As a player, I can "petition the Emperor" to submit a request for a adventure
against the darkness. I give this adventure a title it shall be known by.
I will become the CREATOR of the adventure, and one of its SEERS. I can
appoint fellow players as additional SEERS.

Once a adventure exists, any player may submit a RUMOR related to said
adventure. Rumors are viewable by all, but SEERS may act upon those rumors
to lay out a plan of attack, create a QUEST which is filled with HAZARDS
informed by those rumors.

Adventures can have a pace. The pace is used to deduct hitpoints when
nothing happens. Penalty for retreating: Roll a die,lose something
(hp), (equip).  


** TODO Plan Out Task Categories and Character Classes More Thoroughly

Here's the idea: Monsters have characteristics. Heroes' character classes
are determined by the kinds of monsters they defeat.

Should we pick discrete classes of character? Discrete classes of monsters?

E.g. Goblin wizard = ???
     Gelatinous Cube = ???

| Task Category   | Monster Class (smaller)         | Monster Class (Bigger) |
|-----------------+---------------------------------+------------------------|
| Feature         | Boss (dragon warlock elemental) | e.g dragon             |
| Task-SubFeature | orc, goblin, (minions)          | orc chieftan           |
| Task-StandAlone | not-minions (wolf)              | minotaur               |

*** Non-task merit earning action

- reporting a rumor that is verified
- verifying a rumor (?)
- lose merit if you rumor is considered specious
- adding context to a rumor (maybe other people give a +1)
- aiding another hero somehow
  

*** Note :  monster reporting and reclassification

When a feature/task/bug is "rumored", the "verifier" should be able to
reclassify it.

there could even be monster promotion mid battle. If it is revealed
that a monster is much much more deadly than initially thought.
