Every main and side quest in Avowed.
Avowed is an action RPG set in the world of Eora, the same universe as Obsidian’s Pillars of Eternity Series.
In it, you play as the Envoy, and your mission, given to you by the Emperor himself, is to fight a mystical plague called the Dreamscourge in the untamed Living Lands. As soon as you land in the Living Lands, you’ll also discover that you have a connection with the Dreamscourge.
Moreover, you’ll have to deal with the colonial politics of the Living Lands, namely with the Steel Garotte, a paramilitary group of religious zealots led by Inquisitor Lödwyn, who your character has a past with.
Furthermore, Avowed is quite a long game, though not as long as many other RPGs. Focusing only on the main quest, it should take you around 20-25 hours to finish. And if you want to complete all the side content, you’re in for another 20 hours.
In this article, we’ve listed all the main and side quests in Avowed, their starting locations, and what you get for completing them (other than XP of course).
