    q2adavis.pngYou there, try walking through the door now!

    qfg2hero.gifThat makes no sense, but if it makes you happy...

    qfg18082011171406.png

    qfg2hero.gifWould it help if I said, "herp derp" while doing this?

    q2adavis.pngNo, no, fool! Pass through it! Oh, get out of the way.

    You have no idea how or why you got here, but it is nice to be able to help such a nice man.

    qfg18082011171421.png

    qfg2hero.gifI might still be hypnotized, but I can understand you, friend. You didn't stare all the sarcasm out of me. Nobody is powerful enough to do that.

    q2adavis.pngWhat is wrong? How does it go? "For one thousand years and a year, Iblis will be bound..." I know that it has been one thousand and one years to this very day, so that MUST be correct. "Beneath the tombstones of the city that he once did found." This is the Forbidden City, there is no doubt of that. "Then comes a hero from the northland, led unto despair..." You are the only hero that I have found recently; it must be you! And I have no doubt you will despair before I am through with you. "Passing through the door unopened, that he will find there." The door! Accursed door. Why can you not pass through it? "When the moonlight shines between the Dragon's jaws... And is caught and held there by the Scorpion's claws." The moon! It is not due to rise between the two constellations until tomorrow! How can I be wrong?

    qfg2hero.gifI would hate to see you take a standardized test.

    q2adavis.pngI WILL NOT BE DENIED!

    qfg18082011171443.png

    q2adavis.pngI cannot be wrong. It did not say one thousand and one years and a day. No! But how can the moon be where it cannot be? You! You're the hero. Answer me how the moon can be between the Dragon and the Scorpion?

    qfg2hero.gifFor being a mighty and all-knowing master of WIT, you sure do dip a lot of shit when it comes to riddles. Leave it to a Thief to solve it for you.

    qfg18082011171540.png

    qfg18082011171548.png

    qfg18082011171550.png

    qfg2hero.gifNext time you spend decades working on a plan, figure this shit out ahead of time.

    q2adavis.pngAt last! Now how does the rest of the prophecy go?

    "And at last the hero 'He Who Waits Behind' shall see,
    While Iblis rises by the Dark One and the light shall flee.
    By the name of Suleiman, so shall this be!"

    Now you know all you need to know. Go in there and bring me the Statue of Iblis!


    qfg18082011171602.png

    qfg2hero.gifJust so you know, I liked you better when you were boring and repetitive and kept calling yourself my friend. We never used to fight. What happened to us? *sniff*

    qfg18082011171607.png

    Then the euphoric feeling starts to fade and you stand alone in the darkness. The past few hours are hazy in your memory. You remember only one thing clearly: you are here to find the Statue of Iblis.

    qfg2hero.gifY'know, I can see pretty well in the dark if there's a little bit of ambient moonlight, but I don't even have that here. Time to use the ol' trusty Fire Elemental.

    qfg18082011171607.png

    qfg2hero.gifMuch better. Now, back to my sneaky, stealthy ways.

    qfg18082011171631.png

    qfg2hero.gifWell you're no fun, narrator.

    qfg18082011171659.png

    qfg2hero.gifWhere do the logs come from? Geez, I'm starting to make my brain hurt again. I guess I should just be grateful I have something to jump onto.

    qfg18082011171708.png

    qfg18082011171701.png

    qfg2hero.gifLet's go surfin' now, everybody's learnin' how, come on a spelunking with meeeeee

    qfg18082011171703.png

    qfg18082011171726.png

    qfg2hero.gifThat's what she said.

    qfg18082011171756.png

    qfg2hero.gifAhhh! My crotch is being sucked towards the hole! ...hey, wait. This is an altogether new sensation! I like it! Better not overdo it, though. This is a family adventure.

    qfg18082011171757.png

    qfg2hero.gifClose one. Well, the air currents seem to rise up and go over to that ledge I'll be heading to in just a minute. Can't have that. I'll just use my trusty Thief Toolkit here and block this mother off.

    qfg18082011171809.png

    qfg18082011171810.png

    qfg18082011171812.png

    qfg2hero.gifThere we go. Onward to help my buddy.

