Starting the quest

I'm not one for long talks, unless I'm discussing proper walrus wrestling form, so I'll keep this short. If you want to be somebody, you have to pick a job. You can do that at level 10. Your choices are Warrior, Magician, Bowman, Thief, and Pirate.

Perhaps that was a little TOO short. Fine. Talk to Dances with Balrog in Perion to become a Warrior, to Athena Pierce in Henesys to become a Bowman, to the Dark Lord in Kerning City to become a Thief, to Grendel the Really Old in Ellinia to become a Magician, and to Kyrin in the Nautilus to become a Pirate.

Clear enough for you? I hope you paid attention. That info is important. Talk to me again when you're ready to answer my questions.

Turning in the quest

Now then, I just told you this. What level do you have to be to take a job as a Warrior, Magician, Bowman, Thief, or Pirate?

Over 9000

Lv. A Million

Lv. 10

You got that one on muscle memory!

When I was your age, I knew I had the meaty mass of a Warrior, but sometimes a guy can't get a polar bear to fight him unless he puts a few arrows in its rump.

Where should you go to become a Bowman?

Perion

Henesys

Arrowland

Ellinia

Haha! Your ears are as mighty as my deltoids!

Reply to “Yes”

You've passed my test. Now it's time for you to decide which job (Warrior, Thief, Magician, Bowman, or Pirate) you want. Talk to me once you've made up your mind.

Additional replies

I already addressed this. You can become a Magician at Level 8. But I didn't ask about Magicians, did I?

Whoa, ambitious much? That's way too early to get your first job. Let me spoon-feed you: the answer is 10.

Perion's where the real muscle's at! It's a town of Warriors, like me.

If you're looking for somewhere to skulk around, bein' sneaky, go to Kerning City. There's a Thief named the Dark Lord there that'll teach you everything you know about... theify stuff.

With all the big trees to climb in Ellinia, you'd think there would be more tawny musclemen like myself swinging around... Mostly, you'll just find those smartypants Magicians.
