Meet Spendrall, the Foundry Wizard:
He's just started his career and he's ready to explore new lands, dungeons and products of your imagination.
So distinguished authors, hit Spendrall with your proudest creations
and he'll give you his feedback, in his characteristically ireverent manner.
(No 2-minute errands or 2-hour epics, please. Reading Homer is more fun.)

Here's my quest for you.
Title: The Warblood Art of War
Short Code: NW-DEBINEVMA
Description: The Warblood clan is well known for their exemplary war tactics and battle prowess. A book was created many years ago by a great Warblood tactician. This book was called The Warblood Art of War.
The book is to be delivered to Mithral Hall by order of the Warblood's dwarven king. Kevlamin Warblood, a veteran fighter, was chosen to guard the book with a host of dwarven escort. Along the way, Kevlamin and his dwarven escort was ambushed and the book went missing. This book is a historical relic to the Warbloods and must be returned by all means necessary.
Intended for a single player game.
PS: I've included additional dialogue in the tavern because I thought I might include them for my future creations.
Short code: NW-DTET2QLF4
This is pretty short and simple, maybe 15-20 minutes (solo). Looking to make some longer, more involved ones in the future. More of an introduction to the NPCs.
I see what you did there.
EDIT: As a side note, it might be sort of fun if the start of your posts in this thread were written from the point of view of Spendrall (before the actual feedback). Sort of a journal as he travels around. I understand if that's not your kind of thing, though.
Ooo, Warblood Art of War. Spendrall sets off, in search (?) of the book with the bada$$ name!
They are solo story-orientated quests. I hope you enjoy them.
WIP
After much testing, it has recently moved into a live version! It is a solo quest and has been averaging about 20-30 minutes. So, check it out and tell me what you think.
No Country for Old Undead
Spendrall has recovered The Warblood Art of War! But he doesn't like to be typecast as a bloodthirsty killer at the end.
Bad for Tiefling rep, you know, even if they're drow
I contact you not on my own behalf, but for the sake of a business partner - Abacada Bonderleaf the Inquisitive. He runs an enchanted merchandise shop from his tower in Thundertree, and his daily shipments of ground dryad flakes - excellent supplement for gardens, by the way - ceased several days ago. Given the man's extreme devotion to his business, this can only mean something is wrong - likely he has blown himself up. As a fellow magician, would you be able to check in on him, and make certain all is well?
Oh, and you'll probably want to check the job boards in Neverwinter before departing. Gods know there's probably a task more befitting an adventurer such as yourself in Thundertree that you can attend to while you are visiting.
"Bonderleaf's Thorough Aggregator" (NW-DBFUDMT8L) - enjoy, and let me know what you think!
It started with a burglary
Then it got friendly
But it ended badly

Spendrall is now off to Black Hand Inn, to catch miscreants (?) red-handed! The tiefling mage makes a mental note to stock more healing potions; he nearly succumbed to an undignified demise in the earlier encounters with the evil drow!
I tried with my rogue but had cut down on them a lot because a) the xp is so bad, and b) so many were broken (generally not the ones that had posted on here) but other ones were just so broken it was clear that not even the author had tested them. I found it quite frustrating quite quickly; so now I just stick to the forum requests or the tried and tested quests.

The details are in my sig
Author : @labmouse43
Short Code : NW-DJHHV5CGY
Name : The Frosty Protologist
Duration : 15 minutes
Spendrall had lots of fun looking for Liz! Great range of dialogue choices, and believable reactions from NPCs. A solid 5-star quest!
Now Spendrall must retire to memorise his spells.
Oh wait. Wrong ed.
Spendrall can't wait to discover Discovery! But it is late, and he must polish his horns to keep them healthy.
Ah, this is intriguing! Ground dryad flakes? Spendrall hopes the dryads didn't scream too much.
Please review my campaign and I'll return the favor.
Spendrall is impressed with the well-decorated house, but is dismayed to tangle with drow and spiders again! (seems to be many authors' favourite bad guys; not your fault )
The tiefling mage shivers at the thought of assembling the McGuffin rod -- to control dragons! But he's a little puzzled with the seemingly random tasks: examining anvil, burning banners ...
Maybe he wasn't paying attention in exposition class?
If you like what Spendrall is doing, please post your proudest creations here
You're welcome! You might also want to include a bit of exposition in the beginning as to why you're sending the player to this house. I was wondering why ... until I read the quest description.
And I can't seem to scroll down the description in my journal. Dang bugs.

Shortcode: NW-DKYGGYPUE
I do plan on playing the Goblin King regardless even if you do not play mine through. It is in my queue.
A short solo hack-n-slash: The Dirty Dwarf
Spendrall will get to yours soon! He totally prefers human quest-givers, than silly NPCs who mutter the same lines over and over again.
Short Code: NWS-DS65BLNMA
Number of quests currently in campaign: 3
Number of quests planned for campaign: 4
Heavily story based with some exploration and combat.
First quest: "The Crypt of Shadows.
Short Code: NW-DBGXQLI9L
Duration: 15-20 minutes.
Most of the quest is a maze with three items needed to progress the quest in it.
Second quest: "Shadowed Motives"
Short Code: NW-DKAXWZGCG
Duration: 35-40 minutes.
Third quest: "A Visit to the Shadowfell"
NW-DQ3SYZF5F
Duration: 30-35 minutes.
I do plan on mixing up the encounters a bit on the first one and making the third map of the second one easier.
This is my first quest so it still needs some refining, though I have been making minor revisions almost daily just to get it tightened up. Hopefully you get a chance to enjoy it. More from this storyline will be in the works.

A work in progress, I was pushing for an eerie/mysterious environment. Thanks ahead of time
