Bohemia is huge, and finding a single person is akin to a needle in a haystack; here is how to start the Brushes with Death DLC in KCD2.

How do you start the KCD2 Brushes with Death DLC? Henry travels far and wide in his adventures, and sometimes it can be difficult to keep a mental note of where everyone is and what you're supposed to be doing. This is doubly so when a new quest is dropped in your lap, as it has been with the Brushes of Death DLC.

Keep an eye on the KCD2 map for this, as you're going to need to backtrack a little if you're already far through the KCD2 quest list. The Brushes with Death DLC is a winding, mysterious story quest that sees you team up with a rather enigmatic painter. Your friendship begins on a rather strange note, as you discover him tied to a tree… having a conversation with a skull? Here's how to start the Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Brushes with Death DLC so you can get stuck in.

How to start the Brushes with Death DLC

To begin the Brushes with Death quest, you'll need to have completed the For Whom the Bell Tolls quest and have access to Trosky Castle. If you attempt to find the Brushes with Death quest location before this, you will be met with nothing.

There will be a purple map marker to the southeast of Trosky Castle if you're able to access the Brushes with Death DLC. As you approach the map marker, a cutscene will play, thus beginning the DLC quest. After a brief introduction and a fight with some wolves, you're on your way.

To help with the Brushes with Death KCD2 DLC, we suggest loading up on the best KCD2 armor and the best KCD2 weapons; both will help you survive whatever comes your way. If you're stuck or just want to shake things up, we also have a KCD2 console commands guide, so you can bend the world to your will.
