Funny quest
« on: July 14, 2008, 11:44:27 am »

I started a new adventurer in the latest version, and my first quest was rather funny.  The resident axe lord (no mayor?) informed me that the town has a fearsome foe: Naza Prideyelled, the giant, who stole their carp meat!

I think he murdered somebody, too.  But theft of carp meat is an extremely serious offense, and for this he must surely die.

Have you ever tried getting meat from a carp? Good men have died for that carp meat.

Hah, I had to kill a giant too. For some reason, there was no cave, and the giant just wandered outside. But he left idols, crowns, and amulets around everywhere. I think he was a craftsgiant. Also, im playing in the year 200.

EDIT: Also, the hammer lord that gave me the quest is in a faction called the crew of crafting. I'm a religion cult that worships the deity Taba Bluefish. We praise the ocean and salt. The high preist told me to consider salt in the morning, and everybody greats me with a "praise salt"

This is somewhat unrelated, but I revisited the town and attempted to start a war between factions (by killing random people).  Unfortunately my adventurer was immediately knocked unconscious by a lucky hit from a Spearman.  To add insult to injury, the killing blow was struck by a peasant!

Anyway, my next adventurer went back to the same town.  Apparently I succeeded in initiating hostilities, because I was immediately attacked... by the same peasant which killed my previous adventurer!

He greeted me just like a quest monster would, "I am John Doe.  I killed {Adventurer's name}, whose thrusts I considered ineffective.  Prepare to die!"  Something like that, anyway.  He went down pretty quick, though, considering he had no armor and no Spearman to do the dirty work :)
