[ SIDE QUESTS ]

QUEST BOARD

► Mrs. Adelson’s lawn flamingos won't stop devouring pets and attacking the mailmen! It's becoming a real annoyance!

► While the local pet cemetery will NOT, in fact, raise your pet as some kind of evil monstrosity, if you visit it you will occasionally get the sensation of a cat rubbing against your leg or a dog licking your hand, despite no cat or dog being present. (BONUS: This is especially tricky when someone asks you to help retrieve their invisible ghost dog...)

► At first, you thought that Indievile just had a lot of Starbucks. I mean, it's not surprising. There's a Starbucks on every corner these days, or so it seems! But the longer you start to take notice, you begin to realize... there literally is one on every corner. Every time you look over your shoulder, the same Starbucks is there. It's following. It's watching you. Do the weird hipster employees really just want you to make a Starbucks Rewards™ account, or are they looking to make a frothy frappuccino with your blood?

► Everyone knows that, as sweet as old widowed warlock Mr. Harris is, he's just losing his touch. Now another one of his spells have gone haywire, and he's cursed you and/or some of your friends with a terrible spell: you can't cuss. No matter what you try, your tongue twists at the last minute and "frickle frackleson" or "oh bother" slips out instead. Now if you want to get the spell broken, you'll have to get it through this Alzheimers-riddled head that you're not his deceased wife, or one of his grown children, and that you really don't want to stay for tea gosh dingle darnit, would you just break the spell?!

► It's time for the great skeleton migration! Every spring and every fall, the skeletons shake off their soil and drag their coffins over to the other Indieville graveyard. (One is in the shade, see, so they're buried there in summer, but prefer to be buried in the one with full sun for winter.) And since these dead folks only get out twice a year, they're ready to RAGE! For three days, these skeletons are prepared to party, dance, gyrate, drink, and gamble. Are you monster enough to handle the infamous skeleton bender?!

► Some paperwork seems to have been messed up at the morgue, and a grim reaper is utterly convinced that you are supposed to be dead. It keeps showing up on your doorstep, following you around, and pestering you at work. "Just sign on the dotted line!" "C'mon, right here, look at all the death benefits!" "Life insurance bonuses if you sign today!" "Please, I need this job. My rent is piling up. My partner is going to leave me." "Don't make this get messy..." And that big scythe is starting to look pretty intimidating...

► It's Alien Fashion Week! On the Fleek, a state-of-the-art UFO, the latest fashions and best models will get to strut the catwalk. The thing is that only Indieville residents with the most poppin' Instagrams will be abducted! So either start working on that sweet IG account, or, if you're successfully abducted, enjoy fashion week!

► A cupid is passing through town and unfortunately seems to have decided that you and one of your friends would be perfect for each other. We're talking OTP material here. He's determined to keep trying to set you up with each other until you kiss! (BONUS: you frustrate him just a little too much, and out come the heart arrows, which will make you infatuated with each other for 24 hours! DUCK FOR COVER!)

► Thanks to the events of Chapter Five, a large number of Indieville citizens are tiny! But here's an upside: entire new worlds have been unlocked! A "town" called Little Indieville lies in the sewer tunnels, where smalls come to mingle, buy, sell, and have fun - sure, water drips from the walls sometimes, but that's fine, you can buy yourself some handy water-repelling umbrellas from a magic grasshopper salesman! Thirsty? No problem, a little round shoulder angel has a steaming little teashop in one of the tunnels! Do you want to go up? oh... well... you see, the stairs are super long when you're this small. Maybe you should pay the shady cloaked figure to teleport you up.

► A new magic massage parlor has opened in Indieville! A coupon gives you 50% off if you come with a friend, so you grab someone and head on down. The massage witch casts a spell that is supposed to "relieve and free your mind..." but before you know it, everything goes black! You open your eyes, but... it's not your eyes. That's when you realize: you've accidentally possessed your friend. Your body is lolling around uselessly on the other table. As your friend begins to protest loudly inside "your" head, the witch apologizes profusely, but... she doesn't know how to fix it. What to do now?!


► Local reindeer have gained the ability to fly! While this is neat and all, they've taken to getting up on people's roofs and balconies to eat any house plants they may have. This peculiar change in the reindeer has come with the peculiar presence of a drifter in town, a man with rosy cheeks, a big belly, and white hair... he's set a reward of one reindeer plushie per deer you manage to bring back safe and sound! But be warned: the deer may try to buck and run if you're not dressed in red clothes, a red hat, and a long white beard...
