Civil Unrest
"Next Babylon"
Quest Giver: Internal Compulsion
Quest Length: 5,000
Quest Location: Inverxe
Quest Prerequisites: Be Victor Wolfe
Quest Description: The Crossroads is a strange, new place, but Victor Wolfe has done strange and new more than once before.

In the before time, Victor had allies. He’s going to need some new ones in this place, as well. Forge new bonds and/or secure those you may have already started. Do so in everyone’s favorite way – bloodshed. Emerge from the violence and start on your new path, Victor Wolfe.

Finished by Victor (part of https://multerra.zulenka.com/index.php?threads/crawl-0004-insanely-rich-complete.333/)

"Poor Unfortunate Souls"
Quest Giver: Victor Wolfe
Quest Length: 5k words
Quest Location: Inverexe, un-named mining village
Quest Prerequisites: Have been invited to the plot by Victor Wolfe
Quest Description: Victor in his scheming ambition has decided that he would quite like to see just where the leadership of a small mining settlement on its last legs would lead. This would take a lot of effort on his part, and leave a lot of issues to be managed by one man, thus he has invited some people that seem smarter than the average rock to help him achieve this goal, using the ideas of Sigmund's cult, to start a uniting religion.

Finished by Ahana and Sigmund (part of https://multerra.zulenka.com/index.php?threads/crawl-0004-insanely-rich-complete.333/)

"A Whole New World"
Quest Giver: Internal Compulsion
Quest Length: 5,000
Quest Location: Arcadia
Quest Prerequisites: Be Jak Mar
Quest Description: Jak Mar, someone who has already seen a bunch of goofy worlds in goofy universes, arrives in another goofy world in another goofy universe. Separated from his life partner Daxter, he finds himself a little confused about how and why he is here. What Jak quickly learns is that he has been granted yet another tabula rasa. He can’t get a hold of his allies, but he also believes that those who once hounded him are likewise absent.

Is this a new start? Make your way through the strange streets of Arcadia, Jak Mar. Steep yourself in a new beginning. Will you be a hero? Will the Dynamite Kid give more into his Dark side?

After some time, you will find Daxter, your ally. Is this the same Daxter? A new one? (you decide)

Find your partner and start your new beginning, Mr. Mar.

Completed by Jak Mar (begins here until the final post) and awarded Coin -- August 10th, 2020

"Basic Thuganomics"
Quest Giver: Shady contacts (naturally)
Quest Length: 10,000 words
Quest Location: Karim
Quest Prerequisites: Be Conrad Jamboy
Quest Description: Karim can be a cut-throat place to live, let alone thrive in any sense of the word. Established in a loosest sense of the word by virtue of recent accomplishments, Conrad must now navigate the ever-shifting landscape of the city and the planet at wide. Make contacts, establish working ties with the necessary people. Will Conrad's growing enterprises be marked with trails of blood, hard-brokered deals, greased palms, or perhaps some fun combination thereof? Good luck.

"Foraging for Danger"
Quest Giver: Ricter Casenger
Quest Length: 2,500 words
Quest Location: Kraw
Quest Prerequisites: Must not be an enemy of New Abraxas and can enter and exit with out any trouble.
Quest Description: On a poster board near the front section of town in Abraxas you may find a simple request flier pinned to it. Stating the name of the patron, even showing where to find them to discuss things in more detail, leading them to a food stand if they followed the directions. Yet, over all the flier would say the following.

“Hello! To those looking for a bit of excitement and danger with some from of reward, I have a request to give. I’ve been in constant need of ingredients seemingly located in a deep section of the jungle, yet it tends to be the den of horrendous creatures that enjoy ripping people apart. If you can bring me a bundle of White Oak flowers you will be rewarded for your kindness and heroism. They look like off white flowers that shimmer dust with seemingly wilting petals. Additionally if your lucky enough to defeat one of the monsters, you’ll likely encounter in the area, I’ll even turn its head, limbs, or what ever into a trophy for you to hang up on your wall!”

At the bottom you will read a simple summery for what is over all needed.

Goal: Find and bring back a bundle of White Oak flowers, at least ten.
Location: Boreas Cave’s, randomly dotted around the jungle and easy to find near the lightly dense sections of the planet.
Risks: Gastodon, Raptors, Giant Hornets, and many more aggressive monsters.
Rewards: Money, and for the glory seekers, a skull trophy of what ever you manage to kill and haul back. (Optional)
Repeatable: Yes

Even further at the bottom you find a small ad scribbled on saying: “If you manage to not die feel free to buy some freshly baked donuts from me as well, capable of healing even the most wary of an adventurers woes!” (Quest begins when you exit into the wilderness)

Completed by Kokonoe, in the following thread: Hunters Montra - Coin awarded (Sept 12, 2018)

"Oceans 5.5"

Quest Giver: Seedy, disreputable folks
Quest Length: 10k
Quest Location: Karim/Mesa Roja
Quest Prerequisites: Be Conrad

Quest Description: Confronted with an armed response after attempting to intimidate a merchant, Conrad must escape from pole-arm clad thugs and back into the city’s underbelly. He must regain his bearings—the merchant will most certainly have to be dealt with. As he navigates through a shady assortment of folks in dark hoods and corner alleys, Conrad discovers that his merchant friend owns a large share in an entertainment complex in the city that hosts marquee fights, gambling, and various races.

