Quests: Kinds of questor personal tasks

Questors in Dreamland can give you the following types of quests:

• Boss Hunt (deadly): slay a real boss from five levels below you to ten levels above. Offered only while such a boss is alive and a day has passed since it last gave you a loot set: the same day that gates the loot it drops for you. When the hunt is missing from the questor's list, the questor says why after the list, and quest trophies shows when each boss pays you again. Bring a group: the kill counts for the whole group, and everyone who did a fair share of the damage gets a loot set of their own.

• Assassination: eliminate an unwanted element disrupting the balance of power or having wronged someone. This quest is conveniently completed in a group, as the kill counts even if your target was slain by a group member.

• Search for Royal Items: return an item stolen from the royal treasury by wrongdoers.

• Cook's Order: deliver wild game steaks to the cook (requires the butcher skill).

• Curing Illness: cure a patient of various ailments (requires knowledge of the appropriate healing skills, and in some cases where the diagnosis is not obvious, the diagnosis skill is also needed).

• Ambushes and Kidnappings: help a sobbing mother who has despaired of finding her child, or conversely, deliver a plump infant for breakfast to a ghoul. Surprises may await along the way. The escorted target will accept potions and pills from your hands and use them as needed: this will allow them to ram doors with their head or take flight when necessary.

• Holding Robbery Victims Harmless: help a victim of robbers by punishing the thief and returning the stolen goods to their owner. Some thieves prudently stash their loot in chests.

• Charming: beguile the target with your own magic and lead it, still charmed, back to the questor who gave you the task. Offered only to those who know a suitable ability: charm person, attract other, dominate or befriend.

• Collecting Lost Items: using the locate object spell or thieves' rumors, help absent-minded folk find their lost belongings.

• Clear the Rabble: rid an area of an infestation of various charlatans, preachers and other undesirable elements. These villains periodically drop special quest items (portraits, leaflets, fragments of existence, and others): collect them all to receive bonus experience. This quest is also conveniently completed in a group.

Beginners are not given the most difficult types of quests, but some quests may be easy or hard simply by their nature. We recommend starting your quest career with simple quests such as searching for royal items or curing illness. Then try your hand at assassination and so on. The bandit-clearing quests are suitable for those who want to gain a lot of experience.
