Quests & Downtime
Quests are posted in Discord. Downtime is what you do between them. Both feed the same economy: XP, Veil Marks, and gold.
Every Quest Post Includes
- Quest name and flavor from Warden Holt or an NPC
- DM running the session
- Date and time in Discord local time
- Rank required
- Corruption level (Veiled, Shrouded, Forsaken)
- Quest type (Dungeon Crawl, Exploration, Puzzle, RP, Combat, Mixed)
- Estimated length
- Maximum party size
- Sign-up instructions
Sign-Up Rules
DMs post quests. Players comment to sign up. First come, first served.
- Only one character signed up for one quest at a time
- Multiple characters can be on different quests simultaneously
- Quests need minimum 3, maximum 6 players
- A quest stays open until the minimum is reached — no expiry
- No-show without notice — your spot opens immediately
Shroud Corruption
| Tier | Name | Exhaustion |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Veiled | 0 per session |
| 2 | Shrouded | 1 per session |
| 3 | Forsaken | 2 per session |
A long rest inside Veil's End removes 1 exhaustion. Sister Aldene can remove more for gold, scaled by rank. At level 4, declare your corruption. At level 5, DC 14 Con save to pass through. At level 6, the Shroud takes you.
