Neverwinter Nights Hints
How do I get a key from Christov?
1 of 9: Try talking to him.
2 of 9: He doesn't like you much at first.
3 of 9: You need to gain his respect.
4 of 9: He's a vicarious kind of guy, so to gain his respect, you need to gain the respect of his big buddy, Jalek.
5 of 9: Talk to Jalek to find out what he's all about.
6 of 9: Drinking is the name of the game, and you're going to have to play it to get a key from Christov.
7 of 9: Keep accepting crazy-sounding drinks from Jalek until one of you falls unconscious.
8 of 9: You have to have a Constitution stat of 19 or higher to win the contest, but you don't need to win in order to gain Jalek's respect. (Though if your Constitution is less than 14, you'll pass out too quickly for him to think much of you as a drinker. Use Potions of Endurance to fix this problem if you need to.)
9 of 9: Once Jalek is all respectful of your drinking skills, talk to Christov about things to learn more about what's going on, and to get a key that'll open the locked basement door.
