. Hehehe. Now, did you want to say something? Player: woman
Grodrik: Ah, whatever, why shouldn't I tell you. I've never had a girlfriend. <sigh> I wouldn't even demand much from her or have unrealistic wishes. I just feel so lonely sometimes. But oh well, that's not really any of your business. <swallows his beer down> Player: wishes
Grodrik: Whoah! You are going too far, stranger. My wishes are quite personal. Player: lonely
Grodrik: Ah, what do you know about loneliness. You look like you've got a lot of friends. I only have my beer. And that's almost empty. Player: beer
Grodrik: Oh, thanks, stranger. I like you better and better. Hehehe. Now, did you want to say something? Player: lonely
Grodrik: It's not just about having company or not. You also need someone who respects your wishes - <hicks> - and tolerates your habits. Such as drinking beer. Player: wishes
Grodrik: Whoah! You are going too far, stranger. My wishes are quite personal. Player: beer
Grodrik: Oh, thanks, stranger. I like you better and better. Hehehe. Now, did you want to say something? Player: wishes
Grodrik: My wishes... <hicks>... are humble. A tall, strong woman with a blonde beard, adventurous and able to brew beer. <hicks> Yes, that would be great. But I guess I won't ever find anyone like that. <hicks> Player: woman
Grodrik: Ah, whatever, why shouldn't I tell you. I've never had a girlfriend. <sigh> I wouldn't even demand much from her or have unrealistic wishes. I just feel so lonely sometimes. But oh well, that's not really any of your business. <swallows his beer down> Player: beer
Grodrik: Oh, thanks, stranger. I like you better and better. Hehehe. Now, did you want to say something? Player: dating
Grodrik: You know... <hicks> ... maybe that's not such a bad idea after all. <hicks> You took note of my wishes, right... <hicks> Is there anything you still need from me for the <hicks> registration? Player: yes
Grodrik: A personal <hicks> item, you say? Well, I can give you my favourite <hicks> axe. Here. Let me know when you find a girl for me. <hicks>
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Back to Eclesius
Player: mission
Eclesius: Yes, I remember my plan very well! I take it you have found a lonely dwarf and a lonely elf for our dating game? Player: yes
Eclesius: And you've also brought a personal item from each of them. Very, very good, let me take them and put them here, yes. Hehe. What do you think, based on their personalities, could the dwarf and elf in question get on with each other? Player: no
Eclesius: Well, that doesn't surprise me. But to find out how concentrated our love potion has to be, let's do a small questionaire with them. ...
Eclesius: Go into my library. Somewhere around there you should find a parchment with some sample questions on it. Ask the dwarf and the elf the questions and see if they have ANYTHING in common. That should give us a starting point.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
You will now find a paper with 8 random questions, ask these to both the npcs.Example: (NOTE! QUESTIONS MAY BE DIFFERENT DEPENDING ON WHAT YOUR PARCHMENT SAYS!)
Player: hi
Amarie: Oh! You're back! Any news from the... <blushes> dating... thing? Player: yes
Amarie: You want to ask me some questions? About myself? <blushes> Okay... I'll be honest as long as they aren't too personal. Go ahead. Player: What's most important in a relationship for you?
Amarie: You should always strive for harmony in a relationship to avoid arguments and fights. Harmony is important! Player: What's your ideal date location?
Amarie: A lush, green meadow in the middle of a forest... <dreams> Player: What physical attribute should your ideal partner have?
Amarie: Uhm... well, I look at a person's face first. A handsome face would be a definite plus. Player: Tell me something you love.
Amarie: <blushes> My secret addiction... is chocolate. Luckily it's so rare, or else I'd eat it all day. Player: Tell me something you dislike
Amarie: I don't like fire very much... it poses a threat to my beloved trees, the beautiful grass and my precious books. I've lost too many things due to fires. Player: What's an important character trait for you?
