Been playing a while, and I just read the post on the upcoming monster totems. Really cool addition to the game and it had me thinking of what else they can do with them and the idea of a repeatable quest came to mind.
What if, along with these monster totems, a mysterious stranger arrived to Cairn that was very curious about your adventures around Cairn? This stranger would only bother talking to you if you were a very experienced adventurer and had many stories to tell (be level 100). After a player hits level 100 he will be able to talk to the stranger and either tell him a story or perhaps listen to the stranger’s story. Either way he will reward you with a peculiar item (an offering) for your time, this item will have flavor text giving the player a hint of where they should look. The player will have to hunt down a specific totem and give the offering to then summon a nemesis boss (it would be cool to have unique bosses for this, but lets be real). The nemesis you spawn will depend on what offering the stranger gives you. If you do not have the nemesis unlocked you wont be able to summon it.
Now the part that makes it repeatable. Once the player finishes the quest the stranger tells them to stop by again, or to come back once they have more stories to tell, something along those lines. What if once a player hits level 100 and completes the stranger quest for the first time they unlock their exp bar again?..and to reactivate the quest you need to fill it up again and visit the stranger.
