The Guide

The Guide is the first NPC that new adventurers encounter in DaggerQuest. Found standing near the tables at the farmstead, The Guide welcomes travelers to the world and warns them of the goblin threat to the north.

Interaction

Approach The Guide and interact when you are within range. The Guide speaks in sequence:

"Welcome, traveler. These lands grow ever more dangerous."

"Take what supplies you can from the tables and prepare yourself. The goblins to the north have grown bolder since the old watchtower fell, and their raiding parties strike without warning. You would do well to arm yourself before venturing too far from the safety of this farmstead."

Role

The Guide serves as the player's introduction to the world of DaggerQuest. Her dialog points new players toward the free equipment on the nearby tables (a Simple Shirt and Simple Pants) and warns them about the goblin enemies in the northern part of the farm.

While The Guide doesn't offer formal quests or a shop interface, her advice is sound. Players who heed her warning and gear up before heading north will have a much easier time with the early encounters.

Location

The Guide stands by the farmhouse in Glutton's Farmstead, close to the tables that hold starting gear. She wanders slowly around that spot, making her easy to find, and you can speak to her from a comfortable distance without having to stand on top of her.
