    Walkthrough

    Choosing your Class

  • To choose a particular class for your character, answer the questions with the virtue corresponding to that class. (e.g. Always choose Honor when ever that is a choice to become a Paladin.)

    Virtues

  • To become the Avatar you must be the supreme example of all eight virtues. Each virtue has a city you can go to to learn more about that particular virtue. Visit Hawkwind in Lord British's Castle to learn how you are progressing in each virtue.
  • Once Hawkwind tells you that you are worthy of Avatarhood in a particular virtue, visit its shrine to attain partial Avatarhood in that virtue.

    Runes

  • To enter a shrine you need to have the proper rune.
    • Compassion: At the foot of the stairs in the hotel in Britain.
    • Honesty: Three steps south of the tile on which Mariah is standing in Moonglow.
    • Justice: In Vorpal's prison cell in Yew (need key).
    • Humility: In the southeast corner of Paws (need key).
    • Valor: In the basement of the Hotel in Jhelom (need key).
    • Sacrifice: In the fire in Zircon's house in Minoc.
    • Honor: Located in the middle of the field where the old man is toiling.
    • Spirituality: In a secret room in Lord British's Castle, beside three treasure chests.

    Allies

  • There are eight allies that will join your cause, one of each class. The allies can be found in the city of their virtue. Some allies won't join you, though, until you have reached a certain experience level. The ally of the same class as your character will not join you.

    Modes of Travel

  • Use the moongates in the beginning of the game to move quickly across Britannia. The first moon, Trammel, determines where the moongate will appear, and the second moon, Felucca, determines the destination of the moongate.
  • Defeat pirates along the coast and you can take their ship.
  • The balloon is located just outside Dungeon Hythloth. Find its secret entrance at the back of Lord British's Castle and then cast the Exit spell.
