Dragon Age II Hints

The Black Emporium

  • 1 of 6: After finishing the "A New Home?" main plot quest, read the letter on the writing desk about the Black Emporium.
  • 2 of 6: Travel to the Black Emporium on the Kirkwall Day or Kirkwall Night map to finish the quest, then look around the place for things to do.
  • 3 of 6: In the main emporium room, talk to Xenon the Antiquarian to get a codex entry, then look to the east for a chest of discarded weapons and armor that you can loot.
  • 4 of 6: Look to the north of Xenon for two merchant stores to check out: "Emporium's Crafting Materials" and "Emporium's Relics and Antiques."
  • 5 of 6: To the west of Xenon is a Mirror of Transformation that you can use to change your main character's appearance and portrait.
  • 6 of 6: There are also four items scattered about the area that each give a codex entry when examined.
