Stendhal Quests

Sometimes people have a very good idea but don't contribute it because they are afraid that creating a quest is very difficult, that it may require a deep knowledge of computer programming. And other times people who know the ins and out of computer programming would like to code a quest but don't have a good idea.

This page wants to bring people with different skills together to create new and interesting quests. Starting from the very first rough idea to an implemented quest that is well tested and fun to play.

If you are unsure about something, got lost, or just want to talk about Stendhal, please join #arianne and ask. This channel is really friendly and helpful.


Skills Doc Description
Creativity ideas

It all starts with an idea

  1. There is an old and drunken soldier.
  2. There is an old soldier on duty. He wants a drink of beer but is not allowed to leave his post and therefore asks the player to buy one for him.
Stendhal existing

Refining and Discussing

Please join #arianne and talk about your ideas.

These questions may help to make up useful information:

  • What is the quest about?
  • How does it fit into the world?
  • Which NPCs should take part of the quest?
  • What should the reward be?
  • Can the quest be done only onces or repeatedly?
  • Are new items or monsters required?

In the end there should be a short characteristics sheet:

  • Title: Beer For Hayunn
  • Participants: Hayunn Naratha (the veteran warrior in Semos Village)
  • Steps:
    1. Hayunn asks you to buy a beer from Margaret.
    2. Margaret sells you a beer.
    3. Hayunn sees your beer, asks for it and then thanks you.
  • Reward: 50 XP, 20 gold coins, Karma: 10
  • Repetitions: None
  • Notes: The original idea was to have a drunken soldier on duty. This quest, however, is ideal to teach new players how to interact with NPCs and how to buy things. In order to be able to act as teacher he should only accept one beer.
