A Venture is a story that emphasizes one of the major qualities and whose storylets (typically) occur all in one location. Storylets for a Venture (typically) are shown with this bronze-colored background to distinguish them from other kinds of storylets. More detail of each Venture is on its own page. |
Ventures advance by increasing a related Progress quality to a certain level towards a milestone storylet, typically a conclusion for shorter Ventures. Some Ventures have several milestones, between which the associated Progress quality may need to be raised again and again as more is learned about the Venture.
Some Ventures can be completed multiple times as long as your associated major Quality is low enough to unlock the initial storylet. Still others award an Accomplishment on completion of the Venture and cannot be repeated.
