/qst/ - Quests


This is an adventure game using a pair of Lego sets as the basis for the scenario. You, the player, post commands for our protagonist, along with “dice+1d6” in the options field. In turn, I will carry out your commands and post images and narration of what ensues.

Your goal is to break into Ragana’s Magic Shadow Castle and rescue the dragon queen’s egg. The first part of this quest can be found here: >>2608381

The previous Elves quest, Emily Jones and the Quest for Playability, can be found here: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive.html?tags=Emily%20Jones. The other quests I’ve run, Funtron and Fungeon Crawl, are here: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive.html?tags=Fun%20with%20Lego. I keep the Twitter account @LegSlemt updated when a new thread goes up.

Since the previous thread is still up, I’ll begin right where we left off.

Speaking of the catapult, you've been wanting to fire it since the very first moment you arrived here, and now's the perfect chance! Ragana won't know what hit her, though you don't actually know what's going to hit her either, since there's no ammunition for the catapult anywhere in sight.

Fortunately, you know just where to find some. You scamper up to Duskfang's room, where all of Nightpaw's pilfered belongings are lying around. This stuff will definitely come in handy.

For your first creation, you load the mysterious gilded gemstone into the crossbow in place of the Essence of Studshooter. The gem looks magical, but you have no idea what it actually does. You bet it would hurt a lot if you hit someone in the face with it, though.

Your second creation you dub the Heartbreaker. It consists of the key with the heart-shaped crystal mounted on top of it. This crystal probably has some magical power too, but you're not especially concerned with the specifics here either. As long as the heart doesn't actually break, it's probably fine.

With your new weapons in hand, you haul the rest of the junk outside to the catapult.

In order to test the range and accuracy of the catapult, you load the fish first. You doubt it'd do much damage even if you do manage to land a hit on Ragana, but its slapstick value would be immeasurable.

You take cover behind the stairs while Ragana rains magic missiles down on you.

SOPHIE: "4juniors, I could use some help here."

4JUNIORS: we think so too. this looks bad.

SOPHIE: "Is there anything you can do to stop her? Can your parrot go knock her staff out of her hand, or peck at her head a little?"

4JUNIORS: that is too big for us. we would die. the light is too much.

SOPHIE: "What about getting on top of the light and moving it? You did that before, right? If you move the light directly over Ragana, I'll get her to look into it. She'll be too stunned to stop me from grabbing the egg and running."

4JUNIORS: we moved the light when it was off. we could still do it now but that would be it. we would not be able to help you more after. any more would kill us. but yes. we can move the light.

SOPHIE: "Are you sure?"

4JUNIORS: we are sure. junior helps junior.

SOPHIE: "Then let's do it. Once I'm in position on top of the main tower, point the light straight at Ragana."

My original plan was to gather food, have Ragana do the dirty work of hatching the egg, and then use the Summon Dragon Spell from the book.
At which point all we had to do was leave.

But no, Ragana had to battle.

And Ragana, she’s grown more and more obsessive; more sour, more bitter—“

SOPHIE: “—even more umami?”

NIGHTPAW: “What?”

SOPHIE: “Never mind; just something I read. Keep going.”

NIGHTPAW: “And I don’t know where it ends, for any of us. You’re right that this whole dragon scheme has gotten out of control; if she keeps going, it’ll only get worse for her, but Ragana won’t back down. It doesn’t matter what I tell her; I can’t change her mind.”

It feels like a lifetime ago that you departed from there, but after voyaging to heaven and hell and back again, it seems you've at last come to the final leg of your journey: the return home.

Status Report: I apologize for changing the schedule on such short notice, but the conclusion will not be ready tonight. I have now finished writing the script, but I still need some time to divide it into posts and then take pictures. It looks like it could require more of them than I anticipated, and we're close to the image limit, so if any image posts could be saved until afterwards, that'd be a big help. Sorry again for the delay, and thank you for playing.

SOPHIE: “Well, that's kind of an even longer story, but that part of it all started because I couldn’t find any stairs…”

EMILY: “Oh, not this again...”

And so Sophie Jones and the Quest for Playability comes to a close. One last time, thank you all for playing!

