MagiQuest

MagiQuest is a live action role-playing game where the participant serves as the main character. The game is similar to a MMORPG but it takes place in real life. Players, called Magi in the game, use a IR wand to complete quests, adventures, interact with objects, find gold, and even duel. The wand remembers the player's progress with each visit however if the player loses their wand or something happens to it their progress can be added to a new wand. At certain locations there are also optional items such as the key which lets you get more gold or the compass which has all the features of the key but also can be used to send a message to friends informing them to meet you at the stone circle at the center of MagiQuest. The Questmaster and others suggest activities but it is ultimately up to the player.

The first MagiQuest was opened in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina at noon on Wednesday June 15, 2005. The opening included a magical celebration during which some of the actors featured in the quests appeared.

Wands

The basic wand comes in multiple color variations and comes with a "orb" topper that has no effect on the gameplay. There are several different replacement "orbs" and "toppers" you can buy. There is also a rune keeper to keep rune replicas on that you can buy or just extend the length of the wand. The orb toppers relate to the specific clans that the player can join. The Clans are: Clan |Corresponding Color

Warrior (red)
Woodsey (green)
Trickster (purple)
Shadow (black)
Majestic (blue)

Powers/Runes

The one thing to do in Magiquest is to build and gain power through runes. Five certain runes are favored by each one of the five clans. To earn runes you complete a series of tasks such as creating potions for the healing rune, collecting gold for the rune of distraction, or seeking items for the lightning rune.

Blackmore's Night

The band Blackmore's Night performs the music for MagiQuest. Candice Night, the band's vocalist, plays the role of Princess Candice, a character featured in some of the MagiQuest quests.

Locations

MagiQuest is located in Myrtle Beach, SC, Williamsburg, VA, Pocono Mountains, PA Santa Ana, CA and is comming soon to East Hannover at a facility called The Funplex NJ.
