A storyline showing who made the 'first' hand-held gunpowder weapon in Tyria. It's meant to be a very hard quest, with high-level enemies and the like.
Given by: Mosi(native-american meaning 'cat') Tigerfoot(female tiger-charr), who is in a village near the Black Citadel.
It starts out with the player visiting a rather large cave outside of the city, which is full of Charr Flame Legion soldiers on the upper levels. The player has a choice upon entering. The leader of the group of Flame Legion approaches you, and you can choose to either: (a) Ask for entrance to the deeper levels of the cave. (b) Attack the Flame Legion(gaining reputation with the iron legion) (c) Turn back and leave.
If the player chooses (a): They are escorted to a crack in the ground at the back of the cave, which they can then go down. If the player has no torches, they can take one from the Flame Legion, or ask for a guide.
If the player chooses (b): They are alone on their journey to the lower levels.
If the player chooses (c): They leave the cave, but not knowing that a few of the Flame Legion are following them. Eventually, the player is ambushed by the Flame Legion. One of the Flame Legion drops a note telling the player where the location of the supposed 'first' gun is.
(a/b): You venture through the cave, slowly going down in levels. The cave is full of various enemies(large, carnivorous bats, a few spirits, 'wild' charr who aren't civilized). On the fourth floor, there will be a chest with some gold and a note telling the player where the location of the supposed 'first' gun is. If the player chose (a), the Flame Legion at the top of the cave will attack them upon leaving.
The player must then travel north of Black Citadel into another cave. The Iron Legion gives you 3-4 troops to take with you into the cave. It's full of various creatures, including undead. The player must travel through the cave, battling various enemies, until they come upon a boss(Akule Ironjaw). He's the spirit of the charr warrior who had made the first gun. Once he's defeated, the player can open a chest at the back of the cave and grab the gun. They then have another choice. They can leave it there(and keep the spirits happy), or take it, which makes the spirits unhappy. If the player takes it, they must fight their way out of the cave, being attacked by ancient charr spirits.. Once they are out of the cave, they have to make their way back to the village which Mosi is in and give her the gun. Upon reaching the village, it is attacked from all sides by spirits, starting a public quest which everybody can take part in. Once the spirits are defeated, Mosi sounds a battle-horn and a group of charr attack the village, by her command. Upon defeating them, you receive a message to go visit the leader of the Iron Legion, who gives them a reward.
If they did not take the gun and return to Mosi, they are then attacked by Mosi and a group of assassin charr who come out of(seemingly) nowhere. A resident of the town comes up to the player, telling them that Mosi had been terrorizing the village, and they are then sent to see the leader of the Iron Legion, who gives them a reward.
Just an idea I had kicking around that could(possibly) give players a sense of the possible lore of the gunpowder weapons.
