I've explored Rapax Castle throughly - I think - and I still have some things that I was unable to solve. They may be related - i.e., solve one problem and find several solutions.

1. If you go out the Queen's chambers door and jog to the right up a ramp there is a locked door which requires a special item. What is the item? What is in the room?

2. Near Ferro, in the main hall is a room with barred windows full of chests which, when you first see it, says that you may be able to get into it from above. I haven't been able to find a way into it.

3. On the south end of the roof opposite the prince's room there is a hall which leads to a locked door which I can't open. On the roof near it is a swing which you can activate. How do you get in that door and what does the swing do?

4. I found an Ornate Metal Rod which is not a weapon so it must do something, like open a door? What does this item do?

5. One of the items that I need for a gadget is a Demon Doll which is supposed to be in the upper Rapax Castle. Where is it? It may be behind one of the doors I can't open.

1. Not sure where you are asking about ... sounds almost like the kings quarters.

2. That is the treasuer room - you access it via the deposit slips (not very obvious, many of us have spent *years* trying to get physically into the treasure room).

3. Locked door - don't know. Swing just seems to be window dressing.

4. Ornate rod is used in the room (next door, side by side) next to where you found it, to activate a teleporter - you probably need another key for that door.

5. It is not in the game. Must have been planned, but never made it.

1. use the queens key. It's just another shortcut to the roof.

3. Queens key again, I think. Can't remember for sure.
It's her bedroom (as opposed to her playroom

Many thanks to Levram for providing the answer to #2.
Saved a lot of agro

Hail,
Arakain.

I noticed a curious little tidbit when using the deposit slips
in the King's quarters. One slip is for the assassin's cap
(I don't remember which). When you get the cap apparently your
faction rating with the King's assassins decreases. This group
does not appear on the faction list and I have never been
accosted by one of these creatures. Hmmm, the only Rapax assassin
I can think of is the one sent to the Bluff to kill Z'ant.
Perhaps if I didn't squish him before going through the Rift
I might find him sniffing at my heels.

(or the lost episodes )

I think there was more planned for the Rapax in the story, but it did not make the final cut(s). The whole King and Prince against the Queen, with her portal to Arnika and asking to create a diversion .... along with the assasin faction ...
