Sacred Haven of Debauchery

In the first game, there simply aren't many good items, which is why his gear is so valuable there. However, in the first part, it's much harder to kill him than in the second. In the first game, I didn't kill him (although he seems to still be wandering around that location), and in the second, I also didn't kill him; instead, I summoned him to help me in a battle against an enemy. I summoned not only him but also paladins and thieves. If I were a cleric, I would have summoned clerics as well.
