THE DARA THIEF ( 07/05/14 - 13/05/14 | SUCCESS )
WRITE-UP: Tasked to retrieve the Dara from Unseelie territory, Team Grey went into the pits of Caer Scima's dungeons and faced a very ugly monster in the meantime.
OBJECTIVE: Retrieve the Dara and make it back alive.
REWARD: Peanut butter sandwich ( eaten ), necklace, bracelet, and shield. Plus a long field trip with Clarisse.
SUMMARY: As a part of Team Grey, beneath the leadership of Clarisse La Rue, he and a bunch of other nerds go to retrieve the Dara. On Day 2, he meets Mako and Naga; on Day 4, he and Backbiter save Clarisse's ass. he is personally responsible for hacking at the stone wall of the Caer Scima dungeon to retrieve the Dara Sword. He became lost in Unseelie territory with Clarisse ( LINK ) and made a few jokes in the meantime.

THE BATTLE OF THE SILMARIL ( date | SUCCESS )
WRITE-UP: Clarisse is dumb and starts a war.
OBJECTIVE: Ensure his side survives.
REWARD: A scar on his back from a werewolf.
SUMMARY: Mako had come to Luke in hopes he could deter Clarisse from inciting an unnecessary war ( LINK ), to which Luke said no. Knowing Clarisse wouldn't listen to him, the battle sparked into a raging catastrophe that only ended in lives lost, blood spilled, and a lesson he doubts was learned at all. He went as back-up for Clarisse; despite not agreeing with her motivations, he still had her back — and werewolf got his. ( DROPPED DUE TO OOC CIRCUMSTANCES )

THE MOON THIEF ( 03/10/14 - 13/10/14 | SUCCESS )
WRITE-UP: High-Queen Solais falls ill; High-King Ridire requests his court to save the moon to restore her back to health.
OBJECTIVE: Get the moon, save the queen.
REWARD: Golden Knight of the Cadre, the Staff of Hermes teleporting, and High-Queen Solais wanting to take him to prom. (ღ˘⌣˘ღ) SEER QUEST.
SUMMARY: After ditching Gendry and his crew in Troichbenn, Luke immediately set to task to retrieve the moon for High-King Ridire. Unknown to Percy, he calls Luke in a bid to goad him into helping, rendering him only as his ability rather than his own person. He runs into Hermione before he takes to the caves to only find The Outsider holding the moon as a rat and then a rooster. Letting it free, Luke chases after it to corner the moon in a cave. With the help of many other shardbearers, he captures it.

Returning it to High-King Ridire, he asks the monarch for a favour — accept the Seelie as family in order to strengthen morale, as Luke had feared he would fall into the darkness that had consumed him five years ago and didn't want any other Seelie shardbearer to feel as alone and lost as he had.

DRABBY FOXES ( 24/10/14 - his permanent death. | FOREVER ONGOING )
WRITE-UP: The Black Shuck and Luke do a trade of requests.
OBJECTIVE: Find the rest of the Drabkeeper's foxes in the years he spends in Allaidh Darach. Keep them close and safe.
REWARD: A harem of fluff balls who are incredibly intelligent and perhaps may even be able to assist him at times.
SUMMARY: Luke asks the Black Shuck if he can release George and Martha from the ancient Greek magic that binds them to the staff and to the minds of demigods. In return, Black Shuck asked Luke to find and care for the Drabkeeper's foxes. It's not a quest, but a personal favour that will last an entire lifetime.
NOTE: It is not a quest that can gain rank, but it is one Luke takes to as if it is a quest assigned to him by someone of incredible status.

CEO SOLAIS COMMUNICATIONS ( 01/01/15 - 15/01/15 | SUCCESS )
WRITE-UP: Luke talks a lot.
OBJECTIVE: MESSENGER SERVICE! Luke will be asked by Solais to assist Lancelot, the Seelie Marshall, and Clarisse, one of Ridire's Goldencloak champions, to communicate swiftly with the various arms of the army, and to use his special skills to identify items which may help their efforts as preparations get underway for conflict!
REWARD: Luke will be given a formal position by Solais in relation to his work as a communications expert for the Seelie!
SUMMARY: Luke assists both Sir Lancelot and Clarisse in communicating and gathering a variety of intel on Unseelie movements. ( PLEASE NOTE ALL RELEVANT LINKS ARE IN THE POST. )

This is an ongoing quest for Luke, as he continues to gather intel using his animal friends and eavesdropping on private conversations.

