Shadows of Amn > TrademeetTrademeet (AR2000)

Trademeet is a town under attack by wild animals.
Eastern gate
After you arrive at this gate for the first time you enter
Trademeet, you'll witness the fight between the local guards and wild animals.
Help the guards defeat them. The Militia Captain will then hail you and direct
you to see Lord Logan Coprith

Skin Dancer's hideout
This walled off area is a secret hideout of the infamous
skin dancer. If you've talked with Darsidian Moor, he'll tell you to come here
in order to catch the Skin Dancer and his accomplice. Darsidian and Rissa will
tell you that they've just knocked out the human accomplice of the Skin Dancer
and that you should kill it.
It is up to you whether you kill the unconscious being on the
ground or let it live. If you do, then you'll be shortly shown to be a fool. The
unconscious being is the actual Raissa, and the Raissa that was talking to you
was actually Rejiek. Well, Darsidian and pseudo-Raissa are poor actors and you
can easily spot their gig.
Once you kill the actual Skin Dancers, Raissa will wake up
and put her skin back on (growse). However, she is cursed to become one of them
too. In order to reverse the evil magic, you have to cast a restoration spell.
Either buy the Restoration scroll from a temple or cast a spell if your cleric
has it memorized. There is another alternative - to kill Raissa and thusly
release her from the curse.

suggest that you go inside the tent and talk to their Khan. Do as he says and go
speak with the Khan inside.
Khan Zahraa will tell you that he and his buddies are here in
Trademeet because they hunt a rakshasa by the name Ihtafeer. Apparently they
gave up hunting for themselves and instead have taken over the trade in
Trademeet, so that the locals would find Ihtafeer instead. You could suggest to
him that you can take care of the problem.
Khan Zahraa has some items for sale too although at the very
exorbitant prices - it is for really desperate.

the important thing is that the genies will leave Trademeet, which means
that the merchants will be able to trade again.

pleasure house, Misstress Jeanne, will explain the troubles that her business is
going through because of the genies.
You should speak to the Wilfred fellow and listen to the
story of how he killed a dragon and looted a dragon hoard. If you expose his
lies by threatening him, he'll give you a thousand gold and boot the hell out of
this tent.
Killing Wilfred will set the two women in the tent hostile
as well and you'll end up losing reputation, so it is better to rob the
"adventurer". You can pickpocket him for some nice gems, although you should do
it before you talk to him.

pieces. She'll tell Viconia that soon she will return home and have a difficult
choice to make. Protagonist's path will overwhelm her small gift, although she
will discern that you have a blood of the God in you and that you are not alone.
Edwin is apparently "an evil, bitter man lusting for power" =)
Once you saved the town from druids and / or from genies,

Athkatla. You can either dissuade him from going there or encourage him.

Dancer and ask for your help in dealing with it. Apparently the Skin Dancer's
lair is a bit north of the eastern gate, in a walled off section.
The Market

or day, although at night you'll only see Wallace. Unfortunately, until you

Medium Shield, Long Sword (2).
Vyatri's Pub (AR2010)

scared in fact that he'll get teleported away.
There are a bunch of patrons in this pub: Alenina, Lady
Merana plus the usual crowd of drunkards.
Talk to Vyatri, the barkeep, to learn about the animal
attacks and the captured druid that's been held in prison.
Outside of the pub you'll find Lord Khellon, the halfling
who can't build roads because the druids in the Grove won't let him. If you've
done your foul deed and poisoned the Grove's Holy Font, then come speak to Lord

night ?) by an ambitious Halfling by the name Lord Khellon Menold (maybe
only if you are evil ?). This halfling has ambitions to become the new
High Merchant of the town and will propose you to kill the druids and exorcise
the Grove of its "evil" spirit. Apparently he has his own motives, so you should
be careful when deciding whether to accept his proposal or not. If you accept
his proposal, he'll give you a sulphurous poison that you should pour in the
druid's font. The reward for doing will apparently be some gold and an enchanted
shield. He shall wait for you near
Vyatri's Pub entrance.
Should you not trust him and go tell about what he's said to
Logan Coprith, the halfling will simply disappear.

a nice monetary reward. After you solve the problem in the Grove, Lord Coprith
will ask you to deal with the Dao Djinnis that seemed to occupy the trade in the
town.

by Lady Lilith Lurraxol and Lord Skarmaen Alibakkar. Both of them claim to come
