Thrundarr issued me a Shadow Lord as his first quest. Any ideas on where to find one without going past the animated forest? And no, I'm not going to the dwaven halls. |

Tomb of the High Kings, level above Darkforge, Unremarkable Dungeon, ID as already recommended. Maybe even one in the pyramid along with Rehetep. Ladies and Gentleman, take my advice. Pull down your pants, and slide on the ice. |

I've never even seen one...good luck! Maybe they get spawned by Shadow Wyrms, which I know get spawned around I:80... You pick up the Wand of Do Nothing. 'z'... Nothing happens. 't'... The Wand of Do Nothing misses the kestral. Come on, it's a Wand of Do Nothing! |

You could try the dwarvin graveyards, though invisiblity is a must, ghosts and all. Also bring undead slaying ammo for lichs. You attack the Ancient pink dragon with all of your force, but do not mange to harm it! The Ancient Pink Dragon breaths a deathray, poision, fire, acid, ice, lightning, water, corruption, missle, petrefication, and stun breath at you. All of your equipment is torn apart! You die... ####################################### ..-------------------------------D%$[(% ####################################### Robojesus_gintfrg St99 Le99 Wi99 Dx99 To99 Ch99 A99 Ma99 Pe99 L++ Dv/Pv 1500/1500 H -5843(18857) P 99999 (99999) Exp50/48320283474958492 ID:48374 Spd:5833 Blessed Invisible Bloated |

Looks like Thundarr pulled another "Ha ha! Now I will make it impossible for you to prove yourself! Bring me a cupcake! With sprinkles!". My winners and high level dead characters have 3-4 Shadow Lords on their kill list. A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks. |

Shadow lords are goddamn rare. Had them for my first quest too. The cavernous levels of the Tomb of the High Kings are your best shot, if you are strong enough, because you get lots of XP and treasure there, which means your time won't be wasted. To be fair, I find "Kill a shadow lord to prove your valour" far more logical than, say, "Kill a goblin to prove your valour". I mean, taking out a badass powerful undead, that's hero stuff. Killing a goblin even one of the dwarven children in Dwarftown could defeat in hand to hand combat? How ist that proving your "valour"? You drop the golden ball. You kick the golden ball. It slides to the west. Suddenly Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, appears! "That's not how you play Quidditch! are you even listening?" Which direction? (123456789) 4 Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, is hit by a bolt of acid! Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, is annihilated. You hear the ecstatic cries of a large crowd! |

I wonder if you got killed by a shadow lord, then became a shadow lord, then committed suicide, if that would count. "As for me, I feel priveleged to be among the only species able to make scientific inquiries." -unknown "Be sure to keep your distance if you don't have resistance." -DG |

*sigh* Crap. I already tried the pyramid. No luck. I guess I'll go for the tomb of the high kings or the dwarven graveyards, but what really sucks is that my char is a mindcrafter, high level undead may be a problem. |

I didn't think Shadow lords were spawned in the Dwarven Graveyard? Ladies and Gentleman, take my advice. Pull down your pants, and slide on the ice. |

They don't spawn in the Dwarven graveyard. A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks. |

Shadow lords are lvl 13 monsters. I recommend also ToHK dungeons. Or lvls above dwarven halls if you are feeling lucky, though monster generation is a lot smaller there. The rust monster touches your blessed Trident of the Red Rooster. Nothing happens. You laugh at the monster's pitiful attempt. |

They're not that tough to kill, and not really too uncommon in my experience. They look just like normal shadows, and I normally don't notice it's a lord until I get the message that I've just killed it. Shouldn't be too hard to find in the high kings dungeon, though it could take a bit of patience. Waldenbrook, the dwarven shopkeeper, mumbles: "I'd offer 9 gold pieces for yer dwarven child corpse." |

Wait this was Shadow Lords? I have to read carefully from now on, this font color sort of strains my eyes. If you would ask me I would say to look for a auto dooming item (if you are realy that desperate), and wait in a semi hard level, the big room would be a nice choice since you could run away, come on shadow lords are some of the slowest monsters in the game! Ooor if you aren't that desperate try the Tomb of high kings or if you get lucky wish for one. You attack the Ancient pink dragon with all of your force, but do not mange to harm it!

Look on the bright side, at least he didn't ask you to kill an ancient karmic dragon. |

Aren't Giant Racoons common as hell? They always show up in the UD... A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks. |

For the love of god, don't wish for a shadow lord if you get a wish. There are a lot of things out there you can use that wish on which are far more of a benefit. You drop the golden ball. You kick the golden ball. It slides to the west. Suddenly Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, appears! "That's not how you play Quidditch! are you even listening?" Which direction?

YAY!! I got lucky and found one in the big room while i was clearing it out for herbs. I know the big room can generate out of depth monsters, but that seemed way too easy. I found him before i had even finish exploring the whole floor. I wonder if Thrundarr's quest makes that particular monster more likely to appear? Or maybe i just got really lucky. |

Thank god he diddn't take my wish suggestion sserious. Someone needs to make a guide about Thudaars quest. Now for the sake of sakeness I hope you diddn't become the arena champion, and you have a potion of exchange, if you care about your kitty karma. If you do 'calm monster' helps, allot, well I found it did. You attack the Ancient pink dragon with all of your force, but do not mange to harm it! The Ancient Pink Dragon breaths a deathray, poision, fire, acid, ice, lightning, water, corruption, missle, petrefication, and stun breath at you. All of your equipment is torn apart!

There are several ways to save your kitty karma in the arena: 1. Aforementioned potion of exchange (shouldn't be cursed) 2. Wand of trap creation and knowledge of the trap layout (You need a teleportation trap) 3. Scroll of familiar summoning 4. Necromancy 5. Other means of summoning: Druid, Beastfighter, Elementalist, Necromancer class powers; wand of monster creation or Summon Monsters spell plus alarm trap or musical instrument to either make the monster attack the cat or maybe tame the monster 6. Teleportation spell or wand of teleportation (use it on the cat, not yourself! Scrolls might not be targetable, though) Calm Monster doesn't help with much, does it? Unless the fight is ended if the cat isn't hostile you anymore... You drop the golden ball. You kick the golden ball. It slides to the west. Suddenly Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, appears!

no don't worry about his other quests, I've already done them. I've been playing for about 8 years now. It's just the first time Thrundarr has given me such an obscure monster. On a somewhat related note, after clearing the big room, all of the herbs had died(thanks to several dark elven spider factories). I used several potions of holy water to create a 4x4 square with one missing, and now the other square refuses to regenerate! I have spent several thousand turns waiting, can a floor lose it's herb generating properties?? |

gut Registered user Painted this one too. Last page view: 4904 days, 20 hours, 36 minutes and 5 seconds ago. |
Scrolls of teleportation are not targetable. I have never heard of a room losing the ability to regenerate herbs. If your other three herb patches haven't dissapeared, they should regen. Spoiler Try applying the herbalism skill while standing on each herb patch. If you then pick carefully, it is safe to harvest until the herb bush becomes 'withered'. Perhaps even if the extra square won't regen, maybe the three you do have might 'suddenly look more vigerous'. Also, if you have (or can get) the gardening skill and an herb seed, you can make the room support herbs again. Put me in the 'fool filter', where I belong! |
