for anyone who wants/needs this for any reason this is the bard epic quest. ill prolly make the other class epics one at a time seeing as they are long :)
there may be a few errors but for the most part should be error free.

MAIN
this part is the main person who acctually starts the epic and gives it to you:

#zone start - Dreadlands
#type - epic
#class - Bard
#mob - Baldric Slezaf

sub EVENT_SAY
{
if($text=~/Hail, $mname/i)
{
quest::say("Hello. Don't you think this would be a wonderful place to perform a [symphony]?");
}
if($text=~/what symphony/i)
{
quest::say("It has been my dream for years to perform a symphony that would be remembered for ages to come. I have run into a few minor [snags], however.");
}
if($text=~/what snags/i)
{
quest::say("Several years ago I bought sheets of the most beautiful sounding music from a traveling merchant. He did not know the author of the work as it was simply signed 'the Maestro'. The melody I played from them was wondrous and invoked feelings in me I have never felt before. However, as I reached the middle of the music, I discovered it was missing two [pages]!");
}
if($text=~/what pages/i)
{
quest::say("The pages that were missing were pages 24 and 25. I have been searching the world for a spot to hold my symphony and I have finally found it. Without the music and a new lute crafted by the famous instrument maker [Forpar Fizfla], I do not think I can pull it off.");
}
if($text=~/who is forpar fizfla/i)
{
quest::say("Forpar Fizfla is an eccentric instrument maker from Ak'Anon. He makes enchanted instruments that enhance the sound of the music. If I am to perform the concert of all concerts, I must have one of his instruments. I went to Ak'Anon, seeking to purchase an instrument from him but he wouldn't even speak to me.");
}
if($text=~/what music/i)
{
quest::say("It makes me sad to know that the pages of this music may be spread across the world or destroyed. If you find and bring me the two missing sheets as well as a new lute, I would be happy to repay you in some way.");
}
if($text=~/how will you repay me/i)
{
quest::emote("pulls a fantastic looking sword from its scabbard");
quest::say("I might be willing to part with this wonderful sword if I were able to perform this symphony. You would also gain recognition at the opening of the symphony.");

this section is getting page 25 (simple lol)
just have to talk to Kelkin Mekia and get the items they require

#part of bard epic
#page 25
#npc - Kelkin Mekia
#zone - South Karana

sub EVENT_SAY
{
if($text=~/Hail, $mname/i)
{
quest::say("Well met $name. What can I help ya with?");
}
if($text=~/the symphony page 25/i)
{
quest::say("Yes, I have that. If you want it, it will not come to you easily. I will need you to get me a Chromodrac Gut, a Red Wurm Gut, and an Onyx Drake Gut. Give those to me and i'll give you the page.");
}
}

sub EVENT_ITEM
{
if($itemcount{20527} && $itemcount{20528} && $itemcount{20529} == 1)
{
quest::say("So you got my items eh? Well...here you go.");
quest::summonitem(20377);
}
}


this section is assembling the Mystical Lute
you first have to talk to a half elf bard in Butcherblock to get a note to give to Forpar so he will talk to you

#part of bard epic
#part of mystical lute
#npc - Vedico
#zone - Butcherblock

sub EVENT_SAY
{
if($text=~/Hail, $mname/i)
{
quest::say("Greetings $name. Can you believe, I had a great horn, but on the crossing over here from Freeport a cyclops stole it from me! I would give anything to get it back.");
}
}

sub EVENT_ITEM
{
if($itemcount{20530} == 1)
{
quest::say("My horn! Thank you for retrieving it for me! Here, take this request for Forpar Fizfla to create a great lute for you.");
quest::summonitem(20378);
}
}

you then go to Forpar with the note and begin assembling the lute

#part of bard epic
#mystical lute
#npc - Forpar Fizfla
#zone - Steamfont

sub EVENT_SAY
{
if($text=~/Hail, $mname/i)
{
quest::say("What do you want? Go away.");
}
}

sub EVENT_ITEM
{
if($itemcount{20378} == 1)
{
quest::say("Aww, so you want a lute eh? Well it won't be easy. I will need to craft the [head], [body], and [strings] seperately.");
}
if($text=~/what head/i)
{
quest::say("To craft the head of the lute I will need the Backbone of and Ancient Fisherman, an Amalgam Tentacle, and the Petrified Skull of a Lycanthrope. Oh, and also take this note and give it back to me when you turn in these components.");
quest::summonitem(20380);
}
if($text=~/what body/i)
{
quest::say("To craft the body I will need a Red Dragon Scale, a White Dragon Scale, and some metal bits. Give me these components and I will be able to craft the body of the lute.");
}
if($text=~/what strings/i)
{
quest::say("Retrieve the strings of Trakanon in Sebilis. They are called Undead Dragongut Strings.");
}
}

sub EVENT_ITEM
{
if($itemcount{20380} && $itemcount{20524} && $itemcount{xx} && $itemcount{29161} == 1)
{
quest::say("Well done! Well done! Just a sec, let me craft the head of the lute.");
quest::emote("fiddles with his tools and hands you the head.");
quest::summonitem(20535);
}
if($itemcount{11602} && $itemcount{11622} && $itemcount{16905} == 1)
{
quest::say("Very well done! I am surprised you were able to get the scales! Let me craft your body.");
quest::emote("fiddles with his tools a moment and returns with the body of the lute");
quest::summonitem(20536);
}
if($itemcount{20536} && $itemcount{20535} && $itemcount{20526} == 1)
{
quest::say("Well done indeed! You have gotten everything I need to craft a great lute indeed!");
quest::emote("grabs his tools and puts the finishing touches on the lute.");
quest::say("Aye, it is a fine lute. A Mystical Lute. Enjoy it!");
quest::summonitem(20538);
}
}

this script is for the undead bard. you have to give him the body of the lute and he will give it back and become enraged and attack you. you have to kill him to make trakanon spawn to get the gut strings

#part of bard epic
#mystical lute
#npc - an Undead Bard
#zone - Sebilis

sub EVENT_ITEM
{
if($itemcount{20536} == 1)
{
quest::summonitem(20536);
quest::emote("becomes enraged!");
}
}

sub EVENT_DEATH
{
quest:spawn(dragon, 0, 0, x,y,z);
}

You rock man.

Well. trakanon isnt in any of the actual databases right now. although we at projecteq HAVE collected him now. just not in a official release. We have NOT collected undead bard yet. working on it.

I dont think you can use the actual trakanon spawn though. because this is different from the normal trakanon as he drops the guts every time. real trak never drops the guts in eqlive anymore.

thanks for the compliment :)
ya, you have to kill the undead bard in order to get the trak that drops the guts to spawn

FYI: This epic is riddled with incorrect or made up text responses. I't s a good starting point. But i'm compiling a complete true to live version.

This is just from writing up about 5 different npcs involved in this quest that i noticed the huge amount of text that didn't exist in the live quest. ) You dummied it up and tell the player where to go next, as opposed to eq's subtle hints
