Interactions[]
May the Best Thief Win[]
The Hero needs to prove their worth as a thief by stealing a diary from a house in the city. The twist is that they have two competitors who also wish to join the guild.
The Elven Maiden[]
The Thieves Guild has a need to "acquire" Llathasa's Bust from her tomb. While the job looks simple, it has more to it than a simple theft.
Misdirection[]
Because of the recent events, Hieronymus Lex has pulled guards from all over the Imperial City to the Waterfront in an attempt to root out members of the guild including the Gray Fox.
Turning a Blind Eye[]
Methredhel or Amusei appear in any major city with a message from the Gray Fox. The cowl-wearing leader resides in Helvius Cecia's House in Bruma.

At the Imperial City Waterfront:
"So you are looking for the Thieves Guild as well. Armand Christophe will decide who is worthy and who is not. I've been preparing to join the guild for years. If you're nice to me, maybe I'll show you a few tricks." "Don't try to slow me down. I'm going to get that diary before you." After obtaining the diary: "Thief! You stole that diary from me. Now I have to wait to get into the guild." |

Conversations[]
Armand Christophe: "The Thieves Guild is not a myth. We are followers of the Gray Fox, and I am his Doyen. Merely by finding me, you have passed the first test. It's unusual for us to have three potential recruits at the same time. Rather than the normal test of skill, I'm going to make this a contest." Amusei: "That's not fair!" Armand Christophe: "Methredhel, you know the rules. However, for Amusei and the newcomer, let me state them clearly. Whoever brings me the diary of Amantius Allectus, without killing him, will be invited into the guild." Methredhel: "Hah! I'll have it before sunrise!" Armand Christophe: "It's somewhere in the Imperial City. The beggars will help you locate it, for a price. I can sell you lockpicks if you need them. One more thing. You cannot kill each other during this trial. We may be thieves, but we're not murderers."