Amarie: I think I'd choose patience as an answer to this one. Patience promotes tolerance which prevents arguments and thus ensures harmony. Player: What's your favourite colour?
Amarie: I love all colours! It's so hard to choose one! But I think... my favourite colour for today is green. Green like the trees, like balance and relaxation. Player: What's your greatest fear?
Amarie: I try to stay in control of my fears. But if you ask me like that... it really makes me shiver when I hear the name of Ferumbras. <shudders>
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Grodrik: Hiho! It's you again! Any news from the <whispers> dating service? Player: yes
Grodrik: I see, they want me to answer a questionaire? Sure, I can understand why. Just go right ahead with your questions! Player: What's most important in a relationship for you?
Grodrik: The most important thing in a relationship is to always have a good supply of beer. Solves almost all problems! Player: What's your ideal date location?
Grodrik: What do you mean, date location? I never had a date, so how should I know? I guess here would do. Right here in this tavern. Player: What physical attribute should your ideal partner have?
Grodrik: Of course... a pretty, long and well-combed beard! Also I have a weakness for tiny toes. Player: Tell me something you love.
Grodrik: Hrmrhm. Let's think about this one strategically. I guess I'm going to be matched up with a woman. What do women always say? Chocolate! So... put chocolate there as an answer. Player: What's your favourite colour?
Grodrik: Red. Red like fire, and red like my favourite kind of steel. Player: Tell me something you dislike
Grodrik: I don't like the fact that some weapons get rusty. Rust is a curse for any smith. Player: What's an important character trait for you?
Grodrik: I get angry when someone lies to me. Lies are bad. So put down honesty. Player: What's your greatest fear?
Grodrik: Dwarfs have no fear!! Well... for some reason, jesters give me the creeps.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Head back to Eclesius.
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, my most valued assistant! I have got some tasks for you, and maybe also a real mission or two! Uh... what was your name again? Player: mission
Eclesius:Wait, wait, I know you. I also know what you wanted from me. Errrm... ah yes! The milk delivery! Right? Player: no
Eclesius: NO? It was about the... love potion, you say? Hm, I see. So... did you find anything which the dwarf and the elf have in common? Player: yes
Eclesius: Well, then what is it they both have in common? Player: they like chocolate
Eclesius: Hm! That is something we can easily build on. Let me think for a small moment and then we can continue the mission.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, my most valued assistant! I have got some tasks for you, and maybe also a real mission or two! Uh... what was your name again? Player: mission
Eclesius: You'll probably be flabbergasted to hear that I've already prepared the basic love potion while you were gone. You thought you would have to gather ingredients now, right? Hehehe. ...
Eclesius: Sometimes I just love surprises! I'll give you two doses. Try to get each of our little, erm, love birds to drink it. And then run away very fast before the potion takes effect! ...
Eclesius: Trust me, you don't want to be the first person they see, plus you'll ruin the experiment. Just come back to me once we're done and I'll take care of the rest. ...
Eclesius: Are you ready? Player: yes
Eclesius: Be prepared to do some convincing, but don't use force. Teehee. And remember to RUN once they've drunk it!
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Back to Amarie in Ab'Dendriel
Player: hi
Amarie: Ashari, my friend. My heart is filled with gladness and hope. Have you got anything interesting for me? Player: drink
Amarie: A drink? What kind of drink? I'm very picky when it comes to food and drink. Player: milkbug
Amarie: Oh, you brought us some bug milk? That's so nice of you! Let's drink it right away, shall we? Player: yes
Amarie: <sips> To love! The most beautiful of all... uh... my tummy... feels so warm... and my heart is beating faster...
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Now to Godrik on Kazordoon
Player: Hi
Grodrik: Hello, my friend. What do you have for me today? Player: beer
Grodrik: Oh, sure. Let's have a drink first. Got a beer for me? Player: yes
Grodrik: <gulp gulp> Aa... erm... what the... that's a strange beer. It makes me feel... all warm and fuzzy... uuhhhnn...
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Head back to Eclesius' house
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, my most valued assistant! I have got some tasks for you, and maybe also a real mission or two! Uh... what was your name again? Player: mission
Eclesius: MUAHAHA! My plan worked! You did well! I'll make sure you get an extra bonus for that. Now hmm, hmm, let me think for a moment before we go on with the mission. Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, my most valued assistant! I have got some tasks for you, and maybe also a real mission or two! Uh... what was your name again? Player: mission
Eclesius: I have just noticed a very small flaw in my plan. Our subjects need to meet each other, and that rather fast. But a dwarf would never visit Ab'Dendriel, nor would an elf go to Kazordoon. ...
Eclesius: So we need to get them here! I just happen to have a small crack in the space-time continuum under my house. Once you are ready, we will both go there and summon forth our subjects. Are you prepared? Player: yes
Eclesius: Space-time cotinuum, here we come!
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Once you're there
Player: hi
Eclesius: Ah, there you are. I hope your journey was safe and you hasn't cost you any body parts. Now, muahaha, the best part of my plan! Are you listening? Player: yes
Eclesius: <goes on excitedly> Do you see these three levers? I have decided I don't want to leave our subjects' fate to coincidence. The left and the right lever summon our dwarf and elf. ...
Eclesius: The lever in the middle will create the first specimen of the - tadaaa - Dwelves! Now, first pull the left lever, then the right lever, and once both subjects are there, the one in the middle. ...
Eclesius: Don't mess this up! I... err.. will wait here at a safe distance.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
After you've pulled the levers
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh. OH. Is that... the result...? Player: yes
Eclesius: I think... we should forget about this whole mess posthaste. I'll... erm... clean up the memories of these subje-... erm... people and send them home. ...
Eclesius: And we'll get out of here too. Ready to go up? Player: yes
Eclesius: Let's go.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Back at Eclesius' house
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, my most valued assistant! I have got some tasks for you, and maybe also a real mission or two! Uh... what was your name again? Player: mission
Eclesius: The dwarf and the elf will hopefully not remember what happened. And neither will I - hopefully - in a day or too. Sometimes I'm glad that my memory is like a sieve! ...
Eclesius: Well anyhow, you deserve a reward for all that talking and convincing you did, so here you go.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Mission 4: Books of Many Colours
Player: mission
Eclesius: I thought that your legs could use a little break after having done all that travelling. So let's do something for your brain instead. ...
Eclesius: See how much I care for my assistants? An almost altruistic task which will even make you a little smarter - maybe. I'm sure you've seen all those books lying around in my library. ...
Eclesius: Your job is to tell me the colour of each book, one after another. I'll ask you for the colours. If you need hints, you can also ask me and I'll give you a random hint. ...
Eclesius: Don't blame me if I repeat myself! There are six different hints in total. Once you are ready and have a vague idea of the answers, ask me about your mission. Player: mission
Eclesius: There are the following colours: red, brown, light blue, dark blue, light green and dark green. So, what colour is the 'Great Encyclopedia of the Magiverse'? Player: light blue
Eclesius: I see. And what colour is 'Necromancing at its Most Romantic'? Player: light green
Eclesius: I see. And what colour is the 'Collection of Counterspells against Counterspells'? Player: brown
Eclesius: I see. And what colour is 'Interesting Trivia about Grass Growth'? Player: red
Eclesius: I see. And what colour is 'Mathemagics for Dummies and Forgetful People'? Player: dark blue
Eclesius: I see. And what colour is 'How to Transmute Gold into Lead and Other Useful Conversions'? Player: dark green
Eclesius: I see. That concludes my questioning. I guess now you'd like to know whether you succeeded in the mission? Player: yes
Eclesius: You answered all the questions correctly- bravo - as far as I can remember my books. Congratulations! Well, since I actually did something for your intelligence, the reward is symbolic. But it's the thought that counts! Teehee.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Mission 5: A Drink to Remember
Player: mission
Eclesius: I feel depressed... sigh. Although I always try to see the positive side of not being able to remember things very well, there is a dark side to it as well. ...
Eclesius: It might be comfortable to forget about accidents and sad incidents, but I also forget about the happy events. I can't even remember whether I got a present for my birthday and if I did, what it was. ...
Eclesius: I have the most brilliant ideas - at least, I think I do - but the next day I have forgotten them completely. Last night, while I was sitting in Frodo's tavern, I think I had one of the best ideas ever. ...
Eclesius: I had it all in my head - the formula for a potion which would stimulate my memory and keep it active! But - I can't remember it anymore. The only thing I vaguely remember is that I told it to someone. ...
Eclesius: But I can't remember who that was either! That's the crux of the whole matter. I wish you could help me with this. ...
Eclesius: Maybe you can find out who I talked to last night in Frodo's tavern, and maybe that person will remember the formula for the potion. Could you please try to figure that out for me? Player: yes
Eclesius: You wouldn't believe how thankful I am. I might seem confused or egocentric sometimes, but really, I appreciate your help a lot. I hope you're successful!
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Frodo: Welcome to Frodo's Hut. You heard about the news? Player: eclesius
Frodo: Oh, that old guy! He's a good customer, that's for sure. Player: last night
Frodo: Yes, he was here last evening as well. Player: talked
Frodo: Who he talked to? Hm... I'm not sure, there were a few people around. No girls or women though. Maybe just ask around for Eclesius.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Xodet: Oh, please come in, Player. If you need magical equipment such as runes or wands, just ask me for a trade. Player: eclesius
Xodet: Huh? Erm... yes, I know him... but uhm... only vaguely. Yes. <chuckles nervously> Player: potion
Xodet: Yes, ehem, I do sell potions. But... only the conventional ones. Really. Player: formula
Xodet: A new formula for a potion? Oh... no, no, of course not. I'm not a magician, you know. Player: eclesius
Xodet: Yes, we might have chatted a bit last night, but not about... important things. Just the usual chit-chat. Player: chit chat
Xodet: We talked about... well... uhm... <gets a red face> That's none of your business!! Who are you anyway to think you have the right to pose me these questions?? Player: magician
Xodet: Well, how about - I don't care? Unlessa you're sent by someone important, let me do my business and leave me in peace. So who sent you?! Player: Eclesius
Xodet: You're Eclesius' assistant? Well... I see. So he remembers after all, does he? Well, I don't care! Go away, topic closed!
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, my most valued assistant! I have got some tasks for you, and maybe also a real mission or two! Uh... what was your name again? Player: mission
Eclesius: You look as if you have found something out. Have you? Who did I talk to?? Player: xodet
Eclesius: Xodet! That old fox! I should've guessed it! We were buddies in the old days, you know... but it's harsh to hear that he seems to value money more than our friendship. ...
Eclesius: There must be a way to remind him that there are more important things in life. Hmmm... you know, it was me who gave Xodet his first wand and taught him the basics of magic. ...
Eclesius: He was never a really good sorcerer and his spells went wrong most of the time, so he decided to become a trader for magical equipment instead. ...
Eclesius: But I wonder whether he still has that first wand... maybe in his house somewhere? I think if you could find it, he might remember what we shared... right? Player: yes
Eclesius: Thank you. I hope you find it! I know it might be hard to get into his house, but I believe it's for the greater good. And for my good, of course.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Xodet: Player, how many times should I tell you to... w-wait, what's that in your hand? Player: your first wand
Xodet: My first wand... I thought it was long gone... how strange to see it again after all those years. I remember well how I got it... and tried to become a great sorcerer. ...
Xodet: But my efforts were in vain... I've never become as good as Eclesius, Muriel or Trimegis... so I settled down with trading magical equipment. ...
