Quest Writing!

It's time to write what your quest is about here! We won't ask for every detail for every stage of the quest, but rather interesting points about it. You will have both story and gameplay questions. You should base your quest on the chosen prompt above!

The gameplay questions are the most important ones, so try to really blow us out of the water with those ones!

You may add your own characters or use existing ones. You don't have to give stats to mob encounters, and you don't have to add quest rewards, although you aren't prohibited from doing so.

If anything contains an unique mechanic (i.e. a custom boss spell), it would be better to explain what that mechanic is!
Select a prompt for your quest.

Extra Questions!

You will now answer a few questions related to Game Design! It's a really important element to consider when making content on the team.

The Role of Staff Members


TaleCraft may not be the biggest community, but it’s still home to many players. Our role is to ensure a positive and fair environment by enforcing the rules and handling any issues that arise. However, being a Helper isn't just about enforcing rules—we’re here to enhance the player experience, whether you're exploring the world, engaging in discussions, or seeking support.

Disagreements and disruptions happen, and it's our job to step in and maintain order while keeping things fair. We have the responsibility to uphold community standards without abusing our position.

Each Helper may focus on different tasks—some may assist with in-game concerns, while others help guide discussions or support players. Everyone contributes to making TaleCraft a great place to play.

Ultimately, our goal is to foster a welcoming and enjoyable community while maintaining fairness and respect.

Staff Rules


  1. Never abuse any commands, power or influence for personal gain, only to uphold the rules.
  2. Act without bias. Staff are community members too, and we have friends, but we will do our best to act objectively, even if one of our pals is in the hot seat.
  3. Do not break the rules of TaleCraft as stated above. We are not above our own rules.
  4. Act maturely, sensibly and maintain a sense of professionalism.

If a Staff member is not following this code of conduct please report them to one of the Managers. This report should come with evidence (your word is not enough, we're afraid) of said Staff member breaking the rules. However, if you are seen to be “baiting” a Staff member to get them wound up to make them say something offensive, you may find yourself in just as much trouble.

No Staff member is above the rules.

Having Said That...


Staff are people too, and people make mistakes. While we try to maintain the peace, things can go wrong. Fortunately, as a cohesive team, there have been no situations which we have been unable to overcome. To be able to maintain a good staff environment, you have to be able to respect other Staff members decisions. There really is no use arguing and shouting, if you really want results with our team, you need to speak calmly and cohesively to produce a logical response to your issue.

Staff are also players. They don't have to staff 24/7, they are allowed to actually play the game too sometimes! Though, staff will be asked to relieve their duties when inactive for a substantial amount of time. Final decision for this comes from the Management team.

Staff Selection Process


How we select staff is a mysterious question amongst the community, as the role of staff is seen as an honour. However, the process of how staff is selected is not public information.

We choose staff members based on various things, but they are never chosen out of favouritism. Just because one community member is promoted over another does not mean that said person “deserves it more”, they have just fulfilled the requirements to be promoted and are offered the position. There should be only congratulations at hand when someone is promoted, not anger that someone else was not.

If you wish to become staff - be yourself! The reason the selection process isn’t public information is so that we can remain organic, and not promote people who are “pretending” so they can get the promotion.


Back

Point of Contact


The Managers are easier to contact than an admin and has direct contact with them if necessary.

And that’s it everyone! I hope that this has cleared up any discrepancies between the staff and the community and this document may be updated from time to time.

Keep on having fun and respect the staff,
