Quest Idea: Prospecting

Hello people, this is the second quest idea thing I've had and I think it's going to turn out crappy but here I go.
It's supposed to be about a prospector who was robbed of his gold and hires you to find it. You track it down by speaking to residents of the Mesa leading to something deep underground where you learn that the gold is cursed and various creatures, villagers and gangs are after it.

Quest level thingy: 50
Speak to Dax in the cave at [coords] GM', just build some random cave in the mesa and fill it with crates, supplies and a small pond. The kind of stuff a lone prospector/miner or a survivalist might have.

Before quest
Dax: Hey, some of my gold was stolen.
Dax: Can you help me find it?
Dax: Oh no, you're too low of a level. Come back when you're level 50 please.

When you're at the right level

Dax: Hey there adventurer.
Dax: I need your help...
Dax: Recently while I was sleeping, a ghostly figure snuck into my cave
Dax: and robbed me of almost everything except my equipment, food and emeralds.
Dax: Maybe you can track it down by speaking to one of the Rymek Sentries.
Dax: He should be outside of Rymek near a fellow named Svin.

If you come back to him before speaking to the sentry

Dax: Please speak to him and help me find my gold. Track those thieves down for me.

Upon speaking to the sentry before starting the quest

Rymek Sentry: Hey there adventurer, seen any of those nasty coyotes?
Rymek Sentry: No? I guess the livestock will be safe.

Upon speaking to him after starting the quest

Rymek Sentry: Hello there adventurer, how may I assist you?
Rymek Sentry: Oh a prospector was robbed?
Rymek Sentry: Now that you mention it, a few nights ago
Rymek Sentry: I saw a wraith like figure dart away from Rymek nearby,
Rymek Sentry: I'm thinking he ran towards Almuj.
Rymek Sentry: Try talking to an Almuj Guard, one of them may have some information.
Rymek Sentry: Your welcome...

Upon speaking to the Almuj Guard before starting the quest

Almuj Guard: Good day adventurer. Keep an eye out for any hostile creatures.

Upon speaking to the Almuj Guard after starting the quest

Almuj Guard: Hello adventurer. What can I do for you? robbers?
Almuj Guard: Oh, one of those prospectors from the mesa was robbed.
Almuj Guard: Well here's what I know.
Almuj Guard: You say he was in this cave?
Almuj Guard: I heard a myth when I was a kid
Almuj Guard; That a vein of cursed gold was placed near that area.
Almuj Guard: And whoever mined it or claimed it.
Almuj Guard: Would be robbed by a ghostly creature or enemy prospector.
Almuj Guard: And be cursed with something. The curse part was probably made up.
Almuj Guard: Now... I did see a dark figure run towards one of those buildings at
Almuj Guard: [coords], perhaps there is a hideout within or something
Almuj Guard: Your welcome.

[Quest Book updated]
Explore the tiny house.

Soon you should find a puzzle. Upon beating it, a hole in the floor will open leading you into a dark room where you are teleported.

Oh boy, here comes the mobs.

Cave Apparition

Mob type: Invisible skeleton wearing Enderman head.
HP: No idea. whatever the heck you want.
Sounds: Dragon death (when killed) Villager dead (idle)

Bloodthirsty bat

Mob type: Bat
HP: No idea.
Sounds: The sounds a bat would make.
Damage: dunno
Level: 49, Dun't ask.
Spell thing: Throws a coal at you

At the end of the cave, there is another puzzle which opens up a hole in the floor and you fall in, being teleported into a giant fancy room that looks old, overgrown, possibly sandy? and ruined.

Boss fight

Wraith Thief
Mob: Wither Skeleton, wearing enchanted purple and black leather. Nothing on head.
Level: 54

Upon bringing the gold back to Dax

Dax: Hey, you're back.
Dax: Took a while, what'd you find out?
Dax: Oh my.
Dax: Thank you so much!

[Quest Completed]

[+35 EB]
[I don't know how much exp]
[Prospector's Luck (Amulet)]

Of course there must be stats for the prospector's luck.
BUT, plenty of buts... heheh am ev1l
I don't know how to decide stats so go ahead and think whatever you want.

So good bye.

________________________________

Also for the 1 stack of gold, my mistake, it's supposed to be a gold block named Stack of Gold. CYA FELLAS

 

1. Rip Dark Themers
2. Proper Quest Coloring
3. XP is around 40-50,000
4. 35 EB? Kinda lame if you ask me.
5. Please actually put the health and damage, as well as regen, it doesn't look half as good when the mob stats nothing but what it looks like.
6. So... Instead of running in and busting the hideout or at least informing his sergeant the moment he pieced it together, the Almuj Guard just tells you that and just stands there? Same with the Rymek Sentry: He just stands there going "Oh cool, really suspicious looking dude dashing towards Almuj, better not tell anyone"

 

Nice, add a poll

 

The One-eyed Guy thank you for telling me, that might help me make future improvements.

 

One thing I am kind of bugged of.
Rymek is a level 35-40 area.
A level 50 quest would be very weird.
