Big thanks to all the people who contributed to the beta testing process - especially Rusalka, Lyria, LawfulGood. Also, special thanks to MonkAlex for help with the installer.
Installation:
This mod is designed to work with NWN2-MotB with or without SoZ. The mod does not modify any original MotB files but campaign.cam and module.jrl. The installer saves theirs as campaign.cam.bak and module.jrl.bak. The "install.txt" and "install_engl.txt" files can be found in the DarkSoul package, they explain the installation/uninstallation in detail. (The "Manual Uninstallation" section informs about locations of all fragments of the mod.)
The mod will be incompatible with any other mod using the same files, modifying the MotB campaign, adding new feats or spells.
Unzip the DarkSoul.zip file into a directory of your choice. It should contain the following items:
MotB_DarkSoul31.exe (to install)
install.txt
install_engl.txt
readmeDS.txt
unDS30.bat (to uninstall)
unDS30.exe (to uninstall)
unDS30.log (to uninstall)

To Kiya2123 the way I got Bishops soul was that when I was in the dreamscape with Gann and at the wall after its over you should go back to the wall and click on Bishop you should then be able to fight to get his soul out of the wall. After that another Pit Fiend will appear fight and kill it and on the body there will be a soul housing. Take the soul housing and go to the body of Bishop and his soul will be sucked into it. If you need help after that just let me know.

I'm sorry for the probably idiot question, but I'm stuck and I really want to play this mod, does anybody knows what do I have to do when I'm in the wall of the faithless? Because judging by what I have seen and read, I thought that I was suppose to retrive Bishop's soul from the wall at this point, but I have no clue how. :S

OK one of many NEG aura works. Malar anointing doesn't{my guess it's broken because of the urfin/cave/romance quest}and the malar blood is not triggering. @phoenixdawn23 there is a glitch for Bishop influence if you do the treeman and keep that bitchy witch alive (forget name} then talk to the two witches in mulsantir until they leave,BUT don't do the spy letter until after they leave, then do it and tell the merchant/spy you want 5000 gold He'll say he hasn't got it, tell him it's not good enough and the conversation should break then just talk to him again...each time you talk to to him you should get more influence with Bishop...It's easy to get 150 influence.I think You can do the romance after this although shouldn't be necessary...only needs loyal. It seems Gingery likes the good path otherwise the malar quest would work and I so wanted to be anointed in blood and do the complete evil route, and I don't think you can kill Bishop although you can sell his soul.

Hi! First of all thanks alot for creating this mod, the game just isn't the same without Bishop =) But right now I've got a problem: I managed to get Bishop's body out of the wall, but now it's just lying ther on the ground and I can't get his soul out. I keep bashing it, but somehow it just doesn't seem to work. What do I have to do to get his soul?
