Now I travel to the Circle Tower and speak with First Enchanter Irving. I then speak with Connor and promise to free him from his demonic possession. I go into Connor's bed room to the left, and get the Codex entry for "Aveline, Knight of Orlais". This essentially commits the party to resolving the quest in a way that results in Connor dying. Be forewarned, if you attempt to enter the room where Arl Eamon lies unconscious on a bed to the north, the Desire Demon will take full control over Connor and force the party into combat. Connor will be in the middle of a large room. Now I go east and then north from the vault.

Eamon's Shield (+6 defense, +25 stamina) - In my view, and the view of many other Dragon Age players, the best shields will be the ones that provide bonuses to both defense and stamina/mana.Chevalier's Mace (+5% cold resistance, -5% spirit resistance, +2 cold damage) - This weapon doesn't fit into my long term plans.The Fox's Bow (chance to dodge missile attacks) - I won't have any use for this.The notable unique items to be found are: Inside will be several chests with items, most of them random. The door to the room to the north requires either a very high ability to unlock doors (Device Mastery + Cunning) or the Redcliffe Vault Key to open. I run into more undead, and again I overpower them during physical combat. Now I return to the hallway that runs north-south, and then go east. The room to the south has a chest that holds the Stone Dragon Statuette. The room to the west has a chest with a random item, as well as a Book that provides a Codex entry for "Journal for the Tranquil". There will be two small rooms nearby, one to the west and one to the south. I get attacked by two more Skeletons, which I dispatch easily. I return to the hallway and then continue south.

One of the containers in the room has a book called "The Guerrins of Ferelden", which I gift to Wynne. I then go through the first door on the right. Note how the Blight Wolf, having good attacking ability and a good defense rating, is able to hold the rear while the other party members go to work on the front side.

I am nonetheless able to overpower them using physical combat. I continue down the hallway, and get ambushed by several undead from all sides.

I then show the script that I always set when I summon a Blight Wolf. Leliana has recently acquired the Master Ranger talent, so she can now summon a Blight Wolf.
