Bugs

 * If the player character decides to kill Plik upon entry of the coastal grotto, the Dismemberer may appear on his corpse without completing the quest.
 * If one kills an unnamed non-player character with neutral or good Karma in one strike, and all their limbs sever and is witnessed, other non-player characters will not turn hostile towards the player character.
 * Upon activating the quest and killing Plik, the Dismemberer will appear on his body, but only if he is dismembered into giblets upon death—particularly through means of a powerful sneak attack critical with the Bloody Mess perk.
 * On rare occasions, the pieces of the body may remain suspended in the air while the body falls to the ground.
