World Quest Idea: The Greed

Level: 79
Talk to Aaron in Aldorei.
EDIT: Sooo sorry for that color glitch, trying to fix it...
[1/8] Aaron: Hey, you! Yes, you, the humie! I have a task for you.
[2/8] Aaron: This is not just your regular simple task.
[3/8] Aaron: I need you to get arrested by the villagers of Llevigar.
[4/8] Aaron: Look, I know that sounds weird. I need to see how much greed the villagers have.
[5/8] Aaron: In the court, If they ask you to pay emeralds so you can be free, then we'll know they have lots of greed.
[6/8] Aaron: Do not pay them any emeralds. They'll throw you in jail, and I will sneak you out.
[7/8] Aaron: You'll do it? Excellent! Huge reward incoming if you do it!
[8/8] Aaron: Also...don't tell them about me...and how I told you to do this...

Quest Book:
Go to Llevigar and steal the emeralds from the bank's vaults.

When you do...
[1/2] Llevigar Policeman: Hey! Stop right there, criminal scum! Hm? Stealing from the Llevigar bank!?
[2/2] Llevigar Policeman: Huh, here I was, thinking you would stop the decay. Be our hero. How wrong I was.

You get a strong punch to the face, knocking you out...

You wake up in Llevigar's court. You look around, with no Aaron in sight. But then, you see a shadow pass by behind you.

You are startled to hear a gavel banging on the judge's counter.

[1/3] Court Judge: You, the hero of many, stealing from the vault? I cannot believe it.
[2/3] Court Judge: Pay emeralds to prove you are not guilty. If you don't, you better say bye to the light of day...
[3/3] Court Judge: No emeralds? Guards, send him to the jail cell. Bye, [Player's name]. We believed in you...

You wait, and wait for Aaron. Soon, you hear a click in the jail cell door, and to your delight you see Aaron.

[1/1] Aaron: What are you waiting for? Come on! Wait. Slight problem...I don't know the way back...

Quest Book:
Find the way out of the Llevigar prison, without getting caught.

If you get caught, you get sent back to jail cell with the door open.

If you make it out:

*Aaron walks out behind you*
[1/1] Aaron: Haha, it worked! Looks like they are quite gree-
[1/1] Llevigar Policeman: Got you! Stay right there!

At this point, you have two choices, both have a reward, you have to choose between telling the truth about Aaron to the Llevigar Policeman, or run away with Aaron.

If you choose Aaron:
You get teleported to Aldorei
[1/1] Aaron: Okay, now we ACTUALLY escaped. Here's a reward for your troubles...
[Quest Complete: The Greed]
+1000000 EXP
+50 EB
If you choose to tell the truth:
[1/1] Llevigar Policeman: Oh. That sounds more accurate then I thought...fine, sorry for you going through those troubles. Here, take these as an apology.
[Quest Complete: The Greed]
+800000 EXP
+1 LE and 32 EB


So guys, how does it sound?

 

Heh
But not a bad idea, I'm trying to work out if Aaron is the 'good guy' in this quest.
Also the exp reward should be the same for both choices if other choice-based endings are anything to go by, emerald reward and any items is fine though.

 

kinda like alerodies secret part 1 tho

 

Did you mean Aldorei? Lol

 

problem?
we dont have enough @Aarontti 's in the server for each server

 

This quest is boring, you literally walk up, do a thing, go here, run through a prison (you put no detail here) it just seems lik a fetch quest

 

shit quest

I mean it

Talk to Aaron in Aldorei.

[8/8] Aaron: Also...don't tell them about me...and how I told you to do this...

So your going to see how greedy people are, and your being paid to see how greedy people are.
is this the plot line?
Quest Book:
Go to Llevigar and steal the emeralds from the bank's vaults.

When you do...
[1/2] Llevigar Policeman: Hey! Stop right there, criminal scum! Hm? Stealing from the Llevigar bank!?
[2/2] Llevigar Policeman: Huh, here I was, thinking you would stop the decay. Be our hero. How wrong I was.

Most people don't know you that much, do you have Hero status yet?
[or am I wrong]

Why would you stop the decay tho?
most quests have you doing small quests, such as transporting items, or helping small towns or people
You get a strong punch to the face, knocking you out...

You wake up in Llevigar's court. You look around, with no Aaron in sight. But then, you see a shadow pass by behind you.

10/10 plot and writing
You wait, and wait for Aaron. Soon, you hear a click in the jail cell door, and to your delight you see Aaron.

