The defining High Fantasy storyline. The quest means business. Quests feature The Hero and a bunch of supporting cast members traveling across the world with a firm goal in mind: to recover a McGuffin, collect all the Plot Coupons, Save the Princess, defeat the Big Bad, locate a loved one or all of the above. Quite possibly an Impossible Task, to get rid of him. Will usually involve lots of incidental minor adventures, running into oracles and wise men, fantastic creatures and damsels dispensing items that may help you on your quest. A great device, because it allows the writer to do character interaction and showcase exotic locations, and give The Hero a good reason to Walk the Earth. Used mostly in a fantasy world, but can also take place in a modern or mundane setting with enough work-around. Older versions just set the character off on his quest in the wilderness about them. Often undertaken by Hitchhiker Heroes or people on The Homeward Journey. The problem with such a story from a modern perspective is that they can actually tail off too much into the various side-stories and forget the main goal that the characters originally started out on. This was less of a problem before, as Medieval writers often deliberately wrote a network of plots, subplots, and sub-subplots branching out like a tree. Examples of this are Spenser's The Faerie Queene, Arabian Nights, and Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Christopher Booker's The Seven Basic Plots separates The Quest from Overcoming the Monster. While both involve a journey, the Overcoming the Monster plot is far more focused on heading straight for the Monster (with perhaps a side quest for magic weapons), while The Quest concentrates on a variety of obstacles including Monsters, Temptations, Deadly Opposites, and a Journey to The Underworld. (This probably indicates that if the heroes don't realize there's a Big Bad to fight until after the halfway point, it's following The Quest plot.) Also, The Quest is the plot most likely to include companions (a small group, or just one companion – or, as with The Odyssey, a Red Shirt Army). Compare The Hero's Journey. Though separate and distinct tropes, the two don't just overlap, they have adjoining apartments and raid each other's refrigerators Kramer-style. The main difference is that a quest has a stated goal, and the focus is mainly on the adventures had along the way to that goal; a hero's journey tends to be undertaken in response to events thrust upon the hero(es), and focuses on the personal growth of the characters as they find (or overcome) their destiny.

The Order of the Stick's whole story is pretty much kicked off by Roy's quest to defeat Xykon. Needless to say, things got a little more complicated... Overcoming the Monster turned out to be only the first Act; just finding out they have a Quest, to protect or destroy the Gates, was one of the obstacles they had to overcome. The Act I Monster, Not Quite Dead, is still there as an obstacle, so the final Act could easily turn back into Overcoming the Monster. |

Parodied a few times in The Owl House. In the episode "Witches before Wizards", a wizard gives Luz a quest to retreive a magical whatsit. Along the way, she encounters hillariously generic companions and solves comically easy challenges, only to discover that the entire thing was a ruse by a shapeshifter to lure in Luz' mentor, Eda. The show isn't cynical about this trope, however, as the core message of the episode is that no one ever became great by waiting around for someone else to declare them the Chosen One. You have to get up and start your own quest. In the episode "Sense and Insensibility", Eda and her sister Lilith are competing to retrieve the Bloom of Eternal Youth, both following maps they bought from a stall at the market. The show's upfront about how obvious a scam it is, and neither sisters are particularily surprised when the scam artist turns out to be a vampiric being luring them to his nest. They then kick his ass. The show's season 1 two-part finale is a Night Sea Voyage variant, as Luz and her friends have to infiltrate Emperor Belos' castle in order to find a magical item that can cure Eda. They fail, and the result is that Eda is captured. In the next episode, Luz infiltrates the castle alone to save her, even managing to land a strike on Belos, but she's severely outmatched. She does save Eda, but only by striking a deal with Belos. |

Common for the more "epic" stories in the Disney Ducks Comic Universe. Though there are many, perhaps the most notable variant is the one where Scrooge and/or his nephews search for a lost legendary treasure or something similar. These exist in more than one variant, too, from Don Rosa's historically well-researched stories to the Italian ones where Scrooge typically kidnaps his relatives to go along against their will to search for something bizarre like the key to time or the gigantic coins of the cyclopes. | |

The eponymous quest in Chronicle of the Annoying Quest: where a group of Paladins within the Pious Patron Bar task John Ellars sends him off on a Quest to find and kill "A Black Dragon of at least 2000 years of age" in order for Ellars to be allowed to drink at the bar. While the "Quest" itself is in-reality a Snipe Hunt combined with an Impossible Task, Ellars and Guy efforts to actually find a Black Dragon takes them up-and-down the width and breadth of Azeroth in pursuit of steps that'll lead to the location of a Black Dragon. | |

Season ten of Stargate SG-1 has a two-part episode called "The Quest" where SG-1, Ba'al, and Adria set out to find the Holy Grail. The journey is largely framed as an Arthurian-style high fantasy, though many elements are subverted since what the primitive folks think of as magic is actually very advanced technology. Most of Stargate revolves around this. SG-1 are almost always on a quest to find something - the Asgard, the Ancients, various lost or hidden superweapons, Atlantis, Daniel's wife, etc.. While episodes tend to follow the Monster of the Week format as obstacles in a longer quest, they often also take the former of smaller quests of their own, with the quest being established in the opening scenes before the title credits. |

