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 talk about Stendhal, please join #arianne and ask. This channel is really friendly and helpful.


  • It all starts with an idea
  • Those ideas are usually discussed' and refined in #arianne
  • After the concept of the quest is finished, the NPC dialog needs to be written
  • Only then the computer program which implements the quest is written.
  • The quest should be done on test-server and the chat log recorded
  • An automatic test is created based on the chat log.
