Thieves Guild #6: "A Noteworthy Mission"

I really, really liked how the writing sets this one up. There's just a casual mention of a black market going up for a particular unique item, and the guild will pay you for bringing it. I've got to use that more often.

Thanks Interkarma :)

Knightly Order #13: "Pursuit"

A nice break from the usual "go to place, do thing" tasks that are Daggerfall's general fabric. The spawning is a bit slow if you just wait for it, so this is best mixed with some other activities.

Mages Guild #10: "Culling the Herd"

Interkarma actually told me how to properly use "UseItem" conditions back in November, and this is the first time I'm putting them into practice. Wow!

The result is something I very much like. I'm going to be doing this more often, and I have a couple of quests that I need to edit to add this sort of thing in. I disliked how in Morrowind the Mages Guild became Backstabber Central so I've tried to avoid that, but this is Daggerfall, after all; politics and treachery are part of its world.

Thieves Guild #7: "Arm Twisting"

More fun usage of the "item used" condition. I can see so many possibilities opening before me right now.

I wasn't sure whether to make this a Dark Brotherhood quest or Thieves Guild. Thieves Guild only had 6 quests and I wanted to give them another, and this seems simple enough to match their personality (rather than an all-out slaughter, which is DB territory), but it still seems a bit macabre for them. Based on feedback I could change it to Dark Brotherhood later.
