Description
This mod is part three of 'The Infernal Crown,' a four-module campaign set in the Forgotten Realms. It is intended for single-player use with first level characters. You begin the campaign as a member of a secret society of vigilantes, whose motto is 'evil unto evil' (think Dirty Harry or the Punisher), so your character should be evil or neutral in alignment (lawful evil is ideal). Humans, Half-Elves, and Half-Orcs are ideal choices for character races. Dwarves, elves, halflings, and gnomes are not recommended. Single-class wizards, sorcerors, and rogues may have a tough time with the module, but henchmen are available to help you. No Hak-Paks are required. The Shadows of Undrentide and Hordes of the Underdark expansion pack are both required to play this campaign (older SOU-only versions are available on my website).
I have been enjoying this series of modules a lot but I have (like some others) ran into a bit of a snag. Spoilers, perhaps? I have explored the Catacombs and retrieved the three sections to the skeleton key. I could not retrieve the invisible key around the statue's neck but I think that is not important. I am at the Skull door but when I click on the keyhole, nothing happens. I have tried examining it, and using it, I have tried to combine the pieces and any other, foolish idea that came to mind and still the door will not budge. Some of these comments say the door is bugged. I certainly hope not. Some players have obviously gotten through the door so it must work. What am I missing? Thanks in advance.

Seriously consider adding some sort of haste item. All the areas in this module are huge and running through the forest and the city is a pain. Same problem with the skeleton key as many others are having. I've got the 3 pieces for the key, but clicking on the skeleton does absolutely nothing. Being forced to use the console to finish a module is very disappointing.

I have all three pieces to the key in the tomb. I press on the skeleton my char walks up to it and nothing happens. Am I missing something? Can you tell me what to do? Thanks.

Alright, I see that a couple of other people have had the same problem I have, they however seem to have fixed it themselves and didn't post what they did. I'm stuck in the catacombs, I have all 3 parts of the skeleton key, and I know that the keyhole is in the skeleton in the door frame. I can't however use the key. I click the skeleton and nothing happens, do I have to find a way to put the bloody key back together or something? I've tried reloading a couple of times but nothing works. Someone please help me, its hard to find a decent Blackguard Mod and I was enjoying this one up to this point. Thanks, Shawn
