## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: Can I do the main quest on multiple characters?** A: No, only ONE character per account can complete the main quest. Choose wisely!

**Q: Can all my characters do daily quests?** A: Yes! Once you complete the main quest on one character, ALL characters on your account can do dailies. However, only one character can have an active daily quest at a time.

**Q: How many Scatelon pets can I get?** A: Only ONE per account. This is the rarest pet in the event!
