    Calling out all inhabitants of Novia,

    Pikegirl's in Session! Fledgling content creator from Bandit Lords of Baubbleshire (BLoB) at your service.

    With BLoB and the SotA community in mind, I'll like to present you my vision...


    What is =Flash Quest= and Why?

    A series of connected player-centric Quests, revealing them at random timings in the Forums for players to complete within a time span.

    ---3 simple steps to start--->


    1. Check the stickied =Flash Quest= Tickers just below this post, or live updates in Live Thread Mill.
    2. If a Quest has finished LOADING... and turns ACTIVE!, you're in luck!
    3. Contact Pikegirl in forums or game to book a slot for that Quest.

    Objectives are straightforward; providing aid for a cause, finding/escorting a player to certain locations, or retrieving an item/s.

    They could also easily escalate into rare boss hunts, opinion polls, math puzzles, mysterious whodunits and special scenes involving multiple live players!

    Role-playing the Quests or Scenes is not mandatory but players are highly encouraged to participate. The conversations often give new twists and turns which I'll pick up on and weave into even more content for future Quests!

    Rewards range from Gold, Cotos, Crafted Items, Resources or
    Special, and you'll get to be placed on our Quest Leader-boards.

    Sooo, need more reason?

    Whenever players complete their Objectives and collectively push a Quest to 100% SUCCESS!, progress will be made on the overarching
    The Story So Far storyline stickied just below in the thread.

    If the Quest FAILS!, the story will move on in different direction, and its severity based on the percentage achieved in that Quest itself.

    All these outcomes indirectly shape BLoB's future in Novia, spawning new =Flash Quest= plot branches and heck, even Real-Life game decisions!

    The fate of BLoB and her merry rag-tag bunch of heroes is in your hands (kinda).

    =Flash Quest= is 100% community based and not profit-oriented in any way. We do have Bob the Flash Quest Vendor at our Crash Site selling various perks for those want to show support for the project or its development.

    We can also be contacted for specific requests or projects. All sales and donations are publicly acknowledged in our official Thread as well.

    Have a good day, think up a storm, and let's shape up an epic tale together!


    (7/9/16): Officially stickied as a Community Project by @Berek & the Devs!
    (10/9/16): @Autumn Willow (Deco & Scenes), Ceryph (Plot), @Ihuma & @rednought (Support) joins team.

    The Story So Far
    by Pikegirl


    The Bandits made Celestis their base and home, not realizing that the dreaded Lag had inflicted the entire town, rendering normal activities impossible.

    Hope came in the form of a lonely avatar named Ihuma, pilot of a futuristic black airship who had stopped en-route for supplies.

    He took pity on Pikegirl and gang, volunteering to bring them back along with him to his own world; supposedly optimized for smooth banditry and plunder.

    As fate would decree, the next few days saw the worst weather Novia had ever experienced, with savage winds exceeding a hundred knots and thunderstorms galore.

    Ihuma lost control of his airship and crash landed in a corner of a populated town near the coast of Brittany.

    Wooden chests, expert crafting stations, weapons, armor, resources and terrified tax-free vendors were scattered all over the flat grassy pitch.

    Pikegirl let out a grimace from the incessant thumping in her head, but was heartened to see no one seriously hurt.

    "Brittany Estates! Welcome to-" the town crier exclaimed merrily...

    With the help of kind avatars and many buckets of water, the Bandits doused a potentially explosive situation at the Crash Site.

    Autumn; ghetto improvisations from her brilliant mind, put up a list to secure the damaged airship to the plot. It started slowly, but the stricken vendors got it done with several buy orders and regained much of their morale.

    Trufall mentioned something about seeing a blue glow just before the crash, similar to what happened to her friend Womby, another dimension traveller from Aerie.

    A couple of days later, Ceryph, Kohei and Booshi began the call for meats to be sent to the site to store up for the cold season ahead. Avatars from around the land came again with bags of raw food to help out, one by the name of Lolly Lardbottom.

