Title: [Quest] Rapidash Rampage
Post by: DayStar on January 24, 2010, 12:08:00 PM
I'll start by saying that I have placed a name in this thread http://pokemon-universe.com/index.php/topic,207.0.html (name of the cave)
Okay so now with the quest;

The Where
There is a cave somewhere, (The Team Decides) where there is a woman named Sayer, of whom is never seen but is rumoured to live in the cave (a gaurdian of sorts), therefore being named "Sayer's Pass"

The Who
Sayer is a woman of 20-30 years old who favours in battle with her famous Rapidash, along with an Arcanine and a Ninetails (can be changed).

The What
There is a pokecentre outside of Sayer's Pass, inside the pokecentre is a ruin freak who explains that there is a Rapidash (and 3 Ponytas) inside that are rampaging and you need to defeat them to stop harm for the public. You are then given permission to enter the cave - whilst inside you find the 3 Ponytas in rooms and defeat them whilst the Rapidash keeps fleeing to the next room, in the last room, you team up with Sayer to finally snuff it out (beyond this room is the Priarie of which they came) upon defeating you speak to the Ruin Freak and get your reward!

The Reward
1. Money
2. A hold item (The Team Decides)
3. (Whatever, I'm not good with rewards...)

Hmmm, I like the idea overall but I think that you need to adapt it more so it work in an MMORPG. Not really sure how but it would be kind of crazy if there was this woman running out of the cave every time a person went nearby...

I agree with Declan_23. There are certain elements in this "quest" which are not possible in a MMO like:
- Having a massive earthquake
- Woman running out of a cave when a trainer passes by
- "when the geizer erupted it opened a pathway to the Priarie"

Sorry, I am really unfamiliar with mmo's
Hmmm, how about these changes;

Okay, so is this better or worse ???

you could still make the prarie unaccessable to those who have not completed the quest. For instance you could be given a key as reward for completing the quest that opens the gate into the prarie (or something to that effect). Other wise I think it's a great idea  8)

Me thinks it's good too.

Your link leads to nowhere...
Perhaps you can name the quest; Rapidash Rampage :D

What about... when you talk about the woman, you go towards the cave in question. You look for Sayer and can't find her. Upon getting out, a ruin maniac enters, blocking your way., saying he has heard of rumours about this cave. After talking to him, the earthquake is in the cave itself, and you hear a cry, presumably that of Sayer. Then, you see the Rapidash coming towards you. It stops, and then runs in the opposite direction. Meanwhile, the ruin maniac fled. You decide to follow the Rapidash to get to the bottom of this mystery and continue as stated previously.

This way, there won't be quakes noticeable from the outside of the cave, but only to those already in the quest.

Is that okay, or... too much?

It's okay, I was just trying to expand a little :)

After all, it's your quest. Don't feel bad for not wanting to add anything else :D

How about this. you can start the quest by talking to a special NPC (sayer, ruin maniac etc.) and they say that the rapidash is on the lose. what you need to do is find pieces of rapidashes leash by fighting many ponyta in said cavern. the item pieces could be a special item that cannot be discarded, or traded. there would be a 5-10% chance of finding one of these items on a ponyta. once you have all the pieces to the rapidash leash. 3,4,5 w/e you must go and defeat the rapidash and when you do attache the leash and lead it back to Special NPC for this quest.    i hope this would make the quest a litlle longer...

One day when your pleasantly close to the cave there is a massive earthquake,


It would be kinda cool if there was an area in PU that was susceptible to EarthQuakes. Possibly by a rampaging Poke's presence or just the random shifting of tectonic plates.

Nothing big or damaging, just an occassional screen shake every once in a while to give the appearance.

Sorry DayStar.. thats about as far as I got in reading quest proposal...  The first sentence hooked me :P

well, the thing is, i could probably write a (minimum) of a 2 page story on that, but as it is your idea not mine, i feel it needs to have enough information, and things that you can do (considering this is for an MMO)

it does not need to be in the long way i normally write, and it can even be in point form, i just want more than just an idea
yeah, i know im being difficult and it is hard to explain, but i will tell you if you have something that really impresses me

in short, this is your idea, not mine, so it needs to be made by you, not me

i am still on the fence about this one

Okay so I really can't expand it any further... But here is a summary;

Is this okay?
To be Honest I don't overly car about how it turns out as long as it follows my fundemental things, I mean you do have the final say anyway...
Thanks dearly for taking interest  ;)
