Generate Your First Quest

Step 1: Describe your quest

In-game, run /qf create followed by a plain-language description:

› /qf create a quest where the player collects 5 glowing mushrooms for the witch Ysolde

You can describe it however feels natural. QuestFable understands context:

• NPC names (“the blacksmith Aldric”)
• Item names (“5 iron swords”)
• Locations (“at the village well”)
• Rewards (“reward 200 gold and experience”)

Step 2: Wait ~15 seconds

QuestFable generates the quest and shows you a preview in chat:

[QuestFable] ✅ Quest ready · preview:
─────────────────────────────────
Title: The Glowing Harvest
Giver: Witch Ysolde
Objective: Collect 5 Glowing Mushrooms
Reward: 150 XP, 200 coins
─────────────────────────────────
[QuestFable] Nothing has been written to your server yet.
[QuestFable] Run /qf deploy qf_glowing_harvest to publish.

Step 3: Review the preview

The preview shows you exactly what will be deployed: the quest title, giver NPC, objectives, and rewards. Nothing has been written to your server yet.

You can also view the full preview in the web panel with richer formatting.

Step 4: Deploy

› /qf deploy qf_glowing_harvest

Or click Deploy in the web panel. The Bridge plugin:

1. Writes the quest file to plugins/Quests/import/
2. Triggers a PikaMug hot-reload
3. Confirms the quest loaded successfully

[QuestFable] ✅ Quest qf_glowing_harvest deployed and live.
[QuestFable] Players can now accept it via /quests.

What counts toward your quota

One quest = one quota unit, deducted when the preview is confirmed (not when deployed). If QuestFable fails to generate a valid quest, your quota is not charged.

• First 2 regenerations of an undeployed quest are free.
• Deployment failure (Bridge reload error): quota is refunded automatically.

See Quotas and credits for full rules.
