Referenced records: faction

Cain Darkmoore, who is located in the banquet room on the 2nd floor of the warrior guildhall. He now wants two Deathfist Slashed Belts at a time. When you give him two belts, you gain faction with the warriors and paladins, and you lose it with the militia. You also get 2 - 10 gp and some decent xp. Also, when you give Cain a belt, he'll thank and ask you for help with his "bigger problem." Asking about this sends you to the paladin guild where you learn about the Corrupt Guards quest.

You say, 'Hail, Cain Darkmoore'

Cain Darkmoore says 'Hail, ______! We are the Steel Warriors of Freeport. Our training disciplines have created some of the finest warriors ever to walk upon Norrath. Perhaps the bards shall sing songs of you one day. Let your first mission be the extermination of [Clan Deathfist].'

You say, 'What is Clan Deathfist?'

Cain Darkmoore says 'The orcs of the Commonlands call themselves Clan Deathfist. They have committed many vile acts upon the residents of the Commonlands as well as persons traveling to and from Freeport. They must be destroyed. Go forth to slay them. I shall pay a bounty for every two Deathfist belts. If you are a true warrior of the bunker, perhaps you can begin with [the green and blue].'

You say, 'What is the green and blue?'

Cain Darkmoore says 'The green and blue was a test for all skilled warriors. But we have no more bunker battle blades to spare, and I can not offer you the green and the blue. We must prepare for war!!'
Cain Darkmoore says 'I must have two Deathfist belts.'

Hand in two. Note: If you hand in four belts you will only be rewarded for two of them and the other two will be lost.

Notes

Players will often buy deathfist slashed belts for 2-5pp each. Also, the good version lowers faction with Freeport Militia and raises faction with the Warrior's guild and Paladin's guild, while the evil version raises Freeport Militia faction and lowers faction with the Priest's and Paladin's guild.

If you kill orcs for the belts, instead of buying them, then the killing of orcs will raise your faction with Knights of Truth (but not Steel Warriors) more than it is hurt by turning in the belts to Captain Hazran ("evil version"). Both good and evil races can thus come into good standing with both the Militia and paladins of North Freeport.

If you are unfortunate enough to be hated by both guard factions and wish to fix that (so that you can turn in belts), killing Mojax Hikspin in West Commonlands (south side of the lake) will improve your Freeport Militia faction, but also hurt all of the important North Freeport factions (Knights of Truth, Steel Warriors, and Priests of Marr). You can fix those, however, with the right kills later.