The main quest in Avatar: The Last Airbender revolves around the Avatar named Aang and his mission to master all four elements and defeat the Fire Nation, which has been waging a war of conquest against the other nations for a century. Aang's role as the Avatar is to maintain balance in the world by bringing peace and harmony among the nations. Aang and his friends - the waterbender Katara, her brother Sokka, blind earthbender Toph Beifong, and later on, firebending prince Zuko - travel across the world seeking out masters to teach Aang the different bending powers. Ultimately, Aang must confront Fire Lord Ozai, the leader of the Fire Nation and the Big Bad of the series, in a battle to save the world. With the support of his friends and the knowledge he has gained, Aang faces his fears and fulfills his destiny as the Avatar, bringing an end to the war and restoring balance to the world. | |

Cradle Series: Near the start of the series, Lindon receives a vision of his home being destroyed in thirty years, and he sets out to stop it. Notably, Suriel, the one giving him the vision, intended it only as a comfort; at the time, his life was terrible, so she was showing him that he lives a happy life before his entire home is destroyed. However, when he refuses that future in favor of trying to save his home no matter the cost, Suriel gives him a tour of the most powerful people on the planet, ending with Yerin, a girl about his age and power level, who can journey with him to become stronger and eventually save his home. After Lindon sees a Monarch fighting a Dreadgod, he realizes a similar battle is what levels his home. Or rather, he's pretty sure that a god accidentally steps on his home and kills hundreds of people during a much more important battle. | |

The last book of Song of the Lioness has Alanna meeting several new companions as she goes on a quest for the Dominion Jewel so she can return to Tortall as a hero rather than a disgrace or a curiosity. It was added at the behest of Pierce's editor because "fantasy books always have quests," although the Jewel is mentioned in the subsequent series. | |

Infinity Train: Knight of the Orange Lily deconstructs the basic concept of this with Gladion wanting to become stronger to fight off Nihilego. It's not glamorous at all, what with the training and fighting and sleeping alone in hotel rooms all the time. The fairy-tale that introduces the story even notes that quests rarely ever mention the boring or exhausting parts of them. This doesn't stop Gladion from going on his own knightly quest across the Infinity Train to end the Apex and by the 400 Rabbits Car arc, it becomes a quest to collect the memory tapes of the Apex and trap them within their own pasts in the hopes of them realizing their mistakes and getting their numbers to drop. | |

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure involves this in each of its eight parts. In Part 1, it is to kill Dio (who is an evil vampire) and destroy the Stone Mask, which can create vampires such as him. In Part 2, it is to kill the Pillar Men, the creators of the Stone Mask, and to stop them from obtaining the Red Stone of Aja. In Part 3, it is to rescue Holly Joestar by killing Dio, who survived from Part 1. In Part 4, it is to find and stop Kira Yoshikage (a serial killer) before he can claim more victims. In Part 5, it is to find the Stand arrow and to stop Diavolo from obtaining it, or killing Trish. In Part 6 it is to stop Pucci from realizing his plans and resetting the entire world. Part 7 starts off with the Quest being an Epic Race, but as it goes on it becomes a matter of finding the Corpse Parts. Part 8 is so far a Jigsaw Puzzle Plot focusing on various mysteries relating to "Josuke". |

Doctor Who: Doctor Who fits the classical Odyssey structure early on, when the Doctor is trying to return the teachers home and they face temptation ("The Aztecs"), hard journeys ("Marco Polo"), tests of character ("The Keys of Marinus"), Scylla and Charybdis ("The Aztecs", "The Sensorites"), monsters ("The Daleks", "The Web Planet", and a lot more), and even a journey to the Underworld in "The Space Museum" when they are Just One Second Out of Sync, can't interact with anything or anyone and see their own corpses. Once the teachers get Put on a Bus, these elements are discarded in favour of just a neverending story full of aliens. Subverted in "The Keys of Marinus" in which The Chooser of the One informs them that they are the chosen people who must rescue the Plot Coupons and save their planet. Gilligan Cut to them walking off down the beach, Barbara remarking to Ian that "it's a shame we can't do anything for that poor man and his planet. Well, back to the TARDIS." Double subverted when it turns out the man has put the TARDIS behind a force field to force them into doing it. In the serial "Underworld", the Minyan crew's guiding principle is "The quest is the quest." They are rather stunned with success, but when they realize it will only take three centuries to get where they are going, they are delighted. |

In a two-parter on Criminal Minds, "The Fisher King", the unsub frames his crime in the pattern of a quest, including macabre clues and even a damsel in distress...one chained to a bed and scheduled to die if the team doesn't find her. | |

Stephen King's The Dark Tower. (The protagonist is such a Determinator that we're never really allowed to forget the main thrust of the quest, no matter what tangents he falls afoul of.) | |

Daughter of the Sun: Orsina has been on one for two years, searching for a great evil in Vesolda that she must fight. However, she's had no luck at the start of the story. Then she comes across a chaos goddess, and it seems she's finally found the great evil... but things are more complicated than they first seem. It turns out her quest is not from Orsina's god Iolar. Instead, she was sent away with this excuse by her lover's father, who lied about having a vision Iolar sent which ordered it. | |
