Not important yet, but you'll be glad you looked at it. Suffice it to say that it's one of the most random hints the game ever offers.

That's why I said he didn't have to worry about it until much, much later.

Come to think of it, I don't think it was called that until A4... that's strange.

Never had a custom title, probably never will. Can't say I'm disappointed, because I'm not really a huge fan of Drakey's theme.

I believe Cajun means a door in the far southwest corner of the demo area... which you don't have to worry about until later. Much later.

Specifically, you'll find the password in SPOILER on SPOILER.

And if you're really interested, that door marks an SPOILER.

Spoilers are fun!

Hrickis is not the vahnatai. Hrickis is a crazed necromancer up to the northeast of Formello, with a rather small lair and a pair of pylons guarding him.

Kravvit-Bok is the vahnatai, if I recall correctly. He has taken over a substantial part of Motrax's caves, and has four pylons guarding him.

Testing shade #2 in Avernum 4
Law Bringer
Member # 4153

Uh... the best advice I can give is "don't shield yourself so much". If you're not taking enough damage, try to take some more.

I seem to recall that I did this:
-Stow all but one character out of the shade's sight, and thus its range.
-Heavily shield that last character (my fighter), and sit them right next to the shade. (I think I used an invulnerability potion)
-Wait until the shade is done, and keep healing the one character who's being damaged.

Agreed. I've suggested this before, but everyone else seems skeptical.

We, collectively, need to get a life. :P

Agreed about the getting a life bit. But your theory could be applied to any of us here... who here is just an elaborate ruse?

As the others have said, you don't need to kill him to get the Emerald Chestguard... but it's fun to do it.

My technique, which is fairly reliable:

-Daze Nociduas before his turn in combat comes up.
-When he's dazed, he can't cast his spell, so he never finishes it.
-Once his turn passes, hit him with everything.
-Daze him again.
-Repeat.

(It helps to haste your mage for this part, and a second mage helps as well)

Since you don't have Erika, I think you just have to keep hacking away, and you'll reach the control panel eventually. I could be wrong, though.

EDIT: Found it. You get teleported 5 times, and then you can use the panel.

shades in Avernum 4
Law Bringer
Member # 4153

If you haven't reached Correlea (the Castle mage) yet, giving yourself the item (the Onyx Scepter) won't help, because your party probably isn't powerful enough to last one round with the shades.

Repel Spirit and straight-up hack'n'slash kill the shades fastest. Though I will say that for the shade of Ice and the shade of Sickness, Divine Retribution works great (particularly when they summon help). It's not so stellar against the shade of Anger, however.

On a tangent, I can understand forgetting the name of one mage with no previous Avernum appearances. However, the Onyx Scepter is another matter completely... how does one forget it?

This has been a standard feature of the entire Avernum series... I fail to see why it's a problem now. Granted, you had the option to conceal the grid in the previous games, but seeing the health bar is just standard.

No, enabling HTML would do a few unpleasant things:

-Trolls would be nastier.
-noobs would be nastier.
-TM would be nastier.
-Chaos would reign supreme.

So, in summary, no. The old, unused forums are dead for a reason. Hardly anybody needs them.
