Quests

Quests are a form of adventuring. In this RPG, it is a chance to earn Ryo but, also a chance to learn Attribute points and a possible Jutsu or Affinity. Quests are normally difficult but, there isn't a test that no one can pass. And that is the philosophy behind questing. There will be tests but, it is only meant to test your understanding of the game and your ability to use your character to manuever certain obstacles. Questing is more about how well you know your character and how well you can use your character. Questing will involve a bit of combat and a lot of puzzle solving.

Quests can be divided into 3 types. Errands, Missions and Crimes. Errands are general quests that everyone can perform but, typically the higher-ranked quests are reserved for the Imperials. Missions are quests that are meant for the Ninja Villages. Crimes are quests that technically anyone can take on but, doing so may change your Faction to the Syndicate. Quests are also an interesting part of storytelling as there can always be twists to the story. More importantly, the story behind quests are never the same. You may attempt the same quest with another character and the outcome will be completely different.

No matter what Quests must be done with a Narrator. There is a list of approved Narrators. If you need one send a request or simply PM that account. You can look for quests in the Looking for Group section of the forum. Use Ctrl+F to search up any of the topics in this chapter below.

Difficulty

Quests can range in difficulty. Much like the Faction Ranks, they can range between E,D,C,B,A and S-Rank difficulties. Errands begin at E-Rank and end at A-Rank. Only Imperials are able to take on B-Rank and higher Errands. Missions begin at D-Rank and end at S-Rank. Only the shinobi from Ninja Villages are able to take on Missions. Crimes begin at D-Rank and end at S-Rank. The moment you commit your first crime, you will considered a criminal.

E-Rank quests are the easiest quests and generally speaking anyone can complete them. They shouldn't be too difficult for anyone to complete. They typically do not involve any combat whatsoever. These quests should be smooth sailing without any plot twists.



D-Rank quests are somewhat just as easy as E-Rank but, they offer a bit more of a challenge to the player. They may include plot twists but, typically do not include any combat. Even though they don't have any combat, there is usually some aspect to the mission that will challenge your character.



C-Rank quests are basically when quests become difficult. Some combat will be involved and it is expected to have at least one plot twist. Fortunately, the highest threat level you will come across will be a Wild Beast.



B-Rank quests are difficult by nature. Combat is almost guaranteed and there's a moderate chance the quest will fail. The highest level of threat you will come across will be a Lesser Demon. There may or may not be a plot twist but, that won't be what makes the quest difficult.



A-Rank quests are essentially a pass or fail. You have a 50% chance of completing them or making your way back home. Combat is a must and there will definitely be a plot twist but, in some cases the quest is very straight forward. The highest level of threat you may encounter will be a High Demon. These quests also have the highest level of reward.



S-Rank quests are quests of the highest difficulty. These quests usually have a 10% success rate and there may or may not be a plot twist. In some cases the quests are straight forward but, that isn't the problem with these quests. Combat is 100% guaranteed and there is also the possibility of character death. It is also possible to live through the quest and not complete it at the same time. These quests are kept super secret so the reward for these quests can vary. The highest level threat you may encounter will be a Great Demon.

Completing Quests

Completing a quest comes with a reward. Rewards differ based on the level of difficulty for the Quests. All Quests are rewarded with Ryo and prestige. The more quests your character completes, the more of a name that character will have in the story. More importantly, when we write chapters for each Story Arc in this game, there will be a higher and higher chance of your character being mentioned in the text.

Outside of this, there are always a chance of being rewarded an item, a jutsu or mastery of a jutsu and mastery of an affinity. Very rarely will we reward Attribute points but, there is always a possibility. Especially if your character goes through some kind of character growth in the middle of the quest. Typically, lower ranked quests are easier to gain Attribute points from.

You can also be rewarded a new rank for completing certain quests. Especially quests of great difficulty. There is also the possibility of getting more random and secret rewards later, such as NPCs, more character slots or other things such as Popularity and Reputation points on MW Industries - Game Development and Software. Currently, our minds haven't entirely been made up on what type of rewards are available for quests other than Ryo. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to leave them in Questions, Comments and Concerns.

Failing Quests

Failing quests typically don't have that much of a consequence. Outside of lost of prestige, there's still a possibility that your character may be mentioned in the Story Arc. Completing quests also helps us write the Story Arcs. So you can fail the quest, without actually failing the quest. In some cases, you may still be rewarded Ryo even though you fail the quest. So don't take the failure so harshly, sometimes it's a part of writing the story. Usually these are quests of higher difficulty and there was probably a detail you missed which is why the quest ended in failure.

You will not lose Ryo for failing a quest but, you simply won't gain anything for failing it. You won't lose progress on learning your jutsu or affinity and you won't lose any Attribute points for failing. Though, there is always that possibility of being apart of the Story Arc even though you failed. Remember, at the end of the day, this is all about having fun. Try not to take yourself to serious. It's not an absolute failure unless your character gets killed off in the process. Even so, if your character dies, we are willing to let you create a new character that is either the same Rank or one rank lower than your killed character. We're all friends at the end of the day so try not to feel so bad about losing at a game.