[1/1] Aaron: What are you waiting for? Come on! Wait. Slight problem...I don't know the way back...

10/10 generated conflict
Quest Book:
Find the way out of the Llevigar prison, without getting caught.

If you get caught, you get sent back to jail cell with the door open.
WHY WOULD THE CELL DOOR BE OPEN?
make any exuse for it to make sense
If you make it out:


*Aaron walks out behind you*
[1/1] Aaron: Haha, it worked! Looks like they are quite gree-
[1/1] Llevigar Policeman: Got you! Stay right there!

At this point, you have two choices, both have a reward, you have to choose between telling the truth about Aaron to the Llevigar Policeman, or run away with Aaron.

[Quest Complete: The Greed]
+1000000 EXP
+50 EB

[Quest Complete: The Greed]
+800000 EXP
+1 LE and 32 EB

Wha.... Wha...... WHY?
Why would telling the truth give you more money?

Does telling the truth make you more greedy?

So guys, how does it sound?

Boring quest, 0 pvp puzzles, bosses, its a fetch quest without fetching anything
HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?


this is aldorei secret I

just worse
way worse

1/5
Bad plot, No entertainment, Fetch quest without fetching

This post was totally done by a bot, don't blame me for any of it's actions, its a dumb bot

 

Man, I guess everyone in this universe knows villagers are greedy af, so there's no need to get caught by the police to "prove it", just observe a random villager merchant and you'll see how greedy they are.

And, how does paying emeralds prove you're not guilty? Making the judge say you could pay emeralds to be forgiven for your crimes would make a lot more sense.
And finally, explain how you escape from the prison if you decide to do so, and if you choose instead to snitch on Aaron, write some special dialogue for him, like:

Aaron: (player), you used me.. betrayed me just so you could gain more emeralds from the villagers and keep your name clean.. I should have never trusted you. You are even WORSE than the villagers.

Final score: 3/10. Sorry my mang, +0.

 

1/10
This is a fetch quest.
Not that well written.
Add a mechanic or something new.
Add something besides walking and talking.
Not all quests are about choices.

 

k sorry quest sucked I shouldn't have shared this idea to the world because it sucks. No seriously tho. Im being serious... xD

 

Nobody mentioned that this is not only similar to Aldorei's Secret Pt. 1, but the second part of it is copying Forbidden Prison. Just think about it.
You get locked up in a prison even though you are innocent.
You have to escape said prison.

 

^

 

This makes absolutely no sense and reminds me of how poorly the CT handles actual themes in quests....

 

inb4 post deleted

 

what do u think? duh

 

Hey, atleast it isn't as bad as EotS, right? Right? hehe....

it is

 

is it okay if i try remaking the quest but... better .-.

 

JUST DO IT
save this quest


btw I did it for you

Here:

Spoiler

Speak to Elrund outside Aldorei Valley.

• Elrund: Greetings, Human. I assume you are here to enter Aldorei Valley?
• Elrund: I'm afraid we do not allow outsiders into our greedless sanctuary. All non-elf folk are the same.
• Elrund: Although, we are not close-minded. There is a test one can take to be granted access.
• Elrund: You come from the Wynn province, correct? There is a purple gemstone, if turned to dust, can be used in order to create a potion that can cure any illness.
• Elrund: I believe it is only found in a distant Jungle in your province, it is extraordinarily rare.
• Elrund: So if you wish to enter Aldorei, bring me some [Gemstone Dust] from the jungles of Wynn.

Obtain Gemstone Dust from the Wynn Province and bring it to Elrund (Requires completion of Lost in the Jungle).'

• Elrund: Ah, so you have acquired the gemstone dust? Good work, that was quicker than I expected.
• Elrund: I'll get started on the potion as soon as possible, thank so you much for your generosity.
• Elrund: This pure gesture will grant you primary access to the valley, but only if you do one more thing for me. I need uninvolved eyes on the scene in the valley.
• Elrund: You see, a few people in the valley have been disappearing at night.
• Elrund: I need you to find out why. There are likely clues all over town that my old eyes were unable to see. Often, when you look too hard, you cannot find anything at all.
• Elrund: If you discover the truth, I shall give you a great reward: Access to Aldorei Town, the village on the other side of the valley.

