The player first encounters Meli when he has stolen [[Barth|Barth's]] mother's locket and he has confronted her about it. Depending on the player's intervention, he can leave either with or without it, and might reveal that he stole the locket because it reminded him of his own mother's.

Involvement[edit | edit source]

Act One[edit | edit source]

If Aradin Beno Aradin Beno and his crew leave the Emerald Grove, Meli can be found in the Tiefling Hideout X: 87 Y: 71, practicing pickpocketing on a dummy.

Pickpocketing Barth[edit | edit source]

Main article: Return the Locket

If Aradin's crew stays for a drink, Meli spawns at The Hollow X: 174 Y: 544 pretending to search an open crate while the crew heads to a nearby table. The party can watch Meli steal a Brass Locket from Barth Barth's pocket and run up the ladder where Barth catches him. Initiating conversation with either one allows the choice to intervene and protect Meli, convince him to return the locket, or let Barth do what he wants.

There are four options:

  • Protecting Meli, "Don't lay a finger on that child." ( DC 10 Persuasion check or DC 10 Intimidation check) and he runs off with the locket.
  • Convincing Meli to return the locket ( DC 5 Persuasion check or DC 15 Intimidation check) and he might be persuaded to reveal that he stole the locket because it reminded him of his mother's.
  • Letting Barth strike Meli, the locket falls out of his pocket, and the nearby guard Ikaron Ikaron comes over to investigate the disturbance.
  • If already having pickpocketed the locket from Meli, it is possible to return it to Barth. He's good, but I'm better. This impresses Meli and placates Barth.

After the encounter, Meli runs to the Tiefling Hideout where he can be found near the practice dummy and Barth returns to his crew at the table in The Hollow. If speaking with Barth afterward, he may reveal that the locket was given to him by his mother while she was on her deathbed. If allowing Meli to take the locket, it can be recovered from the Tiefling Hideout and returned to Barth. He can be persuaded to tell a backstory about the locket and its importance to him.