    Lolly is from the Estates himself and owns Lardbottom Electrics and Bakery.
    He owns an older model of the Airship and offered more help in future to get the Airship in working condition.
    The short-handed Bandits managed to get their Kitchen and Crafting Ground going, even with half their men missing and Simone the Groundsman lazing about at the back.

    Word arrived that Soylent Green, a hardworking miner friend of Pikegirl, was in trouble at his Graff workplace and needed a plan to free himself from the influence of the powerful Graff Conglomerate.

    Avatars came forth with many original ideas, eventually bringing Soylent (Paper form?!- @Doctor) through the Vauban Pass and back to the Estates as a Head Groundsman (Xel, Rada, Elyan) and Brittany Rat-Catcher (Lolly).

    The Graffs will not let this go easy, and BLoB might have bitten off more than they can chew this time...

    Meanwhile, Pikegirl is beginning to set up Vendor services at the Crash Site.

    Bob, the underachieving common vendor, got a well-deserved break and ended up as BLoB's official Flash Quest Perks Vendor.

    In his eagerness to please, Bob overworked himself and the Crash Site sought help to install a Blue Awning for him to rest in between breaks.

    Joe, BLoB's other Vendor of Plunder, set up his wares at the other wall, selling Scraps, Add Ons and cosmetic items while buying in COTOs to save for the future.

    Pikegirl stepped up her search for threee of her missing Bandits, namely Ihuma, Reuge and Booshi. The other two, Kohei and Xilver, have sent letters of absence, citing patching problems.

    Then came the news.

    Ihuma now resided in Owl's Head; mad with false ego, hate and imaginary money squirrels. He was hell-bent on creating his own community there after feeling wrongfully blamed for the Crash and troubles that started this all.

    Reuge was found in a clearing off Owl's Head Mines, flush with his well-circulated Raffle investment gains, and practicing the dark arts of Chaos. His heart was still with the Bandits, but he claimed it was not time yet to return home.


    Meanhile, Booshi had gone back to Celestis but realized that things there were not much better off. The Lag was still present, and Simone, BLoB's former Tax-Free Vendor, was giving him hell for not reinstating him as the face of his apparel store.


    He wrote a short letter to Pikegirl, letting her know his intention to move away permanently from Celestis and return to the Estates to regroup with the Bandits.
    Things were just starting to heat up.

    Pikegirl thought that luck was finally back on their side, and looked forward to doing up more at the Crash Site for Christmas, after having set up a Gustball Stadium for a couple of weeks and currently, a public Chess lot site.


    Nicos Quaffi, head of Brittany Estates Social Affairs, brought bad news saying that the Maxell family, who had two of their family members die on the night of the Crash, wanted those responsible to pay for their deaths.

    With their own deaths, of course.

    Ihuma, never the same again after the accident, had gone missing, leaving Pikegirl to bear the brunt of their anger. Again with the help of resourceful Avatars, she managed to cook up evidence of her "death" through photos, skulls and even a public notice!

    The Maxells were partially content, but whispered more into the ears of Nicos. His eyes widened...

    Meanwhile, legally dead Pikegirl left the Estates to hide at Twin Foothills, her regular hunting ground. From there and through the Novian Thought Channel, she again plotted her way back to her Crash Site without being noticed, albeit great help from the New You Saloon.

    Back at the Crash Site, Autumn had more bad news.

    Nicos bore news of the mounting pressure to halt the Bandits from continued development of the Crash Site, and had the Estate's Domestic workforce clear up part of the rubble and mess strewn around the area.

    He told Autumn (with Pikegirl listening nearby in disguise of a gardener of course) that their days in the posh area of Brittany are numbered, and that they better be mentally prepared for eventual eviction.

    Title
    Price of Progress
    by Pikegirl
    Scene: Autumn Willow
    NPC: Pikegirl

    Description

    Surveying the Crash Site and reading a letter in her hand, Pikegirl was quietly satisfied.

    She was back in the fold in the disguise of a common gardener and hanging around at the back of the site.


    Booshi had sent notice from Celestis saying that he was returning to the fold in the coming weeks, a welcome addition to the dwindling manpower at the Estates.

