Irene Metrick, a Breton woman who has a house in the northwest quadrant of the Imperial City Elven Gardens District, is the master trainer in Blunt. Irene is quite a mystery, and the advanced trainers make references to some horrific acts in her past. "How many people have you killed in your lifetime, eh?" she asks. "Not as many as I, my little friend."

She sleeps from midnight to 6am in her house and will then wander around her house until 1pm. Between 1pm and 8pm she spends her time in the Market District. On Morndas, Middas and Fredas she patrols the covered area to the east; on Tirdas and Turdas she prefers the area to the northwest. From 8pm until midnight she returns to her house. She is supposed to eat between 6pm and 8pm but her wandering schedule takes precedence. On the 25th of each month between midday and 5pm, as long as Bogrum gro-Galash is still alive, she will visit The Black Horse Courier offices as part of the Unfinished Quest to do with Couriers. The exception to this schedule is during the Light the Dragonfires quest, when all residents of the Imperial City are under martial law and confined to their houses.

[edit] Notes

• If you raise Metrick's Disposition to 60 and ask about the topic Imperial City, she'll identify four other trainers including advanced Sneak trainer Othrelos and advanced Security trainer Mandil.

• She appears to be Roderic Pierrane's "other woman," unbeknown to his wife Elisa.

• NPCs seem to confuse her with Ida Vlinorman and her acrobatic abilities, as the NPCs' rumors often state that Irene "moves with such grace" or that she "jumped clear across a table once".

[edit] Blunt Master Training

The two advanced trainers who can give you the master training reference necessary to start this quest are Azzan and Christophe Marane.

Before Irene will train you, you must have killed more people than she has. In other words, you must have killed at least 50 NPCs (creatures do not count). The number of NPCs you have killed is shown on your journal's statistics page.

Notes

• Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
• Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in random order.
• If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
• On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage quest stage. Where quest is the internal name of the quest, and stage is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages. See SetStage for more information.
