| Lets say your storyline takes place centuries after Rheima's. This here is an idea based on something big that happens in Rheima. Full information on it too xP
Mythology: The great fortress of Castelya once stood on an island that has long since been sunk. The fortress had been torn apart by a race called the Dragonarii, who have long since perished from history. Castelya remains at the heart of the lost island and is said to hav been discovered only recently. The rumors state the fortress contains many rare treasures and a hidden life form that no one has ever known about.
Story Idea Sidequest unless you want it to be different lol. It is given to the main character during a scene in say a tavern or wherever a drunkard might be.
Name of Questgiver: Sairyn (Get it....sunken island Sairyn....<. What the quest giver is: Former Soldier
Description of quest : "There ya see....here be a treasure beyond all belief.....lost to da sea." The Drunkard points to a map where the region is surrounded by open sea. "There was once an island there....I know cuz I lived there, fought there....and well almost died there too. But where this map mistakes is that there still be an island there.....just they ain't seein it." Drunkard starts speeking jibberish as a small dot on the map starts to glow. "No it ain't magic if that be what you're thinkin. Thas where the treasure be! No one been to das island before.....not since it fell...." Player character asks about what he was talking about. "The fortress of ol' Castelya o'course....It be able to stand against all da force in the world mate....but not them.....those were far stronger.....those beasts called Dragonarii.....haven't heard bout them anymore though.....they seem ta be gofers or goers....er whatever ya callin em nowadays. You see, I served that fortress for many years....and I *cough* never saw anything like the night it fell....I hid it then.....we had no other option....there underneath the great hero statues.....broken by now m'assumin.....but the treasure still be there fer the map still glows." Player character asks why the treasure is important. "It be important cuz its alive mate.....that treasure be one of those uh....angel things ya know.....the pointy ears....an white fur....." Player character is clueless.... "Ah forget it....jus help me out kay.....you bring back that treasure....and I give you power you ain't heard of b'fore now." Player character thinks for a few minutes and finally decides to go on the journey because it isn't far and the reward sounds good enough. "Ah that be good fer ya.....Now enough of the pirate language.....Listen, I need you to bring it back in one piece or it's entirely useless.....Understand....it's an egg.....do NOT under any circumstances try to open the damn thing or you'll wind up dead before it. I need it brought back safely, so you'll have to fight off any of those things if there are any left there. The island is no longer sunken as I've watched it rise from the depths myself." Player character is still shocked about the pirate illusion and is speechless because of it. "Did you even hear me?! Listen, this is a big deal....either you're in or I can do you over now....and finish what I started....." Player character nods hesitantly... "Good, now take this route here....you'll find the statues in the courtyard of Castelya Fortress. Maybe if you're lucky there'll be other goods you can loot freely. I just need my companion back.....Please for the sake of living.....bring her back safely!" Player character agrees, takes the map, and begins the journey.
Objective : To recover the mysterious egg from the ruined fortress of Castelya.
Does this quest have different endings(optional): There can be two ways of ending it, by attampting to do what the drunkard said not to just thinking he was dillusional and hatch the egg, triggering a boss battle that gives the reward after, or you can go back to the drunkard for him to hatch it and get the reward that way.
Will this quest cause a branch of quests(optional): Optional, it could trigger a series of other treasure hunting type side quests from Sairyn to uncover more of the mysterious island and it's history.
Award(Optional): The player will gain a new ally called a Tigyerhimm. It's a tiger like creature that has two tails instead of one. Being female, this creature is very gentle and brave although fiercely protects its master.
Can you get a secret character through this quest: Yes, you can obtain the Tigyerhimm which can be named whatever the player desires. My default name for it will be Zeina of course xD (I'll have to add a bio for it if you like this idea) | |

| I'll get the bio up later today.
Zeina would be the last remaining one. Her race fought alongside the humans at Castelya against the Dragonarii. She was only saved because Sairyn put her into a sleep state where she didn't age and hid the egg.
Tigyerhimm appeared like tigers, but can talk without speaking using a nuero-path network linked to all those around it's minds so that's cool lol. They also have two tails for a reason, and that's because the second tail can use magic abilities or whatever it is in your game like that lol and the first one is the physical attack.
You'd have to make a new armor style for it though, unless you're gonna make Zeina like a summon for the heroes.
Sairyn only played the pirate act to illude the truth about who he really was. He was a general in the Alliance forces, and the entire group was massacred at Castelya. He however, deserted the force out of massive fear and the will to live. So he sealed Zeina into sleep where she has lost her memories because of it. That's why he asked for the egg to be brought back to him so he can restore them for her. (This would also make her stronger because she'd remember everything they did).
Maybe make it a series of side quests, where eventually Sairyn goes with the main character and ends up horribly injured and dies that way so the hero has to take care of Zeina for him as his last wish thus granting the new ally. Since they're a very loyal race, they are disgraced with the idea of leaving their master behind without a new one. So it would make sense to kill off Sairyn first lol. | |

| Heheh yeah it'd be epic for sure! Zeina is pretty epic as a character itself even if it's just a support one since it's unique and original it keeps the idea of having a human personality inside a beast but angelic body. It should also have some kinda very light aura around its neck and feet and maybe on the tip of the tails, was thinking light yellow or blue for that since it's a light side character.
Sairyn describes her as "angelic" lets face it....he loved a tiger thingy xP He lost his lover Narii, so moved to the next best thing lmao xD | |

| Well he's a soldier but has more or less retired since his army lost the battle lol. He's the last survivor of them and so can't really be considered a soldier anymore. He's skilled with a sword and long shield or dual wielding swords. He only acts like the pirate because people got into calling him one since he came from the sea washed up onto the shore with what would appear to be a treasure map. So you can see where that comes in heheh. He figured that by going with the nickname he could easily blend in without worry of being discovered by hostile Dragonarii or any other survivors. | |

| lol well how many pirates made much sense? Think Pirates of the Caribbean with Jack Sparrow xP how much of what he says can you actually understand during his random speaking moments lol.
That's where his pirate language comes from lol. But I did make it make better sense, just random sense lol. It also kinda sounds a bit western if you think about it and the Wild West lol or at least that's how Sairyn should sound xP a Western Pirate how funny xD | |
