Taking swift aim with his BOW and ARROWS, Questor’s quick feet and sharpshooting skills make him a formidable ranged attacker. Questor can release a volley of arrows upon the monster hordes, charge up a single arrow for a lethal shot, or use explosive tipped arrows to clear out a pocket of attackers! The elf can also utilize a rolling tumble to quickly dodge attacks and the various traps that litter the dungeons.
Personality and Background[]
Questor the Elf fills the staple 'Elf' or 'Ranger' class found in most Gauntlet games. Driven by a lust for gold and a more well hidden sense of adventure he joins the other heroes in the Gauntlet. He isn't very serious, making jokes and snarky comments throughout the entire adventure. He is not above cheating as he once was willing to walk away from the final boss fight if provided the promised gold.
Questor seems to posses a fleeting knowledge of the fourth wall. Besides quoting 'With great power comes great responsibility' from Spiderman and playing it off as 'an old elvish saying', he can be caught saying, "Where am I? Oh right, Gauntlet!" upon returning from death. Questor is also the only one to reference characters in the Gauntlet universe that cannot be found inside the Gauntlet itself. Such characters include Sven, who Questor seems to have lent 10 gold coins to, and Bellik, who runs a sauna.
Weapons[]
With the rework weapons were given their own unique abilities, some weapons were added and some removed. Here follows an up-to-date list of weapons in-game for the Elf.
Fashioned from the bones of Gohlag the Beastruler, this bow was long in the possession of Gerok the Beastmaster, who was slain at the battle of Crag Peak by Rulehk, the Beastmonger.
This is the first arrowhead that Questor ever made.
Ultimate Arrow
A powerful shot that pierces through anything, dealing massive damage.
Enchanted Willow Branch
75,000
The willow tree to the elves symbolizes the resistance against the outer world. In the deepest forests there are forces who would destroy any outsider rather than risking corruption.
Spirit Guardians
Summons three forest spirits that circle around the Elf, damaging any enemy they touch.
Dryad's Flute
100,000
The song of the dryad is a mysterious thing, playing tricks with your mind.
Dryad's Song
Heals Allies and Hides them from enemies for a duration.
There is a legend among elves about a lone invidual known as "The Wanderer" who fights injustice wherever it may show itself. This masked vigilante is said to steal from the rich and invest the money promising small business ventures.
Questing around the countryside is hard work and wearing good, warm clothing is important. Jumping around and rolling while wearing a cape is harder than it looks, though.
As with all Iron Branch equipment, the "iron" details are usually just darkened mithril, since among elves, it is easier to come across and much lighter to carry.
