The purpose of this series is to provide a bit of additional leg up for new accounts. Quests can be given their own "Proving Ground" area on the map, or just stuck into a corner of one of the existing areas as three dots near each other or something. Quests can be done in any order; there are no prerequisites or anything. Quests can only be completed once per account (just like regular quests basically).
All three quests should have 150 hp, 1x mark, and 1x draw. The three quests are as follows:
Proving Grounds - Dragon Tamer
Reward: Choose an element and get two unupped dragons of that element.
Proving Grounds - Master of Arms
Reward: Choose any one unupped rare.
Proving Grounds - Gemcutter
Reward: Choose any one unupped shard.
Three QT-based rainbows that each focus on what they give away, and they all give away a thing that's either very useful to new accounts (two dragons and a weapon/rare) or something that it takes new accounts a long time to otherwise obtain (a shard). Nothing too strong really, but different than what you see in the other early game AIs. I'd like to think most new accounts can figure out a deck to beat each of them with fairly limited wealth, since they'll know what they're facing. Quest descriptions can be something simple like "Fight the ___ at the Proving Ground!"
