The intention is for the characters to act as supporters for the Lunar Priestess who will be leading the quest. The idea would be that they would have supporting roles acting as parts of the quest.

The intention was for them to be following a White Moon quest. I was rather hoping that the Lunars might be doing a counter quest or suchlike. I'm afraid Heroquesting is something I've never tried before and am still a little unsure who can / can't take part and whether such a thing as I have described would be feasible.

Thanks Aagin
