True, you don't necessarily need a strong char to kill an ascended sleeper. But you typically won't meet and defeat them very early. Of course, it is possible nonetheless.
If you follow the main quest without doing much other stuff, you can meet them pretty early. It depends on how you play, as usually in Morrowind. If you follow a "typical" way through the game though, you will spend some time before trapping one. If you don't use "cheap tricks", I think playing more or less straight through the main quest (i.e. without gaining alot of skills+loot elsewhere) will be relatively tough, although probably not impossible. Hmmmm, maybe I should try it next time :)
Drasca: I said there are 1-2 ways to get the Codebook without angering the Thieves quest. That you can skip the quest altogether is of course another matter... in that case you don't get the codebook ;)
The 2 ways I know:
Succesful Pickpocketing.
Persuasion (not 100% sure wether this is possible, but I think it is).
I did not try hand to hand combat yet. Does it really not anger the Thieves Guild if they see how you steal the book from the unconscious Scottilde ? Or does it only not anger them if you do it while succesfully sneaking ?
