Character growth!

I will always stand by character growth!

Getting more OP doesn’t count!

Get more OP as part of character growth!

 

[Nahrenne]

I can keep thinking of ideas for a Spire Reef exam. ^^

I don’t favor the Kraken idea though.

Will continue to brainstorm on things!

Convince the crew you infiltrated to attack another - rival - pirate ship and assassinate their witch/shaman.
This would give a sense of loss from the crew members you will have got closer to while infiltrating, as well as having the danger factor of going against a powerful magic user who likely uses curses and hexes.
'-'

Just an idea.

Make an actual friend in Spire Reef and then kill them

That's what I was thinking of too, but like... I don't think that works, because like... How can you take this quest if you don't have a friend to kill in the first place?

And if someone just creates a friend to kill later, I doubt it will really leave any lasting impact on their character.

Actually if you replaced friend with snitch, that could work for a level 4 quest.

 

[Bochi]

@Bochi Hello my new level 8 comrade!

You're definitely going to overtake my spot as highest levelled adventurer soon, but that means I have someone to do (pester for) party quests with!

Back when Felicia was lower levelled I really wanted someone to do the Monster Nest quest with but no one was close at the time

This plot is a slightly too specific to be generalized meaningfully for most characters. At least, that’s my opinion.

Honestly, I think an easy solution is reveal that @GM is actually an evil mastermind who has a broad swath of secret agents who carry out “top secret” quests that break the law for the greater good.

For instance, directing an agent to kill innocent people so that the spy can infiltrate deeper into the enemy networks.

Morally dark and questionable stuff!

Yeah, but no one would be surprised by that reveal

Oh...
...I was going off the fact that players would most likely have done the infiltrate the network quest for the spire reef...

...x...

 

[ohko]

In other words, actually we were the bad guys all along

Would probably add a “Top Secret” label to quest reports to indicate that it’s not common knowledge. Can even go in tiers like “Top Top Secret”.

Most adventurers would think that the guild serves the peace and justice of the world but actually at the same time there’s a secret half of the guild that is plotting evil things.

Easy solution for players who want to play both goodguys and bad guys...

If its like that, wouldn't it also be good to include a quest to infiltrate the guild itself and destroy your adventurer's registration? So there would be no trace of you?

This is good too but I still like the find treasure quest idea

I'd like to think of the guild as an grey entity that does things mostly for profit, except it tends to have a higher bottom line compared to the likes of an assassin organisation or the like.

Basically I think it’s fine to let people interpret the guild as good or bad as they want. Let the conspiracy theories come!

That said, Scribel City itself I think would be fairly law-abiding, so there is definitely a hidden element somewhere. How many people know about @GM’s true objectives? How morally low will the secret quests go???

 

[Feathers95]

Be my champion~!

Sponsor: Julrik, Supervisor Leader of AG Offices and Customer Service Department

Location: Scribel City and outskirts

Level: 5

Objectives

Can only defeat one per quest: Defeat David Fralden - a human who loves wielding a bo. Defeat Ku'Jahal - an orc who loves using a poleaxe. Defeat Eugene Sanders - a human wizard who has a penchant for lightning magic. Defeat Jakob Hilljkoff - an elf who is skilled with a bow and arrow. Defeat Boris Tinkler - a human who has some skill with a sword and shield. Defeat Henrik Jueller - an elf who knows a lot of plant-based spells (be careful of poison) Defeat Junji Ishikabe - a human who uses a katana, as well as a bow and arrow (optional) Don't kill them. (optional) Humiliate them.

I like women. I mean, what kind of man doesn't? Right? Women also really like me. They practically beg me to bed them with their coquettish eyes! Anyway, it seems some people are jealous of my popularity and have thus sent me seven challenges to duels! Since I am a man of intellect and the arts, and despise physical conflict, I have decided that I shall hire a champion to take my place! A word of warning, my dear defender of my handsome self, these men have all achieved E rank...I even gave them their badges myself when they passed... As such, I will leave this quest open for each challenger. Best of luck, my beloved champion~! Mwah~!

