Levequests are requests made by the citizens of Lunatia and taken on by the Guild and made available to registered members of the Guild. These petitions fall under one of four categories and once the details are sorted the posting goes onto the job board for review. To accept a levequest one need only speak with the staff manning the counter beside the board, as the Guild keeps a record. They can also be asked about special conditions and payment associated with any specific leve.

Rewards will typically come in the form of Demichroma. The size of the reward is denoted by a dollar sign. There are small monetary rewards [$], moderate monetary rewards [$$], large monetary rewards [$$$], and rarest of all: the extra large monetary reward [$$$$]. Sometimes rewards will also have a bonus, and these bonuses will come in many forms from extra demichroma, to reputation boosts, to complimentary goods or services offered by businesses.

For either a small fee or some form of payment (favors, trades, etc.) PC's who either own a business or simply require assistance for particular tasks, errands, etc. are welcome to submit a petition for aide to the guild, but must offer some form of reward by way of incentive for whoever accepts. There is no set fee, so this can be handwaved OOC'ly. Ziva will try to work with those in need and we (the players) can discuss special circumstances if you're interested in using this as a way to generate CR. See the form below for more details.

Any rewards are members' alone to keep. The guild does NOT take a cut, though for any excessively gregarious members there is the option of donating kickbacks. These are treated as donations to help keep the Guild running smoothly. There's a wide variety of tasks available at any given time, though they range greatly in size and complexity. In the guild's starting months requests are likely to be smaller and simpler affairs, as the people of Lunatia learn to trust the Moonblessed, especially those signed on with the Guild. The leves are divided by category. Here's a simple breakdown.

TRADECRAFT • If you've a talent for creation there's an opportunity to make coin. These are more or less very specific commissions from the locals clamoring for goods crafted by the hands of those from other worlds. They may request something as simple as something practical or fashionable or they may request something more unique, such as artwork or a special dish. Supplies are not provided, but the Guild always ensures that the pay compensates for the resources spent fulfilling the request. Members may be given the opportunity to turn in more for a bonus reward.

FIELDCRAFT • For those who are better suited to seeking out nature's bounty (or the city's hidden treasures) these gathering leves may better suit. Crafters often need supplies, and seldom have the time or means to procure them on their own. That's where Guild members come in. These jobs will see members out in the wilds or even the various levels of the city searching for a variety of materials, from feathers from certain types of birds to precious ores, or maybe even something as mundane as discarded bottles or bottlecaps. It's not the most glamorous job out there but it's probably easy money. Members may be given the opportunity to turn in more for a bonus reward.

BATTLECRAFT • These jobs can range from escort missions to hunting for supplies, but they differ from tradecraft and fieldcraft leves in that there's a very high likelihood that combat will be required in some capacity to see their completion. They also differ from largescale leves in that they can be completed by a single member, so long as they've ample training and skill.

LARGESCALE • These jobs are reserved for parties of at least three, due to their complexity and dangers. They may require anything from clearing out dangerous infestations to hunting down wanted criminals for an additional bounty. They may be dangerous, but that's exactly why they pay more than the average levequest. Again, additional rewards may be available depending on the petitioner and their satisfaction of a job well done. The bare minimum for recommended party composition is as follows: One tank, one healer, and one damage dealer.

OOC: It's up to individual players to figure out how the leves will play out, how long they take, and so on. All that's asked in turn is that players avoid having characters do something that would be damning to the Guild's reputation. At the very least, please ask before plotting such things, and if told no please respect the decision. Please understand that at the end of the day the Guild is still a business run by player-characters, and such actions or poor performances would reflect back on them. Thank you!

Tools for the Trade | ♦ | Parties of 1-8: Unlimited
A local jeweler is in urgent need of new tools, and while they're at it they'd like to commission some backup's. It's rather straight forward, and while their jewelry isn't exactly what you'd call 24 karat calibur it IS unique! In addition to demichroma payment they've offered to craft a custom piece for every hand that lends a hand.

Rewards: Demichroma [$]
Bonus: One piece of custom jewelry (per member)

Uniformity Conformity | ♦♦ | Parties of 1-4: Unlimited
A local mining outfit is in desperate need of suitable attire for new employees, so naturally now is the perfect time for their local supplier to be preoccupied with another client's larger order. To the adventurer who can help them out there's the promise of demichroma as well as a possible bonus in the form of unique crystals, perfect for creating some unique looks (jewelry, clothing, purses, or other accessories). They'll need at least three sets of work boots, jumpers, and safety goggles.

