    Quest Board

    Just off the road in Central Brisshal, you find a little wooden cabin. It looks very much like any other building, but the sign outside proclaiming, "SEEKING ADVENTURERS, WORK AVAILABLE" catches your interest. It's not that busy of a place, but you do notice a few armed and armored people wandering in and out every so often.

    Poking in for a bit, you find that the humble exterior doesn't hide anything fancy on the inside. Wooden walls, wooden floors, a wooden table shoved into a corner with a wooden counter resting opposite of it, and a single lantern hanging from the far wall. On another wall there's a board, covered in pieces of paper and parchment of various sizes. As you enter, the man sitting at the counter looks up from the book he was idly reading.

    Hey. Welcome to my place. Not much to look at, but you know, it works. By the looks of it, you're an adventurer. In that case, have I got something for you to check out. See that board back up on that wall?

    There are a bunch of requests around there. Sometimes people need things done, and they can't find anyone to do it. That's where I come in. I get their requests, write them down for people who can't write, and leave it up there for people to take on. There's usually a reward attached too, if that catches your attention. I get a cut, of course. Broker's fee and all that. But it's still something, no?

    If you feel like taking one on, just let me know. Might have some advice for you. No offense, but you look kind of green. Wouldn't want you to get mauled on your first big adventure, eh?

    If nothing catches your fancy, maybe check back in a bit. I'll probably have something new up. There's always something that needs doing.



    With a chuckle, he settles back, returning to the book he left lying on the counter.

    • These quests are small little prompts to help you get started on an RP, if you can't think of anything on your own. If you would like to take a quest, either post in the #lfg channel in the TS Discord, or create a listing in the Group Finder board here on the forums.
    • You may not attempt a quest solo. We recommend groups of between 2-4 people to keep the thread from moving too slowly
    • Multiple groups can attempt the same quest.
    • There are no additional rewards for taking on any of these quests. Consider the mp and gp you gain from posting as the IC reward that you receive.

    O Brawling Love

    My father's never been pleased about my choice of partner. He's been sending thugs to harass my wife's family, and interrupt our business dealings at Agripalia's ports. My wife's father, Lord Evenway, has been kind enough to take me in when my own father had put a bounty on my head, so I would like to repay them. I plan on confronting my father at his manor to put a stop to the hired thugs, but I doubt he'll act in good faith during our talks. I'd like a few people who are not averse to getting rough if the situation does turn out to call for violence.

    More Dawnfeld and Evenway business, huh? They're practically cats and dogs with how often they get tangled up in each other's business. But I guess the rumors were true, the youngest Dawnfeld boy ran off with the Evenway heiress, and it looks like someone's unhappy about that. They're both rich families, and Sir Dawnfeld's pockets run particularly deep. That buys a lot of high-quality thugs, pickpockets, and all manner of unsavory folk. Keep an eye out.

    Mayday!

    Around a year ago, there were rumors of a ghostly ship drifting around the straits of Druuk Island that would spirit away any sailors that attempted to approach. A group of brave adventurers discovered that it was no ship--it was some massive beast that somehow resembled a ship, lured people in to devour them. That beast has thankfully been vanquished.

    But as of late, there's been some sightings of another few ships, drifting listlessly in the water. Smaller than the one before, each about the size of a large canoe, but it looks like there may be a pod of them out on the waves. If some people could find out if they're actually creatures or not, and if so destroy them, it would be deeply appreciated. The fisherman don't dare risk going out to sea while those "boats" still remain.

    Sailing out around Druuk Island, eh? Especially with a situation like this going on, best watch out for the Hangmen. Strange undead souls wandering the seas, looking for their old crews... Gives me the goosebumps, and leaves me thankful I don't live anywhere near Druuk Island.

    Vitamin C(ounterfeit)

    There's this new fad going on in Stokbon about this new kind of tea leaf that's supposed to make you lose a lot of weight and keep your skin smooth and stuff like that. You know, the kind of thing that all these middle-aged old noble ladies go crazy for. Fine with me if they want to throw away their money on this, since I'm getting paid for every batch I sell.

    But the thing with these fads is that everyone wants to pop up and do the same thing, so my business has got a lot of competitors. The biggest one is Quilliam's Teashoppe. But I swear that Quilliam isn't using authentic Esuilian Green Tea Leaves. I bet you anything he's using some local blend and just adding some cheap spices. I want you to catch him in the act of preparing his fake tea and get some proof to show to all of his customers. I assure you, you will be paid handsomely.

    ...And, if he's really not using fake leaves... I assume the same reward could be used to persuade you to convince Stokbon's high society that he does? That's just business, right?

    Apologies for the long wait in getting some new quests, but three new ones are up now if anyone would like to take them!
