Void Entrance Quest
Gate in the Astral Realm
Location: Astral Realm
Requirements to complete (can be started earlier). May be completed alone or as a group.
All participants must have Spiritual Enlightenment.
6+ TEC between entire group (may use powered-up stats as basis). Requirement lowered by 1 for each level above 1 your highest-level participant has.
Difficulty: Extreme (20,000-40,000 words dependent on writing quality)
Reward: Void entrance in the Astral Realm
Somewhere, in the verse of the Astral Realm, a dreamer dreams of a gate to the void. If you somehow learn of it, you quickly find out that there is no direct path there. The only way to reach it is to hop from dream to dream, hoping to god you're heading the right direction in an ocean of dreamers out there. If you leave the Astral Realm at any point for any reason, you have to start over as you lose whatever "progress" you've made.
Your quest will take many forms as each dream is shaped by the mind that created it. Some will be peaceful early on, but they'll get more and more dangerous as you come across the depraved minds that seem to gravitate towards the dream that holds the gate. You may even enter the dreams of site NPCs at several points in your journey, (with permission of course.) However, the longer you stay in the Astral Realm, the more your own doubts, guilts, and flaws manifest into physical beings, and the longer these manifestations exist, the harder it is to tell them apart from actual people. Also, the longer you stay in the Astral Realm, the more malignant entities will take notice of you. They will eventually get more and more involved as an obstacle.
When you finally find the gate, you will discover that it is a dream created by Azathoth himself. If you manage to muster the mental fortitude to not go insane from the sheer horrors that his world would expose you, then you can walk through the gate and make it to the void.
As you will most likely be in the Astral Realm for months in character, you are required to have Spiritual Enlightenment as your body would waste away in real life otherwise. Not to mention, you'd need to be physically there to pass through the gate.
