a living nightmare	Kineko was haunted by a living nightmare who took the form of her former ninja master Geneshiro, he was caught using a dream catcher that was given to the players by the Souix as part of a reward for rescueing their villiage.
a piece of the moon(at least 2 pounds)	Uniqua teleported there and got it.

Quest status: Complete Results: Vidar is in his body and it ended satisfactory.

Quest for Payment:

Technically this was more of an adventure or side quest then an actual quest, but what the hey. The group needed to find a history of the world for thoth in order for him to perform the spell to help Vidar. The group sought out the help of a Paradox Shaman. In return for the shaman's help the group needed to dispose of a necromancer that had taken up residents on a native burial ground and was using the deceased for slave labor. The catch was the group was not to harm the bodies. After some careful negotiations on the part of Artemis the undead necromancer and his ghost wife left peacefully, and the paradox shaman agreed to help.

Quest status: Complete Results: Paradox Shaman agreed to help.

Quest: Art's Prophecy:

Artemis had been born with a prophecy and shortly after joining the group the signs began to immerge. After seeking out the last four signs(the last one found him) he completed the prophecy. The signs and prophecy were:

Prophecy

Translation

There will be born a child of half
Who bears the slayers mark
And when these signs shall come to pass
The dagger shall come from the dark.

Children born unknown to this world who are not of it
Powerful forces deciding the fate of a soul
A machina destroyed being reborn
As an unwilling slays the undead
The unknown hammer shall shall strike an important blow

Enemy's shall wield forces of nature
While the young fall for the old
A rash of weddings 3
The immune shall be changed
while two healers work in slavery.

Then three loves shall come
who are not what they seem
and the chosen shall see his end
before his time

When the chosen has seen these signs
his blood will bring the dagger
No matter where the slayer runs, nor where he hides
the comet shall find and kill
and rend a path besides.

Quest: The Hearts of Knights or To Free a Bound People

While the head knight spent time in Vidar's body, he used vidar's power to create a race of people(the Sol' Gneriad) to act as servents for the knights. Each knight has their own amount of Sol' Gneriad which can only be freed when the knights are killed. The problem is the only way to kill the knights is to destroy their hearts, which are hidden throughout the megaverse. Another hassle is that these people have a great deal of hidden power and are under each knights complete control, to the point that they will avenge the felled knight, at least initialy. The following info was obtained by Ku'Gnel in a question for question trade.
