Bard --> Theatre beneath Five Flagons
Go to the Bridge District and into the Five Flagons. There you
will find a Theatre in the basement. Watch the horrible show
and listen to Raelis Shai's plea for help. Complete this quest
and you will get control of the theatre.
Once you are back in the theatre, the owner of the Five Flagons,
Samuel Thunderburp asks what is going on. You can tell him that
you were given the Deed to the Theatre by Raelis before she left
for Sigil. He also sends Higgold the famous director to talk to
you. He tells you to bring money in half a week.
Whenever you are needed, Higgold sends a boy out to bring you
back in. Each event is about 4 to 6 days apart. Do NOT delay
in getting there once the messenger talks to you, else the play
quality will suffer. You get THREE DAYS from the time you are
given the message until the play suffers from your absence. The
Play Quality determines how well the play does in the end, and
how much money you will earn from it later.
To determine your Play Quality, talk to the actors in the back.
The more confidant they sound, the better the play. They have
three separate comments: one is really depressed, the other is
unsure of themselves and the last they are super happy about
life.
Here are the events:
Event 1: Choose who to star: Naive Jenna or Actress Iltheia.
Sure, Jenna might be the sympathetic favorite, but
Iltheia will net you a better play in the end.
How much money to invest: the minimum is 1000gp, but
you can spend up to 10,000 gp. Naturally the more
you spend the better.
Event 2: Solve the jealousy between Jenna and Iltheia. If
Iltheia is playing the small role and you put her in
the larger one you improve the quality of the play and
get 6750 exp. Force Iltheia to accept her small role
for 15,750 exp and improve the Play Quality. Expand
her role for a mere 6750 exp, however the Play Quality
will suffer. If Jenna is in the small role and you
put her in the larger one, you get 6750 experience
but hurt the quality of the play. Letting them solve
things on their own cuts the quality and nets you no
experience. If Iltheia is in the lead, don't threaten
her or the play quality will dip. Compliment her for
11,500 experience. Then you have to give her 500 gp,
but it further improves the Play.
Event 3: Zeran is improvising. Allow him to rewrite the play
for 15,750 exp and improve the Quality of the Play a
lot. Allow him to keep improvising for 11,500 exp and
improve the quality of the play slightly. Stop his
improvisation and you get NO experience and the Play
Quality slips a little.
Event 4: Everyone is rewriting their characters. Have faith in
Zeran's changes, with a charisma of 17 or better and
the quality of the play improves. Stop all
changes for 11,500 exp. Stop the changes and pay them
500 gp as a bonus gets you 11,500 exp as well, this
also improves the quality of the Play. Threaten to
"let them walk out" and you get no exp and the Quality
of the Play drops. You can also take control of the
rewrites yourself, and if your Charisma is 17 or
better then you will also improve the quality of the
play and get 11,500 exp.
Event 5: The curse? Lots of weird things are going on, and a
Priest offers to cleanse the theatre for 1000 gp.
Give him the gold and get 11,500 exp and improve the
play quality. If you have a high charisma you can get
away with giving her 500 gp for 11,500 exp, but no
change in Play Quality. If you can't afford to pay
and have a high charisma you can give her nothing and
still improve the Play Quality. If you send her
packing, or have a low charisma you will hurt the play
quality quite a bit.
Event 6: Problems with the music. Your musician has vanished.
Hiring Balmitance (the famous musician) has a great
effect on the Play Quality and nets you 15,500 exp at
a cost of only 500 gold. Making Marcus write the
score hurts the Play Quality quite a bit. If your
Intelligence is 15 or less then letting Marcus play
while you write really hurts the play and gets you no
experience. If your INT is 16 or 17 you get 6750 exp
and a slight improvement to Quality. At 18 INT
letting Marcus play the Harp while you rewrite the
music for 11,500 exp. 19 or better INT gets you the
best experience 15,500 and a better improvement to
play quality (thought not so good as hiring the famous
musician!).
30 or so days later...
Event 7: Barbarians have invaded the Theatre. You meet Higgold
on the main level of the Five Flagons this time and
he begs for you to get rid of the barbarians who have
taken control. Go downstairs, clean out the five
goons here (including one mage) and get 15,500 exp.
Event 8: A day later you can watch the dress rehearsal. (You
could take notes on what is being said... it's kinda
important! Or you could just continue using this FAQ)
Event 9: Within three days (rather than the week you were
promised) you are summoned again. And again he is on
the main floor. Seems a major player at the City
Council is going to attend and Zeran is ill. You
must take up the role of the wizard (whether you are
male or female it doesn't matter).
The Play: Since you are now in the role of the wizard, that
means you have LINES to perform. Weren't paying
attention in the dress rehearsal? Your lines are:
2, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1
The City Council person speaks, and depending on how
YOU personally did you get experience:
49,500 experience (near flawless)
35,500 exp (several mistakes)
19,500 exp (many mistakes)
If you get the "near flawless", you also are given
a gift, the Aslaer's Harp.
Next the overall quality of the play is judged:
50,000 experience (near perfection)
29,500 experience (not quite perfect)
19,500 experience (not even close to perfect)
Finally Higgold offers to buy the theatre off of you
for 10,000 gold. (If you got the "near perfection"
score, anyway) This is totally up to you.
How much money the Theatre generates during a week
depends entirely upon how much you invested at the
start and the quality of the play. The more you
invest, the better the return. If you invested the
maximum of 10,000 and had a phenomenal play, the max
amount per week is 1800 gp/week. Every week past the
first, the gold/week drops by 100 gold until it hits
500 gold/week where it will remain.
And that is that for the Bard's Theatre.
