Quests come in 4 lines, and every quest below links to its row on the quests index.
- an auto-advancing main story
- a scripted tutorial
- repeatable guild "Expedition Resolution" goals
- side quests from named NPCs
The item rewards of the NPC chains are paid by the follow-up dialogue, and every reward shown here is read from that event data.
Main story (Crawling Doom)
The main chain advances automatically as you play rather than being handed out by an NPC. Its last step is killing the Red Monster Rat, the scenario's finale boss.
The last row, Establish a Base, is the one-step main quest of the Expedition Founding scenario start instead.

Guild rank quests (Expedition Resolution)
The 65 "Expedition Resolution" goals also run as quests. They are repeatable settlement targets that push your clan rank forward rather than granting items:
- stockpile resources
- build rooms of a given quality
- complete research
- keep your settlers' mood up
- level your units
- kill elite targets
Their conditions and rewards are on the Expedition Resolution page, and the quests index lists them under their own heading.
Endrossi (hunter, Veil of Silence)
An upset-looking hunter who is also a merchant. At the end of her chain she is a recruit.
She offers her first three hunts only while you are in Veil of Silence, and the Elder Gloth hunt only in Festering Burrow.
Each hunt is followed by a report quest, and the hunt's reward is paid when you talk to her again. The turn-in of her last hunt brings her to your settlement.
| Step | Quest | Task | Reward |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Hunt Mawmurk | Hunt Mawmurk | 1 |
| 2 | Talk to Endrossi | Interact with Endrossi | - |
| 3 | Hunt White Mawmurk | Hunt the White Mawmurk | 8 |
| 4 | Talk to Endrossi | Interact with Endrossi | - |
| 5 | Hunt Alpha Acid Slogel | Hunt the Alpha Acid Slogel | 10 |
| 6 | Talk to Endrossi | Interact with Endrossi | - |
| 7 | Hunt Elder Gloth | Hunt the Elder Gloth | |
| 8 | Talk to Endrossi | Interact with Endrossi | - |
The quest table also defines Talk to Endrossi (Recruit Endrossi), started by no event in this build.
Where to find her: Endrossi also spawns on Festering Burrow's safe floor, the Golem-memorial camp. That spawn requires the Giant Stone Golem kill record.
Her Mawmurk, White Mawmurk and Alpha Acid Slogel offers require being in Veil of Silence, so take those there (Safe Floors). Only the Elder Gloth offer requires Festering Burrow.
Xenon (scholar)
A hunt-and-gather loop. Each study quest is offered in the field and followed by a report quest back to Xenon, and the study's turn-in pays Tech Books.
The first two studies are offered in Veil of Silence, the last two in Festering Burrow.
| Step | Quest | Task | Reward |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Insect Study 1 | Investigate the Acid Bug | 2 |
| 2 | Talk to Xenon | Investigate the Acid Bug - Interact with Xenon | - |
| 3 | Insect Study 2 | Investigate the Spore Bug | 2 |

Perion (scholar, Festering Burrow)
A scholar "who mutters strange words as if possessed". He hands out two investigations, each followed by a report quest, and after the second report he joins your settlement.
The two objects pay out on their own, through their event, on top of the quest rewards below.
