How to unlock the Vendetta achievement in Dragon Age: Origins - Definitive Guide
- The 3 different items you steal from the shops in the market. DO NOT put them into other shop chests. If you accidentally put one in another shop chest, you can still take it out - but if you put all 3 in different chests, you can't get them back out and can't get the achievement.
- Bann Terrin's under garments. You fight him on the east side of the market. DO NOT put them on the Chantry Board, you can't get them back.
- Mages Collective Signet. (This is the one item you don't actually have to put on his body, you can give it to Sketch instead if you like - still listing it for completion purposes). First you'll need to find all the markers. To start the quest, go to the spot where the Mages Guild bag is in the main game - just west of the chantry, or on the other side of the building that has armour shop in the main game. Then there are two markers - one is just west of the bag along the buildings, and the other is near where you started the DLC - go north up the alley from the main entrance to the market. Finally, go all the way west near the gate to the city elf slums (in the main game). Go near the sparkly spot and you'll get attacked, defeat the mage and take the ring from his body.
- Jovi's body - go past the Guard Captain and down the alley and you'll have to kill the guy near the doorway. You can then take his body.
Plant all these items then go signal Marjolaine. If you did it right she will say you did a fantastic job destroying his career, and you should get the achievement.

Then place all three fenced items stolen from chests in the market place, Bann Perrin's suspect undergarments, and Jovi Merice's corpse
You will get the achievement when you return to Marjolaine.

This will be the first one that you can get. You'll need to assemble some items and plant them on the body of the Guard Captain. First, open all three chests in the market and take the stolen items.
Next, find the Mage's Collective markers. The first will be where the Mage's Collective bag is (remember from the original game?). The next marker is to the west of that spot (north is straight up on the map). The second marker is near where you started. Those will reveal the location of the cache, which is right across from the gates to the Alienage. When you get there, you'll have to fight a mage and a golem.
Next, attack the noble, Bann Perin, and then steal his underlings.
The last piece is Jovi Merce. After you kill him, take his corpse and then plant all of the items on the unconscious Guard Captain.
After planting all of that, signal Marjorlaine and talk to her. During the conversation, this will unlock if you got everything planted.

1) Stealing in the Market - steal all three treasures, do not put them at other stalls
2) Kill the Loose Tongue - loot the snitch's corpse
3) Defeat Bann Perrin's Guards - loot the bann's underwear
Once you have all five items in your inventory, you can interact with Eams and place them by his sleeping body. (If you've looted the mages' collective signet, you can leave it as well, but this is not required.) After you have planted the evidence, you should continue with the story (via the "Signal Marjolaine" marker); this trophy will pop during the cutscene with Marjolaine.
To complete the achievement, you must do one or more of the following:
1. Place Bann Perrin's suspicious underwear on Iams (quest: Deal with Bann Perrin's guards) - experience 750XP.
2. Place Jovi's body next to this poor fellow (quest: Punishment) - experience 750XP.
3. Cover Iams with stolen things (quest: Robbery of the market) - experience 750XP.
4. Put on the signet of the Magicians' Community to arouse suspicion (quest: Find the magicians' vault)
— experience 500XP.
