Icewind Dale Hints
What should I do about Joril?
1 of 4: All you really have to do is get his badge, but there's a few different things you can do to get more XP.
2 of 4: If you have more than 12 charisma, you can talk him into giving you the badge that you'll need. You get a bonus 80,000 XP if you trick him into giving it to you.
3 of 4: If you're a Paladin, you can also demand that he free the slaves for a whole lot of XP, but he'll just end up attacking you.
4 of 4: No matter how you get it, you'll probably want to kill him anyways, as he has a lot of really nice items. You don't have to, though, and you get some extra XP if you don't blow your cover.
