Because of the excitement caused by yesterday's find, I am making a quest rewarded with a WP! The find is different from the topic of this thread, but it started there...in ''European'' demonology, there are six types of demons. The uppermost demons inhabit an area known as the ‘fiery’ (diapyron), the second category the ‘airy’ (aerion), the third the ‘earthly’ (chthonion), the fourth the ‘watery’ (fresh and salt: hydraion and enalion), the fifth the ‘sub-earthly’ (hypochthonion) and the sixth the ‘light-hating and insensible’ (misophaes and dysaisthêton). What I want you to do is research the origin of this categorization, which is much more ancient than, say, …

This is a writing quest, with 3 winners who'll get 1 g each (plus a 14th anniv creature for first). Not all submissions will get a place, even if there are three only. Judging will be affected by creativity and persuasiveness. The theme is about something I've always wondered: what is outside MD? or what is outside the former cube? If we build an observatory somewhere and placed a powerful telescope there, what would we see? The void? Other cubes? Would there be a magic field that would make us see ourselves instead of ''what's really out there''? Each submission should be at least 300 words and sent to me; contest starts tomorrow at midday ST and lasts for 72 h…

(the post will be updated with rewards tomorrow, as I have to check a few things and I can't concentrate on doing it now) (This is a two-step contest, step two will begin after all submissions are made.) First and foremost, you'll have to take a picture of the night sky in your area, so that all those twinkling stars are visible. Next, you either print it or work on it on your computer, but what you'll do is draw your own 12 constellations, creating whatever bizarre formations you want. After all, what are constellations if not asterisms with a story? Once those 12 are finished, you'll assign a month to each and assign to each month something representative for …

Hello everyone! This quest is about a proclamation the King and Grand Duke, Chewett made. To start the quest, you must go to Marind's Roundabout and "listen" to what Chewett is saying. (If you follow the mdscript prompts and it doesn't give you more content, back out and try again, it sometimes does that) Once you have read the introduction section of the quest (there's 5 parts), then it will tell you to come back here. Then post here which route you choose. This quest has 3 different pathways: A) Artistic: where you create your own ritual of transforming the creature-must start quest to get guidelines B) Basic clickie: Where you follow in dark…

Please post here if you are intending to create and run a quest during AAA. You should post your name and the intended name(s) of the quest(s) you intend to prepare and create for the event. The topic of this particular AAA event is celestial lycanthropy. Basically this means that something about the heavens and something about transformation can be the theme (the self changes, the heavens change, both change, in different causal or correlational relationships). This theme is meant to be your inspiration, to get your juices flowing. Guidelines: You can have your own rewards, however every participant who completes your quest will get QuestPoints (QP)…

So, the anniversary is over, but a new wave of plushies is descending on the realm. As you may have noticed, Cyrus Siridius has been caught trespassing Necrovion and met a premature end. Who is this fellow? What do we know about him? This is what a very accurate autopsy revealed: Spoiler https://magicduel.com/member.php?p=Cyrus Siridius You have one week (deadline: May 11 23.59 server time) to draw an avatar for Cyrus Siridius. Quoting Aia, the drawing should be in black and white (no colours). Ideally, the proportions should be scalable to an Avatar (which, when scaled down, is 160 pixels high and 100 pixels wide) - however, th…

Below are the logs for the 1st annual April Fools Joke contest! The rules were simple, tell 5 dad-jokes (as you can see in the logs... we just kind of moved into any kind of joke). Most jokes that I saw are underlined (before it was too much for PC to handle) Ways to win: every person should vote for their top two jokes by responding below. (This means even participants can vote, though I encourage you not just to vote for your own.) It should look like this (example post) 1. Steno: What is the loudest sport? --->>>Racketball 2. Mur: Have you heard the joke about silence? --->Neither have I. This way I know who said what jo…

So... I was thinking, since there are a lot of older accounts being reactivated (so much so that Mur had to make an announcement about ancient powers, lol) that a LOT has happened in the realm of MagicDuel. As some of the ads for the game even proclaim: "We never reset"! I don't know very much about what has happened in the twelve years that I've been gone.The Adventure Log is pretty awesome, but it is a lot. I think this would be really handy for old-new players as well as brand new players! The accessibility of lore helps immerse new players. So I wanted to propose a contest, as MD seems to have quite a few authors. Pick one of your favorite events i…

Wiiya is something that is important in MD and in time will become more important. The question is, why is it important? This quest, which will run for a month or until an undetermined number of submissions have been received, In this post you should reply with a submission of up to 1000 words which explain what you think Wiiya is both to you and MD. Expanding on its importance and how it fits within MD's lore. The answers can reference other knowledge, other answers or be exceptionally personal to you. Please post all answers on this thread. Others are welcome to ask questions of your reply, which you are also allowed to answer. Any answers to questio…

An excerpt from Memories in the Wind, Ch. 3, as told to Aia: ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The winds whistled through the canyon as the slivered moon peeked through streaky clouds. The soft outline of an unmoving hooded figure could be seen standing by the bridge. Slow, disciplined breaths were hidden behind the loose-fitting cloak. Fang looked up. By the shifting phase of the moon, it must have been seven days - the waning crescent almost gone from sight. Luna's hidden gaze would provide ample cover from the faceless figures guarding the bridge's entran…

For this Christmas, I bring you a little quest in the 'decorate a scene' style. You can work digitally or analog, as long as you respect the indications. The indications are hinted in the title - I want something that reflects the absence of snow. Spoiler I remember that my childhood's winters were snowy. Some years meant you could hardly go through the snow blanket. Everything was dazzling white, so white it hurt your eyes. Not anymore. This winter, I had one day of snow (1). I'm not complaining - hey, it's warmer. Besides, the snow is not gone yet - it'll be here. In...March. I'm not complaining, but it is strange to me, so I chose this theme. …

