Quest Board
Quests & Reputation
You and your fellow players can do quests out in the surrounding area to help build the reputation of your town. Outsiders are not easily trusted, especially ones with strange powers. That said, the more good deeds you and your fellows perform then the more comfortable the world will be with you at large. You can also earn some gold that can be traded with merchants across the land, find or receive interesting/unusual magical items, or even earn some bonds to exchange with Charlie!
As your reputation rises as a group, you deepen your bond with the land and new areas will become accessible to you as well as more amenable to hosting the people from your town.
Quests will be ranked by stars, up to five! One being easy and five being the hardest available at that moment. The harder the quest, the greater the reward and reputation will become. But be careful, you can also lose reputation if some of you fail at your tasks or run amok!

Quest Submissions
Quests or missions can either be threaded out and submitted when complete or you can do a write up on what happened and how it went!
Just comment here under the appropriate header with either of the forms above to submit your quest interest or results.
Open Quests
- ⁂ For open quests, there is no limit to how many times people can take these on. They are the equivalent of your 'repeatable' quests in RPG settings.
⁂ The only restriction is that we ask people wait seven (7) days after submitting for and receiving the rewards from one quest before submitting for another. This is because we want everyone to have a chance to look at and engage with the quest board as well as pace the growth of reputation and expansion into the setting in an organic-seeming way!
However: This is only for officially submitting for a quest on the page. If you want to start a log or thread before you're allowed to submit for an open quest, that's totally fine! The point of them is mostly to be an extra way for players to engage in the setting if an event isn't to their fancy, they want to focus on reputation, etc. Once you're allowed to, you can submit for the quest and link the started thread with your rolls to receive rewards. (Added 10/31/2024)Quest Submission Form (Open)
Exclusive Quests
- ⁂ For exclusive quests, anyone can make a submission to take them on but if multiple players wish to take the same one, OOCly the moderators will RNG who receives it and - after the first round - give preference going forward to those who have not received an exclusive quest yet.
⁂ ICly, since exclusive quests are more difficult and, well, exclusive- A quest master will interview the applicants and decide who seems best for the job. They, too, will give preference to new adventurers rather than veterans in order to better establish offworlders reputation as a whole in Town and beyond.
⁂ This will be decided once a week on Sundays to allow time for people to put in their interest. Those who do not get selected will have their comments screened and may try again the following week!

Quest Suggestions
If you have your own idea for a quest or mission, let us know here! We'd love to see what players would like to do in the setting with their characters and be involved in worldbuilding themselves.
We'll let you know if it's approved and any changes we may have made before adding it to the sheet!

