How to unlock the Death of a Penguin achievement in DeathSpank: Thongs Of Virtue - Definitive Guide

Go into the temple of altars and place all the books onto the pedestals than hit the switch. Now move onto the center of the star and head down into the catacombs.

Down here the monks will welcome you since you are wearing your monk robes. None of the catacomb inhabitants will harm you, in fact, so keep it that way for now. You can also find gun parts scattered about. Head downwards and here you'll come to the first real puzzle of the game.

Hit the switches in this order to pass:

1. Brown
2. Orange
3. Red
4. Brown
5. Red
6. Blue
7. Yellow
8. Green
9. Yellow

Now you can move onward to the store room, which holds plenty of barrels and a TON of gun parts. You should be able to finish the gun part quest by visiting here.

Now go through the dungeon and you'll eventually see the Nun surronded by five different barriers. Go down each of the colored paths and talk to the silent monk brute's, each of who will give you an item. Use that item on the device nearby to take down the barrier.

You can now talk to the Nun, who will tell you that she controls the powers of the five gods that you learned about from the tourist-monks. She'll than turn into each of the gods, or rather make the statues come to life.

Now we have a choice, we can either fight the statues or talk our way out of it. Talking our way out not only saves us a fight, but it makes the Nun weaker in the end.

The first statue, Beatrice, will knock all your weapons out of your hands. I recommend using the fire axe 2 to continually hit her, and when it happens just run up and pick up the fire axe to continue hurting her. After she's dead you will have all your weapons again.

To talk your way out of it, just answer: "Nine years of work couldn't capture it's perfection."

The next statue, Lucy, will hit you taking away money. Smack her through your wallet pains as fast as you can. To talk your way out of it, just answer: "I give all that I have to the downtrodden."

The next statue, Susan, will slow you down and poison you. She's not too bad, honestly, just block when you need to, use your justice, and smash her to bits. To talk your way out of it, just answer: "That which makes flowers bloom and birds sing."


Albert, the next statue, will make you run away from it... and sometimes will shrink you. He is also resistant to fire and has a very weak projectile attack, so use your ranged weapons. To talk your way out of it, just answer: "The last thing you ever lifted."

The last statue, Walter, will randomly make all your items move to different slots, but he hits like a girl and your items will go back to their original slots after a little while, making Walter no challenge at all. Plus, I mean, you can SEE where your items are so just look and hit whatever button your weapons pop up on. To talk your way out of it, just answer: "I'm confused."

After going through all the gods, the Nun will start to fight, using her ruler as a weapon. Hit her with your best weapons. She's not hard at all since you talked your way through the gods, maybe requiring one potion throughout the fight, and afterwards you'll recover the thong of compassion and be treated to a cutscene. You'll also get the gate key to the west. Nice.

Notice, the Nun will be harder depending on how many gods you fought instead of talked to, as she will inherit their special attacks, so best to talk your way through.

Am I the only one that the answers aren't showing up as everyone says? Did I do something wrong?

The first one's answers are:
"It's alright I suppose.
Perfect as the rising sun.
I thought it was an udder.
Its olfactory capabilities are beyond compare."

If all of the answers aren't showing up, it's because you didn't talk to the Tourism Monk about that specific god, I believe.

You're solution really should include that you first of all have to talk to all Tourism Monks. If you don't do this you can't pick the right answers later on...

This solution is cut and pasted from a walkthrough on GameFaqs by Bkstunt and Thnikaman. Proper credit to them should have been given. Earlier in the walkthrough it is mentioned that you should listen to all the tourist monks' stories. (search for "tourist monks") Not only did the OP of this solution not give credit, but he failed to include this vital info.

While the Nun fight is a little tougher without answering the questions right, I still beat her with little difficulty.

This can get complicated. First go to the sanctuary and go in the top building.(at any point before you go into the catacombs try to talk to all the tourist monks and learn about the gods/goddesses and if you talk to the monks the nun yelled at, convince them to go skinny dipping you can go down to the dark forest lake and take there monk clothes, the monks in the catacombs wont attack you)There will be a book on the ground use it with a pedestal and leave.

Then go all the way west in the dark forest until you reach a tall fat leprechaun kill him and then you get another book. Then you have to go to the Beaux Kuckelle library and get a library card. Check out 3 red books. (make sure they are red)

Go back to the sanctuary and put all the books on the pedestals and pull the lever. Then step on the part of stone that popped up. You will go down to the catacombs and get to where the nun is using the statues go to each little pathway to deactivate the statues by killing the Monks by the statues object or if you're dressed like a monk just talk to him and the use the item he gave you with the God/goddesses object.

When they are all done go talk to the nun and if talked to the tourist monks and learned about the gods/goddesses then if you answer there questions you wont have to fight them and when ALL of that's done you'll get the achievement.

This is technically a good solution and helped me gain this achievement, but this is very poorly written. Can you edit to break it into paragraphs?

Story Related. The Evil Nun can be found at the Sanctuary.

Walkthrough

To enter, you must first be in critical condition (low health) before the monk will allow you access. Approach the monk at the top who will open the door to the Temple for you. Upon entering the Temple, you will see a Red Book lying on the floor and 5 pedestals arranged in a symbol. The objective is to get 5 Red Books onto those pedestals, the location of the remaining books are:

1. 3 of them can be found at the Library at Le Beaux Kuckelle
2. The last one is held by a Mini-Boss Mr.Tanglefangle, located down to the road leading west of the Sanctuary

Place all 5 Red Books on the Pedestal and stand in the middle to go down to the Catacombs. Move along until you come to a junction, the lower path takes you to Storage where you can find Gun Parts (for another Story Quest). Once you’ve done that, go back and take the upper path. You’ll see a series of altars and coloured streams of light. Beside each altar is a path that has a switch to turn of that stream of light. Go through each path flicking off the switch and defeating the enemies to gain access to the Evil Nun.

When you are done and go up to her, the Boss Battle ensues. First, the statue from each Altar will move and talk to you, asking a series of questions. Get the answer correct and you don’t need to fight them, but it doesn’t matter as they are pushovers and give you decent XP. Defeating all of them will bring out the Boss, kill her for the trophy.
