    So I pretty much have everything in the ice temple done except for getting Caged Fury out of the altar.

    I killed Ondambo (or whatever his name was) pretty quickly without learning the name of the spirit and I had Nickademus teach me his wizardly knowledge. (not knowing that he was only one of two ways to learn the name)

    According to the walkthrough the only 2 ways to get the spirit out is to learn his name or intimidate him.

    So now I have this altar with a spirit in it and none of my characters have enough intimidate skill to get him out that way so my question is whether or not I am royally boned?

    If your stuck, just alter the Initimidate skill of one of your characters, for just this one time. It really beats starting over...

    I didn't know you could do that. Would you mind explaining how?

    Also, can you safely put it back?

    With Dalekeeper I believe, but you will get better opinions/directions from some others on these boards. The SP group here is very helpful... and yes, if you can change it once, you can change it again. If you search the Icewind Dale 2 forum - searching for "Dalekeeper", you will get a few hits that should lead you to your desired request.

    [​IMG] Heheh, this is the first time I've heard of someone hack-n-slashing his way into an unsolvable problem. From the sound of things, you are indeed in an impasse. Personally I'd reload an old save and play the entire temple again, because you also missed out on big quest bonuses:o (killing the abishai group earns you much less XP than helping them). But editing your Intimidate skill is a viable workaround. You can achieve this with either Dalekeeper or NearInfinity. I'd advise the latter, because it's also an excellent 'explorer' of sorts to browse through game code, handy for other problems and referencing in the future:thumb:.

    The altar devil's real name is Aleiny-kzzrt or Caged Fury.

    When you've killed everything you can say something like "there's no one left to feed you, surrender" during the dialogue to get rid of the spirit. Special skills are not needed for this, my character had only 2 charisma and no skillpoints spent for diplomatic skills.