    "One in three is not too bad I suppose...", she consoled herself.

    Against all odds and with only a few pairs of active hands, the Bandits had set up a nice camp for the months ahead, ready for anything that fate can throw their way.

    Well, almost anything.

    Nicos Quaffi, head of Brittany Estate's Home Affairs, grim faced and flanked by two uniformed cronies, stands at the makeshift pathway, signalling for Autumn to go over.

    "As you know, the Airship that is in your former leader's possession razed an entire town house residence to the ground, causing irreparable damage. I could look past that,"

    Nicos clears his throat.

    "...but the families of the sixteen injured and two dead wants closure."

    "They do not want you and your bandits thinking for a minute that you could develop the site and make a permanent HQ, mingling around the higher-class citizens as if you belong."


    Objective
    Contact Pikegirl about the situation.
    Get 3 Players staying in Brittany Estates to sign a Petition or write a Vouch allowing continued development on the lot.


    Reward/s
    1000 Gold, Petitioner title

    Scene: Brittany Area
    NPC: Pikegirl


    Description

    Nicos quietened the Social Affairs mob at the Estates meeting room.

    "We've got it done. Pikegirl repaid the deaths of the Maxell family with her own. Now, the next step to protect our beloved community is to halt the progress these riff-raffs are making at the Crash Site."

    He showed a couple of pictures of her corpse on the ground, and gestured to an odd-looking skull placed on a wooden table to the side. Its jawbone looked crooked, as if it was showing a slight sneer.

    On the other side of Novia at her favorite hunting ground of the Twin Foothills, Pikegirl decided on her next move.

    She'll have to make her way back into the Brittany area unnoticed, and help Autumn and Booshi secure the Crash Site.

    It is suicidal to go back like that. But is there a better plan?

    Objective
    1st 5 Players to contact Pikegirl.
    Help her come up with a plan to return to Brittany Estates.
    Escort her back to the Crash Site unnoticed.

    Plot: Pikegirl
    Scene: Autumn Willow

    Description

    "Arrgh! My precious...!"


    Ihuma points frantically towards the burning airship perched dangerously
    about seventy feet above; trapped in mid-air between some partially decimated
    roof structure.

    Rubble can be seen on the grassy plot where a small townhouse once stood,
    thick smoke rising from the wreckage.

    "The fire's already spreading to the ship's hull and nearby trees and as we speak!
    We'll need lots of water to put this baby out! Quick, before we are left with nothing
    but a charred memory of dark leather and twisted metal!"

    The seven bandits spread out, looking for any assistance they can get.

    the Public Chest of the Crash Site situated

    Scene: Autumn Willow


    Description

    "The Vendors should be more at ease now that the Airship is not a ticking time bomb
    waiting to explode", mused Autumn.


    Six Reuge, the bandits' enchanter and merchant-major, poked at them,
    bellowing orders that they still did not seem to get.
    Their demeanour looked calm;

    too calm for the services they were supposed to do.

    Autumn pulled Six back and called for patience.

    "Let's go slow and allow them to ease into their natural roles.
    I've a small list of

    items that are needed for the ship's proper anchorage. The vendors
    could help advertise them in their Buy Orders and make this happen."

    Objective

    and sell exactly 1 item to any of our tax-free vendors.

    Scene: Autumn Willow


    Description

    With the immediate threat of a raging fire gone and the vendors' confidence bolstered,
    the Bandits now place their priority on self sustenance and food stocks.


    Kohei ZeTamer and Booshi Ren, nicknamed Hunters of Nature, start to calculate the amount of food supplies needed,
    knowing that a well-filled stomach goes a long way to successful survival
    and banditry.


    "Meats! And Fish!" Ceryph the wannabe Chaos Mage interrupted.

    "We can't be picky during times of need. The rivers and sea nearby are sources of fish.
    The forests are teeming with game, and the plains have livestock.
    Kind Selene has provided us Pumpkin and Apple pies, but they are luxuries for now.

    We should trade them for larger quantities of provisions."


