Is the actual body of Montaron anywhere to be found or do we have to give the fake bird to Xzar?

Damn. I was hoping there'd be a way out of it. Mod idea, anyone?

You have to give the bird over... but if I remember correctly, you can retrieve the body (it's locked in a chest in the dormitory area) once you've finished the quest. However, you can't do anything with it other than keep it for posterity, I suppose... :blink:

I searched every storage place in the hold, and couldn't find the body...or is that after you've handed the bird over?

Damn. And what's the point in that?

Thanks for the replies btw.

No point at all.

Quest Pack over at Pocketplane does something with this.

Yes, with QP installed Xzar may assign you a quest to retrieve Montaron's body for him if you manage to keep him alive.

How do you manage to get into Harper's Hold after giving the bird ? The door is locked, right ?

(Maybe when Jaheira invites you there ?)

I know it is a bug of sorts, but with Ease of Use the "No locks or Traps," option lets you either unlock the door or force it open with a high strength. That's how I always get in. Cheesy, but it works.

Edit - I should have said that this is how I get in the 2nd time to get the XP for the Montaron fate part.

You could talk to Xzar, then to the doorman? That was my way in.

And has anyone got a link to the QP then?

Thanks for the replies.

I was so disappointed when I found Montaron dead. I held hopes that he would be hiding (or imprisoned) somewhere, and you could add an evil thief to your collection (despite the manual listing the NPC:s claiming otherwise). :whistling:
