Guide to Neopets Quests

Quests are an exciting part of the Neopets world, offering you the opportunity to help out various characters in exchange for prizes, Neopoints, and other valuable items. Whether it’s completing a simple task or embarking on a more complicated quest, there’s always something fun to do in Neopia!

Types of Quests:

There are two primary types of quests in Neopia:

  1. Faerie Quests
  2. Other Quests

1. Faerie Quests

Faerie Quests are the simplest and most predictable type of quests. When you get a Faerie Quest, you’ll be asked to provide a single item, and in return, you will always receive the same type of reward. Each Faerie offers a different type of quest, and their rewards can vary slightly depending on the type of Faerie.

Common Faerie Quests and Rewards:
  • Dark Faerie Quest: She will ask for a toy (like a Doll or Rattle) and, in return, she will give your Neopet hit points (HP).
  • Light Faerie Quest: She typically asks for a Light item (like a lamp or other Light-themed item), and in return, your Neopet will receive stat boosts.
  • Earth Faerie Quest: The Earth Faerie will ask for an earth item (such as a rock or a flower) and will give you a Neopoint reward or an item related to Earth themes.
  • Water Faerie Quest: The Water Faerie often asks for an aquatic item (like a seashell) and will give you a Neopoint reward or hit points.
  • Fire Faerie Quest: You’ll typically be asked for fire-related items, like a candle or sparkler, and receive hit points or items in return.

Faerie Quest Rewards:

  • Hit Points (HP): This is a common reward for many Faerie Quests, especially from the Dark Faerie, Water Faerie, and Fire Faerie.
  • Items: Items received from these quests could be rare items, Neopoints, or upgrades to your Neopet’s abilities.
  • Stat Boosts: Some faeries, like the Light Faerie, reward you with boosts to your Neopet’s stats.

Tips for Faerie Quests:

  • Know the Faeries: The reward is based on which Faerie sends the quest, so you can easily figure out what you will be getting.
  • One Quest at a Time: You can only have one Faerie Quest at a time, so make sure to complete it before starting another.
  • Item Availability: The item requested is usually something simple to find in the shops or on the Shop Wizard, but prices can vary. Make sure the item is affordable before accepting the quest!

Air Faerie

What does she want?:Cosemetic items of any kind. Air faeries are vain. :P
In return?: More speed/agility for you pet. (+1 movement for random pet)
Is it really worth it?: Most cosemetic items are cheap so I say go for it if it’s under 300 neopoints. Easy training! Yay! ^^

Earth Faerie

What does she want?: Expensive Magical items (Motes, bottles of water, etc.
In return?: She makes your pets bloated.
Is it really worth it?: I say no – don’t do her quests unless under 500np. You can get the same results from the Healing Springs for free.

Fire Faerie

What does she want?:Clothes
In return?: Increases your pets strength.
Is it really worth it?: These quests are really worth it because the items she asks for are cheap and you get +1 strength which is really good.

Water Faerie

What does she want?: Books
In return?: Increases your pets defence.
Is it really worth it?: I suggest only doing it if the book is less than 200np because otherwise books tend to be expensive and not really worth it.

Light Faerie

What does she want?: Collectable Cards
In return?: Increases your pets level by one or two points.
Is it really worth it?: Only do it if the collectable card is less than 1000 neopoints. Otherwise it’s a waste.

Dark Faerie

What does she want?:Toys/Models
In return?: Increases your pets endurance.
Is it really worth it?: The toys aren’t usually expensive so I say go for it. If the toys are above 200np just ignore it otherwise it’s a good quest to do.

Faerie Queen

What does she want?:Random Items
In return?: Random Stat increases (Can be very good, or just pointless!)
Is it really worth it?: This faerie quest is mostly a gamble. Most of the times you wil get great stat updates, but sometimes you won’t. I suggest you do them if the quests are under 3000, because it’s cheaper than a codestone.

Fountain Faerie

What does she want?: Generally Expensive items
In return?: A pass into her rainbow fountain where you can paint your pet any color you’d like.
Is it really worth it?: If the item is over millions, then no. But if it’s in the 100,000 – 200,000np range then yes. Most paint brushes will cost in about the millions or high Hundred thousands. So play your cards right and you get a nice lookin’ pet for yas. The Rainbow Fountain however is only working if you have a quest at the current time.

Space Faerie

What does she want?:Random Items
In return?: A certain amount of level increase.
Is it really worth it?:Depends how expensive the item is. You can earn up to 4 levels from the Space faerie.

How Do you Get it?
Paint your Buzz at the Rainbow Fountain.

There are also two other faerie quests, Illusen’s Glade and Jhudora’s Cloud. You can find more information about them on those pages.

2. Other Quests

Aside from the Faerie Quests, there are several other characters who offer different types of quests. These quests tend to involve more unique items or tasks and offer a range of rewards. Here are some of the most notable ones:

Taelia’s Snow Faerie Quest:
  • What you do: Taelia asks you to collect snow items (like a Snowflake or Snowglobe) and bring them to her.
  • What you get: You will receive Neopoints, Snow Faerie-related items, or occasionally a petpet. It’s a great quest to do for extra items, but not always the best for Neopoint returns.
Esophagor’s Soup Kitchen Quest:
  • What you do: The Esophagor asks for specific foods (such as soup, fruit, or bread).
  • What you get: In return, you receive a random item. It can sometimes be a useful item or a rare one, but don’t expect a huge reward.
Meridell King’s Quest:
  • What you do: These quests can vary, but often involve fetching items for the King of Meridell or completing a task for him.
  • What you get: Rewards can include Neopoints, rare items, or petpet-related items.
The Fountain Faerie Quest:
  • What you do: The Fountain Faerie asks for a very specific item, usually one related to beauty or Fountain items.
  • What you get: If you complete her quest, you will receive the ability to paint your Neopet with a rare paintbrush, which is one of the most coveted rewards in Neopia!

Tips for Other Quests:

  • Check for Prices: These quests often require items that can be found through a variety of sources, so check the prices before accepting to avoid overspending.
  • Rare Items: Some of the quests ask for rare or hard-to-find items, which may take time to gather or may cost a lot of Neopoints, so make sure it’s worth the effort.
Brain Tree Quests
What he wants?: Like most people with big brains, that brain only wants more knowledge! So our friend the brain tree here is looking for more knowledge to fill his brain. He wants the time and death of certain people. In order to get answers you have to do Esophager quests. The Esophogarwill give you one of the answers per quest rather than an item. The esophager is the only one who knows answers to these quests, no one else in neopia does! Don’t ask! Wierd. The Esophager knows more than the brain tree. x)
What you get?: Items and a certain amount of neopoints.
Is it Worth it?: It really depends on your luck. Sometimes you’ll get get a feather tickler worth 200 neopoints, but other times you’ll get a Brain Tree Mace worth 200k. I suggest not doing the quest if you have to pay more than 3000np.
BD Challenger?: Yes; Go here for more info.
Neopedia?: Yes; Click here to see it
Avatar?: Nope – not yet! ^^;
Esophagor
What he wants?: He mostly wants spooky food items.
What you get?: If you’re doing a brain tree quest first time you feed him you will get the date of when a famous neopian died, and the second where the neopian died. If you’re not on a Brain Tree Quest you’ll get a random, most likely spooky, item.
Is it Worth it?: The price of spooky items has greatly inflated so it’s hard to get a good quest. Don’t complete a quest with items more expensive than 2000np together since the items aren’talways the best items.
BD Challenger?: Yes; Go here for more info.
Neopedia?: Nope; Sorry!
Avatar?: Nope – not yet! ^^;

Edna’s Quests
What she wants?: Random cheap items.
What you get?: Usually a spooky item and a few hundred neopoints. Sometimes an avatar.
Is it Worth it?: The price of several spooky items has inflated so I say go for it if it’s under 2000 neopoints. The Neopoint payout isn’t much but sometimes you can get a pig snout, which an avatar item you can feed to your pet. Those items are very expensive.
BD Challenger?: Yes; Go here for more info.
Neopedia?: Yes; Click here to see the article
How Do you Get it?
Awarded randomly through Edna’s Quest.
Kitchen Quests
What he wants?: Random food items, these tend to be expensive however..
What you get?: Stat upgrades, aquatic food, petpets, and battledome items.
Is it Worth it?: If the price is under 5,000 neopoints – I say do it because if you’re training your pet, these are very useful and are sometimes cheaper than codestones or dubloons. You can also get rare items in exchange.
BD Challenger?: Nope; Sorry.
Neopedia?: Nope; Sorry.
Avatar?: Nope; Sorry!
Snow Faerie Quests
What he wants?: Usually candy or food items.
What you get?: There’s a wide variety of possibilities, ranging from cheap snowballs to rare items. You also get a couple of thousand neopoints reward.
Is it Worth it?: If she’s asking for under 3,000 neopoints, go for it. You might get a great reward..
BD Challenger?: Yes; Go here for more info.
Neopedia?: Yes (2); Click here for article on Taeliaand Click here for article on snow faerie
How Do you Get it?
Complete one of the Snow Faerie’s Quests.

Which Quests are Worth Doing?

  • Faerie Quests: These are quick and easy, and you’ll always get a consistent reward, such as hit points or stat boosts. If you’re looking for fast, free rewards for your Neopet, these are the way to go.
  • Taelia’s Quest: If you’re looking for rare items or an occasional petpet, this is worth doing. However, it may not always offer huge Neopoint rewards.
  • Esophagor’s Quest: Not the best for a big payoff, but great for getting random items and food-related prizes.
  • The Fountain Faerie Quest: This is one of the best quests in Neopia, as the reward—a paintbrush for your Neopet—is extremely valuable. If you ever get this quest, it’s definitely worth completing!
  • Other Quests: Meridell King’s and other occasional quests may give decent rewards, but keep in mind that they may be harder to complete.
