Empyrean Quests!
Quests will be arranged by level of difficulty. As a Zero you will not have access to any quests beyond beginner activities but as you grow, the possibilities will become broader and broader. A good way to look at the type of things you’ll be doing is to look at what jobs the various Stages perform for the city – from relatively simple at a low stage to complex and/or crucial at stage Three. All quests will be personalized but will prescribe to a certain general form so that both the DMs and the players will have an idea of what to expect.
Throughout quests, you may have to craft supplies, talk to certain individuals, travel places, look for objects and perhaps even battle.

Rules
1) Quests MUST be logged in the Empyrean’s journal, regardless of whether or not you complete a step with a journal entry or an IM RP as needed. Failure to post logs will put the quest on hold and no further prompts will be made until logs are posted. (All quest responses are to only be posted in the journal).
2) Do not start a quest without the official opening prompt. Anyone who does so will be punished.
3) Every quest will have a reward but the amount will vary. DMs have final say in any and all loot that is assigned. Do not argue.
4) There is no set time frame to complete Quests.
5) Only one Quest may be embarked on at any time. You must complete one before starting another.
6) Post the Quest Forms in this thread. A prompt will appear in the Empyrean's journal once your quest has been set up.
Details:
There are seven levels of Quests.
* - Stage Zero (Class related quests)
** - Stage One
*** - Stage One
**** - Stage Two
***** - Stage Two
****** - Stage Three
******* - Stage Three; restricted
Restricted Quests are quests only open to Stage Threes and will often be custom crafted to suit the Empyrean. Usually prerequisites will be required and the Quest itself limited to certain Classes and/or jobs.
Types
There are three types of Quests: Hunting, Gathering, and Crafting. Each involves aspects of everything an Empyrean learns as a Zero.
Hunting – Hunt and kill or catch something whether it be a monster, lost pet, spy, or traitor
Gathering – Grow, gather, or prepare items for use inside or outside of the city such as botanical supplies, maintaining druidic spells, or gathering Husks
Crafting – Make anything from a spell to a familiar like a hybrid or a golem
Misc – Anything that does not fit into the above categories such as Outsider Encounters and putting Dreaming Pool prophecies into play
Rewards
Rewards will be based on the quest itself as well as the results of that quest. Periodically, choices must be made and depending on those choices, the reward will be different. Most will have a monetary reward as well as a special portion to the reward.
