Intro to Quests
I'm going to assume you've heard of Homestuck before, right? Big webcomic thing, very popular.
Well in the early days of that comic, it ran using a "suggestion box" in which users would suggest actions for the
current focused character to do which in turn would progress the story along.
Now, imagine that but lasting for an entire run, and you have a rough idea of how most quests work.
Ruby Quest was the first quest done by Weaver, beginning its run in late 2008 up until early 2009. Being the
first of its kind, it was pretty rough around the edges (especially near the start but settled into its tone by
the second chapter) which Weaver has publicly acknowledged since.
Once Ruby Quest had finished, Weaver would begin two new quests: Nan Quest, being a spiritual successor to and evolution of
Ruby Quest and its horror style, being generally more fleshed out and Dive Quest, a completely different direction with
more fantasy-oriented elements. (I personally cannot speak as much on Dive Quest, as I've yet to dive into it myself [pun not
intended].)
Content Warnings
Ruby Quest has heavy elements of horror, blood, gore and body horror through out its run as well as suggestive
elements near its start (due to the aformentioned roughness during the first chapter or so).
Nan Quest, like Weaver's previous quest, shares elements of horror, blood and gore but with less body
horror and more paranormal and religious horror.
I personally cannot speak as much on Dive Quest but expect less horror elements then Ruby & Nan, possibly with
more common suggestive elements.
Ruby Quest
- [Little to no Rawness] Let's Read Ruby
Quest by Voice Over Nexus, a YouTube read-along by the same people who do "Let's Read Homestuck"
- [Little to no Rawness] Basic HTML Port by Evil
Corporation, a basic barebones way to read Ruby Quest
- [Little to no Rawness] MSPFA Port by tangy, a mirror of Ruby Quest
(although images are broken for a period of this port)
- [Some Rawness] Flash Port by TekStation, hosted by
Mozai. Has some special effects and also other user suggestions
- [Full Rawness (18+)] Original
threads archived by sup/tg/, everything before 2018 is associated in some form with Ruby Quest. Contains
lots of fan discussions and fanart (with NSFW. BE WARNED!)
There's also some wiki pages on TVTropes
and a backup of the 1d4chan wiki page for Ruby Quest which
has a lot of old stuff including a heavy amount of the fanart and theories uploaded into discussion threads which
may have not been archived. (1d4chan has NSFW content, so be warned!).
Nan Quest
- [Little to no Rawness] MSPFA Port by tangy, a mirror of Nan
Quest (which has working images this time!)
- [Some Rawness] HTML Port hosted by Mozai, it's basically like
Evil Corporation's port of Ruby Quest but it also hosts user suggestions of varying suggestivity.
- [Full Rawness (18+)] Original threads still up on QuestDen
where it was originally hosted, same warning with Ruby Quest's original threads applied here too.
There's also some wiki pages on TVTropes.
Dive Quest
- [Some Rawness] HTML Port also hosted by Mozai, atlthough
these ports haven't been touched since Dive Quest had it's hiatus on 2016 so you'll be missing out on the most
recent chapters.
- [Full Rawness (18+)] Original threads up and hosted on
QuestDen. As Dive Quest is still on going, this is sadly the only real place you can find the most recent
chapters of Dive Quest.
One last piece of advice: if you're trying to avoid NSFW content then be careful when directly searching stuff
like Google Images for quest content, ESPECIALLY if you're looking for Weaver's stuff directly, since his main
content is NSFW. That's all from me, I'll probably come to revise this page later on, but good luck reading!