    Objective
    First 5 players to place any 1 shipment of Meat from the choices below
    into the Public Chest of Crash Site situated at NW corner of Brittany Estates.

    Description

    With the meat stock settled and the airship in relative stability, Pikegirl decided that it was time to bring the numerous crafting tables and storage boxes

    down from the ship's storage to ground level for easier access.

    "The meats need to be cooked and salted well, so let's set up a working kitchen area and a basic campsite.
    " Autumn added.

    Pikegirl nodded, happy that things were going smoothly in this aspect, but silently worried that there were still no signs of Ihuma,
    Kohei, Booshi or Xilver anywhere.

    They h
    ave not returned after leaving the Estates a few days back to search for the meat supply, and the labor shortage could prove problematic.

    Objective

    1st 8 Players to PM Pikegirl or Autumn Willow in game to assist in
    the moving and placement of a Crafting table or Chest.
    (Alternatively, PM them in forums to plan a meeting time)

    Scene: Autumn Willow


    Description

    Soylent Green -Flash Quest 1st Triple Quester- is in a fix!

    He's an honest miner working out of Graff Mines, and an ever helpful presence to the Bandits whenever he gets to pass by the Estates.

    But ever since aggressive Kobolds invaded the once-peaceful levels of the Mines, things have changed.

    The retired miser-bag former owners, Renton and Marlene Graff, are putting unrealistic demands on their workforce; making them find random heirloom jewelry inside or harvesting Mystic Gems at the cost of their safety.

    Soylent wants out, but Renton refuses to budge. He points to the tattered contract they agreed on Novian moons ago, and insists that he lives the life that they have forced on him.

    The contract states clearly-

    "LAW OF THE PEON: AN EMPLOYEE SHALL BE BOUND TO GRAFF INDUSTRIES AND BE LIABLE FOR ALL INDIVIDUAL CONDUCT
    UNLESS PROOF OF BEING AN INTEGRAL PART OF A LARGER ORGANIZATION IS SHOWN."


    Soylent is stuck on the other side of the Vauban, cold and miserable.

    Will anyone be able to help him?

    Objective

    1st 5 players to achieve these-

    Contact Pikegirl, Autumn Willow or Ceryph in game, alerting them to situation.

    Devise a plan to help Soylent Green.

    Go Graff Mines to free him.

    If successful, lead Soylent through the Vauban Pass.

    Scene: Autumn Willow


    Description

    Bob knew what was coming when Pikegirl approached him in the morning. His mind was in a whirl.

    "Thanks Bob for your loyal service, but four taxfree vendors are really too much for us to cope with at the moment..."

    "Thanks Bob but we'll have to let you go as taxfree vendors are shooting up in price at the marketplace..."

    "Thanks Bob for holding all these items for us but..."

    Pikegirl pinched him hard, snapping Bob out of his thoughts. She grinned and handed over a stack of folded paper and books.

    "Bobby! You've been chosen to become our Flash Quest Support Vendor. CONGRATS!
    You will have your own exclusive spot at the front of the site, so please work on your stamina and endurance against the elements."


    Bob was stunned. He, a BLoB head vendor for once?! Chris and the others would be so jealous of him.
    But there was a big reason why Bob never rose to the top of his line...


    Objective

    1st 10 players to help construct a part of Blue Stall Awning, bringing us
    Blue Dye, 20 Wooden Boards or 10 Bolts of Cloth

    Ihuma sits on his ornate chair in a pretty Town Lot, preening into the mirror, and admires himself in full Bone Armor.


    "I can be myself here. This Owl town accepts me for what I am."

    He thinks for a moment and renounces himself...

    "Obsidian Chips, Obsidian Chips... God, I love the randomness and luck!", Reuge cheered.

    Description

    Tasked to find meat for the Crash Site, Booshi, Kohei and Xilver headed south towards their old hideout in Celestis, attempting to check on whatever they had left there after hastily departing weeks ago.

    While waiting for Eastreach Gap to load up, Kohei and Xilver lost connection to the ever-wonky server and were unable to return. Booshi struggled with the circumstances of his lost comrades, but opted to grimly march on towards his destination.

