Quests

Quests are difficult tasks with which a hero uses to take up their time.

They are assigned randomly and vary in difficulty and may even involve wasting time idly for no reason. The completion of a quest is measured in percentages but what does questing involve?

The hero travels many miles and does whatever the quest requires while traveling and each time they do this it fills up their quest progress bar a little bit more until it is full meaning the quest is complete. Along the way it is likely they will be forced to fight for their life against nasty Monsters and will encounter many strange things which they will document in their diary.

It is also likely that while questing they will gain much experience, gold and many artifacts. You can see what your hero is currently doing by looking at the 'News from the battlefields' box. If the hero is questing, resting, traveling or even fighting, he will let you know via this constantly updated news feed. You can see a record of the hero's adventures laid out in their diary too.

The rewards gained from accomplishing quests can be great. These are the known rewards; sometimes more than one will be gained:


 * Huge gain in Experience.


 * Several thousand gold coins.


 * Shiny new Golden Brick.


 * One or more rare Artifact.


 * Absolutely nothing.

As soon as a quest is completed, the hero will return to Godville and sell their whole inventory before blowing most of their money on useless objects.

On their way out of the town, they will then be set a new quest by a mysterious entity which is usually a strange man with a question mark floating above his head, a wandering monk, the town's gatekeeper, a knight of some respected guild, a message from heaven or even just a scroll they find on the floor, or which may have fallen from the sky and knocked them on the head.

They will then embark on their new quest with much pride.