Xodet: I thought that with the formula of Eclesius, I might be able to brew a new kind of potion and finally have a breakthrough... but I see now that was a mistake, although tempting. ...
Xodet: Here, take the paper with the formula and give it back to Eclesius. Tell him that I'm sorry and that I hope we'll still have a drink now and then. I'm not a bad person... just desperate sometimes.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, my most valued assistant! I have got some tasks for you, and maybe also a real mission or two! Uh... what was your name again? Player: mission
Eclesius: Oh! Were you successful and have you convinced Xodet to hand over the formula? Player: yes
Eclesius: Thank you! Really, I mean it. I will start to brew the potion immediately. This one is a little too important to be done by my assistant, I'm sure you understand. Thanks again!
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Mission 6: The Unhappy Frog
Player: mission
Eclesius: Aarghh! What have I done! My head is spinning! Player, I just drank a sip of my potion... and it works. I'm just not sure whether that is a good or a bad thing. ...
Eclesius: Right now, my memory is very clear and I remember everything... oh dear... my poor assistant! ... No, not you, my previous assistant. Maybe you've seen the little frog in the cellar. ...
Eclesius: Oh no, the cellar! I left him in the company of the demon! Aarghh! My poor poor assistant! We have to save him! ...
Eclesius: I also remember there's something commonly used to turn frogs back into humans... you know what I mean? A kiss! We need a princess to kiss him, or something like that. ...
Eclesius: The problem is you're far from being a princess. Oh, that's not an insult. Princesses are usually lazy, whiny and demand to be saved all the time while hiding in the last place you would think of looking for them. ...
Eclesius: I guess Tibia is currently out of princesses though after the sad fate of Princess Lumelia... but! Queen Eloise was a princess once. I wonder if she still has some of her outfits from when she was a princess. ...
Eclesius: You know what we are going to do? Err, I mean, what you are going to do? You are going to sneak into the castle of Carlin and see if you can find some of those clothes. Maybe a fake princess will do the trick. Agreed? Player: yes
Eclesius: Fine, then off with you and good luck. Me and my poor assistant will be waiting.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hail queen
Queen Eloise: I greet thee, my loyal subject. Player: dress
Queen Eloise: Oh, I'm sure we have some old rags to donate for the needy. You can ask General Bunny Bonecrusher for them.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hail general
Bunny Bonecrusher: Salutations, commoner Player! Player: dress
Bunny Bonecrusher: What do you want here, sneaking around like a thief at night? Are you looking for something? Player: yes
Bunny Bonecrusher: Well then spit it out! What are you sniffing around here for? Player: old rag
Bunny Bonecrusher: You need some old rags? Well, we support the needy. So I guess there's no harm in giving you these old clothes. And now please leave the castle, commoner.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, Player, my most appreciated assistant! I hope you're here for your task or a mission. Player: mission
Eclesius: Have you got some of Queen Eloise's clothes? Player: yes
Eclesius: Great! Then I suggest we - err, you, go down into the cellar, put on these clothes and kiss my assistant. I'm very optimistic that this will work! Go right ahead!
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: ribbit
A Confused Frog: Ribbit?! Player: kiss
A Confused Frog: ..... ... Player: kiss
A Confused Frog: .... ribbit ... ribbitribbit. <the frog looks at you with sad eyes>
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, Player, my most appreciated assistant! I hope you're here for your task or a mission. Player: mission
Eclesius: You're back! Did the kiss work? Player: no
Eclesius: Oh... I see. Wuaaaaaaaaaaah why do my plans never seem to work out? I'm not such a useless sorcerer! We need to find another way. Let's try something different, shall we? Player: yes
Eclesius: Okay, let's resort to some good old black magic for a counterspell. I really need your help with this one though, especially for the ingredients. ...
Eclesius: You probably thought I wouldn't let you gather items anymore, right? But - I love surprises! Teehee. So please bring me the following items, all of them at the same time: ...
