“Shadows of Death” is the seventh part of “The Keeper” campaign.
The final mission brings us to the end of the thief’s path – the Keepers’ Sanctuary. The map was built some time ago, but thanks to Snobel (Sneaky Upgrade Editor Edition) I was able to make everything I planned earlier. There are some parts of the original game locations on the map, as well as a piece of the Dark Arrow map (PastHome).
I created this mission in the most difficult time in my life, with close to no free time. I am very glad to finish this work and to complete my story with the final mission. It’s a shame I was not familiar with Sneaky Upgrade Editor Edition patch. My maps could be more spacious.
1. This mission has to be played only if you installed SneakyUpgrade_Full_1.1.10.exe
The patch contains various bugfixes and game improvements such as widescreen support, and provides some GUI tweaks. It also enables the use of the FMSel fan mission loader frontend with Thief 3 and bundles the most important T3 mods. It works with the GOG and Steam versions of the game.
2. Runs from FMSel, AngelLoader, or NewGarrettLoader. Don't use GarrettLoader.

I'm glad that you liked the "Keeper" series.
Congratulations on the release. I just downloaded the whole series and will start a playthrough.
Wow! The last part of Keeper series is out!
Now I definitely need to find some time and play whole campaign again (I already forgot everything).
Do you have some plans to release all missions as one big campaign?
Дякую! Бажаю тобі сили, здоров'я і спокою в цьому Новому році!
Большое спасибо на добром слове. Соединить все миссии в одну не вижу смысла, да и могу смело сказать - это не получится. Даже с модом Сники ресурсов не хватит. Огромный объём на карте создаст трудности её корректировать.Do you have some plans to release all missions as one big campaign?

Great FM, I'm stuck unfortunately. Can't find the Deborah's Chronicles and the Book of Shadows anywhere in the Keeper's Compound, can someone give me a hint which room to look? There's so many rooms to search, I don't see a switch or anything that leads to Deborah's lair which I believe the Chronicles is located in there.
You need get into the Underground LibrariesOriginally Posted by mcmike1489
I'm already in the Forbidden Library, I was able to find the 1st book in the big library room, but now the other 2 things that are Deborah's Chronicles and the Book of Shadows is not in that room. Where do I go next since I already found the 1st book?
Wow, two FMs for Thief 3 within a month!
Congratulations on the release - I'm glad to hear you've taken advantage of the possibility for bigger maps.

read Merlin's diary carefully and go to the Citadel
thank you for your wonderful patch.Congratulations on the release - I'm glad to hear you've taken advantage of the possibility for bigger maps.He enlarged the world of T3
There are 3 floors in the Citadel, which floor should I check?
mcmike1489
First floor
I checked all the book shelves and the round table at the center of the Citadel. No switch or any book that acts like a switch to open a secret passage or vault. Where else to look?
mcmike1489, check bookshelves on the left from entrance from the "street" (where tablet "Citadel" is). It's a bit hard to notice.
Where is the Keeper Compound? I've been wandering around the town for ages and not found much apart from some map transition zones that are barred off.
It doesn't help this is the first T3 FM I've played ever, and I've forgotten what is actually platformable/frobbable in T3. I've managed to go out-of-bounds a few times.
Thank you for your help, I was able to read and find Merlin's diary to find the secret bookcase passageway. Took me awhile to figure it out, hopefully I can complete the mission now.
You can find the Keeper Compound located by a gate within Bresling Manor. (Sorry if I misspelled it) Watch out, there's a few guards inside there plus 1 outside the main gate entrance.

Just started this mission and when I try to collect the health potion in the chest in the barracks I immediately drink the health potion, it doesn't go into my inventory, is this correct? Does this happen with all health potions in this mission?
I'm also regularly getting stuck to the floor, usually after not mantling correctly or trying to hit something with my blackjack, any idea why? Easily solved by reloading but it shouldn't happen.

Thanks. That was a difficult to see switch.
I also had the "immediately use health potion" thing, but I've only found the one in the barracks so far.

I've noticed that in this mission you get healed by eating food, which IIRC is not the case with T3 missions usually, so atm I'm not too concerned about the instant swallowing of my health potion. And yes that lever was not easy to see, but if Savar has done as he has in his previous Keeper series missions there will others that area a lot, lot harder to find.

With health bottles (red), that's the way it is. But the mission also contains bottles of the Enforcers' Potion (as in Blue Rose)Just started this mission and when I try to collect the health potion in the chest in the barracks I immediately drink the health potion, it doesn't go into my inventory, is this correct? Does this happen with all health potions in this mission?
I don't quite understand what you mean. Can you send me a video?I'm also regularly getting stuck to the floor, usually after not mantling correctly or trying to hit something with my blackjack, any idea why? Easily solved by reloading but it shouldn't happen.
