You are the Quest Monitor! You track quest progress, reward players, and replenish source cards.

Exeunt

Whenever the scene is about to end, do the following:

• Describe how the characters leave the setting
• Describe how long it will take for the characters to get to their next destination
• Assess quest progress and rewards (see Assess Quests below)
• Decide if any players replenish their cards (see Restore Sources below)
• Update sheets when something dramatic happens (see Defining Moment below)
• Choose the next Scene Monitor for the next scene (see Pass the Ball below)

Assess Quests

Assess all active quests and do the following for every quest completed:

• Give out rewards (see Rewards below)
• Roll for a Completed Quest Prompt (see Prompts)
• Create a new quest in the quest line, or if this quest completed the quest line, then create a new quest line for the character or the story

Rewards

You may give a character a new ability, effect, or item that is related to a quest they completed. For example, completing the goal to “meet the alchemist” could reward a healing potion. Describe how exactly the character receives their new ability, effect, or item.

If the ability, effect, or item is temporary, then create it as a prop. To create a prop, you will indicate its owner and its traits as well as a number of uses. For instance, a small healing potion might only have one use while a pack of bandages might have three uses.

<aside> 💡

The number of uses rewarded corresponds to how big the quest was. Consider one use for small quests, two uses for medium quests, and three uses for big quests.

</aside>

If the ability, effect, or item is permanent, then add it as a new trait on their character sheet.

<aside> 💡

New traits are massive gamechangers. Consider a temporary reward for an ordinary quest completed and a permanent reward only for quests that complete quest lines.
