We can set up an optional reward for players who choose to free Brown from his cell. Open up Brown's form and make sure he doesn't have a high aggression level, just to make sure Brown won't attack the player on sight. | We can set up an optional reward for players who choose to free Brown from his cell. Open up Brown's form and make sure he doesn't have a high aggression level, just to make sure Brown won't attack the player on sight. It should at least be lower than whatever positive disposition you gave the prisoner faction towards the player, but it wouldn't hurt to just set it to 0. | ||
Then set up a greeting for Brown: | Then set up a greeting for Brown: | ||

For stage 100, add the following journal entry: | |||
''Brown gave me the code for the combination lock on the chest. I need to enter 1-4-7 to unlock it. Once I've done that, I will need to go see Vilanus Villa in Imperial City. Vilanus will need to transfer ownership of my uncle's house to me.'' | ''Brown gave me the code for the combination lock on the chest. I need to enter 1-4-7 to unlock it.

Add another entry for stage 101: | |||
''I left Brown to rot in his cell. I need to go see Vilanus Villa in Imperial City so he can transfer my uncle's property to me.'' | |||
The stage result script is used to remove the quest object status from a number of items which are no longer needed and which the PC can now dispose of. This should be applied to BOTH of the possible stages. (Use whichever IDs you chose when creating these items.) | |||

We will need to look at altering Brown's behavior for the final release. We will need to add some AI in the next lesson to get him to run away. | We will need to look at altering Brown's behavior for the final release. We will need to add some AI in the next lesson to get him to run away. | ||
