[WIP] Monk Starter Quest
Posted: 05 Jul 2019, 17:10
I was thinking that this might be a good addition for the Hercules server. My idea is that there would be a bald NPC in an orange robe called The Monk or just Monk located somewhere in either Tulimshar or Argeas, as he'd have to be easily accessible for new players.
When you talk to him, he would tell you that he'd come from a far off monastery to save people's souls from the corruptive powers of magic and evil. He would then inform you that his plan is to teach people about monk-hood and the holy (or something else) powers of light and goodness. Then, he would ask if you were interested in learning from him.
If you say yes, he would take out the Book (need name for this) and then lead you through an oath that you would stand true to the teachings of the Book and stand up for those in need. After that, he would shave your head and give you a copy of the Book. He would then tell you that to continue your training, you must prove yourself. He informs you that you must bring him [X number and type of items] and do as much good among the villagers as you can.
You must then gather these items and complete some other quests where you perform acts of kindness (like rescuing the girl's father from the sewer or gather claws to pull spikes out of the elf girl's feet). When you've done all of this, you return to the Monk with the items. He is impressed by all of your good deeds and begins to train you. It is tiring, but at the end you feel an enlightenment and calm that you have never felt before. Then you gain some XP and the Unarmed Fighting Skill (This would also need to be created).
At a later level, you could return to the Monk who would give you directions to the monastery where quests for unarmed fighter equipment could be located.