Gossiping Grannies (Young Sephiroth, Gaia, Ignis, Prompto)
Party Members: Ignis, Gaia, and Sephiroth (the mini one)
Dice Roll: (We weren't sure if we should each roll or not but just in case!)
Prompto: 20 (Obligatory Tom Cardy link.
Ignis: 14
Sephiroth: 11
Gaia: 6
Summary or Thread: So Prompto, Ignis, Gaia, and Sephiroth team up to escort grannies! How hard could it be?! Ignis will probably be workin' the grannies over for gossip (METAPHORICALLY SPEAKING). Gaia and Sephiroth aren't great at the social skills or intel collecting but Ignis rocks at that. Prompto will be keeping an eye on the surroundings and maybe EVERYONE will be wondering how he got to be the technical adult in this group.
But there could be some solid performance on the bandit issue. Sephiroth is a highly trained and competent fighter and SOLDIER. Gaia is from a world where she might have lived as a rich girl but still needed to defend herself. She can conjure up a hammer. Ignis is a practiced strategist and support skill afficionado with excellent combat abilities of his own. These will be some of the WORLDS MOST PROTECTED GRANNIES no matter what the three out of towners look like. Prompto is probably leavin the diplomacy to Ignis. But maybe not! Maybe he's also makin' friends with the grannies!
The question is what might happen depending on what TYPE of bandits show up.
ORPHANED KIDS: This group of multiracial bandits could be just a bunch of juvenile delinquents looking to score some snacks/food for orphaned kids. Yeah we know Charlie's doing his best and people are trying to rebuild but sometimes things slip through the cracks. SO maybe this is a group that was are having to do what it takes to fill their mouths.
While the tactics probably wouldn't normally work on such a skilled and canny group, trouble will come when the frontrunners of the 'kids' (probably the bigger, older ones) try to attack. Sephiroth, trained to be lethal regardless of the target would probably react that way, shocking grannies the party alike. Gaia will probably try to prevent Sephiroth from landing a lethal blow in a 'what are you doing they're kids! just scare them!' and maybe even succeed because she can teleport in to block one strike as a 'surprise' (won't work a second time but hopefully once will be enough). Ignis may not be superhuman fast, but he'd still move in to help reprimand Sephiroth for being like that against children, and would properly scold all of them before figuring out ways to make them into Productive Members Of Society. Child guards for the grannies lets go?! Prompto, having absolutely nailed a baller 20 in perception, will also move to react and try to prevent any lethal reaction IF the children actively attack Sephiroth.
Sephiroth will NOT go lethal mode if the kids do not attack him.
Some of the pilfer group of kids might actually get away with product and maybe they won't be as successful. Some of the kids may be injured a bit or captured. It will be a bittersweet thing. AT LEAST 90% unsweetened cacao.
ACTUAL BANDITS: For one reason or another these are actual, adult bandits. Maybe the don't care who their target it. Maybe it's the outsiders who were the real targets (thinking they could be sold off). Maybe the grannies are a secret group moving actual gold from place to place and the bake sale is a cover. Whatever the reason there will be less merciful leanings; at least from Gaia and Sephiroth. Both are from worlds and circumstances where if you turn to this sort of stuff you get what's coming to you and if that's death? /shrugemoji. Ignis will be more inclined to capture bandits alive for intel purposes. Prompto will take potshots at the baddies, having the advantage of range and massive forewarning. This may or may not be tempered by Ignis' efforts to take prisoners as they do know how to work together. Things like cover fire and so forth instead of outright direct hits.

Goblin Dinner
Party Members: Angeal Hewley-Rhapsodos, Genesis Hewley-Rhapsodos, and Sephiroth [full sized]
Dice Roll:
Angeal - 19
Genesis - 12
Sephiroth - 4
Summary: Utilizing their military experience and freakish unison teamwork that comes from totally normal circumstances and definitely not their lowkey connection via alien hivemind virus, the gang plans on definitively wiping out the goblin problem. Sephiroth might have a bit of an issue, occupied by a younger version of himself as his thoughts are, but that's why his teammates are here to help out. While Sephiroth and Genesis are coming in equipped with swords, Angeal is just going to rely on his hand-to-hand expertise to put goblins down. And apparently do pretty good if that 19 has anything to say on it.

Gossipping Grandmas
Party Members: Bucky/Asset, Avan, Nephenee
Dice Roll: 12
Summary or Thread: Avan will probably chatter amiably with the ladies and be useless if there's trouble, while Bucky is on high alert the whole time and jump very twitchily when a nice old woman tries to pat his arm. Neph is likely to be somewhere in between. Working on getting the actual thread up right now...

Gossiping Grandmas
Party Members: Ignis Scientia, Ravus Fleuret, and Ardyn Izunia
Dice Roll:
Ignis - 18
Ravus - 14
Ardyn - 11.
Summary or Thread: Log for both threads, but the gang plans to keep things pretty straightforward! They'll all provide somewhat charming company - Ignis because he knows the ladies from a prior run of the quest, Ravus because he's a polite knightly nerd, and Ardyn because he's doing his best to put up a good innocent act to the locals. They'll continue on as normal.
That is, until Ignis recognizes some signs of bandits being about (familiar as he now is with them), and organizes the group accordingly. Ravus is sent off to finish escorting the grandmas. In the meanwhile, Ignis and Ardyn will take care of the bandits.
....Whereupon Ignis takes advantage of the moment to grab one of the bandit weapons, and kill Ardyn in the whole mess.
His
lieexcuse is that Ardyn got overconfident and fell in the heat of battle, whereupon Ignis spared him his suffering since he clearly wouldn't make it in a journey back to town. Truly tragic, but a good lesson in never underestimating a foe. Very tragic. Don't worry, Ignis buried him already.SUCCESSFUL MURDER!!

