(*WIP*) Quest Ideas (Anti Magic)

Potential Quests:

• Encounter the former Court Mage that disappeared the night the queen died and discovering the truth (not that I know that myself at this point)
  
• Finding the lost brother of the queen to bring him back and let him claim the open seat on the council
• Working with the only survivor from the time the Artifact first activated to uncover clues about the original purpose of the Artifact(s)
• (Minor Quest) Driving Mages out of their territory

Former Court Mage:

Lost Brother of the Queen:

• Quest can be triggered randomly when not in Anti-Magic territory (but very close to it), but has higher chances of triggering with a positive reputation with the Faction
• The Brother of the Queen (BotQ as placeholder name) is a powerful Druid (Healer variant), first encounter might be helping him in a fight, but he's strong enough that he doesn't really need the help unless it's a late-game encounter
• During the first encounter he won't interact much with the player, only saying: "Appreciate the help, even if it wasn't necessary against small-fry like this. I'd love to stay and chat, but there's a certain well-meaning and nonetheless very persistent and annoying group of people I really don't want to run in right now, so see ya later~"
• Shortly after he leaves, a group of Knights (later revealed to be the Royal Knights) will appear and ask for direction
  • If you tell the truth, the next (bonus) encounter will be with the Knights
  • If you lie, the next encounter will be with the BotQ
• Later encounters will progressively get closer to the center of the Anti-Magic territory, but the 2nd and/or 3rd meeting could still be outside of the territory
  
• Bonus encounter with the Knights (Lore-heavy):
  • (Maybe a combat encounter to support the Knights, still unclear) 
    
  • they will tell the player about a bit about the Tragedy of the Queen's Death
  • but mostly about the the chaos afterwards, when they were reeling from the sudden loss and the Country descended into Anarchy
  • They'll explain who they're searching for and why
• Next encounter with the BotQ:
  • He recognizes the Player Party, and will invite them to sit with him (bonfire most likely, maybe Tavern)
    • If you had the Bonus Encounter,

Which Quest is suited as Main Quest?

• Finding the brother of the queen, ties into its history well

How do the quests influence the faction?

Former Court Mage:

Lost Brother of the Queen:

• After the second encounter of the quest, members of the faction can be encountered a lot more often outside their territory, but uncharacteristically they'll try not to pick fight with mages and in extreme cases might even cooperate with them
• Upon completion of the quest:
  • the Council will have one more member (probably affects only lore?)
  • The Royal Knights will come out of retirement (Faction has a lot more High-Level Units)
  • The attitude towards mages is less hostile, no more "Driving out Mages" Quests, will be changed to "Take care of Mage-Bandits" (name needs to be work-shopped)
    
  • Mages can now appear as mercenaries (very rarely) to provide support to the Faction

How do the quests influence the Game? (Gameplay)

Former Court Mage:

Lost Brother of the Queen:

• After the second encounter, reputation with the Faction will rise a bit every node as long as the quest isn't somehow aborted
  
• Upon completion of the quest:
  • Unlock the Druid Class
  • Unlock Gremory Class (Mage+Healer), when Main Quest of Magic Faction is also completed
