free quest plugin for your minecraft server
A fully custom quest plugin with beautiful GUI menus, 6 objective types, flexible rewards, and native ZyraJobs integration — built for Spigot 1.21.
ZyraQuests lets you create any quest you can imagine directly from a single YAML file — no commands, no in-game editor required. Players browse quests through polished inventory menus, track their progress in real time via action bar indicators, and earn XP, items, or custom commands as rewards.
Works perfectly standalone, and unlocks extra features when paired with ZyraJobs.
ZyraQuests is built around three fully interactive inventory menus:
📋 Quest Browser — Browse all quests sorted by category (Mining, Farming, Hunting, Brewing, General). Each quest shows its difficulty color, objectives count, your current status (not started / in progress / completed), and a live XP progress bar if active. Paginated for large quest collections.
🔍 Quest Detail — Opens on click. Shows the full quest description, each objective with its own progress bar, all rewards previewed as items, and the Accept / Abandon button. Border color changes based on difficulty (green = Easy, yellow = Medium, red = Hard, orange = Legendary).
⚡ Active Quests — See all your quests in progress at a glance, with per-objective progress bars. Quick-navigate back to any quest's detail view.
Everything lives in quests.yml. One quest looks like this:
