An awesome oak tree grows here, old and sturdy. Yet unseen eyes peek out from the thickest branches, warily scanning the intentions of passers-by as they come near the tree. This tree is apparently some creature's territory. However, it is not rare that a decent traveler may be granted permission to camp here. An area of grass appears to be somewhat uneven.

You try to strike up a conversation with The head quizmaster... The head quizmaster says, 'Welcome to my Tower of Challenge. My tower is designed to test you both mentally and physically. You will be asked many questions to which the answers can all be found by using either the "help" command or the "lib search" command. Once the question is asked you will have to get the most suitable item off the ground and give it to the Quizmaster. The Battlemaster challenges are pretty much straight forward, simply talk to the Battlemaster and defeat their pet to move on. This scroll will give you other hints and bits of information that will help you to get through my tower. I suggest reading it before going on and be careful to not lose it, for it acts as a key for the door behind me. Once you are ready unlock the door and go in and speak to the first Quizmaster. Good luck and now your challenge begins! The head quizmaster gives you a scroll of hints for the Tower of Challenge. You receive a scroll of hints for the Tower of Challenge. (item is in your inventory) Here are several hints to help in getting through the Tower of Challenge. 1 You will be asked many questions to which the answers can be found by using either the "help" command or the "lib search" command. All of the answers can be found in one of these two places. 2 You will be asked a question and then you will have to get the most suitable item off the ground and give it to the Quizmaster. 3 Keep in mind that an item just needs to fit that answer to be correct. So if you were asked 'What color is the sky?' and lying on the ground was a blue marble of dexterity, a green scroll of poison and a black staff of cure light. The proper item would be the blue marble of dexterity. 4 Later on you might encounter the same three items and the question might be 'What is a thieves most important stat?, which once again would be the blue marble of dexterity. So an item might be suitable for more than one question. 5 If you answer a question wrong or log out you will have to restart the tower, which would mean that you would have to physically work your way back to that point. You would have to recall, wait on a new instance. Restart the tower and kill each of the quizmasters till you were back at the one you ended with. Then give them this scroll to reset your question, which means it will cost you 200 gold each time you are wrong. The head quizmaster It is in new condition and will last for 10 days. Overall difficulty: -5 You would feel really bad about killing The head quizmaster, as you are so much higher level. (The head quizmaster is too low level for you to get full experience.) Combat tactics: You would have little difficulty penetrating The head quizmaster's armor. Your armor would be no defense against The head quizmaster's attacks. Your ability to do damage far exceeds that of The head quizmaster. You use your knowledge of monster lore: The head quizmaster... Might not be vulnerable or resistant to spells.
