Storytelling Mode
Reframing works. “Doing laundry” is boring — “cleaning your armor before the next raid” isn't. Every quest already gives you the room to write it that way: a title, a free-text description for the lore or the context, and as many checklist Objectives as the job actually needs.
Difficulty is the dial that matters — Easy, Medium, Hard, or Epic — and it sets the XP directly: Epic pays double Medium, Hard pays 1.5×. No cap on how many quests you can have running at once, on either plan.
Make It Return
Some tasks don't end — they cycle. Set a quest to repeat and completing the current occurrence rolls the due date forward on its own. Nothing piles up, nothing gets recreated by hand. “Pay Rent,” “Weekly Review,” “Prepare Tax Documents” — the obligations that come back on a calendar, not a streak.
The repeat cadence itself is a Pro feature. The quest stays free either way — and if you're already running a recurring quest, it keeps running no matter what your plan does next.
What's Next: Quest Chains
Right now, every quest stands on its own. Quest Chains — sequencing several quests into one storyline, the same idea as Habit Links but for quests — are next on the build board. No ship date yet; this page updates the moment that changes.
MainQuest's separate Marketplace (also in development) is for trading items and cosmetics — a different system, not quest templates. There's no quest-sharing feature planned beyond Quest Chains itself.
FAQ
Can I write a description or backstory for a quest?
Yes — every quest has a free-text description field. Use it for context, a note to yourself, or full lore — it's yours to fill however you like.
Can I set custom XP or gold rewards?
Not directly. XP comes from the quest's Difficulty — Easy, Medium, Hard, or Epic — each with its own fixed multiplier. Difficulty is your reward dial; there's no separate custom number to type in.
Can a quest have subtasks?
Yes. Add Objectives to any quest and check each one off individually as you make progress — the quest itself only completes when you say it's done.
Can a quest repeat automatically?
Yes. Set it to Weekly, Monthly, or Yearly and it rolls its due date forward the moment you complete the current occurrence. The cadence itself is a Pro feature; the quest stays free either way.
Can I chain multiple quests together or share them with the community?
Not yet. Quest Chains are in development, with no ship date announced. There's no quest-template sharing or marketplace planned for quests.
The Quest Creator Is Already Live
Every quest you write already carries a title, a story, real steps, and a Difficulty that decides its worth.
