This is the first quest i have made now and i am wondering what you all think of it so far. This is probably all i will release of it to keep you guys guessing if you join the server i am working on. I have put the NPC's together as i am yet to decide where they can be in the server

Code:
 SwordOfTheGods Quest 
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 
Start NPC
[@main]
#IF
#say
Hello my friend. I see that you are not from\
these parts as you look to be more prosperous\
than any other here. You see, this area has\
been affected by a great evil. This Evil came about\
when the Sword Of The Gods was broken by some\
unknown force\

#IF

I have told you the tale of the Sword Of the Gods.\
Please, hurry and find the broken blade\
 
<I'm On It/@exit>

#IF
check [971] 1
#SAY
You have managed to get the sword!?! It may look good, but\
it is not very useful without being fused with the\
power of the stones. You are going to need to find the man who is\
capable of this fusion. The problem is that he does nothing but\
talk gibberish. Maybe seeing the sword can free him from\
this curse?
 
<Where could i find this man?/@where>
#act
break
 
[@where]
#say
The man has been sighted somewhere outside of the walls of this\
town. Beware as there is much evil lurking beyond these walls\
 
<Thank you for the warning./@exit>

[@more]
The Sword Of The Gods was the protector of this\
area. It held back a great evil that threatened\
all of the land. It was a blade thought to be\
forged by the Gods themselves and infused with\
three stones of power.
 
<More/@more2>
 
[@more2]
Each of these stones granted more power to the blade.\
I'm sure that if we could get the stones fused with\
the remains of the sword, we may have a weapon to combat\
anything that may threaten the lands. All we need is someone\
who is willing to get the stones for us. A champion of some sort.\
 
<I wish to be that champion/@accept>
<Your looking at the wrong person, sorry/@Decline>
 
[@decline]
Im sorry to hear that. We will just have to suffer until\
one who is strong enough to face this challenge comes along\
 
<Now wait just a minute.../@accept>
<Im sorry, forgive me/@exit>
 
[@accept]
#SAY
You'll do it? Ah Thank You! Thank You!\
Ahem...\
Anyway, first, you will need to find out where\
the remains of the sword are hidden.\
I once heared a rumour that a man from an "arena"\
had the sword, and was going to use it as a\
prize for a death match. Why don't you check\
it out?\

[@talk1]
Ahh. Thank you friend. I have been inflicted with some\
sort of curse that has plauged me since the destruction\
of that sword.
(He looks at the sword, as though mezmerised by it)
Maybe i can rebuild the sword, granting it new power.\
I am going to need some things though.You may have heared\
of them. The Stones Of Power...\
 
<Yes, I know of the stones. Do you know any more about them?/@info>
<Where can i find these stones?/@search>
 
[@info]
There are three stones of power that were created\
at the forge of the gods. Each stone required a sacrifice\
in order to obtain power. Three men accepted the fate, in\
order to drive back the evil. One man was a great Swordmaster.\
One of the best in the land. Another was a cleric, who could\
talk to the Gods themselves. The third man was an elementalist.\
He had the power to control many aspects of nature.
 
<More/@info2>
 
[@info2]
The stones were fused with the essences of the three men.\
These stones had a most tremendous power on their own, but\
combined, the power was unmatchable. These stones were\
used in the forging of the Sword Of The Gods. I was one\
of the men who helped make that sword. I can help to\
rebuild that sword, but you must find the stones of power.\
<What must i do?/@search>
[@search]
I ask for you to search for each of these stones. I only know\
about their locations through books i have studied during my\
madness. I can only hint to where the stone is, as that is all\
i know.
 
<I'm Game. Where first?/@warstone>
<I am going to have to think this over. I shall return/@exit>
 
[@warstone]
#say
I have found a book that tells of a man who found a stone that\
bestowed him with tremendous strength. The tale tells of him\
using the stone to help him get a Sword of fate by hitting\
the rock harder. i Know not what this means but maybe you\
could find out.\
 
<I shall see/@exit>
#act

[@taostone]
#Say
There are some old records that an old man near the home of the Tao's\
is the owner of the TaoStone. It is said that he is a very peaceful man\
but prefers to live in solitude. Go to see this man. Find out what he\
knows.
 
<I shall return with answers/@exit>
#act
set [977] 1
 
[@Wizstone]
#say
The WizStone is the most elusive stone of all. The only refernece to it\
is in this small passage i found in an old text. It states "The Stone is\
in your mind". To be honest, i have no clue what so ever about the meaning\
of this. mayby you could search out a person who knows more about Wizards\
and magic.
 
<I shall. I Hope to see you again soon/@exit>
#act
set [979] 1

What do you think then? I was hoping to add a more of a storyline to the King server in some areas. If the quest proves to be successful, i may write more long quests that have a story in them

Sounds pretty cool for you first quest. Noticed some errors in the code but everyone gets errors and you just gotta learn from them! :P

Good luck mate!

you need to put #IF's on all [@Wizstone] [@warrstone] etc
I could set 979 977 975 ON with the touch of a button.