    A couple of days passed and he saw a familiar sight.

    The huge lake surrounding Celestis and the red boat that will take him across the waters to the town. Though tired,
    Booshi smiled broadly. He was home.

    He wondered about the specialty Hat and Clothing business left behind at the Tree Tavern, the availability of meats, and if there was a Recall scroll to return himself to the Crash Site swiftly after his job is done...

    "They commit arson just for a place to stay!", hollered another.

    "In Owl's Head, I overheard Pikegirl once maimed a little child cos she pointed at her ugly mug and called her Frightgirl!", people were heard whispering.

    "They deserve to die.", a stern voice spoke out from the back of the meeting room.

    Nicos Quaffi, flanked by two cronies, had announced his arrival in most dramatic of fashion.

    "By way of the age old tradition. Falling to their demise at the foot of our Estates' high carved cliffs!"

    "A DEATH FOR A DEATH. SIMPLE AND FAIR."

    He showed a couple of pictures of her corpse on the ground, and gestured to an odd-looking skull placed on a wooden table to the side. Its jawbone looked crooked, as if it was showing a slight sneer.

    On the other side of Novia at her favorite hunting ground of the Twin Foothills, Pikegirl decided on her next move.

    She'll have to make her way back into the Brittany area unnoticed, and help Autumn and Booshi secure the Crash Site.

    It is suicidal to go back like that. But is there a better plan?

    Objective
    1st 5 Players to contact Pikegirl.
    Help her come up with a plan to return to Brittany Estates.
    Escort her back to the Crash Site unnoticed.

    Reward/s
    1 CotO (Crown of the Obsidian)

    Oooh, looking forward to this. Go Pikegirl... btw your signature states "Proud Officer" instead of "Glorious Leader" . Don't be modest.

    UPDATE!

    Fire In The Hull (Part 1)
    was completed but over participated by about 40 buckets of water!

    No fret Novians!

    Due to the overwhelming response, I have decided to extend Rewards and roleplay with all the others who took the time to come over and participate in the scene.

    If you are one of them, I will add you to my friends list in game and we can work the whole experience out.

    Thanks for showing =Flash Quest= so much love and support, proving that SotA has the most awesome player community around!

    P/S: Keep your eyes peeled for the next instalment in the series!

    I'll be darned if I can find you in the SE corner of Brittany Estates. :confused:

    Fun stuff though, hope I do!

    EDIT: Ok I found this post:

    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...ob-crash-site-of-many-plundered-things.59433/

    From those excellent visual clues I was able to find the crash site and sell an item to one of your vendors. FYI though, the crash site is most definitely not in the SE corner of Brittany Estates (it's actually closest to the NW corner, according to my compass).

    Now I just have to figure out how to PM you in game! Good learning, I'm pretty new. :)

    Northwest according to compass you say? Changing it in the description then. You've just saved many a lost Novians looking to find the elusive site.

    The directional sensors on the airship must have gone wonky after the crash I'll bet.

    Since you have completed the Quest, let's meet up in game later to do a short roleplay of the results of your action, and pass you the reward as well!

    Glad to see you're having fun and discovering new stuff in =Flash Quest=!

    Forwarded from Active Thread:

    Super big thanks to @Myrcello !

    He donated Scene and Cosmetic items to help development of =Flash Quest= and agreed to provide further support in future.

    The support from the community for Launch Week is so cool, with some players volunteering their housing locations for new Quest scenes, while others offer help in the form of manpower or logistics.

    Me, Autumn and Cyreph will work hard to provide high quality quest content, and hope the word of dynamic hybrid story questing will spread in the weeks and months to come.

    Hail o/

    There is still room for a new avatar? I'm not sure which one is the first quest, Meat-ing Ground?

    I added you ingame Pikegirl and Autumn.

    This is the template for a Quest that is in the process of being released. When you see something like this, it means the Crier will be shouting out a brand new Quest pretty soon...

    I've been following your Flash Quest topics, but I guess I've been a little confused how to join in also. I figured the only way to join was get in right after a new quest was posted, but I would like to play too.