• Togak: Everything is in place, Daxand. I have such high hopes for the species.
• Daxand: As do I. From what I have seen they are powerful, if a little rash.
• Emie: Indeed. We do not know if their species are akin to our own, or to the villagers.
• Togak: Quiet! I hear someone coming. I believe our guest has arrived.
• Rausan: Ooh, he has figured it out.
• Togak: Indeed. The townsfolks will be pleased their efforts were not for nothing.

• Sol Embassy: Greetings, we are the Sol Embassy.
• Lucri: You have passed our little test of the Valley.
• Emie: We do apologise for leading you into thinking that we were something sinister.
• Daxand: But we have to make sure that you are of the same mind, not like some common Gert. Only someone with a strong mind would find their way here.
• Rausan: Indeed. The Sol Embassy was established to ensure that Elvish lands will never fall into the hands of sin.
• Lucri: The Embassy is a huge organisation. We hate all greed here, which is why no villager has passed our test.
• Emie: Elrund has rarely let anyone into our valley. You are a welcome sight indeed.
• Rausan: There are no missing people to be found. But the fact that you took it upon yourself to find out what was going on, is honourable.
• Daxand: Agreed. You have displayed many of the traits that we idealise.
• Emie: It is now up to Elrund if he allows you to enter Aldorei Town or not. Something weird definitely is going on there.
• Sol Embassy: Congratulations on your success, we welcome you to Aldorei. Return to Elrund now for your final verdict.

• Togak: I have watched Aldorei since the day it was built. I have seen it grow, like a flower...

• Elrund: As my Sunflower pendant flowers, I know that you figured it out.
• Elrund: But you were gone for a while, so I imagine you must have put a lot of effort into it.
• Elrund: I must apologise for the misgivings. I suppose a test like this must seem odd to a human. However trials such as these are common among our people.
• Elrund: I shall now grant you access to Aldorei Town. A place where no villager has ever set foot.
• Elrund: To get there however, there is another trial. I shall give you a clue. Listen carefully.
• Elrund: "To the east, eat only 3 bites from a treat of flour, then align the red with the flower."
• Elrund: I have also written this down in your quest book, but that is the last bit of help I can give you.
• Elrund: In the meantime, for helping with my investigation, I present you with these boots as a gift. I hope you use them wisely.

• Kansard: Hey! Those boots you have! They are mine, I lost them recently. I can't afford to pay for them, but I would sincerely appreciate their return.
• Corak: Those boots are worth a fortune! No way, if you found them, they are rightfully yours! I will happily buy them off you for a very good price!

If giving the boots to Kansard:

• Kansard: Incredible. Corak offered you a lot of money right in front of me, and yet you still chose to return them.
• Corak: Pity. I really wanted those boots. You missed out on a great deal. I was going to pay through the roof.
• Kansard: Stick a cork in it, Corak. The Human has made their choice. It sounds like you are being possessive, greedy, even.
• Corak: No, no. Not at all. I was just disappointed. I of course, respect the Human's honourable decision.
• Kansard: Indeed, thank you, Human. I am very grateful. You are a credit to your species.
• Corak: Oh, you were on your way to Aldorei town, weren't you? We got quite distracted.
• Kansard: Yes, of course! How rude of us. You can continue on to the town from here.
• Corak: We should warn you that the town is not like any you will have encountered. Elves are very different to other species, and some strange things are happening in the town.
• Kansard: Agreed. I would not go prying too hard into people's business in the town. I don't think I've ever seen a Human in the town, now that I think of it.
• Corak: Oh Kansard, let us not scare the Human before they have even seen the place! Go and explore, enjoy!
• Kansard: Oh, wait, take this. It's a common symbol of trust between two people in our culture. That is for returning my boots to me, I hope it serves you well if you need it.

» If giving the boots to Corak:

• Corak: You have made a grand choice, I am willing to pay you a lot of emeralds for those boots!
• Kansard: I suppose the law of “Finders keepers” do apply here, but I will not lie, I am disappointed.
• Corak: Now, now Kansard. We cannot judge the Humans decision harshly.
• Kansard: True. There are many who would have done the same.
• Corak: Well, this seems to be in order. They really are a nice pair of boots, Kansard.
• Kansard: I know, pity that I lost them. I spent many days searching the valley.
• Corak: Here you go, your money. Now that I think about it, why are you in this tunnel anyway?
• Kansard: Isn't it obvious, Corak? The Human has been granted access to the town.
• Corak: Oh, how quaint. A human in Aldorei, what a wonderful prospect.
• Kansard: Indeed it is. Elves and Humans have not had much contact. I do hope our views are akin.
