The Symbol in the Flesh: Crested Mistmoore Shield

Level 68

This quest starts by examining the Glyph Tattoed Flesh, dropped by a Glyphed ghoul in Loping Plains.

1. Find someone that can tell you about the tattooed flesh. Talk to Tavish Dracinov in the Village of Somborn in Loping Plains ( -395, 12, -53 ). This step can only be done if you are level 66 or above, otherwise she will ignore you.
2. She will send you to speak with Amares D’Venhz at the other end of the room ( -373, 12, -33 ).
3. He tells you that the symbol is the glyph of Mordiggian, a cannibalistic creature that stalks the Plains, and he sends you to gather:
   • 20 chunks of raw meat from bone golems (a carrion abhorrence) in Breathless Hollow ( -150, 7. 6 ). The rictus gnawers in Mistmoore Catacombs also update this step.
   • 20 congealed blood drops from stirges (a borebeak gorger, a borebeak sipper, a borebeak stabber, etc.) found in Mistmoore Catacombs.
4. Return to Amares D’Venhz. He sends you to find information about a relic or weapon suitable for ghoul hunting.
5. Talk to Havras "Hack" Scutter  in Somborn ( -310, 11, -49 ).
6. He tells you to create a weapon suitable for slaying a powerful undead ghoul lord. This will launch one of 2 sub-quests
