THE COLLECTOR QUEST: A COMPLETE GUIDE
It is surprising how many people have never heard of the collector quest, though it is one of the oldest, and certainly the most profitable NPC quests in the game. Unlike it's counterparts, the reward for completing the collector quest is a semi rare obsidian Statue (Bust) which can only be obtained by completing the quest ten times. Although time consuming, with the help of this guide, you can complete the quest fairly quickly and painlessly.
PART 1: THE FIRST TIME
You activate the collector quest by talking to the NPC collector that sits outside New Haven inn. It is a good idea to mark a rune somewhere close to him, as you will be needing to visit him on many occasions during the quest.
After you talk to him, the collector will asign you numerous tasks, which will require you to travel around the facets in order to complete. It is a good idea to try to mark runes to every location you will need to visit, to cut down travel time, as you will need to complete the quest ten times in order to collect the true reward.
TASK 1: FISHING FOR RAINBOW PEARLS:
The first task the collector will ask of you, is to collect 6 rainbow pearls from the lake in Haven. To do so you will need a fishing pole, which can be bought from any Yellow Fisherman NPC. Don't worry, you don't need any fishing skill to complete this task.
After casting the fishing pole into the lake, you will shortly be given a status message telling you if you found a rainbow pearl or not. If you don't find one right away, don't worry, you will eventually find all six, even if you cast in the same spot.
After finding all six the quest gump will pop up in the corner of your screen. Return to the collector, who will give you your next task.
TASK 2: THE PAINTING
Next the collector will ask you to go to vesper and get your portrate painted at the colored canvas. It is important that you mark a rune once you arrive, because vesper is a long hike from the nearest moongate.
After talking to the painter, she will agree to paint your portrate, and ask you to take a seat on the stool. Once you sit down, don't move, or else the time you have to wait for her to finish painting will reset. Just sit their patiently, until she is finished. When she is done, your quest gump will pop up again. Recall back to the collector, and get your next task.
TASK 3: THE AUTOGRAPH
The next task will be to get an autographed page of sheet music from the musician Gabriel. He can be found in the building north of the theater in Britian. Once you talk to Gabriel, he will tell you he doesn't have any sheet music, but you may be able to find some at the location of one of his last performances. Britian theater, Jehl Theater, and Nejel theater.
Talk to the impersarios at each location, and eventually one of them will sell you some sheet music for 10 gold.
Return to Garbiel, and he will sign the sheet. After he does so, return to the collector, who will give you your final task.
TASK 4: FIGURINES
The collector will ask you to visit the toy maker in trinsic to collect a set of figurines. The toymaker can be found north of the Trinsic stables, in the Tinkers guild. Again, it is easier to mark a rune here then to run from the moongate.
The toymaker will give you a set of enchancted paints, and ask that you locate 5 creatures and paint their picture, so that he can model the figurines after your paintings. The creatures he chooses are random from a small list of beasts, most that can be found in Tramel. The following is a partial list of the creatures he may ask you to paint, and where to find them.
Juka Warrior: Wrong dungon Tram
Juka Mage: Wrong dungon Tram
Litch: Covetous level 3
Mummy: Covetous level 3
Swamp Dragon: South of Humility shrine Ilsh

*Note: Most of these creatures do spawn in tram, which is easier then running through ilsh, if you mark a recall rune to their locations. Check the uostratics homepage for exact spawn locations
After you collect all of the required paintings, return to the toymaker who will give you the figurines.
Return to the collector, and receive you reward: A small amount of gold, and a piece of obsidian.

a squeamish assassin
a stoic swordsman
a studious scribe
a thought provoking writer
a treacherous scoundrel
a troubled poet
an unflappable wizard
a valiant warrior
a wayward fool
There is also a small chance (1 in 80) that you will receive a bust with your characters name on it, which makes it a truely unique item!
I have yet to see a complete set of status, as the quest is rather time consuming. However, it's enjoyable seeing which statue you are rewarded, and can sometimes be a needed break from the normal hack and slash of everyday game play.
I hope you enjoyed this guide. Please feel free to post any information I have neglected, and I will edit it accordingly
