Monster tasks

Standing orders for hunting: kill so many of one creature and collect experience and gold. There is nobody to talk to — tasks are taken and handed in from the Tasks window.

Forty-eight tasks, graded from easy to extreme. No level is asked of you.
Only kills made after you take the task count. Dropping a task puts its count back to zero.
Each task can be done once a day, either as a daily or as a weekly: once collected, it can be taken again after the next server save.
In the Tasks window every task has a Daily button and a Weekly button, and the tasks you are carrying show in two blocks, daily and weekly.
The daily task is always the minimum in the table. Five daily tasks a day, at most, counting the daily ones you are carrying.
The weekly task is always five times the minimum; experience, gold and points grow in the same proportion. Weekly tasks do not count in the five a day.
Handing in a weekly task spends one of seven weekly charges; dropping it spends nothing. Each charge comes back seven days after it was spent.
Hunting together counts for everyone: every player who hits the creature gets the kill.
The reward is experience and gold. If your backpack cannot take the coins, nothing is paid and nothing is charged — the task waits.
Every task also pays task points, and how many depends on its difficulty: the harder the task, the more points.

Points you can carry and trade

Your points are a tally on your character, so they cannot be handed to anyone. Elandor, who runs the points shop, turns that tally into items and back, in the words you already use at the bank:

Say balance and he tells you how many task points and delivery points you hold.
Say withdraw 50 task points to take them in hand as items, or withdraw all delivery points.
Say deposit 50 task points to put them back on the tally.
One item is one point, and neither direction charges a fee. Task points and delivery points are different items and one never becomes the other.
Points in hand buy nothing from him — only the tally does. Deposit them before you shop.
He checks your backpack space and your weight before handing anything over, and only takes from the tally what actually reached you.

Points in hand are an item like any other, so they can be sold, traded and given to another player — and lost the way any item is lost.

Every creature, from the first task to the last.