Eclesius: A silver amulet, a dagger, a green tapestry, a blank rune and a dirty fur. Did you get that? Player: yes
Eclesius: Great. I'll wait for you here and I'm positive I won't have forgotten about it when you come back.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, Player, my most appreciated assistant! I hope you're here for your task or a mission. Player: mission
Eclesius: So, do you have a silver amulet, a dagger, a green tapestry, a blank rune and a dirty fur with you? Player: yes
Eclesius: Ahh, thanks! With these I will develop a very potent counterspell. Give me just a short time and we can continue.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, Player, my most appreciated assistant! I hope you're here for your task or a mission. Player: mission
Eclesius: Tadaaaaa - the counterspell is ready. Actually you just need to pronounce it in front of my poor assistant and his shape should go back to normal. The spell goes as follows: ...
Eclesius: 'Eeny, meeny, miny, moe - ribbit, ribbit head to toe!' That's what you are going to say. I err... stay here. Not that it's necessary! But... just in case. Did you understand that? Player: yes
Eclesius: Then... good luck! And err, just in case, thank you very much for your great work so far, I have grown rather fond of you. And I'd miss you should anything happen. Which it won't. Of course.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
A confused frog: Err... ribbit? Player: Eeny, meeny, miny, moe - ribbit, ribbit head to toe!
A confused frog: ........ ...
A confused frog: Ri..... ...
A confused frog: Ritual didn't work. RIBBIT?! I can speak the human language again! Ribbit! Well, at least sometimes it seems. Ribbit. And who the heck are you?? Player: Player
A confused frog: Are you? I see. I saw you poking around here earlier. Ribbit. Well whatever you were trying to do, I'm not sure it was successful. Ribbit. What was that princess thing all about, anyway?? Player: eclesius
A confused frog: That old fool! He should be locked up with his weird theories and ideas and forced to study some serious magic! Rrrribbit! Player: human
A confused frog: You know... being a frog isn't that bad. Ribbit. I don't want to be a human again. I just wish I could get out of this cage and live by a lovely little pond.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, Player, my most appreciated assistant! I hope you're here for your task or a mission. Player: mission
Eclesius: Oh... that's a most interesting turn of events. He wants to stay a frog?! Well, usually I'd say, no problem and all that, but then we have to get him out of my cellar. ...
Eclesius: You know that I'm a paranoid person and I wonder if he still holds a grudge against me... I can't just let him out of the cage and have him walk around my living room. ...
Eclesius: But I have a better idea. Try to find out which pond he'd like to live in, and then go to that special pond and find a frog that is living there. ...
Eclesius: We'll just do a body exchange, easy as that! I also happen to know a magic formula for that special task. It goes like this: ...
Eclesius: 'Eeny, meeny, miny, moe - I stay here and you will go!' As soon as you have found a frog at my ex-assistant's pond of preference, recite that spell to him. And hopefully... no, most likely! - it will work. ...
Eclesius: Did you get all that? Player: yes
Eclesius: Okay, so... good luck again! Which you... of course... won't really need, because everything is planned well. Yes. No luck required.
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: ribbit
A frog: Ribbit. Player: Eeny, meeny, miny, moe - I stay here and you will go!
A frog: Uhhhhhh... ribbit... wow, I don't believe it. That must be the first time one of the old fool's spells have actually worked! Ribbit! Thank you!
The Scatterbrained Sorcerer Quest
Player: hi
Eclesius: Oh, welcome back, Player, my most appreciated assistant! I hope you're here for your task or a mission. Player: mission
Eclesius: You did it! Thank you! Wow, who'd have thought that you'd have become such a useful and skilled assistant. Now I can sleep with a clear conscience again. ...
Eclesius: Well, except for the demon. And the other frog who is now trapped in the cage. And some other stuff... but that shouldn't bother you. You've been a great help to me. Thanks again!
