NeoQuest II

NeoQuest II is a role playing game within Neopets created by Mr. Insane, sequel to NeoQuest I. In this version, a new battle system was implemented, along with the use of more party members (a total of 4).

Plot Summary

Following the same medieval and "in the past" feel, users control the role of Rohane who is presented as the son of a knight in Trestin of Meridell, but in actuallity is a captain of a spaceship, and stuck in a hologram simulation. While playing, Rohane travels through 4 other lands (Terror Mountain, The Lost Desert, The Haunted Woods, and Faerieland) meeting his other crew members (Mipsy, Talinia, and Velm) along the way, who are locked within simulation booths as well. Together, they try to regain control of the hijacked space ship.

Chapter 1

Ramtor, King Skarl's advisor, takes the throne of Meridell from him and puts him in his tower's dungeon, and slowly begins to take over the land. In Trestin, Rohane notices this change in the land and decides to head out on an adventure with his Father's sword.

Chapter 2

Rohane arrives in Terror Mountain, where the paths across the mountain become clogged with snow, making it difficult to traverse, and monsters are swarming all the passes. After defeating Leximp and helping a city of Chias, he runs into Talinia, who joins him. After defeating Kolvars they eventually come to the Snowager, who was trapped by Scuzzy. After defeating Scuzzy the Snowager is released, and he's revealed to be the overseer program and, and the snow the clogged data routes of the space ships computer.

Chapter 3

A sandstorm rages in the Lost Desert, and Princess Vyssa seeks a relic, the Medallion of the Wind, designed to control the weather. After locating the pieces of the device, it must be taken to Zakharukh's Pyramid, for the weather to be restored.

Chapter 4

In the Haunted Woods, the sun is stuck in the sky all day long, making it difficult for the Wood's residents - including ghosts and vampires - to go about their business. The residents of the Haunted Woods are quick to point the finger at each other and the player must narrow down the unlikely suspects one by one.

Chapter 5

Groups of Dark Faeries are rebelling in Faerieland, coupled with an invasion of mercenaries and monsters. Many of the cloud paths are destroyed, and the Faerie Palace is overrun by the forces of a dragon calling himself King Terask.

Difficulty

Basic gameplay, where the boss's hitpoints and difficulty are lowest.

Evil

Monster hit points are raised %50 and Boss's 25% of those in Normal, and their strength and defences against certain skills is also increased, requiring the user to be a level or 2 higher to defeat monsters than they did in Normal.

Trivia

• As of August 2006, there are a total of 61 NeoQuest II related items, 25 of which are Stamps specifically for the NeoQuest II section of the Stamp Album.

• Prior to finishing the first chapter of the game, the user is led to believe defeating Ramtor is the game's only task, and is given no clue (except for the circuit board tiles that are seen throughout the Act 1 world) the world is a simulation within a spaceship. The revelation surprised many users, as many were expecting a simple story set in a medieval land.
