Generating Quests
Quests can be picked from this list, rolled randomly from this list, or just made up.
First pick or roll for what's happening:
- Loot something important

- Kill a monster or monsters
- Discover an important secret
- Explore Farther, blaze a new trail, or find way back to safety
- Break a curse or end some magical effect
- Travel somewhere through a dangerous area
- Escape from a bad situation
Then pick or roll for a location :
- A Place the Characters have been before
- A new Place the Characters haven't been before
- Where the Characters happen to be now
- A Place where one of the Characters has a history
- A Place where the Characters aren't supposed to go
- A Place that was part of a past Quest
A Trivial Quest is just a single Encounter, a Standard Quest is 2-3 Encounters, a Serious Quest is 3-5 Encounters, and a Heroic Quest is 5 or more Encounters.
