Quest Actions

Just for fun, thought I'd list some of the actions that can be applied for a given quest step, once the requirements have been met:

InformationDisplays a dialog with information in it. This is a good way to inform the player what is happening.
ItemAdd an item to the character inventory, or take one away. Allows for choosing items from a group.
AttributeModify Fame, Notoriety, or Gold. Can either add or subtract points/gold.
HirelingAdd or remove a hireling.
CompanionAdd or remove a monster ally.
MinorCharacterAdd or remove a Minor Character. Must create Minor Characters BEFORE creating this reward.
TeleportTeleport the character to a new location. Must create a QuestLocation BEFORE creating this reward.
RelationshipSetSet the relationship of the character with a particular native group, or all natives in the clearing.
RelationshipChangeModify the relationship of the character with a particular native group, or all natives in the clearing.
QuestCompleteTells RealmSpeak that the character has completed this quest.
QuestFailedTells RealmSpeak that the character has failed this quest.
SummonGuardianFor a specific quest location, summon the treasure site guardian (if any)
ScareMonstersRandomly move all monsters in current clearing to other clearings either in the same tile or other tiles, as defined.
AlterHideChange questing character's hide status (from hidden to unhidden, or the other way around).
MarkDenizenMark a particular denizen for later reference. This is useful if you want to make sure a character kills (for example) a particular monster.
StripInventoryRemoves ALL inventory and (optionally) gold from the character.
LostInventoryToLocationAll future lost inventory from this quest will go to a specified location.
LostInventoryToDefaultAll future lost inventory from this quest will go to wherever they started the game, including treasures. This is default setting.

I should mention that there are actually more actions planned, than those listed above, but these are the ones I have going so far.  This list also covers everything I need to complete the Dragon Slayer quest.
