Sorcerous Sundries
Spoiler warning: The following content contains unhidden spoilers. Read at your own risk. |
Sorcerous Sundries is a large magical marketplace in the Lower City of Baldur's Gate. Located south-east of the Lower City Central Wall waypoint, it is home to the wizard Lorroakan, as well as a vault containing powerful magical texts.
Accessing Ramazith's Tower
Within Sorcerous Sundries and up the stairs a Projection of Lorroakan will inform you that your "knowledge will determine your path forward." Four portals will open, each accompanied by a plaque giving a different explanation of what the Nightsong is, only one of which is correct. The pale blue portal on the East side with the plaque that reads "The Nightsong is an immortal being, the child of a deity" will transport you to Ramazith's Tower, while the others will kill whoever attempts to enter.
Accessing the Vaults
Upon speaking to Tolna Tome-Monger you can learn about the 'The Annals of Karsus', a tome written by Karsus himself that is stored within the Sorcerous Vault. If you pass a persuasion check you can convince her to reveal that the vault can be entered via her office.
Via Tolna's Office
Tolna's office is located up the stairs on the North East side of the building. To enter the office you will either need to acquire her key or pick the lock. Reading the 'Clasped Book' in the bookcase behind the entrance will open a portal to the vaults. Casting Fog Cloud over the door is a good way to deal with the lock and get your party inside the office without being seen by the guards.
Via Ramazith's Tower
The vault can also be accessed by going to Ramazith’s Tower and jumping down to a floor using the magically floating furniture. Once down you can click the button that says down and go lower floor and loot 2 legendary wizards items Markoheshkir and Robe of the Weave though it requires you to have see invisibility and pass 2 20 DC Arcane check , then click above button to return to the middle floor then go click the button that says vaults and it will teleport you to the vaults, where you can loot the only Artistry of War scroll in the game.
