Theif?Edit
I was trying to prepare for defense of Bruma after the shops were closed by selling items in my inventory. So I went to Olav's Tap and Tack to sell everything I had that was under 50 Gold. When I walked in, the places was crowded, Olav, Olfand, and the Thief Guild Fence were 3 out of 8 people in the room. After I finished selling my stuff to Olav, I turned to the table, and everybody declared "Thief!" or "You'll Never Get Away with This!". I then checked my inventory for stolen items to see what I accidentally picked up, but I didn't have anything. After a minute a Burma Guard runs in and starts attacking Olfand, until he died. On Olfands corpse was the Nord Winds key, and some clothes, I didn't see a stolen item.
I was more surprised that other people can steal and get caught, but I wondered why the guard attacked and didn't give him the options of pay the fine, or go to jail and all that.
It also seems a bit harsh to have the death penalty for taking a goblet or something off the table.
The room was also crowded, and I was busy with my own inventory and didn't notice any NPC's stealing anything. It could very well have been that the guard killed the wrong offender. Karplusan 06:30, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- You can only see what you have stolen in your own inventory. It is possible Olfand stole something, even if you can't see what it was. He likely stole some food, not a goblet. There is no justice system for NPCs like there is for the player character, which is why Olfand was attacked by guards and killed. --Timenn-<talk> 07:56, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Schedule TroubleEdit
I just followed Olfand around for a day, trying to check his schedule; as it turns out, the written schedule is a bit "off" right now and I'm not sure if we have some kind of random behavior going on:
The 6am and 8am cues are okay, but the 8pm is an odd one. If you stay in the shop with him and Skjorta, the shop stays open. No big deal, though - if you wait outside the shop until 8pm, it will close at 8pm as planned. Then, according to my observations, Olfand will wander around the main trading room until 10pm, then head down to Olav's. What package is active at 10pm? When I spied, Skjorta was there and Olfand never ate - Skjorta left, Olfand stayed, without eating - and went back to his shop and bed at midnight. I sense some kind of "Find" package (like Eilonwy), but I'm not sure. Also, the written schedule seems to give Olfand a few extra hours after his visit to Olav. Can anybody take a look in the CS and clear this one up? --Krusty 17:32, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
- As far as I can see, his schedule is this:
- Sleeps from midnight to 6am
- Offers services from 8am to 8pm
- Tries to find Skjorta in Nord Winds at 10pm then eats at the Tap & Tack until midnight
- Everything outside those times, he wanders near his editor location (his store)
- During MQ13 (>=30; <32) he stays in his shop offering services.
- The only time he offers services are during 1 and 5.
- It looks like the only tricky bit is the 8pm package. He has a Find package called
OlfandFollowSkjortatargeted at Skjorta in BrumaNordWinds with a chance of 50%. Skjorta's AI takes her for a 4 hour dinner at T&T from 8pm so it looks like it's a cute bit of AI where Olfand is supposed to walk up to her, tell her that he'll close up the shop and that she should head off to dinner. Doesn't work very well without the dialogue though... It doesn't have a duration on it, so I'm guessing that he'll bump into her and that's it - in other words it'll look like a standard OB AI screwup. rpeh •T•C•E• 14:33, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

- Thanks for checking; looks like the written schedule is more or less correct even if he will never find Skjorta inside the shop at 10pm. Do we need some kind of Note to explain the weirdness of it all?--Krusty 15:07, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