Rewards: Demichroma [$]
Bonus: Decorative crystals and luminous agates

Passion for Fashion | ♦♦♦ | Unlimited
This is a unique job in that the client is not just one person, but a couple. This fashion conscious duo has taken an interest in the fashions of the Moonblessed and are looking for skilled artisans to replicate some of them, or natives of their own world to create unique looks in the same style as their homes. These clients are well known for being seen out and about around town on Level One, so seeing to their needs could prove to be very lucrative to the aspiring artist. A good word from them might mean more commissions down the line, that don't necessarily have to come through the middle-man of the Guild.

Rewards: Demichroma [$$]
Bonus: Word of Mouth/Reputation Boost

A Little Pizzazz | ♦♦♦♦♦ | Parties of 1-8: Unlimited
A local business owner is looking to bring their shop into the 31st Century. That means they need some updates, and as such the difficulty of this particular leve depends largely on how much you choose to take on. They can use everything from a new logo to new uniforms to remodeling the decor. The more provided the bigger the reward. It can be anything from a simple one person job to a team effort.

Rewards: Demichroma [$$$]
Bonus: Demichroma [$$] and a giftcard for 🌓100

Fun with Fungi | ♦♦♦ | Unlimited
Anybody who's anybody will tell you that when it comes to cuisine, truffles are in the top rung of opulent taste. Recently some establishments on Level Three have had the mind to try to get their hands on some of these ingredients to try and compete with the businesses on Level One. The problem? They lack the hands and resources to contend with the wildlife the same way that some of the upscale places can and do. That's where the Guild comes in. They've petitioned for a few able bodied adventurers to fetch the fungi themselves. For those willing to go above and beyond and really haul in a hefty supply the owners of these establishments want to express a little extra gratitude. See the bonus below for details.

Rewards: Demichroma [$$]
Bonus: Three complimentary dinners for two at the establishment in question

Birds of a Feather | ♦ | Unlimited
In a city as big and bustling, fashion varies as wildly as the inhabitants. The latest trend to sweep the city? FEATHERS. Inspired by some of the locals plumage- as well as some of the plumage sported by the recently affected Cordis Moonblessed -feathers have made their way into several fashion magazines and has local shops scrambling to make good on the trend while it lasts. Not just any ratty old feathers will do, however. The fuller the plumage, the more vibrant the colors, or the softer the down, the better.

Rewards: Demichroma [$]
Bonus: Demichroma [$]

Apples & Oranges | ♦♦ | Unlimited
Summer is fast approaching, and everyone who's ever lived in a hot climate knows what that means: LEMONADE is soon to be in high demand! Surprisingly, though, lemons are NOT what this petition is all about. Everyone is trying to put a unique spin on a classic drink in order to beat out the competition as well as the heat. To that end local businesses are petitioning their otherworldly visitors- the Moonblessed -to help them concoct the next big hit in Lunatia. This petition is a bit unique as it's open not only to those with the culinary magic touch, but anyone who can put forth good ideas. As a bonus, in addition to possibly having your creation (or recreation) named after you on the menu there's more. For those who are skilled in mixology, local bars are even willing to consider hiring on staff for those who prove to be particularly creatively minded. Be that as a bartender, chef, consultant, or server- hey, it beats going through the application and interview process, doesn't it?

Rewards: Demichroma [$], name credited on the menu
Bonus: Potential employment

Hostile Takeover | ♦♦♦ | Parties of 1-8: Unlimited
A petition for aide has come in from some of the local beekeepers. The invasion of the Viscosus Bees is doing more than spreading unbeelievable sticky honey all over the place, they've taken to threatening these prismal's very livelihoods! A band of adventurers is wanted to drive the large invaders off, but don't harm the regular honeybees or you'll have to contend with more than their stingers. Should too many of the beekeepers bees be harmed or driven off (and not healed or retrieved, for those with the abilities to do so) in the process, any reward will be forfeited.

Rewards: Demichroma [$$], one [1] jar of honey from the bee farm
Bonus: Four [4] jars of their signature flavored honey

Small Scale Request | ♦♦♦♦♦ | Parties of 1-8: Unlimited
Some local alchemists and apothecaries are interested in studying the properties of the scales found on the notorious Whitesnakes. They're looking for intrepid adventurers to collect as many as they can for study. Whether or not the scales prove to be worth anything doesn't matter, members who take on this quest will be rewarded either way.

Rewards: Demichroma [$$$]
Bonus: Demichroma [$]
