Starting off

  • Select an option
  • (Non-quest dialogue) Let's see what you have.
  • (Non-quest dialogue) Any word from Old Grog?
  • Got any work that needs doing here?
    • Player: Got any work that needs doing here?
    • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Well, it just so happens that I'm looking for a rough, tough, piratical type for an adventure on the high seas!
    • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: And I'm happy to say...
    • If the player does not meet the requirements for Prying Times:
      • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: ... it isn't you!
      • You do not meet all of the requirements to start the Prying Times miniquest.
      • (End of dialogue)

      • Before starting this miniquest, be aware that your combat level is lower than the recommended level of 10.
      • (Continues below)
    • Start the Prying Times miniquest?
    • Yes.
      • Player: Great! So what do you need?
      • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Hoist your mast, [player name], because there's some pirate looty just begging to be uncovered in a far off land! Thanks to me, you could be one of the privileged few to get your hands on it!
      • Player: Looty? You mean treasure?
      • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Yarr!
      • Player: Well, I can't say no to a bit of treasure. What do I need to do?
      • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Shiver me timbers! There is a crate full of high value goods just sitting at the port of Sarim!
      • Player: Port Sarim? I thought you said far off land?
      • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Aye! The far off land of Sarim!
      • Player: Okay... but surely if this is pirate treasure, someone would have noticed... Port Sarim is a busy place.
      • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Luckily for us, a cunning Jolly Roger of a pirate has disguised it to look like a normal crate of cargo!
      • Player: Hang on... is this actually just a normal cargo delivery? You know there's a notice board on the docks for that sort of thing...
      • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Normal?! Normal?! What kind of scallywag are you? There's nothing normal about a valuable crate of precious plundered pirate looty!
      • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Besides, you've already said you'll do it, and pirates never go back on their word.
      • Player: I'm fairly certain they do, but fine. I'll go collect this crate for you.
      • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Me hearty goes out to you! Once you have the looty, just leave it with the port master here. Now, give me your log and I'll write out the details.
      • If the player doesn't have the log:
        • Player: I'm afraid I don't have it on me.
        • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Well, go get it sailor! Heave to!
        • (End of dialogue)
      • If the player has max port tasks taken:
        • You hand your log to Steve and he flicks through the pages. After a moment, he hands it back without writing anything in it.
        • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Bit of a problem, I'm afraid! It seems your log is already full! You should get some of this work done before you take on my critical pirate task!
        • (End of dialogue)
      • You hand your log to Steve and he updates it with details on his request.
      • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Now, get to it, sailor! Heave to and ballast your grog!
      • You have accepted the Pandemonium pirate looty delivery port task.
      • (End of dialogue)
    • No.
      • Player: Actually, I've changed my mind. Maybe another time.
      • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Shiver me timbers!
      • (End of dialogue)
  • (Non-quest dialogue) Could you tell me about the Pandemonium's one rule?
  • (Non-quest dialogue) Nothing, thanks.

    • Player: I get the feeling you're about to ask me to do something else...
    • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Aye! This is no ordinary crate, [player name]. This is a pirate crate! Only a special key can open it for us!
    • Player: But it is an ordinary crate, Steve. There was even a label on it addressed to you.
    • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: I hope you're not trying to call Squawking Steve Beanie a liar?! That crate is pirate looty, and anything suggesting otherwise is clearly a plot by my rival pirate captains!
    • Player: Right... So what's this special key then?
    • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: It is something very few can forge! I suspect we will require the help of a master scallywag smith!

    • You raise the crowbar hopefully.
    • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: Wait!
    • You lower the crowbar dejectedly.
    • Player: What's wrong?
    • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: An artifact[sic] of this power needs a test before we try it on our precious looty!
    • Player: ...
    • Player: Fine. What should I test it on?
    • 'Squawking' Steve Beanie: I noticed a crate of grog floating around by the north westmost[sic] island of the Pandemonium. Cast off your keel and sail your vessel over there.

    • Player: Why would I even want to do that? How do you even know it's drinkable?
