Competition #13

[Aeroblyctos]

I created that "Link Quest" name. It's a quest line that is in many chapters. I'm going to create some of these type of quests later. I have already one almost completed.

[Cuts]

arent the the clients someting like a link quest allready?

[Aeroblyctos]

Well... No they are not. A little perhaps, a little. They are just "rewards". Just a way to create some powerful items, like "Sargatanas" and some other items I have not yet created.

Strange Man

This quest is in Chapter Four. It's a "search and kill" quest.

- After killing the Chapter 4 Elite Boss, and going to the chapter' beginnig (where are the shops), in the bridge will apear a Strange-hooded guy (maybe an acolite model) and will stare Phodom. Phodom will imediately guard himself. There goes the dialog. M stands for "man" and P for "Phodom":
(m) - Hold easy, young one. You should not fear . . . me.
(p) - Who are you ?
(m) - Ohh this is a good question, which I can't answer. You won't understand.
(p) - . . .
(m) - You look a strong man. I may have a task for you. You will see me later. First we must test your . . . abilities.

At this moment the man will start disappearing. Phodom will say "... What this man want from me ? " and go away.


After this action being triggered, when Phodom reach the second bridge (the one that is broken). A huge "Black monster" (slime)will appear. Than play a animation, with some beautiful special effect, maybe Flame strike effect. The battle starts. The monster IS strong, not so strong as the elite, but will not be easy to defeat. Then the strange man  appear:
(m) – Very well, mister. You defeated this slime. Shame this is weak compared with what I want you to kill. Will you take my task?
Leather board appears with two choices. The first choice is: “I don’t know what will happen, but I take this task.” The second is: “No, I regret your offer.”
In case you do not accept the man says: “You are weaker than I thought. Pity. You have potential, Phodom.” And disappears. BEFORE saying “HOW DID HE KNOW HIS NAME!?” it’s a question to be "solved" with the other choice.
If you accept the task:
(m) – Great! I knew you are a strong man! The task I have is simple. Simple, but no easy. What I want you to do is : to kill a plant. A very rare and powerful plant. You will surely recognize it by its beautiful colors. But this plant is a man-eating plant, and no one in the world could ever kill it. The most powerful warriors tried to kill this plant, because legends say the flower of this plant can give man an eternal life. I found one of these in this region. What I want you to do is: kill it, and bring me a flower. I have a great reward for you. And remember, Phodom: Great warriors fought with this Creature. You may found treasures. Until your return.
SO … Upon searching in the region, you will find the legendary plant. It’s strong. God hard strong. Stronger than the elite (and, in the way the epic is, it’s the strongest creature in chapter 4…). It’s enormous, spawn “tree elementals” (no treants. Maybe treants, corrupted, to explain the corrupted treants in the swamp…). If you can successfully steal it in the middle of battle, you will obtain the Old Scythe :

AAAAfter defeating the Creature, from it’s corpse will drop a “Legendary flower”:
Legendary Flower
Description:
The flower of a powerful plant. It’s said that the man who carries it will live forever.
Get the flower and give it to the man (get near him with the flower):
(p) – Here’s your flower, mister.
(m) – Well you did it. For some reason, I was certain you could handle it. Why didn’t you get the flower ? You could live forever. You would never get old. You could be powerful and young for the rest of the ages.
(p) – Why would I want to live forever? I have no family, I have no life. All that I have is revenge.
(m)- Yes, Phodom. I know what you are an avenger. I know you could not live forever with your family haunting you. I will help in your vengeance. Get this. It’s a necklace. You will need it, I’m sure.
(p) – Wait … How you know my name, old man ?
(m)- Oh Phodom. You think I am just an old man. Hahahaha. You are a good man, phodom. Good luck.
[Man starts disappearing]
(p) – Hey ! Tell me ! Who are you ?
[You can’t see him, just “hear”]
(m) – Well, let’s say I’m someone who wants to help you. Farewell.
Quest ended: Reward – > 1 level, 300 gold, Strange-Man Necklace.
Strange- Man Necklace

[Aeroblyctos]

This quest indeed have some potential. Please here my thoughts and uptate your quest.