Evaluation

"Hmm, well everything checks out. And, level eight already huh? It's seems like almost the other day since I saw you at level 7." Smirking he chuckled "I suppose those 10 G and 20 G classes are off the table? Anyway enough of my banter here, the promised rewards."

Final Reward:
300 Exp
50 G

I don't want to be that guy but since Felicia didn't kill the elf shouldn't she be awarded the second tier rewards?

Felicia is always willing to teach her prized pupil, I've said it before and I'll say it again!

Training (Closed)

Spoiler: Training

Holding his sword above a slime. He watched silently as it bounced and slid around. Swinging his sword down. He expected to hear a sickening sound of fluids flying all over the place. But, finding his sword hovering just over the slime. He smiled bitterly, teach had taught him a little too well.

Sighing, he looked down on the shivering slime and picked it up muttering “I swear if you bite me, I’ll be pissed.” not that the slime could understand him anyways.

Heading out of town and into the fields he dropped it off. Watching the shivering slime expression turn into one bouncing of happiness. He felt a little warm.

After that his morning routine had one more thing added to it. Training with the guards, scouting for information, and now dropping herb slimes he found back into the forest.

At night he constantly read the elemental tome he had bought previously and tried to practice magic without much luck.

Until one day during his training, he heard something weird from one of his sparring partners. His swordsmanship was becoming strangely aggressive and tricky to deal with. Sort of like a snake.

Hearing that he quickly went back to his room and grabbed a notebook from under the bed. There were crudely drawn sword stances and movements from what he had learned before from Felicia. But, as he tried going back to the basic stances she had taught him. He frowned as the movements that came to him easily before became uncomfortable and limiting.

No, he wasn’t going to fold that easily. Forcibly doing the basic stances every morning. His swordsmanship slowly returned to his old style. But, from time to time he found weaknesses, mistep, things to exploit. Sometimes it could be a sword swung too hard other times it was a small bit of hestration that left an opening either way his swordsmanship slowly shifted to exploiting those weaknesses rather than clashing.

Soon he moved from human targets to animals. Walking into the sewers, his nose wrinkled up on the smell. What’s worse was that he couldn’t see anything. But in here were giant rats and lurking in the water were the slimes.

With his footsteps echoing behind him he heard a growl come from in front of him. Unable to see he swung his sword forward.

Feeling a pulse of pain coming from his arm and the feedback from his sword hitting the ground. He forced himself to drop his sword to the ground and use his free arm to unstealth his dagger to plunge into the rats body.

With it not letting go, he stabbed it again and again and again until it was dead. With blood covering his clothes. He continued on. The dark made it difficult. The second rat he killed took two stabs before it went down. The third he was able to bash it with his sword and finish off. At twentyish he was able to figure out their patterns without getting injured. And at thirty he was forced to go back to the dorm.

To which he was forced to stay in bed for some time. With a lecture for his troubles and porridge to eat. And, a book to read and time to practice magic. The days passed by quickly.

By the time he was able get out of bed he gained the ability to summon sand. Not very useful, unless he wanted to blind his sparring partner.

Going back into the tunnels, he used what he learned from his previous encounters with them. The tunnel rats while big lacked the intelligence that their race was famed for. And, were evolved to be more territorial than their previous counterparts. Making their attacks more or less predictable.

With the sewers limiting their options to dashing to him in a straight line or jumping towards him if they wanted to attack him. The ones that jumped always were a guaranteed death sentence for them since he was already accustomed to the sound and which swing to use. Rather it was the ones that dashed at him that gave him trouble. Stabbing or slashing was good enough but he ran the risk of damaging his sword. So to prevent this he used the sheathed version of his sword. And, finished them off with his dagger.

Returning to the dorms, he continued this routine for a while. Until he decided he was ready to return to the guild.

Can you believe that Cassel used to be unable to even lift a sword? Look at how much he's grown *wipes tears* Felicia would be so proud!

Damn can you believe that when they first met and became teacher and student Felicia was only level 4 and Cassel was level 1?

As long as it's work in an office, it can be anything.
However, appraising reports isn't really classed as part of it since anyone can do that anyway and get a percentage of the reward.
'-'
If you're stuck, though, most people tend to have their characters sorting through documents, categorising (npc) evaluated reports, organising files, etc...