Upon speaking to Charlie about Ardyn's untimely demise, you will find the fledgling god extremely distraught. Charlie blames himself and quite vocally berates himself for not having been more careful.
He then casts WISH to revive Ardyn who will wake up the next morning in the small medical room in Charlie's office. The act seems to visibly take a toll on him, and he asserts that he has now been set back greatly with the energy it took for the revival.

Party Members: Prompto
Dice Roll:
Prompto: 14
Noctis: 4
Summary or Thread: Upon learning folks need help wrangling chickens, Prompto cajoles his boyfriend Noctis into joining him in lending a hand. While Prompto is a bit of a natural with critters, the chickens seem...Rather unhappy and uncomfortable with Noctis. Perhaps it is because he hasn't met any chocobos back home at his canon point, or perhaps it is because he is starting to smell like something that reads as dangerous to the birds. Whatever the reason, he is having a bad time. Should they run into the Larger Than Average Rooster (That is Very Mean), it will most definitely spur Noctis multiple times whilst Prompto tries to help him run awaaaaay!

Party Members: Angeal Hewley, Cloud Strife, and Sephiroth (travel size vers)
Dice Roll: .
Angeal - 17
Cloud - 9
Miniroth - 6
Summary or Thread: So three idiots walk into the forest to kill goblins-
That is to say, Angeal is realizing that these two losers need a little more structure in their lives, and so he's decided to take them out on a kind of clean up duty they might be most familiar with. He also thinks it would be funny to make Cloud deal with more Sephiroth in some capacity. It's good for him, he promises.
However, Cloud is so busy trying to look good in front of both these First Classes that he's going to eat shit a little bit, while Angeal covers up for the lapses. Kind of like the last time he had to deal with killing goblins, actually...
This becomes a problem, however, when Sephiroth enters the picture. With him refusing to do teamwork things, and Cloud Strife having his own issues with him, it becomes a bit of a mess.
If Angeal starts to realize that they won't be able to clear out the goblins this go-around, he may well cut his losses and just grab one goblin to do an improv lesson on teamwork with this pair of jackasses.
SUCCESS!!
no subject
Party Members: Ardyn (
Dice Roll: 15, 17, and 20 respectively.
Summary or Thread: Thread here! Mind the CWs because the boys got a little carried away.
Also, a small thing to note: Ardyn did take a bandit to torture for information. He let him live, don't worry, but that sure was a thing that happened.
SUCCESS :(
Chickens... chickens everywhere
Party Members: Bucky-slash-Ivan and Angeal
Dice Roll: somehow rolled a 20... for catching chickens... wow
Summary or Thread: Apparently Angeal and Ivan are gonna be REAL GOOD at catching chickens! Maybe Ivan will get a job helping look after them part time after this :B Ivan will be so perplexed but hey, at least he has a metal hand for them to peck and it won't even hurt.
This is a bit backdated. Thread it's suggested in is here and it's been going since, uh, October.
SUCCESS!!
no subject
Party Members: Ardyn (
Dice Roll: We didn't roll because the point was to fail due to Ardyn being a chaotic gremlin dillhole who wanted to anger the chickens on purpose. So, you can take that as crit fails for both of them probably.
Summary or Thread: The thread is here and boy howdy, did they ever flub that one.
FAILURE
Trash or Treasure
Party Members: Ignis and Van
Dice Roll:
Ignis = 13
Van = 12
Summary or Thread: Coming together by coincidence since they both wanted to get some things done for Town, Ignis and Van prove to be moderately alright scrap scavengers! It helps that the ship carrying the Intellect Devourers probably left some things scattered all around in its crash, so it's an easier thing than normal to pick some things up here and there. Indeed, a couple of the local goblin pests seem to have similar ideas... but considering Van and Ignis's talents, they're taken care of without trouble.
