damn that guy is unkillable, to my shock

Not a wannabe, he is indeed a keeper.

Yeah, took me a few moments to realize that, and to realize that he didn't just run off because he heard or saw me.

The original version worked for me while I had to rename my MODS folder, this one works with "CarryBody", "T2FMDML" and "Thief2 Fixed" in the MODS folder.
Thanks for the update and great FM!

Finished this deceptive FM.
All objectives completed, one bonus objective completed, possible second bonus objective found, all pockets picked, but I only have 5747 out of 9091 loot, or ~63% of the total amount.
Off-beat things I've found:
The contents of the apothecary's safe, including a mysterious potion. Anyone know what it does?
The hammer from the display case in the Hammerite church.
The contents of the police safe.
The hidden pouch in the vent.
The coin in the flower box.
Two Mysterious Medallions, gained from locations up high. I figure this is an Easter Egg hunt and ties into a bonus objective, but I don't know how many medallions there are in total.
I have not fully explored Theobald's manor, due to the over-saturated security detail.
I am at a loss where to look for one third of the game's loot. There has to be a section of the FM that I'm missing, a big section. Any hints?

It sounds like you've been to every section, it's just that there are several rooms with well-hidden "safe" compartments and many loots are hidden in unconventional ways.
As for medallions, there are three in total but it doesn't open up more of the map or anything. Just a little tie-back to the Keeper Order since the character you're playing is not Garrett and has no idea who the Keepers are.

Where do I find the key to the apothecary's safe? I just need a little hint there, not the exact location.
Also, how do I get into that tower beside the Hamerite church? the one with the bell. I hear a few Hammerites in that tower, but don't find any way into it.

1) Above that area.
2) From below

I just finished the mission. Nice one, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Pretty classic mission in regard of the objectives, although the story isn't "run-of-the-mill". I liked the level design and texturing. It's surely not the typical "Thief look", everything looks a bit more clean and posh, and not as dark some classic Thief maps, but, I like it.
The difficulty was very good in my opinion. I'm not a fan of super hardcore difficulty, and, this mission doesn't have that. Ghosting the mansion was a bit of a challenge, and, I'm usually not a fan of forced ghosting, but, in this mission, considering the objective, it made perfect sense, and, that's the important thing for me.
I found a few secrets, but, by far not everything, and, also ended up 2600 gold short, which is a lot. Some stuff seemed pretty hidden.
Slight criticism: A bit more storytelling by readables would have been nice. While I don't think there have to hundreds of readables, a couple more of them would have been nice, and, they could have also been a bit longer (while, again, they don't have to be all 4 or 5 or 6 pages long, like in some other FMs... less is more). E.g., it would have been interesting to know a bit more about the thieves guild, their hierarchy, maybe suspicions by the guild leader that he suspected Yilgun to take his role etc.
So, yeah, all in all great mission (I really enjoyed your other missions as well, especially Towers of Twilight), so, hope for more good stuff in the future. :)