Here are my thoughts:

- This quest should acticate something else than Elite Boss because Epic Boss is activated after Elite Boss. For example after that Silver Set optional quest.
- You have made the beginning mysterious and interesting for the player.
- I think there should a little more dialog in the first cinematic.
- You should plan what kind of fight is this "Slime Fight". What abilities it have? Weaknesses? Etc.
- If there are two choices, both should be equal somehow. Now it is not. Either you are going to change the quest or you will remove the choice. I suggest not to remove the choice, because it always make the quest more interesting.
- Elite and Epic bosses are the strongest enemies currently and I won't change this. This means, the enemy won't be as strong as them. But still we can make it strong.
- The idea of endless age is good, but cliché. I think there should be like the item will give longer life time.
- The items are poorly made.
- The man who gives the quest is mysterious at the start, but also in the end. This is not good, there should be somekind of story behind this man. Why he wants this item? How he know Phodom? The story behind this man can be left open, but at least give something. No need to tell all the information in one big cinematic, instead you can make another little cinematic for example to chapter 5...

Well, I’m happy that you liked it = D
The points you mencioned, well… Yes I can remake the itens, and I do not give “the boss fighting” more focus, because I think it “wasn’t important”. But I can remake and repost it.
The way I did it, i can't realy make the two options going somehwere. the maximun i can make is let the option to the player change opnion and accept the task. Oterwhise, the quest ends = (
About the “strange man” he would be already a campaign’s carachter, but I really don’t know his name, or if him fits in the plot. In chapter 6 or 7, I think it’s 7, have a certain point where two “lights” have a conversation. He would be one of these two, but I didn’t know how to … explain this.
About the itens… well  I’m no good at making them, but will give it a try = D .

Oh ! And I already have a question. Have a way to do this : if you do this quest , a additional event will happen in chapter 5, and if not, it’s stay equal ? I was willing to put this man in the end of chapter 5 cinematic, in the top of a cliff, saying something like : “Very well Phodom. Now you know what you must do. I hope you do it right.” Or something like = P

EDIT: I am waiting your answer of these topics aero.. I've tried to change somethings, and in overall is better. when you repply I repost this quest.

The Cave/Yeti/Yeti's cave


This quest is in chapter 3. As chapter 3 has few quests,    I'll give it a try.
First, for this quest, you must have killed the spider boss and found the third son.
In the place where you found the third son and those mobs make a “trap”, in the bottom part will have a cave. This cave will act like the ogre one, teleporting you to a alternate place of the map. G stands for Galeoth ¬¬

(g) - Hmm... This is interesting. Although I have never been in these parts before, caves are very rare in the Ice Mountains. (He walks near the entrance, and go to the right side. Then he faces the cave.)
(g) – The shape of the entrance… its look like it has been cut. This means someone, or something, probably lives in there. I don't know if it's truly a good idea to enter.
Walking to the cave entrance will show the options (Enter the cave / Do not enter)
In case you don't enter you'll continue outside, but of course you can change your mind and enter later.
In case you enter the cave:

(g) – Interesting. In this cave have unfrozen rivers. Also, have some footprints in the ground. This may be a house of one monster, or many of the same kind.”
[When Galeoth see the first yet, maybe in the entrance.]
(g) – This is a Yeti. They are a rare vision. Maybe this is a yeti lair?

The cave has a series of corridors. They reach each other, making a kind of labyrinth. Strangely, inside the cave have a lot of waterfall and unfrozen rivers (moving water do not freeze, freeze? I do not know. Anyway), but won't have grass or something like, just a rock and ice ground. Inside it, have monster, the yetis.

They are highly aggressive and normally are in groups, at minimum 3. As you walk inside the cave, the altitude falls slowly. In the end of the cave is a big room. Cinematic:

(g) – This room is bigger than the others… What is that thing?

In the room have a big yeti. Behind him have a lot of treasures, in the majority gold coins and old weapons. (Why he have a treasure? I truly don't know. Maybe he likes old stuff. It's just to occupy space.) When he saws Galeoth, he emits a roar, and the room entrance get blocked by some rocks.
The fight starts. As this is a Yeti lair, and this is the big yet boss, he must have some abilities.

Big Yeti Boss (ridiculous name, in lack of better ones)
HP and MP: Not this powerful ¬¬
Abilities: Well he is huge and brave. He should have some abilities that uses his strength, and he can summon yeti paws. He can have roar, to increase the damage of his yetis. His also have a area stun, that causes damage. Galeoth is not a tanker boy, but if you have mastered his element, it will be easy to deal with his yetis. He also may have some kind of freeze spell, maybe freeze for 3 second, with a good cooldown.

Stealing the Yeti Boss will drop the King of the Hill Helmet. Defeating him will grant access to his “treasure” ( that consists of some gold coins and maybe some powerful potions), and 1 boss point.

King of the Hill Helmet
-Rare
Description:
A helmet with the same shape as the Nordic helmets, which prove courage and strength, and usually used by dwarfs. This seems to have belonged to a brave dwarf that may have encountered this Yeti in the Lunch time. Adds + 5 to all attributes, +3 armor. Also, having this equiped will create a command aura that adds +20% attack speed and 10% move speed. Using this item will cast Avatar NV 1.

After defeating him, a cinematic will play. Galeoth will remove using his extremely powerful dragon slayer powers (he is a master of ice, he can remove some ice rocks from a entrance.)

This is just a small quest, as chapter 3 do not have many. It can be used to make better use of the space, and give more monsters to fight. The cave place I put is not very good, because to get there have not blocking. maybe you can put the same stones that block the way at the west part of the same map.

[Aeroblyctos]

The way I did it, i can't realy make the two options going somehwere. the maximun i can make is let the option to the player change opnion and accept the task. Oterwhise, the quest ends = (

Then remove the whole dialog thing.

About the “strange man” he would be already a campaign’s carachter, but I really don’t know his name, or if him fits in the plot. In chapter 6 or 7, I think it’s 7, have a certain point where two “lights” have a conversation. He would be one of these two, but I didn’t know how to … explain this.

Well that won't fit. But I guess I could make this character to be another Death Knight.

About the itens… well  I’m no good at making them, but will give it a try = D .

Don't worry much about the items, I can do them. Just give me an idea and icon then it's fine. Icons you can find from www.hiveworkshop.com.

Oh ! And I already have a question. Have a way to do this : if you do this quest , a additional event will happen in chapter 5, and if not, it’s stay equal ? I was willing to put this man in the end of chapter 5 cinematic, in the top of a cliff, saying something like : “Very well Phodom. Now you know what you must do. I hope you do it right.” Or something like = P

That's possible. But, you just have moved the mystery to another chapter and it won't solve the problem we have. The story behind the man must be told in somewhere of the chapters. Also, all the characters in the campaign, everyone's story WILL BE TOLD. Perhaps not in the current, or in the next version. In the future versions, EVERYTHING WILL BE TOLD. Every character have own history and own motives.




About your another quest.



- You have made a great suggestion to make a cave just like Ogre Cave in chapter 1. This is very possible, but I have to make the cave then somehow different than other caves. Hmm. I should pick a good color and make doodads to be like that color, etc. Blue is too basic. What color you might have in your mind?
- The idea of the quest is pretty basic boring sh1t. But for this type of quest, it's understanding. But as this is a contest, I want some more. There should be also a story behind this all.
- Yeti? Tell me some models. Ahh, you mean the basic wc3 yeti?
- There are no dwarfs or elves in the campaign and won't be.
- Items are once again not so interesting but do not care. I will make the items so you don't need to do that job. Just give me fine names and icons.

[LucasMapurunga]

Then remove the whole dialog thing.

You are telling about the part "you accept my task" ?

Well that won't fit. But I guess I could make this character to be another Death Knight.

A death knight ? Oh this is a good idea ! If this storyline can be used, I could put him in the end of chapter five "morphing" in this guy. Another thing I was thinking, was something like this: This "strange man" would be tallon, and in the end of chapter 5, the player discovering he is a dragon or not, he would appear "morphing" in taloon form. Then, the mistery of this man would be kept, and in chapter 5 the player would understand it all. As seem in the campaign, taloon don't get pissed when Phodom tell the soldiers to kill him, so, he wouldn't mind making a short and explicative apparition in the end = D

Don't worry much about the items, I can do them. Just give me an idea and icon then it's fine. Icons you can find from www.hiveworkshop.com.

I will search good ones. Hive is great !

About the coloor, as the cave is warmer than outside, the ground can be a mix of short Grass, Stone, and ice. As the cave was cut, it should have a lot of rocks and these kind of things. Not support columns, because they are just Yetis. About the model, the “sasquatch” model from warcraft III would fit, but with “ice look”, like the frost windkins. The dwarf helmet was just a idea. It can be change to a helmet used by valorous warriors of Olivier. And I really have to search some icons. I changed a bit the first campaign. After I find good icons, I repost it

[Aeroblyctos]

You are telling about the part "you accept my task" ?

Yeah.

Hmm... Talloon doesn't know who Phodom is actually. He just thinks he's another Dragon Slayer until "X with the yellow text" tells that he's the one who "he" will "need". He doesn't care about Dragon Slayers, he watches the world with a bigger view. He's not interested in a few characters only. Talloon is one of the mightiest dragons in the Oelivert and is actually... Just hiding behind a huge curtain. He's the one who seeks the better world. The story of Talloon will be told in the last chapter and there you can see him also.  

So, it doesn't fit here.

However, Death Knight would be a good choice, because there are still many Death Knights left without any action. Now only few are used. Death Knights are humans, but manipulated. They doesn't anymore remember their previous life(before manipulation). They obey their masters, and their masters. They don't actually know who is their real master... Almost any story fits behind a Death Knight. Just one thing is common with them; they are incredible strong fighters.

You can make another revealing cinematic about him to chapter 5 or 7. In chapter 7 there will be seen some Death Knights, but player cannot fight against them however. Death Knights are incredible strong warriors, for example, chapter 8 Epic Boss is a Death Knight who is seen in previous chapters. But he's something more than just a Death Knight...



You should now update your quests. Don't edit the old posts, instead make a new post with your update. You are doing awesome work here.

Strange Man (remade)

This quest is in Chapter Four. It's a "search an kill" quest.

- After killing the Chapter 4 Elite Boss and killing these plants that give honor points, and going to the chapter' beginning (where are the shops), in the bridge will appear a Strange-hooded guy (maybe an acolyte model) and will stare at Phodom.  Phodom will immediately guard himself. There goes the dialog. M stands for "man" and P for "Phodom":
(m) - Hold easy, young one. You should not fear . . . me.
(p) - Who are you ?
(m) - Ooh this is a good question, which I can't answer. You won't understand.
(p) -  But … do you  want something  from me ?
(m) – In fact, I need something from you. But you seem worried.
(p) – Yes, I have a place to go. Someone is in debt with me, and he will pay, for bad.
(m) - Really? Hmm …You look a strong man. I may have a task for you. You will see me later. First we must test your . . . abilities.
At this moment the man will start disappearing. Phodom will say "... What this man want from me ? Its better not find him again and continue my way to the dragon inn.”

After this action is triggered, when Phodom reach the second bridge (the one that is broken). A huge "Black monster" (slime) will appear. Than play an animation, with some beautiful special effect, maybe Flame strike effect. The battle starts. The monster IS strong, not so strong as the elite, but will not be easy to defeat.
-Slime Boss:
-model: the war3 slime, I don’t remember the name, but it’s black and you used in the epic boss cave, the annoying ones who keep taking off your HP and mana
- HP and MP: Well, I make no Idea of current bosses HP and MP. So I'll focus in its abilities.
-Abilities: Like he is a slime, and lives in the swamp (or was invoked as a part of it) it may have some ambient characteristics. Getting near it will make the hero lose hit points, what is very bad for Phodom. Also, this monster can cast slow.  As usual, the fight happens inside the “green circle arena”. This monster has no focus on casting great abilities or movements, but as it is a big slime, it can spawn smaller ones as it loses hp.
 Then the strange man appears:
(m) – Very well, mister. You defeated this slime. Shame this is weak compared with what I want you to kill. Will you take my task?
[Leather board appears with two choices. The first choice is: “I don't know what will happen, but I take this task.” The second is: “No, I regret your offer.”
In case you do not accept the man says:
Very well. I will stay here if you change your mind.] REJECTED !
As Phodom is a good guy that support people out:
(p) – I must go to the Dragon Inn but… very well, I accept the task you want to give me.
(m)  – Great! I knew you are a strong man! The task I have is simple. Simple, but no easy. What I want you to do is : to kill a plant. A very rare and powerful plant. You will surely recognize it by its beautiful colors. But this plant is a man-eating plant, and no one in the world could ever kill it. The most powerful warriors tried to kill this plant, because legends say the flower of this plant contain the warrior's essence. A unique form of power that would make stronger even the most powerful fighter in the world.   I found one of these in this region. What I want you to do is: kill it, and bring me a flower. I have a great reward for you. And remember, Phodom: Great warriors fought with this Creature. You may found treasures. Until your return.
SO … Upon searching in the region, you will find the legendary plant. It's strong. God hard strong.
Da Big Plant:
-model: no idea at all…
-HP and MP: As said for the slime, I have no idea. But this is surely stronger than the slime.
-Abilities: It's enormous, spawn “tree elementals” (no treants. Maybe treants, corrupted, to explain the corrupted treants in the swamp…). It uses entangling roots, a powerful one, that silences the character also. You will be useless in time. But to be fair, this can only happen when you are very weak, almost dying, like a “fatality”. It will poison at every hit, and slow a bit movespeed also. When below 25% HP, this plant will enter in a “raged mode” where, it gains a great bonus to damage, but as it is dying, slow the attack speed.
If you can successfully steal it in the middle of battle, you will obtain the Spike Blade, and by stealing it a second time, the Venom Shield:

(m) – Well you did it. I was certain you could handle it.
(p) – But I'm curious. Why do you want the warrior's essence ?
(m) – Me? I don't need this flower. In fact, I could easily go there and get it, but you would have no fun, don't you think?
(p) - …. WHAT!?
(m)- Calm down. The true reason I wanted this flower was to give it to you.
(Plays acolyte Working/Gold Mine animation)
(m)- Here it is. I put the flower essence inside this gold necklace. It's very powerful, indeed. Take it. It's yours, Phodom.  With it, it will be easier to deal with the man you want.
(p) – Wait … How you know my name, old man?  And why are you giving me such a powerful thing?
(m)- Oh Phodom. You think I am just an old man. You are a good man. Good luck.

Also, enhances the damage of the carrier by 1x his primary attribute. If used, a powerful flow of energy will enter in the carrier body, making him stronger than a solid wall. For 4 seconds, all the physic damage taken will be ignored. 40 seconds cooldown.
NOTES: The paused way the man speaks its proposital. As it don't have voice acting, I used it to show as his was kind of… do not worrying or something like this. And I tried my best to do the items, but I really can't do good ones
Well Aero, the death knights thing would be great. As they will make an appearance in chapter 7 (crazy to see Beta version), I will add one to the plot. So, here it goes:
Assuming that, in chapter 7, Phodom,Fradz, Galeoth and the people will see these Death Guys, here it goes:
Chapter 7; the Death Knights are there. [I think they can speak, right?] One of them will look to Phodom and say:
(D.K)- Hello. We meet again, Phodom…
(p) – I have never seen you before!
(D.K) – Really? You can’t fell people’s presence? The Dragon Slayers are weaker than I thought. Let me show you…
[In this moment, the D.K just morphs into the acolyte.]
(D.K) – Remember me now ?
(p) – You!? The guy in the Great Marsh!
(D.K) – Yes, Phodom. You killed that big plant! Thanks. I needed that essence for my master. He told me to give you a bit of it. Hope I have helped you…
[ I don’t know how the plot goes, so I’ll stop the cinematic here, and let it continue from where it should.]

[Aeroblyctos]

Instead of give suggestions I will change something in your quest now.

- After killing the Chapter 4 Elite Boss and killing these plants that give honor points, and going to the chapter' beginning (where are the shops), in the bridge will appear a Strange-hooded guy (maybe an acolyte model) and will stare at Phodom.  Phodom will immediately guard himself. There goes the dialog. M stands for "man" and P for "Phodom":

This quest will trigger, when the Silver Quest whatever is finished.

After this action is triggered, when Phodom reach the second bridge (the one that is broken). A huge "Black monster" (slime) will appear. Than play an animation, with some beautiful special effect, maybe Flame strike effect. The battle starts. The monster IS strong, not so strong as the elite, but will not be easy to defeat.

Slime have to be changed, meaning the model have to changed. If it is already used, and especially in the same chapter, it have to changed. Either you are going to take another model from basic wc3 list, or you are going to find a model from Hive. Why does a summon have to be slime? There are already enough of slime type of monsters in this chapter. Use your imagination.

Then the strange man appears:
(m) – Very well, mister. You defeated this slime. Shame this is weak compared with what I want you to kill. Will you take my task?

This doesn't sound right. There have to be more dialog before this sentence. There have to be a reason for Phodom to accept this quest. He won't do anything if there is no good explanation. It can a lie or whatever you think. You have to make some deep to this story.

[Leather board appears with two choices. The first choice is: “I don't know what will happen, but I take this task.” The second is: “No, I regret your offer.”
In case you do not accept the man says:
Very well. I will stay here if you change your mind.] REJECTED !

Waste of time, just forget the whole leaderboard/dialog thing.




Still no story behind the man. Shame on you!

Still no story behind the man. Shame on you!

It's difficult, because I'm trying to make him fit in a future plot, but I really make no idea of what you happen in future

About the slime model... yes, a summon must be a nice monster. If its already used in the same chapter, no good to use it again.

This doesn't sound right. There have to be more dialog before this sentence. There have to be a reason for Phodom to accept this quest. He won't do anything if there is no good explanation. It can a lie or whatever you think. You have to make some deep to this story.

Will put my mind to work. So... what you want me to do is... make a history for Phodom take the quest ? Yes, he accepts out of a sudden sounds unnatural, more because he is in a hurry, seeking the black hooded man. So, look at this example:
(m) – You defeated this (current idea) Monstrous Wolf ! Shame this is weak… very weak compared with what I need to kill to obtain the Legendary Flower… Would you get this flower for me ?
(p)- Why do you want this flower?
(m)- My wife got a rare disease. The only way to cure is getting a strong substance that can cure almost everything… But the only way to get this, is fighting with a powerful being… And I’m just to weak to defeat it… I can’t save my wife.
(p)- (My family had all died and I could make nothing to save them. I won’t let the same happen with this man.)
(p)- All right, I accept the task your have
(m)- Great! I knew you ......
The future dialogs won’t be changed, as the man already says that he could get the flower  himself, but hide the fact that he is a D.K, showed in chapter 7.
Well, the man has a background story now. I don’t know if it’s good.

--- > And the "rejected" means I have already put aside the leader boad thing.
EDIT: Can't found a good model for the ex-slime monster. So, the summon model could be a Spirit Wolf, but with a darker RGB, almost black. So, the carachteristcs would be completely changed:
Monstruos Wolf
HP and Mp: …
Abilities: He is a powerful summon to test Phodom’s strength. So, this wolf won’t have minions: it doesn’t fit in a giant wolf. He has a powerful damage and slow attack rate, but have a ability that increases his attack speed, but not his movespeed. Another point, the wolf isn’t huge, but it’s taller than Phodom with avatar. He have a “special”, that he stops attacking. After 3 seconds (time to player realize something is wrong) he launches a powerful shockwave in front of him.
EDIT2: Instead of using the Silver Ser as a trigger, why don't use the ultimate sword ? To get this, you must fight with that "arthas-like", who is a kind of miniboss, and must buy the sword in the merchant. This way, is a little bit more difficult to get the quest.

just realized a good history to the yeti’s cave! Here it is:
The Spirit and the helmet
This quest is triggered when the third son is found.
When Galeoth reach a certain part of the map (mid part or something, but it shouldn’t be in the middle of the way), a cinematic will start. A man will be standing(model: Villager 2). Then he turns to look at Galeoth. Then:
(G) – (A man in the icy mountains. This is a rare sight. No one come here nowadays. It’s strange… he is wearing normal clothes… and I don’t sense magic in him.)
(G) – Excuse me, sir. Are you all right?
(M) – (…)
(G) – How are you resisting this cold!? You must be freezing there!
(M) – Freeze… stupid old man! I feel no cold! I feel nothing !
Then the man disappears (With a flashing blue effect, like dispel magic effect). Then, around your position, appears ice elements just like yours, but they are weaker (like element nv1), and have no abilities.
When Galeoth continue his journey, this man will randomly appear in someplace. Like the last time, when Galeoth come, the man will look directly at him.
(M) – YOU AGAIN! WHY DON’T YOU JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!
(the elements appear, but do nothing)
(M) -  Nor in death can a man find… peace?
(G) – Who are you ?
(M) – I’m a spirit of an explorer of icy mountains. I have come here, trying to find a helmet… but this helmet  was guarded by some monsters… they have slaughtered me… But I cannot rest until I can have a look on this armor… I won’t rest!
(G)   (This is only a troubled spirit… maybe I can help him and earn something)
(G) – Tell me more of this armor you were searching.
(M) – It’s an ancient helmet, from the War. It’s mystical and very powerful. I’ve heard from some army guys that this was lost in a battle near in the icy mountains. After some research, I discovered the exact location of it. But something has found it first. A yeti, a big one. He lives in a cave, with other of its kind. They have hid in there after the War.
(G) – Hmmm… if this is as strong as you say it is, I will free this helmet from the yeti. I will keep it for myself, of course, but you can look to it before resting forever.
(M) – If you do this, I will finally rest! This yeti keeps it locked into a magic cage, and keeps the key with him. You will surely recognize him. The cave where they live is in the northeast. Good luck.
As said in the last post, this cave is blocked by some rocks, south from the third son sword. I have some ideas to the cave. When reaching the cave entrance und so weit
(g) - Hmm... This is interesting. Although I have never been in these parts before, caves are very rare in the Ice Mountains. (He walks near the entrance, and go to the right side. Then he faces the cave). Probably the Yetis have made this… or they were lucky to find a natural shelter…
The cave is huge, but not as dark as the ogre one. As said before, it has unfrozen rivers and waterfalls, and it has a very natural look. The ground is covered by rocks and ice, and in some parts, short grass. The cave is mostly white and blue, white some green. The yetis aren’t guarding the corridors. There are a lot of rooms, and the yetis are around the fire, or in rustic houses, and they are always in group.
The big yeti or Yeti Chieftain (less bad name… I think) is in a big room. It has some objects, as the goblins, this yeti like shiny things. He has a considerable treasure, mostly compounded of gold coins and old weapons. In the middle of the treasures, have a big cage, with a blue aura.
Cinematic:
When the yeti realizes a man is looking at him, he emits a roar. The room entrance gets blocked by some ice rocks.  Galeoth looks to the entrance, than look back to the yeti.
(G) – It’s a big one. I have no other choice than slay this beast.
The fight starts. The cinematic end with the yeti emitting another roar and 2 yetis coming from a hole in the wall.
Yeti Chieftain
Model: Sasquatch, from wc3, but with an “ice-look”, as the frost windkins. Same for the others. But this one is 3 times bigger than the others.
HP and MP: Not this powerful ¬¬
Abilities: Well he is huge and brave. He should have some abilities that uses his strength, and he can summon yeti paws. He can have roar, to increase the damage of his yetis. His also have an area stun, which causes damage. Galeoth is not a tanker boy, but if you have mastered his element, it will be easy to deal with his yetis. He also may have some kind of freeze spell, maybe freeze for 3 second, with a good cooldown. Also, some sort of command aura should be given, and the roar he gives should diminish the armor and/or attack from enemies.

Killing the Yeti chieftain will drop the Key and 1 boss point.
Key
Model: Warcraft 3 key. Yellow one.
The key to the magic cage holding the helmet.
 Defeating him will grant access to his “treasure” (that consists of some gold coins and maybe some powerful potions).
Getting near the cage with the key will open the cage. In the ground, the helmet.
Master Helmet, the legendary

Description:
I’m bad doing itens, but..
This is an old memory from the war against the dragons. So much blood and lives spent for the freedom of others. Maybe this event will never be erased from the history books of Oliviert and other places. This helmet in particular belonged to a fifth rank dragon slayer. He died in glory, fighting alone against a dragon, while the wounded soldiers ran away from the dragon. He and the dragon died this day, but his sacrifice would never be forgotten. His helmet was his strongest weapon. ?? (No idea of bonuses, seriously. Maybe this helmet could give some anti-attack, life bonus, or something like, or the sacrifice he made could have somehow added to the helmet magic…)
After defeating him, a cinematic will play. Galeoth will remove using his extremely powerful dragon slayer powers (he is a master of ice; he can remove some ice rocks from an entrance.)
The guy will be waiting you in the cave entrance. When he sees Galeoth with the helmet:
(M) – It’s so … beautiful. The way I have imagined all this years. Thank you. Now I can go to the other world.
(He starts “dying”. Also the elements he have summoned appear around him and fade together with their master)
Quest ended. Reward: 1 honor point.
Notes: it could look strange, why an explorer would have elements? Well, as he is dead, and could not find peace, he could get some “””powers””” as in stories, when a person die full of resentment and turns itself in a bad monster