This quest is a repeat/rerun/finish of a quest originally run on Facebook (and possibly Discord?) by @Blackshade Rider The participants have been lost to the sands of time however I will re-open it s everyone who did participate can have a chance at even better rewards! If you participated before, please do submit your requests . If you dont resubmit I will spend some time copying them over (but ideally please do to save me time !) The quest is simple, take an avatar in MD and colour it in using any medium you wish. This quest will run for a month, ending 31st of August, please bump it as needed. Rewards The following rewards will be given: 1…

So there are people who say that Neil armstrong wasnt the first man on the moon and the whole thing was a hoax. So I challenge you to question the obvious and give me considerable proof that Neil armstrong wasnt the first man on the moon. Link: http://binscorner.com/pages/d/didneilarmstronglandonmoon.html P.S. I will reward a wishpoint to the three most interesting answers :)

This is a mathematical problem, one that I devised some years ago, that I remembered recently. It might be of interest to those fond of mathematical challenges. The question is as follows: Find the sum of all numbers, such that, after 13 steps, which can be any of the following: Add 13 to the current number Subtract 13 to the current number Multiply the current number by 13 Divide the current number by 13 Raise the current number to the power of 13 Raise the current number to the power of -13 That the final number be of the same value of the original number Rewards: The most elegant solution submitted within one…

Here is my new drawing~ lets play a little game with it! Use your imagination to write a dramatic backstory for this character/creature in the comment below. It must be related to MD, and connected to at least one player/place/alliance...etc. Try not to repeat ideas that others used, I'll pick the one I like most (after one week) and give you this avatar as reward, or a piece of custom artwork for your in-game item.(optional)

I'll quote from ann. 4626: There is a feature that i wanted to add for many years, but i waited for artworks and never managed to get/do some that i liked. The weirdest things bug me - and that glowing thing with letters in it that stays between 'boxes' does. Let's design something that Mur will (hopefully) like and put in the interface. There are no rewards for this, I have not been asked to do this and chances are we'll fail. However, it's your chance to design an interface thingie. Here's my idea:

I, MAG THE (self proclaimed) KNIGHT OF BACON, AM HUNGRY. I NEED YOU TO COOK THE MOST DELICIOUS, FLAVOURFUL AND LUXURIOUS DISH MAGICDUEL HAS TO OFFER. YOU WILL HAVE TO DESCRIBE YOUR DISH AND PROVIDE ME WITH AN IMAGE, I WANT TO KNOW WHAT I AM SERVED AFTER ALL I AM HUNGRY BUT I KNOW THAT PERFECTION NEEDS TIME SO I WILL WAIT UNTIL END OF DECEMBER. tldr: cook a dish and make it MD themed describe what you made provide a picture (with name and date please) deadline end of december looking for judges and sponsors rewards to be announced

I've decided to clean up and remove all my Alt accounts (after almost 9 years, ended up with 30 accounts, hundreds creatures, thousands fights, tons of violations and countless memories), shame on me. All their items and creatures goes to the treasury which i'm pretty sure will be used for the good sake of MD(?). But, i still got some classic common creatures (sorry but all those high-end-fancy-strawberry-ice-cream-creatures are goes to the other way ahaha) I can't sell them and i'm not the Complicated-quest-guru kind of player, so i think i'll just give them away. If you need one of them, let me know.. In your most funny and absurd way. *wink* Angie…

I don't know how crazy Santa is about photographs, but I'm sure he doesn't mind an album to reminisce the good ol' days. So let's do that - the task is to create such an album (6 images minimum) with Santa Claus visiting MD scenes (ex. making a victory sign in the Drachorn Cave, unloading gifts at GoE etc). What he does in those scenes is up to you (just...keep it decent). Submissions will be posted in this thread, and votes (up or down, love or...well, we don't have hate) will count. Last day for submission is 25th Dec. post will be updated with rewards here be answers to (your) questions regarding this quest

I will run this on the 24th or 25th, depending on your preference. It will be a forum race in finding the original scene among scenes that have additions. More specifically, for set 1of images (name_1) you have to find the scene that was modified; for set 2 (name_2) you have to find the scene that wasn't modified whatsoever and for the third set you have to find the scene that was modified. rewards be here sample here

Since I am the kind of guy that gets inspiration from everything, reading about the Golden Lily Operation gave me an idea for a contest (what can I say, god works in mysterious ways...). This will probably run on the 24th (or maybe even 25th), in the evening. The story is that Santa has hidden his sack somewhere and now has to dig to get it. The exact location of the sack, however, is unknown, so he has to dig and dig...and dig. The participants will be divided into two teams, given five minutes to decide on the route and the initial position of Santa and then go for it, announcing number and letter (example: square B2). Between the moves, each team has a 2 mi…

(post will be updated with rewards, stay tuned) We have, more or less, an idea about Santa's residence in the outside realm, but what about MD? Where does Santa live all year round, to conveniently appear _only_ at Christmas? What does he do all year, how does he prepare for Xmas, does he live alone or in company, how does he keep himself hidden? Write a short essay (350 words minimum) in which you answer these questions, adding whatever you feel necessary to describe MD's Santa Claus. The last day for submission (by forum PM to yours truly) is 24th Dec. here be rewards here be added answers to whatever questions you have about t…

Here's another challenge to those of you who're creative. Fuse Santa with another (in)famous character! (of some antiquity - say, Robin Hood or Emperor Nero) Shortly describe the new persona (or draw it), also detailing what he/she does and add one or two stories involving the character (100-200 words for the stories). Last day of submission: 24th Dec. Post your character here, because prizes will be awarded based on forum reputation only. UP votes will count more than DOWN votes. (will update the thread with prizes)
