SIDE QUESTS

SIDE QUESTS
The world of Kenos has many mysteries to explore, and not all of them are directly tied to the ongoing plot of Meridian and Zenith struggling against each other to claim the Oracles. This page is for compiling what could effectively be called side content for the game, but these are all chances to explore the world of Kenos and have some unique opportunities to discover hidden lands and secrets, gain boons or treasure, or just deepen your CR! To be clear, these are all separate from Lore Quests and are posted as areas get added and/or Loremasters get ideas for quests.

Because these quests aren’t part of the overarching plot, they’re effectively “missions” that characters can choose to undertake and the exact way the mission plays out is up to you! Consider these more prompts for threads or open logs, but with a bonus of being able to receive something IC for the effort. For an example of how this might work, see here (at least until we get some side quests done). Sometimes this may be a magical item, or other times it might be a curse! Not every side quest you undertake has universally good outcomes, after all. Any quests with significant risk will be clear about that risk!

OOC, you’ll comment under a side quest to “claim” it by noting all participating characters, then once your thread/log/etc. for this mission is complete, you’ll return here to turn it in. Loremasters will then tell you the further rewards + outcomes. As a note, you can only have one active side quest per character at a time. If you decide that you don’t want to do the quest anymore, just delete your comment. If you run into an issue with completing it (such as the other party dropping), just get in touch with the mods and we’ll work it out with you.

So, without further ado, get to questing!

The monster-killing portion of Liem and Akua's hunting thread has been completed! Summary is as follows:

After a couple patrols of Meridian soldiers ended up dispatched by a mysterious beast, Liem and Akua ventured out to take care of it like the hotshots they are. Liem tracked it down to a region of forest where it seemed to frequent, and Akua laid a trap to snare it so it would be easy prey. The creature fought back with a disorienting sonic scream, and after weathering some projectiles and toasting, teleported away to lurk and (metaphorically) lick its wounds. Then Liem and Akua located it, immobilized it properly, and shot it full of holes.

The plan after this point is for them to examine the body to see what monster lore they can learn from its organs and such, and then Liem intends to cut off some bits to bring them back to the Meridian outpost as proof of their hunt, and also to bring down to Kowloon to sell.

Gross! Liem will enjoy cutting it open and frowning at all the weird insides. And then making money from its most delicious portions. 😊

The thing Liem probably would request is a copy of the Manual of City-Building, since it would be helpful for him in drafting his report on how to develop Alenroux further. Sorry he is such a workaholic who won't request anything for actual sentimental reasons.

Totally forgot to claim it.

It's here, though sadly, no live stream. Eustace and Mamoru met by chance near the location and started running towards the commotion of people fleeing the factory. Mamoru made some dents, but it was Werestace who eventually tore the man up (just a little) when Mamoru had been smacked down and disoriented and the Shimmered Guy almost killed Eustace, which prompted his transformation. Eustace then pounced on Mamoru, injuring him, but thankfully Lottie tied him up with his magic. Eustace was then subdued and dropped at his place for recovery. Mamoru basically had to take a break for a while after.

WE TRIED OUR BEST OK

Mams will always want bladed weapons or stuff that allows for him to work with his blades better. Lottie and Eustace find knives, hammers and guns acceptable.

So they're all going knife buddies and Lottie will be taking Knife 1, Eustace Knife 2, and Mamoru will want Knife 3.

Claude and Dimitri would like to claim this quest! They'll focus their rebuilding efforts on homes in the Katoikitikós district.

For rewards:
- Dimitri would like the scrying enchantment removed from a piece of jewelry he owns
- Claude wants a new knife that's easy to disguise on his person, for self-defence purposes. Can be magical or non-magical, surprise him Cetina :')