    qfg18082011171826.png

    qfg18082011171831.png

    You need to watch your footing on the upper walkway. It's easier than it looks to fall back down to the lower floor, giving you a hit to your HP and making you jump over the deadly log falls again.

    qfg18082011171846.png

    qfg2hero.gifSomehow I knew all my exploits would land me in hell.

    qfg18082011171853.png

    qfg18082011171857.png

    qfg2hero.gifOw ow OW! My poor boots are burning! Gotta be more prudent...

    qfg18082011171911.png

    qfg18082011171913.png

    qfg2hero.gifThis isn't really supposed to be a conundrum, is it? Magic rope time.

    ropel.gif

    qfg2hero.gifNo lock to pick on this weird-ass door. I guess I'll just take a lesson from WIT and knock.

    qfg18082011171947.png

    qfg18082011171949.png

    qfg2hero.gifWell, I wasn't around when this door was made, so it couldn't be me, unfortunately. The only name I know from the prophecy is Suleiman, and...

    qfg18082011171952.png

    qfg2hero.gifNo need to shout, shitbird! I can hear you perfectly well! It's Suleiman.

    qfg18082011171959.png

    qfg2hero.gifDoor's open. On I go, I guess. Gee, I wonder if my good pal will be happier once I get this thing done. I wish we could go back to the good old days when we would hang out and... hmm... I can't remember what we did. Oh well. Moving right along...

    qfg18082011172004.png

    qfg2hero.gifNo obvious obstacles here. What's all that stuff piled up against the walls?

    qfg18082011172026.png

    qfg2hero.gifEPIC LEWT!

    qfg18082011172030.png

    qfg2hero.gifDAMN YOU, SULEIMAN, MY ONE WEAKNESS! HOW DID YOU KNOOOOOOW

    qfg18082011172033.png

    qfg18082011172046.png

    qfg2hero.gifOn second thought, nothing here looks like what my good friend needs. I'd best move along, I can always come back for treasure later. I don't have a way to drag it out of here right now anyway.

    qfg18082011172048.png

    qfg2hero.gifThat's it! Won't my platonic acquaintance be pleased!

    qfg18082011172050.png

    qfg18082011172053.png

    qfg18082011172056.png

    qfg2hero.gifI really can't see any way this will end badly for me.

    qfg18082011172101.png

    The crystal's cool glow is numbing. You feel compelled to pick it up, but as you reach out...

    qfg18082011172111.png

    qfg2hero.gifOne of these days I'm going to figure out how not to be paralyzed at inopportune times.

    teleportin.gif

    qfg18082011172120.png

    qfg2hero.gifOh, that shit is still going down, lickspittle. Let me loose for a second and you'll have a dagger lodged in your dickhole.

    q2adavis.pngDo you know how long I have awaited this moment? Seventy years! Seventy years I have served the Dark Master while watching for the stars to align. Seventy years I have spent learning the magic that controls men's minds and waiting for a fool to fulfill the prophecy for me.

    qfg2hero.gifHere's a thought: if you could just teleport down here any damn time you pleased, why did you sit around on your ass for seventy years? Oh, I know. Because it's going to make it all the more sweet when you die with my knife lodged in your gut.

    q2adavis.pngTonight, as the moon arises between the Scorpion's claws and the Dragon's teeth, I shall begin the ritual that shall make me the Master! I will control Iblis, and thus control the world. While you, pawn of prophecy, shall remain behind in this tomb. You shall be "He Who Waits Behind."

    qfg2hero.gifThanks for monologuing your evil plans to me. Now I'm assuredly going to fuck your shit up.

    2g63z.gif

    qfg2hero.gifOr... maybe not.

    qfg18082011172141.png

    qfg2hero.gifBye!

    qfg18082011172156.png

    qfg2hero.gifAlone at last. I guess I'll try and pry these rocks out of the way, I am a fine specimen of a man... HURRRRK

    qfg18082011172205.png

    qfg2hero.gifWell that's just great. I guess I'd better just sit down over here and... hey...

    qfg18082011172210.png

    qfg2hero.gifShiny! Sparkly! Gimme!

    qfg18082011172219.png

    genieappears.gif

    qfg18082011172226.png

    qfg2hero.gifOh hey! Looks like Mr. 'Vis missed the real treasure in here. I wish for all the gold in the entire world!

    q2djinni.pngThat's a fucking terrible idea. If you have all the money in the world, the economy would collapse and you'd never get to spend your money.

    qfg2hero.gifDon't bother me with trifles, dammit! Okay, I'll be a little more reasonable. I wish Ad Avis was dead.

    q2djinni.pngBut that would completely destroy the narrative!

    qfg2hero.gifWell, what the fuck can you do, you billowing cloud of fart?

    q2djinni.pngYou are the lord of the Ring, since you put it on and twisted it. Your wish is my command, as long as it helps return Iblis here. We Djinn are very great and powerful. Well, some of us are, anyway. I can grant you three wishes by the power of the Ring. I can get you anything you want, as long as it is health, prowess, or teleporting you to Iblis.

    qfg2hero.gifI wish the person who left you here had had the foresight to give me a djinn who could do things. Fine. First, I wish to be really, super lucky. I've a mind to take up gambling.

    qfg18082011172443.png

    q2djinni.pngBy my power, may you have the skill of ten men!

    qfg18082011172448.png

    qfg2hero.gif...You might have said something along those lines before you did anything else. Still, I feel like I could roll 7's all day long now. Much obliged. Now, for my second wish. I wish to be the most agile Thief in the world.

    qfg18082011172453.png

    Again, we are feeling extremely skilled.

    q2djinni.pngYou have but one wish left. Choose carefully, Master.

    qfg2hero.gifAll right. Take me to the bad guys. It's time to take out the trash (and get paid in the process).

    q2djinni.pngOoooh... one little thing there, Master. This is going to take all the rest of the magic power I have, and all you have too.

    qfg2hero.gifBeg pardon?

    q2djinni.pngI'll need to drain the magic essence in you to teleport you to Iblis. It won't be an immediate change. You'll still be able to use magic for a little while, but pretty soon you'll be an ordinary muggle again.

    qfg2hero.gifYou're even more worthless than I thought! ...Ugh... well, it can't be any worse than staying here forever or the world ending. I suppose I'll just have to leave the magic to other heroes, then. It isn't as if I was using it much lately, anyway.

    When I did my family write-up (4 cousins going through the game at once, each one a different class and each completing a game), I had the thief complete the first adventure then when everyone else is trying to stop Ad Avis, the thief goes, "hey, my cousins' got this covered, and I'm already a hero... think I'll just relax with you ladies for a bit... " :winky:

    qfg18082011175029.png

    qfg2hero.gifWell, get on with it, then.

    q2djinni.pngIn the name of Suleiman bin Daoud the Binder and by my Power as He Who Waits Behind: Take us to Iblis!

    qfg18082011175033.png

    magiiiiiic.png

    qfg18082011175038.png

    qfg2hero.gifNothing like a little teleportation to make one feel violently ill.

    qfg18082011175041.png

    q2djinni.pngWow, what do you know? It worked! My magic really worked! We are now in what you call Raseir. This is as close to Iblis as I could get.

    qfg2hero.gifOh, good. I was hoping you would be here, too.

    q2djinni.pngThere are some very powerful spells coming from that Palace over there. We don't have much time!

    qfg2hero.gifBetter carry my ass, then.

    q2djinni.pngWell, what are you waiting for? Let's go!

    herofanboyw.pngEat shit and die!

    qfg18082011175051.png

    qfg18082011175053.png

    q2sharaf.pngThe Underground is prepared to attack the Palace. If you need to enter there, we will provide some distraction for you. However, we are almost ready, so you must hurry before you are caught in our battle.

    qfg18082011175101.png

    qfg2hero.gifI love using furry animals as meat shields slash distractions.

    qfg18082011175243.png

    qfg2hero.gifTime for my greatest heist yet: sneaking into the Palace of Raseir.

    qfg18082011175250.png

    qfg2hero.gifTwo guards and a eunuch (heh). That's all they left to keep me from getting in? These sons of bitches don't know me very well. Looks like a scarf was left for me, just like that one lady said. Guess that's my cue.

    qfg18082011175308.png

    If you don't stick to the shadows, you're spotted, the guards run out and while you're trying to fend them off, Iblis gets released upon the world, utter ruin, death and destruction yadda yadda yadda. Just stay out of sight here.

    qfg18082011175324.png

    qfg2hero.gifOkay, no-dick up there is headed the other way. Now's my chance to get up there without him seeing.

    GKxpb.gif

    qfg18082011175338.png

    qfg2hero.gifPhew, made it. I don't think anybody saw me...

    qfg18082011175339.png

    And this is why the Thief is the best class.

    qfg2hero.gif...Ladies :winky:

    qfg18082011175340.png

    qfg2hero.gifI am feeling very welcome right now. Trust me, the pleasure is all mine. (Oh sweet merciful Allah thank you Rakeesh for sending me here I owe you one bro)

    mayzun.jpgQuickly, you must hide before the eunuch passes. There, go behind the curtain.

    qfg18082011175345.png

    qfg2hero.gifYes'm!

    qfg18082011175348.png

    qfg18082011175354.png

    mayzun.jpgIf you wish to watch him, you will need to sneak through the next room. We will try to aid you by distracting one of the eunuchs.

    qfg2hero.gifI wish to do a lot more than watch him. I hope you know how to distract a man with no genitals; it's tougher than it sounds.

    mayzun.jpgQuickly, hide again.

    qfg2hero.gifK

    qfg18082011175405.png

    mayzun.jpgThis is the one who gave his clothes to Zayishah.

    Kahla: How handsome he is.

    Layla: How strong his muscles are.

    Sulayma: Lucky Zayishah.

    Nawar: If I had been her, clothes would not be the only thing we exchanged in that room.

    herofanboyw.png

    Budar: If you had been her, you never would have left that room.

    Ruzhat: How his hair shines like sunlight! His eyes, like starlight.

    Dunya: Already, you moon for him.

    qfg18082011175423.png

    qfg2hero.gifAll right, but after I save the world I'm coming back.

    qfg18082011175425.png

    Sulayma: Whatever would we do?

    Nawar: (I can think of several things.)

    Budar: (Shhh.)

    Ruzhat: But you, Barli, you will protect us from strangers.

    Dunya: No stranger could possibly get past you.

    qfg18082011175450.png

    qfg2hero.gif*snicker*

    mayzun.jpgThen perhaps you should go back to your watch.

    Kahla: We feel so safe.

    Layla: With you out there.

    Sulayma: No stranger would dare enter.

    Nawar: (Enter what?)

    :shock:

    Budar: (Shhh.)

    Ruzhat: Thank you for warning us.

    Dunya: We will be very, very careful.

    qfg18082011175503.png

    mayzun.jpgGo, before some stranger tries to sneak upon the battlements.

    qfg18082011175506.png

    qfg2hero.gifThat was fun, but I gotta get going before-

    mayzun.jpgHero, go behind the curtain! A guard comes.

    qfg2hero.gifOh come on already

    qfg18082011175523.png

    Layla: With teeth like pearl.

    Sulayma: And lips made for kissing.

    Nawar: And a tongue made for...

    Budar: (Nawar!)

    mayzun.jpgQuickly, go to the doorway and sneak into the other room.

    qfg2hero.gifOkay! Okay! I'm leaving for real now!

    Ruzhat: Couldn't he stay longer?

    Dunya: He just got here.

    mayzun.jpgQuiet. Go now, Hero, before we all get caught.

    qfg18082011175554.png

    qfg18082011175556.png

    Layla: Good luck.

    Sulayma: Come back soon.

    Nawar: Perhaps later tonight?

    Budar: And the next night, and the next?

    qfg2hero.gif(Holy shit, they all want my wrinklestick!) Yes, I will definitely be back later. Promise.

    Ruzhat: Such stories we could tell you.

    Dunya: Such tales we could make.

    Nawar: Speaking of making tails...

    Budar: Your mind is always on that end.

    Nawar: If the means justify it.

    mayzun.jpgBe careful. It is very dangerous out there. May fortune favor you, and may you go before you get caught!

    qfg18082011180331.png

    q2djinni.pngCareful, Master. There is some sort of spell between the pillars. It won't let any magic or anything alive get through from outside. Even so, somehow we've got to stop the last candle from being lit.

    qfg2hero.gifAnd that, my non-gifted Djinni, is why Allah invented daggers.

