Ragnarok XXI Quest
(title TBA)
o Parties consist of 8-10 members, all with a race and class. These must be
determined beforehand; a sheet will need to be submitted to Sirilay before the
Sunday of Ragnarok XXI (said sheet will be made available later).
o There are no requirements for the number of classes per party, but note that
without some classes, the quest will be that much more difficult. It’s
recommended you have at least 1 of every class in your party.
o The quest consists of several events throughout the week, ranging from battles ot
investigations to interactions or reconaissance missions. Each quest event is not
mandatory beyond the opening revel, but note that, like the classes, the fewer the
attendees, the more difficult of a time you’ll have.
o As with all Dagorhir events, honor is of the utmost importance. Take your hits.
Don’t lie if you’re a paladin. Know your abilities and when you can or can’t use
them. Don’t try to bribe or weasel solutions or clues from the other parties. The
heralds will be allowed to give reminders and such, but staying in character will
make the quest better for all.
o Extraneous role-playing is highly encouraged. If your ranger abhors organized
society, s/he will stay away from cities. If your rogue prefers the quiet life, s/he
might only talk when absolutely necessary. Bring a group standard if you have
one. Talk in an accent. Make up a backstory.
o Each party will have a herald. Heralds will volunteer on their own and be matched
up preferrably with a party not from their own realm. Parties made of members
from several different realms are also acceptable. As always, the herald’s
decisions are final.
o Targets of traps are determined when trap is first discovered. For example, the
party’s rogue opens a chest and sees a piece of paper saying, “Trap.” All party
members are affected as they are positioned at that point in time. There are no
restrictions on backing away from area before the paper is discovered. If trap is
not discovered, herald notifies party of its effects if/once it is triggered.
