Detailed Walkthrough

The Stinger

The Fighter Quester says:

"You can call me (Fighter Quester's name). Normally we only give jobs to guild members. But you show promise (player's name). I tell ya what. I got a request to dispose of a giant scorpion. Do that and I'll see if the guild will overlook your reputation. Is that a deal?"

Accept

The Fighter Quester goes on:

"You got guts (player's first name), I'll give ya that. Apparently this scorpion escaped from someone's personal collection. Right now it's corner [sic] in (building). Kill the thing today and I'll speak well of you."

Decline

The Fighter Quester answers:

"I try to be nice and look what it gets me. Just get outta here."

Hunting the Scorpion

This is a very simple task; go to the named building in the current town and kill the scorpion within. Be careful, as scorpion attacks can cause paralysis or disease. The target building can be any type. Shops, temples, and the like are not difficult to locate using the map, but you may have to ask around if the location is a residence.

When you kill the giant scorpion, the following message pops up:

The giant scorpion is dead.

Reward

Return to the Fighter Quester after killing the scorpion, and he says:

"I guess you aren't the weak kneed jellyfish everyone says you are. I'll make sure the right people hear about this."
