Four Chapters, excluding the Desert Beacon section at the beginning, and any ultimatum. In each chapter would be an epic boss, the current epic boses took four posts, and usually involved more than one fight. As well as an epic boss in each chapter, there'd be a legendary weapon... not the best by a long shot, maybe close, but not the best. This legendary weapon doesn't have to be obtained from the epic bosses.


Thorg's Axe, melee weapon.
Robert's Strongbow, ranged weapon.
Dragonhead Gauntlets, multi-class weapon (lol, the guantless aren't armour).
So, do we have armour? Or a magic weapon? Magic does kinda have the whole spellbook... the only other thing left really is prayer, defence and summoning.

I mean, we could have several new familiars based on the enemies... sandworms ftw? So they're covered. We could make the beacons recharge prayer with a 50% boost (since they were originally an entrance to the gods' guild, we might as well still make them godly). All that's really left now is defence. But which class? Maybe Magic, since Melee and Ranged have god-armour for the old gods; "Ancient Robes", to match the Ancient Staff. That way, it's magic and defence! And I think the difficulty of this quest matches the difficulty to obtain Bandos' and Armadyl's... kinda.

The Dragonhead Guantlets is two-handed weapon. Their design is of two Dragonheads... only of dragons more similar to Draco from Dragonheart (the film; the shape is less slender/snake-like... and more bulky). These would be like huge caricature fists! The melee attack is obvious; the ranged attack has it spit ash; and the magic attack fires small bursts of dragonfire (basically a more yellow fire blast/wave).Requires level 70-90 in all classes, and is like the Salamander (only
better).

Fog Robes (Magic and Defense, Fog Guardian)
Dragonhead Gauntlets (universal weapon, Ash Guardian)
Thorg's Axe (melee weapon, Lightning Guardian)
Robert's Strongbow (ranged weapon, Gust Guardian)
Spells... all of them (magic weapon, All Guardians)
Familiars, a few new ones. (summoning, Specific Guardians)
Prayer boost at beacons (prayer, Quest Completion)

She could create a duplicate version of Brimhaven dungeon, only, magical. And instead of chase the ticket, chase Adyna. Only... instead of failing obstacles, some just aren't there. Everytime you fail you'll here her cackle!

Then a chamber of mirrors, only the reflections in the mirrors are somewhat alive. In that, if you try to walk through, ouch! Even if the reflection is of you! The reflections should also beckon you, like; "Here, come this way!"

The final fight would be direct, only, as well as any other attacks, she'll make use of the Illusory curse. She will only use it periodically, but it has a somewhat altered effect to that which players will be able to use. When Adyna uses Illusory, she stops attacking. All her duplicates will swarm you, like in usual multi-combat, including Adyna, all appearing to be attacking you... but you'll receive no damage. If coding must, you'll have loads of 0 splashes, else, it'd be invisible nothing (this is so it's still treated as combat). When you select one of the replicas, or the real, as a target, it will retaliate and do real damage. If you choose the real Adyna, all replicas disappear, if not, only that copy does. The spell wears off itself after about 30 seconds.

With the player version of the spell, the replicas are incapable of damage entirely. If you attack a clone, it vanishes, wasting the attack (since RuneScape uses a turn-based combat system). The user of the illusory spell can either peg it, or stay and fight. Now normally, the highest hitting target attracts the auto-retaliate feature; so you'd pick out the caster if he stayed. However, Illusory's fake attacks trick the system into thinking they are all hitting random high-damage (though
you'll lose no health). So your player would randomly shift around attacking random ones, never the caster.

You may only have two of the four chapters open at any one time. When
you pray at ones respective altar, you will be given the choice as to
which you wish to replace. The teleports and curses are open exempt to
any chapter, though the curses are PVP only (excluding Castle Wars and
Duel Arena).

Segment one contains the battle spells.
Segment two contains the teleportation spells.
Segment three contains the curse spells. PVP only (not PVP-world only, there's a difference).
You can reposition a segment by dragging it's divider bar (up or down).
X1 orders the spells by element.
X2 orders the spells by level.

The numbers within represent the required level for the spell occupying that slot, rather than each spell having a specific level. All five chapters are graded between 1 and 5; and when the player chooses their chapters, the spells will be alternated, such as; Smoke, Ash, Shadow, Sand, Blood, Stone, Ice, Bone, etc. Aside from spells in the lowest and highest grade, all spells would have two possible levels (depending on which chapter they are paired with).

Note some may be overpowered! There have also been 4 new additions to the crew, so 4 new effects needed.
- Ash: Will temporarily lower the target's defence level.
- Tar: Will damage the target's energy (and hitpoints) whilst replenishing yours.
- Smoke: Poisons the target.
- Sand: Chance of petrifying the foe.
- Magma: Chance of burning the target.
- Shadow: Temporarily reduces target's Attack level.
- Stone: Will deactivate the opponents prayer and disable it.
- Bark: Will decreases the total damage dealt by the target's next attack.
- Blood: Heals the caster up to one-quarter of inflicted damage.
- Bone: Will add onto your prayer points an fifth of the damage dealt.
- Flesh: Will recoil damage to your opponents hitpoints.
- Ice: Chance of freezing the target.
- Thorn: Chance of inflicting "Virus", a kind of backwards poison. (gets vicious)
- Acid: Damage is recoiled to foes' skills, like disease.
- Fog: Extinguishes the light for an amount of time. (like a dungeon without a candle)
- Mud: Will temporarily lower the target's stength level.

No damage spells/ curses;
- Miasmic: Slows down opponent's melee attacking speed by 50%. (no longer range speed)
- Facade: Single (creates fake icons on the map), Multi (creates fake targets in game)
- Occlusive: The foe cannot select you as an attack target.
- Illusory: The foe's attack targets are randomly placed, doesn't immunise you.

I will update this in a while.