THE DRABWURLD'S NEXT TOP SEER ( 11/01/15 | SUCCESS )
WRITE-UP: Korra and Luke were tasked by High-King Ridire to seek a Seer within the Seelie court who was strong enough to possess his Sight.
OBJECTIVE: Find individuals among the Seelie who are known to access/have visions, particularly of the future! One individual from the Seelie has been invited to share in Ridire's Sight.
REWARD: --
SUMMARY: After a few months of being tasked this quest by High-King Ridire, with a few reminders of it given to him by Calliope ( LINK ) and discussing it with George and Martha ( HANDWAVED ), Korra informs him that she's leaving Caer Glaem for a little while. Knowing a war is on the horizon, thanks to his four gossiping cows informing him of such, Luke decides to advertise for a Seer now instead of waiting until they're in the thickest part of one of many subsequent wars. Interviewing each one, he wishes to ensure that they know it's dangerous — even though Halcyon Green hadn't died from a vision, he had died because he had acted on a vision.

CULT OF THE FURRIES ( 2702 | SUCCESS )
WRITE-UP: Luke investigates the Cult of the Fox.
OBJECTIVE: Finding out everything that one can about this force will be key in the upcoming years, which means that shardbearers (or shardless, or natives) need information now. Don't die.
REWARD: 100 gold pieces from Waver, very key information that will come into play in the future, and a book one of his foxes wished to thieve from Waver. .5 OF THE WAY TO 4 STARS!
SUMMARY: Luke uses his animals to investigate the cult.

CORRUPTING LEO 101 ( 21/06, 2703 | SUCCESS )
WRITE-UP: All is fair in politics and crime, and in this case, both are to be combined. Seamus Cassidy Ferguson III, a vocal opponent to the Lord of Redgate's policies and an all-around jackass is far too wealthy for his own good, and it's time to take care of that problem. Break into Seamus's house and steal from his collection of jewels. While you're there, take any records that might be politically useful.
REWARD: A portion of the take, and a token with a very subtle ansuz marking on it that will allow Rhys to contact your character again. (May lead to potential recruitment into the Ansuz Crime Ring after further involvement.)
SUMMARY: Luke travels to Redgate to steal a few jewels from a dude considered to be a jackass. He ropes Leo into the fold and robs a bitch mortal style. SECRET MISSION ( ... )
WRITE-UP: Rumours have begun to spread about an Unseelie outpost in La Llorona, well hidden and intended to stop Seelie using the fairy ring there. If this is true, then anyone using it is at risk. Travel north and see what truth can be found in this, how big the outpost is and how well protected. It may well be too difficult to take control of so close to other Unseelie posts, but any damage done will happen weaken their cause and make ventures north easier in the future.
REWARD: Something cool that I cannot remember right now but it involved evil little things that were loyal to Luke.
SUMMARY: Luke blows up the La Llorona outpost.
boons.}
CONVERSE SHOES
Several pairs of nondescript black converse shoes, they differ from the ordinary shoe as they possess little wings on the sides. These shoes are capable of lifting anyone into the air and allowing them to fly. Often, the shoe is activated by the word Maia. This was a Hermes invention.

BACKBITER
An incredibly powerful sword forged of two metals, it is capable of slaying both mortal and monster alike. It was later melted down and reforged into Kronos' scythe. This item was booned by Jason Grace and given to Luke as a gift.

NECKLACE
One, rosewood-fashioned and velvet-lined box, will hold a necklace with a small pendant of a closed eye. when lifted to the light, the eye will open, reflecting the light in a steady beam to lead him the way to whatever it is he seeks.

BRACELET
a stamped-metal bracelet, fashioned in the manner of two spread wings; when worn, it will help him discern truth from lie, and will flex and tighten about his wrist just perceptibly to warn him of treachery.

SHIELD
appearing as a tray, when turned over, is revealed to be a shield; fashioned from the familiar scales of ladon and set in a radial pattern. it is small and strangely light, little better than a buckler; but when he lifts it to protect himself from blows, the scales will shiver and stretch. when worn and raised in his defense, the shield may grow as long as he is tall, and just as wide, never seeming to gain more weight, and will defend as well against magic and the elements as blows of strength.

PEANUT BUTTER SANDWICH
given a peanut butter sandwich of his mother's, this is now eaten. it was important to him and often an item he remembers.

THE STAFF OF HERMES
appearing as a long staff with two snakes intertwined and a pair of wings at the very top, it is intricately carved. the two snakes, red and blue, speak; george and martha assist the staff with its turning items to gold, stone, and disintegrating monsters and other objects. it can take the many forms, from a phone, pen, notepad, and iphone. as of samhain, george and martha are free to roam from the staff, the staff teleports, and is able to work without the two snakes upon it.

DIARY
given to him by halcyon green, this diary contains entries (written out of order and on random pages) from a fourteen year-old luke. he continues to write to hal while in the drabwurld.

PHOTOGRAPH OF MAY
before she had met hermes, luke possesses a photograph of his mother he has slipped into the pages of his diary. this was booned by nico di angelo.

FOUR GOSSIPING COWS
