Quests and NPCs

Back: Home

1) What this system is

Quests and NPC dialogue drive most early and mid progression. This page is spoiler-light by default, with optional detail blocks.

2) Who should use it

• New players needing direction.
• Returning players re-routing progression.
• Group leaders coordinating class and side progression.

3) Core rules (exact mechanics)

• Current tracked quest file in repo lists 42 quests.
• Main onboarding runs through tavern/trainer/devotion chains.
• Class path has weapon quest + devotion followups.
• Quest interactions are NPC and objective driven (talk/kill/area/fishing/crafting style objectives).
• Quest progress is character-based, not shared across all characters on your account.

4) Progression path

Spoiler-light backbone:

1. Knocking on Haven’s Door
2. Meet the Trainers
3. Choose Your Devotion
4. Your class weapon quest
5. Town development chains (miner/farmer/weaver/blacksmith/quartermaster)
6. Mid progression chains (rift/arena/hive-related progression)
7. Class devotion II at higher levels

Optional quest chain detail (spoiler-light list)