The complex also has a vault stuffed with hard cash and other valuables. Breaking the vault and making off with the contents would ruin the merchant and give Conrad more wealth than he could shake a stick at. Yet, he can’t do it alone. Even with his vast repertoire of skills and wit, he will have to recruit a handful of experts to deal with the many nuances involved in infiltrating the palace-like building, cracking the vault, and absconding with its contents.

Can he do it, gentle readers?

Completed by Conrad and other people as part of a Crawl

ATTN for Custom World Quest submissions

From the OP: "You may specify a location, but beyond that, you are spinning the roulette wheel."

I failed to catch this with Doug's request (which is one me), but yea -- if you're asking for a World Quest, it's random, and you're not supposed to be able to dictate the plot or duration. If you already have a plot in mind, you should go write that plot! World Quests are for random adventures.

Thank yinz.

Risks: Great Jagras, Raptors, ???, ???, Giant Spiders
Rewards:
Money, Monster Trophy: ??? (Monster will be revealed during the quest), Rare Gems.

Submitting for grading.

Staff Edit: Quest Completed & Coin Awarded.

We don't really grade quests as such, but you met the Quest requirements and the word count requirement, so you're good.
Though that sergeant ain't gonna be too pleased about his mech getting trashed.

This Quest is actually kinda outdated, as there's no longer a "1500-2000 word" reward bracket. As such, I've given you the Coin reward for the closest one that does actually exist, which is 2500 words: 1000 Coin.

Hidden Power

Quest Giver: Cytokine Industries Agent
Quest Length: 5,000 - 10,000 words
Quest Location: Cevanti
Quest Prerequisites: Be Ashe-0
Quest Description: New research into the historical records of Cevanti has revealed that there is an ancient stockpile of weaponized Energon hidden somewhere within the derelict ruins of the planet. An agent of Cytokine Industries approaches you with a proposition: track this invaluable stockpile down so it can be de-enriched and used as fuel for a power plant providing energy to the city of Markov.

An insurgency group is also trying to find this stockpile, though, and if they do, it could mean another wave of devastating attacks on Cevanti's people. Find the stockpile and report it to the company agent who contracted you, all without being followed or giving the information to the wrong people… if you can do that, you’ll be compensated handsomely: probably with some neat tech or simply precious coin.

“Waterboy”
Quest Giver: Owen & Beru Lars
Quest Length: 10,000+ words
Quest Location: Mesa Roja
Quest Prerequisites: Be Gilgamesh
Quest Description:

Being King isn't easy.

Construction has barely begun on your new city of Uruk when locals start picking at your heels with problems. In particular, a couple of experienced moisture farmers who claim to have been harvesting precious aqua vitae from some tributaries near Uruk (usually transporting it to the noble houses of Karim, down the river) have a problem that demands the King's attention. They've arrived at your "palace" (or whatever you're calling it these days) with a small army of their disgruntled fellows claiming the Syntech operations have dried up the waterways that form their livelihood.

It's your job to quell these mongrels' peasants' fears about what they're calling King Gilgamesh's tyrannical rule, sucking the region literally dry of its resources... and perhaps get to the bottom of where these resources actually went. Rumor has it that there's been bands of War Boys spotted cruising the deserts, hoarding the water to sell on the black market...

Repeatable? N

“Zero Tolerance”
Quest Giver: Reez Kardrivhen
Quest Length: 10,000+ words
Quest Location: Erde Nona
Quest Prerequisites: Be @Jak Mar
Quest Description:

In one of the districts of Arcadia floating above the rest of the city, an annual F-Zero tourney is held. This is mostly to entertain the locals, a collection of snobbish rich people who like to pretend they're down and dirty enough to know things about cars.

Reez Kardrivhen has always dreamed of being the pit crew leader for a successful F-Zero team. Living in one of the slummier districts of Erde Nona's surface, she's never really had the capability to get up to the Upper Racing District to achieve her dreams, until one day she finds you, Jak Mar, an actual celebrity now thanks to your photo finish in Dante's Abyss, down in her district for some reason. You're just badass enough (and rich enough) to get the car she's built to the Racing District and drive it, and help her, just maybe, win the prize money.

But can you win the race before the mafioso debt collectors Reez owes come to collect and finish her off for good?

Repeatable? N