I'd be happy to answer any questions about the quest now, and if anyone is interested, I could also recap the Easter eggs scattered through the quest, like LQ does with his quests.

Please do!

This quest was fantastic, and I loved every second of it!

Except the part where the Archon died... that part I loved in a way that hurt.

Why did we turn the light on?
>>
>>2643116
The plan was to get Ragana to look into the light and then hit her while she wasn't paying attention.

The 4juniors were supposed to stay on the far side of the light where it wouldn't hurt them.
>>
>>2643119
I know, I made that plan, but I still feel bad.
>>
>>2643142
It's not your fault.

We all rolled a ton of 1s.

ANNOTATIONS, PART ONE

>>2608411
Emily's epithets are loosely based on the first two waves of Elves sets, which involved a quest for some magical keys and some shadow magic shenanigans from Ragana. When I first decided to run this quest several months ago, Emily was going to be the protagonist again and this would have been a direct take on the second wave of sets. Since Sophie ended up as the protagonist, however, whatever encounters Emily previously had with Ragana will have to be left to the imagination (or, if you prefer, the enormous pile of animated shorts on the Lego website).

>>2609087
This is the first good look at the hourglass piece that Nightpaw was guarding. Initially, there were three main artifacts necessary to hatch the egg: Lumia’s dragon-themed trapper keeper from her teenage years (which eventually became Ashenscales’ grimoire), the Cloak of Coziness, and the Hourglass of Impatience (which would have accelerated the hatching of the egg once the other conditions were met). Of course, the hourglass was never interacted with, and it eventually fell off the Table along with the rest of Ragana’s castle.

>>2609053
If you look really closely, you can actually see the grimoire inside the cell here.

>>2610601
The Hylic Plane (The Table) is the setting for the Quests for Playability. In Ancient Greek, “hyle” means “wood”, so "the Hylic Plane" could be read as “The Flat Wooden Surface”, which it is. However, in philosophy hyle also can mean physical matter in general, so the Hylic Plane can also be thought of as “The Material World”.

Also pictured is Ragana’s bed. It was never used, but it contains a secret drawer with a bar of chocolate and a letter from an unknown sender.

>>2613000
TL: “Witch’s Brew”, theoretically, but I don't actually know any French.
>>
ANNOTATIONS PART TWO

>>2617415
In Heartlake City, as in the real world, ancient mythology is a rich trove of inspiration for YA fantasy authors. Sophie learned the name Malacrythe from the film adaptation of a YA novel based on the medieval legend handed down as The Saga of the Lustrous Lance: Sepulcher of Fabrication.

>>2617476
Lego has a long history of not including stairs, walls, and other critical architectural features in their playsets, so residents of the Hylic Plane must behave as though the implied features were actually there. A lack of physical stairs was responsible for about half of the plot of the last QfP too.

>>2618304
Continuing with the Ancient Greek references, Sophie’s encounter with the Light of Godt is loosely based on the Allegory of the Cave.

>>2618335
“Magic is here if you dare to believe” comes from the theme song that plays at the start of all the Elves webisodes, which I heard way too much of while trawling the website for inspiration.

>>2620371
Another unused play features are the front doors to the castle. Pushing on the walkway leading up to them opens both doors at once. Of course, by the end of the quest, Sophie had outgrown the need for doors.

>>2620384
The Encircled Sea here being ©.

>>2620438
The Light of Godt uses an LED bulb; it’s just the diffuser that makes it look warm.
>>
ANNOTATIONS PART THREE

>>2623527
The Legiend of the Chronocler makes its obligatory appearance in this quest, once again vaguely paralleling the narrative at hand. Its insertion into random books scattered across time and space is a great mystery.

>>2624843
Continuity error: the parrot that actually comes with the pirate ship is light green, not red.

>>2625925
Unused play feature: pulling down on the lever with the gem on it will lift the stained glass window, creating another doorway that Sophie wouldn’t have needed.

>>2626217
Barely visible here is the purple potion hidden underneath the stairs that lead up to the lava. It’s so well hidden that it never ended up playing any part in this quest.

