  • How to unlock Prowler, Thieves Guild

    The promotion to Prowler requires you to perform a single assignment, Ahdarji’s Heirloom, for S’krivva in Bravil. Before she will give you the assignment though, you must fence two hundred gold worth of stolen goods. S’krivva will ask you to steal back a ring that was stolen by an independent thief. You must find the ring’s owner, Ahdarji, in Leyawiin – you can find her at her house, Five Claws Lodge at lunch, or at the Three Sisters’ Inn in the evening. Find her and she will tell you that an Argonian named Amusei stole it from her.

    Talk to the beggers in Leyawiin and they will tell you that Amusei is in the Leywiin Castle prison. Go to the Castle Dungeon and either bribe the jailor to let you visit Amusei or pickpocket the key off of him. Talk to Amusei and, if you give him a lockpick as a bribe, he will tell you that the ring originally belonged to the Countess of Leyawiin and she has now recovered it. Return and talk to Ahdarji and she will offer to pay you double to steal the ring.


    Enter the Castle, go straight through to the Throne Room, and wait until 1:00 Am. Then, enter the Basement all the way to the right of the thrones and find the open-topped barrel against the south wall. The lever inside will open a secret passage through the torture chambers and into the Countess’ bedroom. Pick the lock on the door at the end, turn right, and pick the lock on the door at the end of this hall. Another lever will open the exit. Go up the stairs to the left and through the door. Avoid the guard, turn left, and break into the Countess’ Room. The jewelry box is on the table to the right of the bed. Break into it, steal the ring, escape the same way you entered, and sell the ring to Ahdarji. Return to S’krivva and receive your promotion. The achievement will unlock when the conversation with S’krivva is over.

  • i swear, i cannot complete the quest where you have to steal the countesses ring for the life of me. i can get the ring just fine, but every time i go to leave their room, the guard comes up and stops me. anyone have a hard time with this? any advice?
  • READ no.1 Dude you have to be really sneaking and wait until the guard goes up the stairs opposite the room then get the ring and leg it!
  • You can always just kill the guard and pay the blood price. 1000 gold. Thats what I did.
  • What I did was just leg it until I'd escaped the city and reached the nearby Oblivion gate - the daedra killed the guard, so I could wait until morning, sneak back into the city and give back the ring.
  • If you can, enchant 4 pieces of armour and say a ring, with the invisibility/Chameleon enchantments. That way you have 100% sneak capabilities. If you're short on cash, try lowering your difficulty to easy and rob the Rockmilk Cave over and over for some easy cash and selling the armour and weapons. You may have to make 3 or more trips (depending on how much you can carry) though but it's worth it. Also you could visit Fort Farragut for 10 poisoned apples (worth 300 gold each, so a possible 3000 gold). And when you open the back entrance in the tree trunk, that's a quick enter and exit (entering this way, the skeletons remains dead too btw so you can easily go and rob their weapons and armour again for more cash - their armour and weapons improve as you level up more).
  • Can it get glitched? In my game in her is sleeps a man, and the ring is not in the box.
  • in her room*
