Fable The Lost Chapters Guide ***WARNING SPOILERS***

This is a guide to Fable, The Lost Chapters and contains MANY spoilers so be warned before you click There’s plenty of information on Fable here, from locations to all the Legendary Weapons in the game (at least those I’ve found), Silver Chests, their contents and how many Silver Keys you need to open each one, Books and their locations, Demon Doors and much more.

Age and Spell Choice

If you don’t want to end up a 65 year old Hero, you need to level up as little as possible, the spells I used through the game the first time were Slow Time, Divine Fury, Heal Life and Summon. Enflame is actually a much better attack spell than Divine Fury, as you are immune to harm as you punch the floor and not only does the spell do massive amounts of damage but it also knocks all your opponents down.

I tried Force Push late in the game as many swore by it but I didn’t find it all that useful, may be a better spell if you prefer using a bow or crossbow. If you like summoning spells there are 2 to choose from, Summon and Ghost Sword, the former raising an upgradeable undead minion (when it kills a more powerful foe you will always raise an undead version), the latter summoning as many swords as you have levels in the spell. Heal Life is good for those quests where you need to keep NPC’s alive through hostile areas and Slow Time is a fantastic spell which is a massive help when in combat.

As for Skill, I used Accuracy the least but 3 ranks in Guile will grant you the ability to steal from shop keepers and the 4th rank will allow you to pick the lock of doors that are locked.

Infinite Cash in Fable

A fully decked out rented house can bring in quite a lot of cash every 30 minutes, however, if you want to keep your houses but still earn money the best way is to collect all your Health Potions and Will Potions as you go through the game, don’t worry if you will never need to use them, as you go through the game buy them all up at every opportunity, don’t worry, they’re pretty cheap considering how useful they are. When you get a lot of them go to a vendor that will buy and sell them, buy him out of those potions then sell the maximum number of potions in one go you can then buy them back and repeat the process.

When a vendor has none of the items they trade in and that you can sell them, they will pay a marked up price, when they have a lot of something you want they will sell at a reduced rate, hence the possibility to earn plenty of cash if you are willing. This system works even better with gems.

Getting Slim in Fable

Getting slim in Fable takes a little more effort than Fable 2, fortunately it is also free. If you managed to get obese in the game, say if you use food to restore your health or needed to get big to get through that Demon Door in Barrow Fields, the only way you can slim down in Fable is to get involved in lots of melee combat.

Archon’s Shrine is the best place to do this without having to zone out and in again, there is a little path not shown on the map right near where the MOB’s spawn that leads to the stream, once you have defeated these monsters, travel to the stream and on your way back the monsters will respawn again! You can do this as many times as you want.

The Book Collection Quest – Books Needed and Itemised by Area

Probably the hardest Silver Key in the game to get is from the School Teacher, he asks you to collect books for his school children as Lady Grey sold most of the ones they had off. Be warned though, you will have to steal many of these items from people’s homes. Here are a list of the 25 Books you need to get that Silver Key itemised by area.

Demon Doors

There are 15 Demon Doors in Fable, they were created to guard treasures and to come up with riddles and games to thwart those who would wish to possess the treasures they guard, here they are listed in alphabetical order along with the requirements for entering and what they guard.

Abandoned Road

This Demon Door wants to see you in 3 sets of suits clothes, to gain access you will need the full sets. First, talk to the Demon Door then change into Bright Plate Armour and talk to the Demon Door again, then change into the Dark Will User set of clothes (you can get these for beating the guardians of the Darkwood Marshes Demon Door) and talk to him again, lastly change into the full set of Bandit Gear and talk to him one last time to gain entry.
Treasure Guarded: Dollmaster’s Mace.

Barrow Fields

This door wants to see a Hero who is VERY fat, obese in fact, if you want to check how big your Hero is, go to your Inventory Screen and it is under Personality. To get big you can eat pretty much anything but I think pies work best.
Treasure Guarded: Will Master’s Elixir.

Darkwood Bordello

This Demon Door wants a real man! Have sex with the prostitutes inside 10 times and he will allow you entry, there is an old woman you can sleep with for 50 gold pieces, making her the cheapest option, I didn’t think of it till now but I wonder what her fade out dialogue is like!
Treasure Guarded: Pimp Hat.

Darkwood Marshes

This door wants you to defeat his guardians, when you are ready accept his challenge and defeat the Hobbes he summons.
Treasure Guarded: Full set of Dark Will User clothes.

Greatwood Caves

This Demon Door wants to see a large Combat Multiplier, luckily for you there’s a big Earth Troll right out front and plenty of Hobbes in the nearby cave to bash!
Treasure Guarded: The Cutlass Bluetane.

Greatwood Gorge

If you’re an evil character you will not have any probs with this door, it will allow you to go right in. If not however, eating Crunchy Chicks or killing NPC’s outside will allow you in.
Treasure Guarded: Wellow’s Pickhammer.

Grey House

To enter this Demon Door you need to have married Lady Grey. The easiest way to do this is to first contact the Prisoner in Bowerstone North who is due to be executed, when you have the proof you need to confront Lady Grey she will appear on the stairs in the Cellar of Grey House, she’ll want you to defeat Thunder first (which also gives you access to another Demon Door, it’s just a way out back to Headsman’s Hill, but in the cave you defeat Thunder is a Mana Augmentation).
Treasure Guarded: Ronok the Axe.

Headsman’s Hill

(Sub Plot Demon Door)
As noted in the Grey House Demon Door above, this opens when you fight Thunder to win the hand of Lady Grey.
Treasure Guarded: None, but there is a Mana Augmentation in the cave you defeat Thunder.

Heroe’s Guild

This is the easiest or most difficult Demon Door to open, easy if you’ve already worked it out or reading this now, all you need do is turn the lamp that you got on your graduation on and talk to the door, that’s it
Treasure Guarded: Elixir of Life. Book (Making Friends). Howl Tattoo. Book of Spells.

Knothole Glade

All you have to do is strike the Demon Door hard enough with your bow to enter
Treasure Guarded: Elixir of Life.

Lookout Point

(Plot Demon Door)
This Demon Door will only activate and allow you through at the end of the main game, when you have beaten Jack of Blades
Treasure Guarded: Beat the mini game to free the Prophets and win the Fire Heart so you can continue on to the Northern Wastes

Lychfield Graveyard

(Plot Demon Door)
You are required to find the 4 pieces of Nostro’s Armour that are in the area.
Treasure Guarded: Passage onwards so you can rescue your mother.

Necropolis

This Demon Door is best used last when you have looted all 12 Silver Chests as it will want any and all Silver Keys you have on you, even losing 1 Silver Key will prevent you from getting The Avenger and several different gems which are in a Silver Chest in the Lost Bay.
Treasure Guarded: The Bereaver (The best weapon in the game I think).

Rose Cottage

This door will open once you give him a Red Rose
Treasure Guarded: Full Set of Bright Will User’s Clothes.

Witchwood Stones

(Plot Demon Door)
Spelling out H I T S by striking these stones in the right order will grant you access to the archeologist, furthering the plot.
Treasure Guarded: The Archeologist (Plot), and several loot items:
Misc Items – Sapphire, Ruby, Red Meat, Chainmail Leggings, Resurrection Phial.
Howl Tattoo – Value 62, Attractiveness -51, Scariness +51, Alignment Modifier 0.
