Fable/Temples

Because they are so complicated (at first) and there are so many people saying so many different things about the temples, I decided to give a little time to them and added this section.

To know what your alignment level is, go to your personality, count the empty blocks on your alignment side and subtract that number from 7. Note, you want to use your BASE alignment level, so any tattoos or clothing that modifies your alignment have to be removed.

You will need to have access to both Temples for this to work.

Chapel of Skorm
The Chapel of Skorm can be found in Darkwood, it is located east of Darkwood Camp, so find your way to Darkwood Camp to get to the chapel.

Skorm is basically the devil and all the bad guys worship him, so this chapel is an evil place. Left of the chapel is a chest.


 * Inside the chest you will find:
 * 1 x Assassin Shirt

Inside the chapel are two evil priests, you can kill them for GOOD points or you can do their bidding for EVIL points. If you wish to do their bidding you can earn prizes.


 * Prize 1: Gift of extended age (average of 8 years off your age)
 * Prize 2: Skorm's Bow (best ranged weapon in the game)
 * Prize 3: Necromancer Title

To earn these prizes you must bring sacrifices. Sacrifices can be any villager who is willing to follow you, mercenaries and even your own wives. This is the most complicated part of the game because it is never consistent.

Always save before making sacrifices!

Although you can in theory get all the rewards at this point in the game it may not work for you.

To get Skorm's Bow you need to get at least 750 EVIL points from a single sacrifice, if it is your first sacrifice it seems to be easier.

The gift of extended life and the Necromancer title can be earned by getting 400 or more EVIL points per sacrifice AFTER getting Skorm's Bow.

So, to sum it up in 3 steps, this is what you have to do:
 * 1) Sacrifice someone for 750 or more EVIL points.
 * 2) Sacrifice someone for 400 or more EVIL points.
 * 3) Sacrifice someone for 400 or more EVIL points.

The more to the GOOD alignment you are, the easier this is. A level 5 GOOD character (over half way) who sacrifices the mercenary from Oakvale at the right time of night will earn 800 EVIL points, a level 3 GOOD character at the right time of night with the same mercenary will only earn 650-700 EVIL points.

It is best if you do this in only 3 sacrifices. If you simply can't get it wait until later, I will comment on the chapel again.

Temple of Avo
The Temple of Avo can be found in Witchwood, it is on the path from Witchwood Cullis Gate to Knothole Glade, you can't miss it, literally.

To get the sword out of the stone, increase your Physique by 5, Health by 2 and Toughness by 3. If this is more than what it takes to max your stats, maxing them will work as well.

Rewards
It is very important to not try and do either Temple on its own, you need to do them together. Donate gold at the Temple of Avo during the day and sacrifice people at the Chapel of Skorm at night. On average you will need 50,000 gold to complete the Temple of Avo. You don't have to do both temples together, but doing it this way will ensure you get rewards from both.

Remember, use your base alignment.

Note the last method that takes level 2 good to level 2 evil and makes you turn EVIL by killing guards, this is because donating gold at the Temple of Avo BEFORE you get the rewards can screw up your ability to get the rewards. You very first donation EVER, should be the donation for the Sentinus. If you don't want to kill guards because you're 'GOOD' then go kill bandits and what not until you are at least level 3 GOOD alignment.

With any scenario, save before you start and if it fails, load and try again. In the cases where it fails at the Temple of Avo, add a little bit more gold (up to like 10%). But if it is the Chapel of Skorm, try sacrificing at midnight. Some players have had success sacrificing at other times, but others swear midnight is the best time, so it may be worth a shot if you are having problems.

Also note, that you do need to be a higher GOOD alignment level to get Skorm's Bow, I recommend at least level 5, even though it can be done at level 4, its a lot harder because of the amount of EVIL points you have to obtain in one sacrifice.

If you are only good and don't want any evil
In that case, you can't ever get the Chapel of Skorm rewards. I must say, this is incredibly stupid and because of the huge costs, I don't recommend it. The numbers I've given you are numbers I've used ONLY ONCE, unlike the above method where you accomplish both temples at the same time and tested each value over and over until I got the best number to put in this guide. So if these numbers don't work for you, tough, I tested them at the alignment levels listed, it worked, I got it, I had to test it a couple times when I didn't get it, I consider it a waste of 2 hours testing the temples for you losers not willing to compromise your alignment but are still too lazy to not figure this stuff out for yourself. Sorry, I just had to rant because I had to spend so much time earning money to get the Sentinus at a level 7 GOOD alignment character.

STARTING @ Level 5 or higher GOOD Alignment
 * 1) Donate 90,000 gold  -  The Sentinus
 * 2) Donate 30,000 gold  -  gift of youth
 * 3) Donate 20,000 gold  -  Paladin title

STARTING @ Level 3 or 4 GOOD Alignment
 * 1) Donate 60,000 gold  -  The Sentinus
 * 2) Donate 20,000 gold  -  gift of youth
 * 3) Donate 10,000 gold  -  Paladin title

STARTING @ Neutral to level 2 GOOD Alignment
 * 1) Donate 45,000 gold  -  The Sentinus
 * 2) Donate 10,000 gold  -  gift of youth
 * 3) Donate 5,000 gold  -  Paladin title

If you are only evil and don't want any good
You're screwed.... like seriously screwed. Sacrifice like 10 villagers and then try sacrificing the Avo mercenary, then the Oakvale mercenary, then the Bowerstone South mercenary and finally the Twinblade camp mercenary. But you will need to sacrifice a lot of villagers and wives.
