GUILD CONTRACT: COMMISSIONING TEST #002-TG
ISSUED BY: Officer Excella, Chief Logistics Officer

I. OBJECTIVE

Construction of the Adventurer’s Guild Training Grounds has entered its second phase. The four Crystal Wardstones recovered during Construction Project #001-TG have now been installed around the arena and successfully connected to its protective enchantments.

Guild arcanists have also completed an experimental apparatus known as the Echo-Loom. Using recorded information and magically preserved creature specimens, the Echo-Loom is designed to produce temporary combat recreations known as Arcane Echoes.

These Echoes resemble actual monsters and are capable of reproducing their movement, instincts, physical attacks, and certain supernatural abilities. They are not living creatures, possess no souls, and should completely unravel when defeated.

The Guild requires a group of capable adventurers to enter the unfinished arena and fight the Arcane Echoes for data.

II. ADDITIONAL NOTES

Successful completion of this commissioning test will allow the Guild to open the Training Grounds’ first permanent service: the Arena Bestiary.

The Arena Bestiary will initially contain only a small collection of common creatures. Additional creature profiles may later be unlocked when adventurers recover monsters encountered in the wilderness and deliver them to the Guild for examination.

Once properly registered, an approved creature may be recreated by the Echo-Loom for future training exercises.

“The Guild has been assured that the manifested creatures are not alive. Unfortunately, their lethality remain extremely convincing. Please conduct yourselves accordingly.”
