071 - DESERT CREATURES
- WHEN: After finishing Temple of Trials; Al Mamoon
- REWARD: Stardrop, Moondrop, 500 Guilders
- STAMPS: 4
Derwin asks you to get him two special Familiars, so he can study them. These are Green Buncher and Turbandit, both of which are abundant just outside of Al Mamoon. Remember that it's completely random on whether the hearts will appear above the Familiars' heads once they're defeated, so this could take 5 minutes or it could take 30. Once you have both, return to Derwin to get your reward.
072 - MECHANICAL CREATURES
- WHEN: Upon entering Hamelin
- REWARD: 2 Sundrops, 2 Planetdrops, 2000 Guilders
- STAMPS: 5
Derwin is back again and this time, he wants three creatures to study. They are Clanketyclank, Tin-Man and Sprog Cog. You can find all three in the area outside Hamelin, but a better place for the Sprog Cog is the island with The Fairyground. Once you recruit all three of them (and have them on you and not in the Familiar Retreat), show them to Derwin to get your reward.
073 - SNOW-LOVING CREATURES
- WHEN: Upon entering Yule; Finish Errand 072
- REWARD: Jumbo Sundrop, Jumbo Stardrop, 3000 Guilders
- STAMPS: 6
Derwin is doing more research and wants three more creatures to study. They are Ice Queen, Lotus Bubbud and Sasquash. The Ice Queen can be found inside of The Glittering Grotto. The Sasquash can be found either around Yule or inside The Glittering Grotto. The Lotus Bubbud is found around Yule.
Note that the Ice Queen and Sasquash are 2nd tier Familiars, so you can grab their first form and level them up until you can metamorph them. The Ice Maiden and Sasquish are both found around Yule. The Lotus Bubbud is a third tier form, so if you start from the first form (Bubbud is in Ding Dong Well), you'll have to metamorph it into a Sponge Bubbud (can be found around Hamelin), then do it once more.
074 - MORE CREATURES
- WHEN: After restoring Mornstar, Complete Errand 073
- REWARD: 2 Jumbo Planetdrops, 2 Jumbo Moondrops, 5000 Guilders
- STAMPS: 7
Derwin is in Perdida this time and wants three more creatures, only this time they are all third tier ones. He wants a Flash Fry, which can be metamorphed from a Deep Fry that can be gotten at Old Smoky. The second one he wants is a Wispula, which is the third form of a Wisp, which can be gotten from the Tombstone Trail. The third Familiar he wants is a Trumpy-Pumper, which is the third form of a Shonky-Honker, which you can get in the area near Castaway Cove (the area where you need to use the Bridge spell).
075 - FIERCE CREATURES

