Trying to make a new quest using Vanilla NPCs. The first half of the quest line will be very simple (and perhaps a bit dull) since it’s my first quest. This again doesn’t edit vanilla quests.
The quest starts when you first eat Ruby Nash’s Casserole and if Ruby Nash (located in Primm) isn’t dead. The premise of the first half of the quest is to help her improve her cooking ability and the recipe. Once you agree to help sample her cooking, your current weight level is stored into a tracking variable that I will get back to later. First task is to eat 10 of her casseroles. This pretty much requires you hunt down 10 Radscorpion poison glands (Weight gained is +40 without the trait, and +60 if you have it). After you do this return to her for the second portion of the quest. The next part is to try 10 of her experimental new recipe that requires Bark Scorpion poison glands to make (Weight +50 without trait, Weight +80 with trait). Upon completion, you will receive 500XP, a determinate amount of caps, the ability to give her bark scorpion glands for the improved casserole, a total of 90 weight points gained without the trait or 140 weight if you have the trait (this came from eating the casseroles, not for completing the quest), and the next quest. If you are a higher weight level at the end of the quest vs the beginning you can complain and ask for more pay. If you are only 1 weight level higher you get some extra pay, if you are 2 you get quite a bit more, and if you are 3 or more you will not get anything because you get accused of being a glutton for other food as well (since it’s impossible to go up 3 weight levels by doing this quest alone).
