The Emerald Library - Midreign 46 Relic Quest
The populace fell silent as the crowned figure stood. Whispers of the barbarian king forsaken by the gods slowly spread across the land. The Emerald Hills strained under the burden of an unseen for who sent wave after wave of treacherous monster into the very heart of the kingdom. The people had grown weary, seeking answers from the monarch himself. Today marked the King Alby's midreign.
His reign was not peaceful. Mysterious crystal shards had appeared in the possession of those in power. Something sinister drove men of honor to commit unspeakable crimes against their people and their neighboring allies. Darker tides remained unseen, waiting to wash over the once proud landscape of the Golden Phoenix. Perhaps today, King Alby would provide peace of mind. Perhaps today, the people would be given hope.
Relic Quest Description:
Thought lost to the ravages of time and oblivion, the Emerald Library has been found by the studious dedication of Fionnagan Hellblazer. As the people gathered to celebrate the barbarian kings midreign, an untraceable source of ancient magic has cast a sphere of imprisonment encompassing the entire royal city. With renewed fervor to escape certain death, the populace rally around the king as they find the entrance to the Library and seek out the fabled Book of Emerald. It is believed that this book contains all the information necessary to defeat their common enemy.
King Alby selects special scouting parties to scour the library for any clues that can help crack the force walls veneer. Each team races against time before being trapped in the living library protected by traps and guardians. Will you be able to help the kingdom find answers in the fight against the newest threat to siege the royal city of the Emerald Hills?
Rules:
-Each team will consist of 6 players. Full class.
-Class limits apply.
-Kingdom and shard relics are in play.
[Shard Relic immunities: 4 Relics/Poison. 8/Poison, Subdual. 12/Poison, Subdual, Control. 16/Poison, Subdual, Control, Flame.]
-Pre-determined unoccupied campsites will serve as specific rooms in the Library.
-Teams should consider interacting with NPC’s/Monsters via RP. for maximum quest immersion.
-Monsters and reeves will assist in reeving and judging best of show and RP categories.
-All trap effects are mass effects i.e. they affect all players except for monsters. If you die in a room and are carrying a shard, you must drop one of those shards as your team exits the room to return to nirvana.
-Nirvana: There will be a centrally located nirvana. Your team will be allowed to purchase ‘reinforcements’ at a set price. Team captains can only purchase previous team members and can pay to have said player skip their full death count.
-Teams are considered ‘allies’ so they will not be able to engage in battle, but they can secretly set traps in a room (1 trap at a time) by either setting one of the pre-provided trap cards supplied or by purchasing a limited number of additional trap cards available through certain NPC’s.
-Not all monsters speak ‘common’ tongue. Rumor has it that a merchant has setup camp somewhere near the Library’s entrance and has translation tomes available for purchase.
-Rooms will contain pieces of a puzzle that will be presented to the Game Master for point tallying. First team to complete all tasks wins.
-If you are shattered, please consider playing as an monster, see Game Master for details.
-Have fun and ask questions. This isn’t a perfect design so bear with us as we work out the kinks!
