"""
A simple quest system for EvAdventure.
A quest is represented by a quest-handler sitting as
`.quests` on a Character. Individual Quests are child classes of `EvAdventureQuest` with
methods for each step of the quest. The quest handler can add, remove, and track the progress
by calling the `progress` method on the quest. Persistent changes are stored on the quester
using the `add_data` and `get_data` methods with an Attribute as storage backend.
A quest ending can mean a reward or the start of
another quest.

"""
This represents a single questing unit of quest.
Properties:
name (str): Main identifier for the quest.
category (str, optional): This + name must be globally unique.
it ends - it then pauses after the last completed step.
Each step of the quest is represented by a `.step_<stepname>` method. This should check
the status of the quest-step and update the `.current_step` or call `.complete()`. There
are also `.help_<stepname>` which is either a class-level help string or a method
returning a help text. All properties should be stored on the quester.
Example:
```py
class MyQuest(EvAdventureQuest):
'''A quest with two steps that ar'''
start_step = "A"
help_A = "You need a 'A_flag' attribute on yourself to finish this step!"
help_B = "Finally, you need more than 4 items in your inventory!"
