Blackened Iron Shield
|
1 |
Every item here is named by this realm's own item table, and each name is a link to that item's page.
The gossip a player reads first
An iron shield, blackened by the fire that raged through the inn, is affixed to the crumbling chimney, one of the few remaining parts of the structure that once made up the Shady Rest Inn.$b$bThe shield can be removed from the brick of the chimney.
Objectives
Bring the Blackened Iron Shield to Krog in Brackenwall Village.
When the items are handed over
What's that you have there, $n? Evidence from the remains of the Shady Rest Inn?
What the quest-giver says at the end
I grant that humans have strange decorating tastes, but would they use a plain iron shield to adorn their fireplace? Perhaps this shield was placed there by the ones who burned the inn.$b$bA warning? A threat?
This is the text the realm stores, written as stored. A vanilla quest writes a line break as “$B” and refers to its item counts as “%d”; the rules that turn those into a sentence belong to the game client, so the page keeps the codes rather than guessing at the prose.
Every row above is this realm's own quest row, read from its quest_template table.
A value the realm did not record is left out or written as none rather than filled in with a plausible number.
The figures labelled “stored id” — how the quest is completed, its type, and a reward spell — are keys into game
data this realm was never sent, so they are printed as stored and carry no invented meaning. The experience
figure is the base value the row holds: the amount a player is actually given depends on the character's level,
and that rule belongs to the game client.