Annotations for this thread coming later tonight.
>>
>>2643719
Any idea what that potion could have become?
>>
>>2643724
Most likely a bottle of Grape Fanta-flavored healing potion.
>>
ANNOTATIONS, PART FOUR

>>2627684
We never actually visit Ragana’s bathroom, but it’s full of items that might have been interesting to mess around with. Of particular note is a hand mirror made from a silver frying pan with a reflective sticker inside. With a lucky roll, perhaps it could have even been a magic mirror.

>>2627701
TL: “Vanish into shadows!”

>>2631766
Ken-sama from Fungeon Crawl, ever the animation connoisseur, joins the collage of anime-style Sophies from the Netflix Elves series (and one Emily). The magical girl sequence was completely unplanned, but ended up being retroactively foreshadowed anyway. It was a lot of fun to put together.

>>2631779
In most Gnostic cosmologies, the aeon Sophia is something along the lines of the divine spark of the soul that resides in humanity. She seeks to return to her divine origin, but is trapped by the demiurge, the tyrannical god who constructed the material world, and by the dreadful archons who serve him. It’s a very Lego-compatible mythos, and the archons of Leg Slemt are based on it directly. Through a lucky naming coincidence and an anon’s suggestion, Sophie ended up fitting into the Gnostic motif as well.

>>2631790
The opening of this sequence is taken straight out of Cardcaptor Sakura, one of the best-known mahou shoujo series. It even features a magical key.

>>2631803
The stairs here are an homage to the transformation sequence in Revolutionary Girl Utena, a mahou-shoujo-influenced series about (among other things) fairy-tale narratives, eggs that need hatching, and a girl who has a dubious relationship with a flight of stairs that may or may not actually exist.

ANNOTATIONS, PART FIVE (END)

>>2634012
Rounding out the string of anime homages is this sequence, based on the psychological interrogations toward the end of Evangelion. I actually had >>2634036 playing at one point while writing it.

>>2637987
In Aristophane’s play The Frogs, the protagonists venture down into the underworld, where they at one point encounter a chorus of frogs. The frogs’ refrain of “brekekekex, coax, coax” is adapted here, delivered by their Leg Slemt equivalents: a legion of training potties from Lego’s ill-conceived Scala line.

>>2638023
Outside of the prologue and the locations/powers of the three artifacts, this quest was almost entirely made up on the go. Some of the characters, like Cloudtail, didn’t even exist until they were first encountered. However, the 4juniors were a character I’d written the backstory for a while ago. I didn’t know whether anyone would try to summon an archon in this quest, but they were ready if needed. Of the characters I’ve written for these quests, I think they ended up among my favorites.

>>2638009
Buried beneath the flashy lights is a page from the fittingly titled novel Sophie’s World, where Sophie grapples with philosophy’s Big Question: Why is Lego the most ingenious toy in the world?
>>
>>2644138
This was absolutely marvelous, and I really hope to see another of your quests.
>>
>>2644374
I'd like to run a few more quests to wrap up the Quest for Playability storyline this summer. Based on the remaining Elves sets I have on hand, I believe there will be two more quests and then a grand finale, though plans could change depending on how the quests actually go. For sure, the next quest I run will be Rosalyn and the Quest for Playability. All the materials for that are ready; I just need to find a good time for it.
>>
>>2643710
>“Magic is here if you dare to believe” comes from the theme song that plays at the start of all the Elves webisodes, which I heard way too much of while trawling the website for inspiration.
I was wondering if you were an Elves fan beforehand, or if you crammed in a few quick study sessions for the game.
>>
>>2644703
I was getting impressions that you'd run something using galidor, however that'd work
>>
>>2645004
The latter for sure. I became a fan of the sets (if not the peripheral marketing) after running the first Elves quest, though, so I wanted to know a little more of Lego's official lore going into this one. Some backstory, like Ragana harboring a grudge due to her lack of fire magic, is lifted straight off the website. Other parts of the Lego canon, like Ragana learning shadow magic from the spirit of Noctura who lurks within an evil drinking fountain, I dropped. And other parts are made up entirely, like the celestial/abyssal magic and Lumia having anything to do with dragons.

>>2645352
We definitely haven't seen the last of Galidor.
>>
>>2644703
>>2646069
Absolutely can't wait
>>
>>2646069
Hype!
