    Title: Sneak Scene - Sentry Violet does not move
    Reproduction Rate: 50% (at least 3 out of 6)
    Blocker? Yes, when it happens
    Details: I am not sure if this is an issue or a mechanic that I have not yet figured out. Sentry Violet often appears to make a chest impossible to obtain. Often I find that he is stationary in the sixth room - the one with the chest up the steps. He's standing very near the chest, facing it.

    His light circle covers the area around the chest and the most of the platform at the top of the stairs. There is no way to go around him. The crates or an invisible wall make it impossible to jump around the crates and land to his right on the platform.

    I also found that I can get VERY close to him from behind when he does this. I'm in his light circle but he does not catch me.

    Unfortunately, I accidentally double clicked him to start a conversation which got me caught - which is lame - LOL! So I do not know if I could have walked in front of him.

    I have seen other sentries in previous rooms that normally patrol but are sometimes stationary. Most of those have two ways in so you can get around them. But this one blocks progress in the scene.

    Here he is, not moving... See the /loc in the corner.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1) Obtain a Sneak Scene key from an innkeeper.
    2) Enter the Sneak Scene.
    3) Use you key to enter the sneaking area.
    4) Advance to the sixth room. The one with the stairs.
    5) About 540% of the time, find Sentry Violet camping the chest at the top of the stairs. :p
