Episode 8

Davinia: Welcome to Questgiver! Krudge recently informed me that we've received some letters complaining about the scoring. "It's not fair" they write "you always score my favorite lowest!", "I think you're too mean to Krudge!"   Well, too bad. I don't make this show for you! I make it for the Unseen Audience! I didn't even know we could receive the post. So stop sending me letters. I don't like it. Don't come for me, little "fans". I did not send for you. Unlike Krudge. Who is late... again. I swear that imp will be late to his own summoning if it ever happens.

(Krudge enters excitedly)

Krudge: Big news! Davinia! Huge news! Oops, Sorry, I forgot how you feel about the word "huge".  Ya know, because people always use it to describe how tall you are?

Davinia: Yes, Krudge. Get to the point. What's the news? Are you finally being summoned? Will I be free of you at last?

Krudge: Don't worry, my Dame. I'm not going anywhere. Just like that fungus in the basement. Anyway, I was going to be on time for the show, but then I found the most mesmerizingly beautiful button in my junk drawer and I just stared at it for...probably hours. I've completely missed all of my prep for the show.

Davinia: (*sigh*) Just announce the Loot Quest category, please.

Krudge: Right. On with the show! Tonight's Loot Quest category is:

Loot

The most intimidating mount

Endeavor

Break the curse

Roll a d6 to select a cursed item from the list below and attempt to break the curse using any means necessary. Contestants may attempt to break the curse once per round. Fewest number of attempts to successfully break the curse wins. Reality check = d10

  1. A haunted doll named Kaiden who moves things so you stub your toe once a day
  2. A book for creating demon appliances known as The Necronomitron. Reading from its pages summons something evil...
  3. A mirror that only shows the clown version of anything it reflects. Stare long enough and the clown may become part of you.
  4. A puzzle box that when opened incorrectly causes a permanent case of "The Yips."
  5. A painting of a crying unicorn that occasionally floods the homes it is ankept in
  6. An earring that causes the wearer to frequently misplace small items and cannot be removed without magic

Jaunt

Build a powerful weapon for the Questgiver.

Build a powerful weapon using only the items provided. You have 10 attempts. Most deadly weapon wins. Your time starts now.

GM Note: There is no correct or obvious answer to this quest. As a result a real world time limit may be appropriate when asking for submissions from players. I recommend 15-20 minutes.

Sudden

In Krudge's Burrow
Stack the Stones

Stack the stones until they are equal with Krudge's height. Once stacked, the stones must stay standing for one additional round. Fewest number of attempts to successfully stack the stones wins.
