Instruction	Talk to Merlin at the Druid's House. Talk to Merlin again and you will be given the choice to do the RP Shadow Mission, "The Juiciest Boar". You will role-play as yourself, with 10 in each stat, and with the following Items: Broadsword, Targe Shield, and 5 HP 30 Potions. Life, Stamina, and Mana Stats vary between races. You will have the following skills: Rank 1 Defense, Rank D Smash, and Novice Combat Mastery, Sword Mastery, and Shield Mastery. You will have access to the Rock Throwing Action. There will be eight Juicy Boars scattered throughout the mission. You must use Rock Throwing three times on each boar. Boars are also affected by normal attacks. However, it is highly advised not to attack them normally. Boars may attack you while you climb the ladder. Climbing nearby ladders will drop aggro. Boars that drop aggro will return to their spawn point. Do note that Rock Throwing will displace the user if used while moving. In the case this happens, you may not be able to climb the ladder. In the case that you are chased too far away from the ladders, use the trees around the map to hide behind. The boars will multi-aggro and are capable of easily killing you. Each time you attack or throw a rock at a boar, they will change into a brighter shade of red. Upon the third hit, they will run away and eventually despawn. Upon completing the objective, you will be prompted with a dialogue and the Juiciest Boar will appear. This boss will be weaker than the previous boars and will only use normal attacks, Defense, and Counterattack. Using the ladders will drop the aggro, but upon getting off, the Boar will immediately aggro you again. After slaying the Juiciest Boar, you must manually exit the mission. Talk to Merlin. Talk to Starlet. Complete the quest. [15,000 EXP; 25,000 Gold; AP 20 Potion] Replaying this Prologue does not reward another AP Potion.
