Soul of an Ash Ghoul
  • 1 of 5: You have to be at least a Wizard in the guild to get this quest from Skink.
  • 2 of 5: He wants you to trap an Ash Ghoul's soul in a grand soul gem and give it to him. He gives you two magic scrolls that cast Soultrap and two grand soul gems to work with.
  • 3 of 5: However, it's much easier to trap souls by enchanting a cheap weapon to cast Soultrap every time it strikes. See my Enchanting Tips for more info.
  • 4 of 5: You can find Ash Ghouls in a lot of places in the game, especially inside the Ghostfence and in Sixth House bases. You don't have to go where Skink sends you (the Yakin base at location 5 on the Tel Aruhn map). Any Ash Ghoul's soul, Dagoth or not, will do.
  • 5 of 5: Return to Skink when you have the requested soul to turn it over.
