    [​IMG] There's plenty of statues of this guy in both The Vale Of Shadows and The Temple Of The Forgotten God. But, who is he??

    I think you can click on the outside statue and get a description... Though I'm not sure. It's been a few years. ;)

    The only description you get is that it is a robed man.

    Ah. Not very descriptive. :D

    I'm pretty sure I found out who it was at one point in the game though... But I just can't remember how or when. Sorry.

    He's the guy that bailed from Kuldahar with the Heartstone Gem. Like, a hundred years ago or something. Maybe like 50. His name isn't really ever given, unless it's on the tomb right before you get to the *critical item* that you came all that way for.

    Arundel first mentions him. There's some little tiny clues here and there along the way. But his tomb is the final piece that you find.

    Down in the temple, just past the long hallway with about 4 acolytes standing guard/in your way. His tomb is in plain sight, along the top of the screen.

    I think he hung out there for a little while, and moved. Remember, the Black Wolf was in there too. And some people before him, which is why he chose that site for his tomb, too. Everyone's been holed up in the Vale, at some point. There's all kind of minor tombs in the Vale, for the workers and before.

    I'm not trying to explain away anything. I don't really remember if he setup camp for a while in the Vale and then moved to the mountain tops. That sounds almost vaguely familiar; he ran into the Black Wolf's guards, and had to move elsewhere?
