Speaking to [[Klaus]] and [[Benji]], the party can attempt to enter the Circus through the front gate. Claus stops them, stating that he is checking every visitor to see if they are a vicious murderer. He has his ghoul sniff the party, who exclaims that they smell of "iron and blood." Determining that he can't subject other patrons to the stink, he denies entry. However, he can be reasoned with: | |||

==== Sneaking In ==== | |||
The gatekeeper can easily be bypassed by walking further down the gate towards a group of children {{Coords|-22|-34}}. Here, there is a gap in the gate that can be jumped over. | |||

Towards the end of the show, he states he plans to perform a magic trick, but needs a volunteer with "nerves of steel and the heart of a lion." In doing this, he singles out the party. Any party member can be volunteered to go up, or Dribbles' volunteer (the currently active party member) can agree to go up. | ||

[[Lucretious]] moves towards the stage area after the attack. Speaking with her starts the quest, as she requests the party find what is left of Dribbles in exchange for fabulous rewards. As a necromancer, Lucretious even preferres the clown dead and raised to a living employee. | |||

[[Clown's Severed Hand|Dribble's Hand]] is on a plate in [[Popper|Popper's]] store inside the Circus of the Last Days. It can either be stealthily stolen like any other object, or the party can attempt to simply go up and grab it. If the party attempts to grab it, they are stopped by Popper, who says it is his "special hand." Alternatively, If the party has found [[Note from BUSINESSLORD POPPER]] (buried behind the Dribbles' stage) they can simply confront Popper about the hand in conversation. | |||

To counter the cheeky kobold, the talking party member will have a variety of lines to attempt to get the severed hand from him for free: | ||

==== Torso ==== | |||
[[Clown's Severed Torso|Dribbles' Torso]] can be found during [[Solve the Open Hand Temple Murders]], or simply when exploring the [[Open Hand Temple]]. To get to the torso's location, the party should use a hatch in the kitchen {{Coords|-62|3}}. There are pools of blood which can be followed to the actual murder site. However, bloody puddles abruptly stop in front of what appears to be a solid stone wall. | |||
There are two ways to get past it and into the secret tunnels beyond. The first is to go into the adjoining room to the south and jump over the breach in the wall {{Coords|16|-1026}}. Still, the 'proper' way to enter the tunnels is by locating the secret buttons in the crypt. These buttons are obscured by heraldry {{Coords|17|-1000}} and {{Coords|18|-1015}} on the walls to the left and right of the stone wall. | There are two ways to get past it and into the secret tunnels beyond.

Once inside the secret tunnels, three doppelgangers immediately become hostile. After defeating the doppelgangers, Dribbles' torso can be looted off the dead body of [[Penela Lumpensicks]] {{Coords|63|-1028}}, alongside with the first of [[Orin's Ritual Note]]s. | Once inside the secret tunnels, three doppelgangers immediately become hostile.

==== [[Clown's Severed Arm]] | ==== Arm ==== | ||
[[Clown's Severed Arm|Dribbles' Arm]] is in the Lower City in the [[Peartree House]] {{Coords|32|-96}} located southeast of [[Sorcerous Sundries]]. The Peartree House is a boarded-up building, so the barricade need to be destroyed before entering. It is declared a restricted area, so breaking into it will make the nearest Flaming Fist patrol hostile. | |||
After the boards have been destroyed, the party will find a hatch hidden under a Traveller's Chest. After moving the chest aside they may descend the hatch to find another murder scene. Looting the corpse of [[Courageous Little Kimmabeth]] grants the severed arm and another ritual note. | After the boards have been destroyed, the party will find a hatch hidden under a Traveller's Chest.

[[Clown's Severed Leg|Dribbles' Leg]] is in [[Lavernica's Home]] {{Coords|-76|-70}} which hovers above Araj Oblodra's [[Crimson Draughts]], southwest of the Lower City Central Wall waypoint in the Lower City. After lockpicking the front door, use the hatch to get inside the house basement. There are many dead spiders in the upper room and dead drow and duergar in the basement.

It can be entered by either lockpicking the front door, or taking the rear side: from the balcony or through the door under it, using spells like {{SAI|Grant Flight}} or {{SAI|Misty Step}}, shooting an [[Arrow of Transposition]] or simply jumping high enough. The front door is red-outlined, and the street is patrolled by a group of Flaming Fist. | |||
The hatch to the basement is under the stairs on the ground floor. In the basement, the foot is straight ahead on the corpse of a blue dragonborn [[Winslow Reginol]], along with yet another Orin's note. | The hatch to the basement is under the stairs on the ground floor.