- REWARD: Lumberwood Ticket, Relixx Ticket, Dinoceros Ticket, 8000 Guilders
- STAMPS: 8
Derwin (Ding Dong Dell) has more creatures to study, but these ones are too ferocious for them to be caught. In order to study them, they have to be subdued in combat first, meaning it's time to get into some fights. These fights are just stronger versions of monsters you should have already fought by now. Note that after defeating the monsters, Derwin will appear where that monster was on the map.
- Grubby Fug - Jack Frost's Playground (southeast of Winter Wonderlands)
- Auric Collum - Genie's Steps (southeast one in Shimmering Sands)
- Shellmet - No Longer Mine island (south of Autumnia)
076 - THE YOUNG ALCHEMIST
- WHEN: After defeating Al-Khemi
- REWARD: 2 Ring-a-Bells, 2 Wetstones, 400 Guilders
- STAMPS: 3
A young girl wants you to create a candle cutter using alchemy and show it to her. The two ingredients needed are a Flint Dagger and an Emberstone. The Flint Dagger can be bought in Al Mamoon, while the Emberstone is dropped from the Small Fry and Sunshine creatures. Once you have both, choose Mix and Match under the Cauldron and put both items in to make the Candle Cutter.
077 - FOREST ALCHEMISTS
- WHEN: After curing Marcassin
- REWARD: 2 Fogdrops, 2 Coldstones, 1500 Guilders, Alchemy Formulae
- STAMPS: 5
To get to where this Errand starts, go to the entrance of the Vault of Tears and follow the land until you happen upon a cliff with a big forest in the middle. It is here that you'll find a Forest Glade with the errand giver. The guy inside will teach you how to make a royal spear, which requires 2 Jade Marbles, 2 Raw Steels, and 2 Shadowglasses.
The Shadowglass can be gotten from the forage point right outside of Hamelin. The Raw Steel can be gotten around Hamelin as well. For the Jade Marbles, it's best to wait until you get Tengri, as there's an area south of Skull Mountain that can only be reached by flying that has a forage spot for Jade Marbles. Once you have 2 of each, use the Mix and Match option to create a Royal Spear.
078 - THE MASTER ALCHEMIST
- WHEN: Complete the game
- REWARD:
- STAMPS: 7
This is definitely one of the longest Errands in the game, as it requires a lot of rare items from rare mobs. This guy can be found inside a cave that is north of Castaway Cove, only reachable with Tengri. First, the errand will be split into two parts, with the Master Alchemist asking for you to make a Demon's Ax. One of the ingredients is a Grand Ax, which you can buy from Perdida.
Another ingredient you need are 2 Black Wings, which can be gotten from Eggyptians or Relixxes as either a drop or by stealing. Both of these enemies can be found in the Nazcaa area. The third, and final, ingredient is 3 Tachestones. Honky-Tonkers are one of the enemies you can get this item from, which can be found inside Ivory Tower.
Make the Demon's Ax and bring it back to the alchemist, who decides to have you to make a War God's Ax. The first ingredient is the Demon's Ax, which you just made, so there's nothing else to make there. The other two ingredients are 5 Kaleidostones and 5 Scrolls of Truth. Note that the steal rate is higher than the drop rate for these, so try to steal them with Swaine instead of relying on the drop rate.
If you did Errand 069, then you should already have two Kaleidostones. Only three different enemies have a Kaleidostone, all of which are Gold versions of the Familiars. The Gold Gobfather can be found in the Miasma Marshes, the Gold Tokotocold can be found inside the Ivory Tower, and the Gold Bedraggle can be found inside the Glittering Grotto.
As far as Scrolls of Truth go, you can't get any freebies, so you'll have to hunt down all five of them. There are four (all Gold versions) enemies that have this item on them. The Gold Toko can be found inside the Vault of Tears, the Gold Dragamuffin can be found inside the Glittering Grotto, the Gold Honky-Tonker can be found inside the Tombstone Trail, and the Gold Hog-Goblin can be found inside the Miasma Marshes.
As you can see above, the best places to get the items are either Miasma Marshes or Glittering Grotto. The enemies are not common, though, so it's going to take a while and remember to steal before relying on drop rates. Once you have all the items, you'll have to make the War God's Ax via Mix and Match, as you don't get the recipe until after you finish this Errand.
One useful tip here involves Swaine's Miracle Move, Light Fingers, which automatically steals the rarest item that a creature has. There are two ways to go about trying to get a Gold Glim to appear in the battles with them. Both involve going All-Out Defense all the time (keep mashing Square), so the rest of your party doesn't kill the enemies. The first way is with defense, defending/evading the enemies' damaging attacks and hoping a Gold Glim pops out after the "Nice" message.
The easier way is by using Oliver's Pulse spell, which ALWAYS produces the "Nice" message and thus increasing your chances of getting a Gold Glim. When you see it, get it with SwaineNow you know what to do, the best options are the Gold Bedraggle in Glittering Grotto for the Kaleidostones and the Gold Honky-Tonker for the Scrolls of Truth. Make sure you use Light Fingers on them and not Mugshot, as only one item can be stolen per battle.

He says he lost it on an island in the middle of the river to the northwest of town. Go to the world map and look to the northwest, where you should see a river. Now you should also see a very tiny island in the middle of this river. Go to that island (it has a few trees on it) and search to find the man's diary. Bring it back to him for your reward.

The man is located near the entrance of Ding Dong Dell, and yet again, he has lost his diary. Exit the town and start heading south, making your way to the autumn-colored trees to the south and slightly west of Ding Dong Dell. There should now be a path that's open that goes a bit more south for a Forest Glade, where you'll see a giant door, a tall NPC with what looks like a rabbit mask, and a purple chest (which has a Wizard King's Secret). As you walk towards the door, keep a lookout for the "!" on the ground, which is where the diary is, so grab it and bring it back.
Note that the NPC you found in the Forest Glade is where Errand 131 starts.
