==Bring out your Virgins==
Objectives:
* Trap the Souls of 7 Virgins for Averna
* Bring the Virgin Soul Gems to Averna
Log Entry:
 I must trap the souls of 7 virgins. Averna has given me a spell to detect them. I can also bring her along and she will point them out.

Averna Gives you 7 Black Soul Gems, and the spell 'Detect Virgins'. It is up to you to find virgins scattered across skyrim, [http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Soul_Trap_%28effect%29 trap their souls], and return the Virgin Soul Gems to Averna. If you have the killable children mod, this quest is significantly easier, although worryingly not all  children are virgins. Fortunately, there are other virgins in the world that you can kill. Here is a list of places where you can definitely find some:
# Riften - usually three of them outside, and the orphanage has one you can kill, the docks outside Riften features an Argonian Virgin
# Dragon Bridge - Some farm kid living with his dad
# Markarth - Around 8PM the Silver-Blood Inn has 3 Virgins
# Falkreath - usually has two in its pub

'''In order to capture a virgin's soul you MUST:'''
# have empty black soul gems in your inventory
# cast [http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Soul_Trap_%28spell%29#Soul_Trap soul trap] on virgin (or use [http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Soul_Trap_%28effect%29 soul trap weapon])
# kill virgin before soul trap spell wears off
 
Its best to take Averna with you on this quest, since it can be annoying having to constantly cast Detect Virgins. Averna will immediately point out when there is a Virgin within 50 feet of the player, so you only have to use the spell after Averna mentions there is one nearby.

===Bugs===
====Getting Virgin Soul Gems without using soul trap====
There is an unfixiable cheat/hack that has confused a few players. For instance, if you already have a filled black soul gem in your inventory and kill a virgin WITHOUT using soul trap, you will still get a virgin soul gem. This is because the quest doesn't know if you cast soul trap after a virgin has already died. So after you kill a virgin, the quest checks to see if you got a filled black soul gem (ideally, from trapping the virgins soul) and if you do, it will swap that out for a virgin soul gem.

====Too many virgins in a room or slow computer====
The Mod does a really good job of tracking the player, checking if there are any virgins nearby, and handing out Virgin Soul Gems when they are soul trapped. For performance reasons the quest cannot check every second, so its possible it can get behind and sometimes you will kill a virgin without getting credit for it. For one the Mod can only keep track of four Virgins at a time, and it picks the 4 Virgins closest to you. If you somehow manage to walk into a room with 5 virgins and kill them all, you will only get credit for 4. A good thing to know is that the quest 're-registers' nearby virgins every time you change location, or wait for an hour. So save before each Virgin kill, and if the game doesn't register it re-load and then wait for an hour before killing the Virgin again.

NOTE: On some computers, it can take a long time for the game to 'register' nearby virgins after changing location/waiting an hour, depending on your hardware, and number of mods installed. If you are having trouble getting the game to recognize the virgins you've killed, bring Averna with you. When averna points to a virgin and says 'there's one right over there' it's confirmation that the quest has recognized nearby virgins, and you will get credit for soul-trapping them.

====Azura's Black Star====
If you kill a virgin and it's soul goes to the [http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:The_Black_Star_%28item%29 Azura's Black Star], you will not get a virgin soul gem.
