From The Final Challenge Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

For the Wyld

With no more than three mortals to help, slay the following creatures:

With only the Lady of the Hunt's aid:

  • Clear the Master's Tower, killing each and every creature.
  • Kill the unique monsters of the Demon Realm and one of each type of Demon there


- Proof of all of these tasks must be obtained and kept until the end of your Trial.

For the Wyrm

Tasks for Community and People:

Tasks for the Land and its Spirits:

  • Petition the Area Coordinators to update an existing 2x Zone to current economy and writing requirements. (NOTE: This was disallowed by the Area Coordinators, and instead, Ink is co-writing a brand new zone: Riverhold.)
  • Map the following areas: Baba Yaga's Hut, Candlespyre Mountain, and The Triton Halls. (post to the wiki)
  • Find the chamber in which a spider sigil provides safety for one who has seen what cannot be unseen.

Tasks for Resources and their Utilization


For the Weaver

  • Write a character history, minimum 500 words. It may not contain the word 'swarf.' Sent to Katrana and Cordir, and posted to the wiki.
  • Write a series of spell emote triggers (minimum 3) and at least one Immortal pray/tell trigger. Their use is required.
Ink quietly mops up his puddle in attempts to conceal his tracks.
Ink utters the words, 'pass w/o trace'. Ink says, 'Shhhh...'. Ink says, 'Aaaaaughibbrgubugbugrguburgle!'. Ink coughs. Ink gargles a bit of salt water and tries again. Ink utters the words, 'tongues'. Ink splashes water onto his dry, fishy eyeballs. Ink utters the words, 'true seeing'. Ink can see again!
  • Take on three Geasa and swear them before Katrana and Guardian at minimum. (Ink Takes Geasa (Triat Mastery Quest))
  • Perform an act of service for a friend, an enemy and a stranger. Explain to the recipient, Katrana and Cordir how that action glorified an aspect of the Triat. The CRs may not be included.
  • Actively develop the leadership skills of others by serving in a subordinate role. No leading groups for the duration of the quest. Focus on teaching others the means of being better leaders, group awareness, etc.
  • Work with the other two Triat Initiates to craft an RP event, focused on another, not yourself, for the Hunt as a group or the mud as a whole.
  • As you have been unwilling to acknowledge your Dwarven heritage, calling yourself a 'swarf'... for the duration of the quest, it will be stripped from you. You will be Reborn as another race, with another home town, upon acceptance of this quest: Turned into a Sahuagin.
  • For the duration of your quest, you are forbidden the dance of death. You may not risk your life in attacking others, or standing and fighting when attacked. You are _required_ to flee and abjure all player combat for the duration of your Trial.
  • Hold your own life sacred. Frivolous death is forbidden to you. If you experience Rebirth more than three times during your quest, it will be held as failure. Die three times while on this quest and you fail.
    • NOTE: Corri, a Triat Master, begged a mercy at this point in the quest, asking that three failures might be taken on her shoulders, prior to failure. Should Ink die a fourth, fifth, or sixth time on quest, Corri would sacrifice her own life (a full level), to prevent failure. This was accepted by Cordir and Katrana.


Notes:

  • Ink completed all but one task: the creation of a map of Baba Yaga's Hut. Several items were to be posted to the wiki -- which crashed the night of his deadline. Because to some small extent, his failure was not his fault, Ink was given a unique opportunity: To complete Vale's quest, holding all of the restrictions of both quests, in three months time. On 03/14/13, however, he violated one of Weaver's Sacrifices, and engaged in combat with another mortal, at the behest of his Wyldess.

Weaver's Acknowledgement

Someone has transferred you.
A Midnight Garden
[Exits: none]
The breathtaking loveliness of a midnight shadowed garden embraces you. The
night sky is filled with stars... no, not stars, but strands of light which
shimmer at the edges of sight. The soft call of unseen birds provides sweet
melody to please the ear and the low hoot of an owl echoes out of the trees,
only to be answered by the harsh, mocking scream of a carrion crow. A thick
tangle of web-shrouded crimson briar roses marks the boundaries of the area
and every conceivable variety of flower blooms within, despite the darkness.
At the center of the garden lies an ornate multi-tiered fountain, ebon fire
lighting the cascades from within. Benches have been placed invitingly in a
semi-circle around the stone basin of the fountain, set just inside a thick
band of mithril.
No one has been through here recently.
(White Aura) A distressingly large, shiny black spider weaves webs here.

Cordir has granted you the ability to see her when she is invis.

You bow before her.

Cordir regards you with a look of mingled sorrow and humor.

You frown at what she did.

Cordir says, 'I demanded Sacrifice, did I not?'.

You say (in sahuagin), 'That you did'.

Cordir says, 'I knew it would be a great burden to you.'.

You nod.

Cordir says, 'Once before it was asked:'.
Cordir says, 'that a wyldling suppress that inner fire'.
Cordir says, 'do you know his name?'.

You say (in sahuagin), 'I do not'.

Cordir says, 'My sister honors him in her temple: Huey'.

You nod.
You say (in sahuagin), 'That's the one!'.

Cordir says, 'But then, it was Wyld's sacrifice'.
Cordir says, 'once before, Weaver's sacrifice has been set aside by an initiate'.
Cordir says, 'in service to another'.
Cordir says, 'You have broken your oath not to attack'.

You nod.
You frow. What's bothering you?

Cordir says, '.. but in your Lady's service and Mine'.
Cordir says, 'While you cannot be named Triat Master'.
Cordir ruffles your dwarven hair.

You giggle in her presence.

Cordir says, 'I do name you true to your own nature.'.
Cordir says, 'please remove Initiate from your title'.
Cordir says, 'and replace it with Wyldling'.
