    I have played through this game many times, but this is the first time I have noticed this rogue stone in my pack. I tried to stack it on another and it wouldn't. Then I looked at the description. It says, "I am in the Bridge District of Athkatla. Why kind of tricks are you playing on me?" Does this have to do with the Twisted Rune? I am in ToB now so I can't go back to the bridge district to look around.

    I've never noticed that description before. But you need a rogue stone to access the Twisted Rune in the Bridge district.

    That rogue stone is usable for entry to the twisted rune, I noticed a bug that uses all your rogue stones when entering so I now drop all rogues outside except for this one and collect them after.

    Actually, I believe that the rogue stone with the description is actually unable to trigger the portal. By the way, that stone was added by a mod, I forget which one, and is not in the unmodded game at all.

    I thought that rogue stone was from the unmodded game. It is the one you get from the Guarded Compound in the Temple District. I think Ketta drops it. You can't sell it, and it will trigger the door. It will also give you a dialog option to talk to the lich about the stone. If it is not in the SoA OC, is it part of the-expansion-that-shall-not-be-named-in-this-forum? Do you have said expansion installed? If so, you should be posting you-know-where.

    I'm with bombur on this one. In any case, the mods deathbringer has are unlikely to install a new rogue stone. I have that stone in my item files too, but that won't help since i have countless mods, the unnamed expansion etc installed.

    This is my first time using Baldurdash so that would explain it.

    I have never come acros this stone, I have recently completed the Guarded Compound with all of the mods Deathbringer had but I am pretty sure that I did not find a rouge stone there at all, and at the very least not one that didn't stack with my other ones.

    I've never used Baldurdash, but I've gotten the stone.

    I just started a new game as an assassin. I have cleared out the guarded compound and guess what. I found it on Koshi's (the guy with the Celestial Fury) corpse. It did allow me into the Twisted Rune. Shangalar (the lich)thanked me for killing Koshi then he said it was time to play.
