Walkthrough

Can be done with apprehensive faction.

Talk to Hekzin G`Zule in the rogue guild. He will say he is working on some new type of armor.

You say, 'Hail, Hekzin G`Zule'

Hekzin G`Zule says 'How's it going, scrub? Correct me if I'm wrong, but you appear to be a rogue. If you're a [new rogue], it's my job to test your skill. If you are not, then by speaking with me, I see you show interest in [joining this house of rogues].'

You say, 'I am interested in joining this house of rogues'

Hekzin G`Zule says 'We of the Ebon Mask must first be sure you are skilled with a blade. At the same time, we are attempting to create a new type of armor for our rogues. So it is the test of each young rogue to take this bag into Nektulos and fill it with three moss snake skins and three snake fangs, then combine them. We get the bag and you earn a little respect as well as the [Dark Shield of Ebon].'

You receive an Empty Bag in which you need to combine three Snake Scales and three Snake Fangs. This produces a Bag of Snake Parts. Give this to Hekzin.

Hekzin G`Zule says 'Fine work for a scrub. Maybe one day you will be able to test this new snakescale armor out. For the moment you shall take the [Dark Shield of Ebon] if you do not own one already.'
