Information
Former Captain of the Guard
Marcus Habitus Valerius is the former Captain of the Guard under the rule of Imperious within the kingdom of Cimerora. When Imperious was traitorously ousted by a splinter group of his own men, Marcus Valerius fought alongside him. He continues to work for the deposed ruler in a small fortress outside the walls of his old kingdom.
Prior to Introduction
You are a loyal soldier and your work has been most helpful to Imperious and myself. I have nothing left for you at this time, however if ever that changes, rest assured that you will be the first soldier that I seek. I am in your debt.
Initial Contact
I am Marcus Valerius, former Captain of the Guard to Imperious. Imperious has been betrayed by some of his own followers and ousted as the ruler of Cimerora. I stand alongside him because I know that he is a great and noble ruler. He will one day regain his authority over his kingdom and I will help him crush those who seek to keep him from his rule.
Greeting
- Greetings.
- Hail.
- Good day.
- I am at your service.
Too Busy
You insult me. I cannot use you if others have claimed your time before me. Go then. Complete your tasks and return to me when you may properly dedicate your time to our cause.

Missions
Accept Marcus' task to prove yourself
Briefing
It is my blessing to meet you, sir/lady. I am not as gifted with words as the Senator, but I need your help so I will be brief.
I need soldiers who fight to keep the seed of all our power from a very dangerous foe, a demigod from Hades who seeks to steal this power from humanity and use it for himself and his ilk. These are dark times here in Cimerora and my allies are few. To prove to me that you are a person whom I may trust, I would have you fulfill a task for me.
Note: Marcus will use sir or lady depending on the character's gender.
Mission Acceptance
Excellent... Character, is it? An unfamiliar name, I admit. No matter. I am a soldier, not a poet.
Your task is simple. Romulus' men have been using one of the caves hereon the peninsula as a "meeting ground" of sorts. Inside, a man by the name of Boss Name riles up those traitorous dogs just before a raid on our post.
I have information that tells me he is gearing his men up for another one soon. I need you to stop him, and his men, before they attack us again.
You have 45 minutes to complete this mission.
Unnecessary Solicitation
I would hunt him down like the dog that he is, but I cannot leave my post. My first order is to keep our Emperor safe and manage our men. Do this for me, Character, and - I beg you - be quick. Time grows short.
Mission Objective(s)
Ale, sweat, and the cries of men gearing up for mayhem. This is, most definitely, the place. Time for a little smackdown, ancient-style.
- Defeat Boss Name - 45:00
- Defeat Boss Name
Boss Name has been defeated. Return to Marcus Valerius for further instructions.
You have successfully completed your task.

Ambush! There is an ambush by Cimeroran Traitors at the start of the mission, and another some time before you reach Boss Name. |

Debriefing
You bested Boss Name? I knew my faith was not misplaced, Character. I do now believe I can trust you with my most important tasks. That is, if you are willing.
Accept task to destroy shadow crystals
Briefing
As you may know, Romulus has allied with the Dark Ones, creatures from the very depths of Hades. They lurk in the shadows of the surrounding caves, harnessing the power of their shadow crystals. If we can destroy these crystals we can gain a tactical advantage in the war against Romulus.
Mission Acceptance
You must find these shadow crystals and destroy them, Character. I know now what foul manner of magic they contain, but I do know that they are the source of the Dark Ones' incredible power.
You have 60 minutes to complete this task.
Unnecessary Solicitation
Time is not on our side, Character. Not only do the Dark Ones use these crystals for power, but I believe that they have magical ability to move his men from one place to another!
Mission Objective(s)
The task is clear. Destroy the crystals.
- Destroy the shadow crystals - 60:00
- 3 shadow crystals to destroy
You have successfully completed your task.

Accept task to retrieve Surname's remains
Briefing
Romulus has sent his men to enact a most heinous and treacherous act. In the night, his men broke into the sacred tomb of one of our townsfolk' ancestors and stole his remains! This act is so distasteful that I struggle even now to speak it aloud to you. You must return with those remains so that the family may set them to rest once more.
The Surname family are most devastated by this act. The men see this act of desecration and their morale plummets. I worry that if this continues, the war will be lost before they even enter another battlefield.

Remains of ancestors dead thousands of years once rested peacefully in this family cavern. No more.