    We chuck one at the nearest candle.

    q2djinni.pngMissed us! Let's get him, Master! Go over to the other pillar where you can get back at that wicked old human.

    qfg2hero.gifDon't order me around! ...But yeah, I'm gonna do that.

    We threw a dagger, which bounced off of Ad Avis.

    q2djinni.pngYeah! We did it! The spell on the room is broken now, Master. We can go in.

    qfg18082011180522.png

    qfg2hero.gifAhhh... solid ground again.

    qfg18082011180526.png

    q2djinni.pngI knew I would remember it. The real prophecy is...

    "One thousand years and a year,
    so shall Iblis be caught,
    In the tombstones of the city,
    where he and I once fought.
    Until moonlight has been captured,
    twixt the Scorpion and Drake,
    Then comes a hero from the north,
    and ancient powers wake.

    Led and followed by a Dark One,
    guide to deceit and despair,
    Passing through the trial by fire,
    Trials of water, earth and air;
    Passing through the door unopened,
    barrier that yields to none,
    By my name of Suleiman,
    So shall this be done!

    Come at last unto betrayal,
    and to 'He Who Waits Behind,'
    Seek ye then to capture Iblis,
    'ere he rises unconfined.
    Else shall come the night eternal,
    Darkness overshadows light,
    Unless a hero seeks the Darkness
    and restores the wrongs to right."

    Bye bye, Master. It's been fun!

    Hopefully soon we can all be playing QFG3. I would say this next set will place us at 2/5 of the way through the entire LP, but it's probably a little bit more than that, considering how little time will be necessary in 3.

    But I think that 4 and 5 are going to take at least as long as 2.

    Yeah, as I understand it:
    Nawar=Thief
    Elsa=Fighter
    Katrina=Mage
    Erana=Paladin

    But I'm sure there's some leeway there. When I played 5 I always preferred:
    Elsa or Erana. Nawar was a bit whorish and Katrina was such a let down from her QG4 voice actor.

    aziza.jpgThis man of his own free will went into the desert and sought the plant-woman Julanar. Through his kindness and compassion, he allowed Julanar to forget the pain and suffering of her past and to again face life with joy.

    qfg2hero.gifNow she's going to be a tourist trap on the way to Shapeir. "Mommy, daddy, can we see the plant bimbo?" "Yeah, I gotta pee pee daddy!" "No, we're not stopping until we get there!"

    aziza.jpgThis man also found a caged beast in the desert.

    qfg2hero.gifActually, it'd be more accurate to say the Dervish found it. But he did jack shit, so yeah, I'll take the credit.

    aziza.jpgThough it was wicked and most foul, Hamburglar turned aside its wickedness and restored its humanity. We shall hope it may learn from the kindness of the hero.

    Final stats...

    Note the horrendous Honor score. Even after being proclaimed a Hero and the son of the Sultan.

    qfg19082011082630.png

    And I maxed my score for the first time ever, too. Without even trying. I dunno, I guess I just never really cared all that much for the points. Doing silly things like asking the genie about the wishes are pretty arbitrary, since talking to other people doesn't necessarily net you anything. Oh well. I'll take it as a victory for all Thief-kind.

    The OP was officially too long with this update. I moved all the extraneous bullshit to the second post, in case you are still wondering why you can't read anything or what this game is about or shit like that. I have a feeling this will continue to be a problem as this LP gets lengthier and lengthier.

    I was going to try to roll this into my first QFG3 set, but it's not really wizard specific, so...

    Here is the trailer for Quest for Glory 3 (no, really, they made a trailer):

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9z-O7Snlhwg

  • SyphyreSyphyre A Dangerous Pastime Registered User regular
    So, the Paladin gets points in his magic stat. (Why, I have no clue, couldn't they just make the paladin spells run off honor?) Because of this, when you start QFG3, you get the Wizard opening sequence, rather than the Fighter sequence (You'd think they would have thought of that) So I had to go through two opening sequences to get it right.

  • joshofalltradesjoshofalltrades Class Traitor Smoke-filled roomRegistered User regular
    I'm going to hold off on starting QFG3 for the weekend. 4 sets in 2 days takes its toll.
