QUEST GUIDELINES & REQUESTS



QUESTING
Does your character need something they don't have in the game? An article of clothing, new shoes, a necklace, a sword, a plant, a toy, a book, a video game, a pet, a new limb if they canonically lost theirs, a heal from a disease they regain as a skill that's slowly draining their life, a new magical ability they don't normally possess? You get the idea. All of these things can feasibly be quested for in the game itself, and the Echo and Cats will be the characters you'll want to see for any of these!

To our Echo and Cat players, please track this post so you can be alerted to any new requests when they go up!

Please keep in mind that in terms of extremely huge quests, such as disease or affliction healing gained from a skill shard, or ones that completely transform or change your character in some way, to please contact the mods at kyriakosmods@gmail.com to get permission first! Likewise if there are any quests you're not sure about going ahead with.


ECHO QUESTS
Echoes can offer quests for a variety of goods and services, big and small, whether a character needs clothes, food, toys, weapons, or less mundane things such as healing or magical augmentation. Which Echo a character should turn to depends on various factors, such as how one Echo may offer a better deal than another. Healing quests must always come from your team's patron Echo or, if the injury was due to a game, from the Echo who ran it.

For both team and Echo players, please keep the following in mind:

The larger, more complex, or more powerful an item, the bigger the quest needs to be. A sword will always cost more than a pair of socks, and a fully functioning computer system will always cost more than a suitcase full of clothes. Animals such as Pokemon can be quested for, but they will always start out as an egg. And for large quests, we'd like them to not be handwaved!

For things like learning a new magical ability, bear in mind that if your character wants magic that isn't native to them, they're going to have to figure out how to use it through trial and error. And that said magic would start at a low level, needing multiple uses and training to grow stronger (example: 5 casts to get to level 2, 10 to level 3, and so on), not different from an RPG!

Quests can be almost anything, and they can be tailored to suit the character undertaking it. For example, an Echo could give a liar a quest to be honest or a secretive homebody a quest that involved going around to all of the different teams and sharing memories.

If your team is, for whatever reason, without a patron to provide them food and supplies, an Echo can offer quests for these things. These quests will usually be large and ongoing, depending on how long it takes for a team to take on a new patron.


CAT QUESTS
Offering characters quests is something that the Cats can do to win back a single memory shard for themselves, so odds are Cats will always be open to being approached with a request. Please keep in mind that Cats are limited to offering quests for small items only.

What counts as small? More mundane things, and only items that do not possess any magical ability. In terms of weapons, a small dagger would be fine whereas a larger sword would need an Echo quest. In terms of pets, a small kitten could be quested for, but not a Pokemon.

Cats can also get a character items from their home.

(a) LOTS OF CAKES. Colourful, tasty cakes!

Item(s) requested: digital camera, 2 dresses (wow don't ask), & one or two cases of cola
Type of quest preferred: Any type of social quests are fine! The soda one can be handwaved since it's on a smaller scale? Or not, I don't mind either way.

OFFERING

[personal profile] healthunits 2015-09-14 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
What they specialize in giving: Units here specializes in providing items that are technologically or medically inclined. Things like pain-killers, first-aid kits, prostheses, computers, and anything up to advanced robotics are their jam. They also are good for children's items / toys and anything that characters need to stay healthy (so food is also good). Pets (including Pokemon) for emotional supports needs are also good.

What they won't/can't give: Magical abilities. Weapons. Recreational drugs (including alcohol and cigarettes). Because of their background, their programming prohibits them from enabling wisps from engaging in self-destructive behavior or behavior that will otherwise harm themselves or others.

What their quests usually involve: Units is an inquisitive echo constantly in search of more data; thematically, they're often going to ask for characters to find, give, or share information, either with them or with others.

The following are some generic quest ideas that I've brain-stormed, if you're interested in them or something like them, or are interested in something else you think Units would be suitable for, feel free to respond so we can tailor something!

  • Survey fellow wisps about their home worlds and technology ( 3-15 people)
  • Become an emotional support animal for another fellow wisp (1-3 days)
  • Transmit sensory data (vision, hearing, or smell) (1-3 days)
  • Share memories using their 3D goggles / headphones and wristband (2-7 people)
  • Teach a class for a useful skill (2-5 people)
  • Build a simple robot with a friend (or a complex one with a group)
  • Do computer repair work

Character name: Lucciola
Item(s) requested: The bird Dio had to take care of for Kanra!
Type of quest preferred: ANYTHING REALLY. I'd love something social and/or cute for him to do, and semi!handwaveable, so it won't take ages to thread out. He's taken care of a ton of animals for Swan Maiden before so that's a thing in example.

Ideally, I suppose it'd be best to get the quest from Kanra herself too, if possible?

Item(s) requested:

Type of quest preferred: I want to take a de-age quest for at least some of the living items, but I would also like to put that off until after the AU game (unless AU-ing into a non-deaged form doesn't break the quest).

That'd be too much for him).
