Questing is a term often used in gaming and storytelling that refers to the act of embarking on a journey to achieve a specific goal or complete a mission. This can involve exploring new areas, solving puzzles, or battling enemies. Players or characters typically gather information, items, or allies along the way to help them succeed in their quest. In many role-playing games, such as Dungeons & Dragons or The Elder Scrolls, questing is a central gameplay mechanic. Quests can vary in complexity, from simple tasks like delivering a message to intricate storylines involving multiple characters and challenges. Successful questing often leads to rewards, such as experience points, new skills, or valuable items.
