Crimson Isle Main Questline

Universal

The questline begins at the spawn of the Crimson Isle where Elle is being attacked by 3 Blazes which the player must kill. Elle will then ask the player to bring her:

•  4x Magma Chunk - Dropped from Magma Cubes in the ⏣ Crimson Fields
•  3x Blaze Ashes - Dropped from regular Blazes in multiple rooms within the ⏣ Stronghold
•  2x Spectre Dust - Dropped from Wither Spectres in the rooms to the left of Elle

Upon delivering these items to Elle, she will tell the player to explore the island, before running away. In order to trigger the next step in the quest, the player must go to the upper floor of either Faction's community center. Elle will stop the player, insisting they talk to any 4 villagers from each faction with green particles above their head. Finally, Elle will give the player the choice of which faction they would like to join. From here, the questline for both factions differ, although they closely parallel.

Mages

Upon choosing the Mage faction, Elle will give the player a  Maddox Batphone. Presenting the Batphone to the Dean in their office ( -16, 123, -882) will give the player a  Letter of Recommendation which allows access to the second floor of the community center, where Queen Nyx will formally invite the player to the Mage Faction.

The player's next quest is to buy an Abiphone from Udel or Nuvian, and use it to call the Dean. The player must then talk to Elle at the ⏣ Crimson Isle spawn, and then follow her to the cliff above ⏣ The Bastion, where she thinks the stolen research is. If the player arrives to  -612, 154, -893 before Elle, she will teleport to meet them there. The player must start at the mouth of the skull and navigate through guards to find the stolen research without being seen by the guards, or walking too close and being heard. The stolen research is located at  -684, 124, -1048, and if the player is quick they can run there before Elle finishes her dialogue and the guards spawn.

Elle will then call the player, and then the player must call the Dean, meet them in the ⏣ Mage Council in the ⏣ Community Center, and then meet them back in their office, where they will ask the player to find their apprentice in the ⏣ Burning Desert. Instead of finding their apprentice the player has to talk to Captain Ahone at  -526, 86, -885 who will tell you to keep looking. Then, the apprentice can be found unconscious at  -521, 104, -916, where you must call Captain Ahone with an Abiphone, and wait for them to arrive.

The next quest is to bring 10  Magma Chunk from Magma Cubes, and 5  Burning Eyes from Flaming Spiders to the Dean in their office.

The Dean will tell the player to talk to Igrupan  -31, 93, -824 who asks the player to help him get his chickens back in the chicken pen by punching or luring them with  Seeds.

The player must also talk to Odexar  -112, 99, -844 who gives the player a  Volcanic Stonefish to bring to Odger  -373, 207, -810. Odger rejects it due to its quality, and tells the player to fish up another  Volcanic Stonefish. He will accept the new fish and give the player a  Framed Volcanic Stonefish to return to Odexar.

The finals series of quests require the player to kill several minibosses and bring their drops to the Dean correspondingly. The drops are:

•  Hallowed Skull from Bladesoul
•  Lumino Fiber from Ashfang
•  Leather Cloth from Barbarian Duke X

Next, the player has to talk to Captain Ahone who tracks down their lost Sulphur to the ⏣ Forgotten Skull on the far back side of the island. The player has to defeat Kuudra in order to finish the questline.

Afterwards, talk with the Dean in the cathedral to complete the storyline.

Barbarians

Upon choosing the Barbarian faction, Elle leads the player out to the ⏣ Burning Desert in search of  Sulphur, believing it will win them favor with the Piglins. A corrupted Flaming Spider spawns, which the player must kill. Soon after, Elle discovers an injured Piglin reverted to pig form; curing it with the sulphur dropped by the spider reveals their identity as Ugo, son of the Barbarian chief. Both NPCs must be escorted back to ⏣ Dragontail by clearing monsters from their path. Witherborn's wither is also considered as a monster. Speaking to Chief Scorn earns the player entry into the Barbarian faction.

Chief Scorn reprimands Ugo for not completing his mission: infiltrating the Mage Faction to steal a war machine they are allegedly building. Elle and the player travel to the ⏣ Cathedral in his place. The player must sneak past the guards to the Dean's office, where the Dean's research can be retrieved from under the table. The research is delivered to the chief, who again reprimands Ugo for neglecting his training. Once again, the player is sent in his place. First, they must travel to the ⏣ Dojo. Speaking to Master Tao initiates three consecutive dojo challenges; Force, Stamina, and Mastery, which they may complete with any ranking higher than F rank (earning higher ranks of belts). Next, they must defeat a Mage Outlaw, followed by a Magma Cube Boss.

After completing Ugo's training, the player runs errands for a couple of other ⏣ Dragontail residents, obtaining 1  Skeleton Fish and 1  Flyfish for Lasea, and 1  Heavy Pearl for Gris (Note: upon activating his quest, Gris will move to the basement of his house when you return).

Eventually, the player is summoned by Chief Scorn, who directs them, Elle, and Ugo to a trail of stolen  Sulphur leading to the ⏣ Forgotten Skull. There, Ugo and Captain Ahone confront each other, before realizing that a common enemy is stealing sulphur from both of them. The player has to defeat Kuudra in order to finish the questline.
