A [[ferry]] refers to a [[character]] that takes other characters to otherwise unreachable [[outpost]]s or [[campaign]]s. This is possible due to the game mechanics that allow a [[party]] leader that meets the requirements for a [[quest]] to include party members who do not. In contrast, [[running]] allows party members to quickly reach an already accessible area by avoiding confrontation with [[foe]]s along the way. Both runners and ferries might charge fees for their services.

The ferry obtains the relevant quest, invites however many ''clients'' as they can take, and follows the various steps in the quest to reach the intended destination. To continue ferrying, that character can abandon and retake the quest.
