Dungeons & Dragons: A New Quest

A story of adventure

In A New Quest, Katra and Vaer are striving to reunite Vaer’s soul with his body that was stolen by dark forces. During their journey, they reach Candlekeep, where Thesserai the Sage asks Katra and Vaer to aid him in locating his “Deck of Many Things”, hoping it’ll lead them closer to finding Vaer’s lost body. 

The deck is a mighty set of cards with the power to either stir conflict or prevent it. The deck stems from chaos magic (sounds super safe tbh) , and as it now has gone missing, it needs to be returned before it ends up in the wrong hands (or claws). 

Katra and Vaer accept the call to adventure, and thus, their perilous journey (and yours!) begins, meeting yetis, and dwarven hunters, recovering treasures, helping one-legged pirates, and discovering widespread conspiracies.

The class of a character

As in all Dungeons & Dragon games, classes are key when it comes to forging the perfect role and gameplay experience for you (I usually choose the coward, with the ability to wimp out).

There are four different classes to choose from: if you want to go all bulky and smash, smash, smash, then pick the barbarian. If you’re more about stealthy long-range attacks (read: safe distance) then choose the rogue. Or if you love casting magic missiles, then the wizard is for you. Finally, we have the stalwart paladin with the ability to heal and mend their allies. 

So, consider which class suits you best as you brave A New Quest (I’m going with rogue, so if I go hiding, I can always make the excuse of it being a "trait"). And because this is Dungeons & Dragons, you also get to choose your stats, which influence how good you are at various actions, like spell casting or stealthing.

A vast world

From Candlekeep to the Sword Coast and onwards to Icewind Dale and Caer Dineval, A New Quest takes you to many known locations within the Dungeons & Dragons world, some fraught with risk, some packed with rewards. 

But just as a world needs stunning views (yay!), it also must bear devious, ferocious foes (nay!). So, as you venture out into the world, you might encounter owlbears, wolves, rats, Bheur hags, Mind Flayers (now that can’t be good), and bosses that are sure to test your mettle.

Time to quest

This is not a journey without risk (which is why I am hiding in the keep instead), nor without rewards (hey, yeah, okay I might take a stab at this thing). So, roll the die and beg hope for a critical hit, as you, Katra, and Vaer leave the safety of Candlekeep and face the dangers that dwell outside the walls.
