    Today marks the 2nd anniversary of the Welcome Quest! On June 29, 2014 at noon marked the beginning of a monthly Welcome Quest. The quest officially kicked off in Release 7. Twenty-four months later we are still thinking up new ways in presenting the Welcome Quest.

    It was created from a simple posting on these forums to help all Novians to bring awareness to their Player Ran Towns in existing NPC towns. Among the first included: Valemark (Paxlair), Northshore (Dara Brae), and The Brave Coast (Vengeance and Beran's Reach). We extended the quest to Player Owned Towns when they became available.

    The Welcome Quest has evolved over time:
    - Visit multiple towns
    - In depth single town exploration
    - Overland map only edition that covers an entire region
    - Unique quests and mini-events like - a trial of a Novian citizen, race around a maze, Farmers Market, crafting demonstrations, PVP demonstrations, and more.
    - And more that I am forgetting.


    I want to THANK many people for the success of the Welcome Quest.

    Thank you to Everyone who attended them during the last two years.

    Thank you to Everyone who posted their support in the first thread and devoted time to making this a reality by helping - https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/forum/index.php?threads/player-ran-towns-welcome-quest-idea.11835/

    Thank you to @Winfield for your help and support with the timing, logistics, and quest ideas. Your quests in putting two groups "against each other" made for wonderful times.

    Thank you to @Violation Clauth for the great idea of the unique Welcome Quest items and their meanings, asking the Portalarium Dev team to create those items, and testing a PVP town in the second Welcome Quest. Plus your support and helping with the first Welcome Quest and quest ideas.

    Thank you to @Duke Vallas [BEAR] for your support and helping with the first Welcome Quest and quest ideas.


    Thank you to The Portalarium Dev team for helping by creating the special Welcome Quest items and their overall support by visiting many of these quests in the past two years.

    Thank you to All of the town owners who showed their support by hosting a Welcome Quest and helping out. This one is for many, many groups and guilds that put a lot of work to showcase their wonderful towns and quest ideas.

    Thank you to The citizens of Paxlair, The Beran's Reach, Vengeance, and Dara Brae towns for hosting the first few quests.



    All of the Welcome Quests are documented here http://sotawiki.net/sota/Welcome_quest and will continue to be documented.



    We will continue to come up with more ideas to keep this fresh and fun.


    Here is to the next two years or longer! *raises glass*

    Sorry I've been a bit slow. A massive thank you Duke Gregoir for making all of this happen. You deserve the praise mate, it wouldn't be the same without your direction. :)
