Some of you may remember the Forumnauts and the Quest for the Holy Grail. No, the grail was not found. This is thread follows in that style of that thread.
Along with the story will be puzzles to be solved. As the Puzzlesmaster, I am the only user with the correct solutions to the puzzles. Also, I will not be giving any hints or clues directly. In the event that a puzzle is unsolved for too long, clues will be provided in the subsequent story updates with the aid of an NPC. He will aid in plot and clue-giving if necessary. The Knights may also be participating, but they do not have clue-giving.
There are no secret words this round. Well, there are secret words, but not secret words to be posted to the secret thread. Credit will go to the first person who solves each puzzle. There may be multiple puzzles and secrets in each puzzle released.
Puzzles released will be infrequent. Please wait patiently between puzzles.
In summary:
Story, puzzles, and clues come from the story thread. Please do not post there.
Puzzle discussion can go on in this thread.
The first puzzle is up. Get solving!

Another thing, all of these bunnies are in threads Gantic made himself, so I'd recommend checking those threads. There is always a chance he could edit the OP.
When I was working on the crossword I got "adnexa" for 29 instead of "addons". I didn't think much of it until now but that allows for 42 to be "hehe" and 50 across to be "IRAs", both of which work with Chordata.
What do you see wrong with 24 and 35?
As for the word scramble, out of desperation I put "ceeky" into an anagram solver (dictionary of 290 000 words) and it came up with nothing. Same with a couple other websites. Eventually I found one that allowed for proper nouns and it came up with one word, "Yecke" the last name of a politician in the US. I assume this means that at least some of the words are not "real" words, which means they are usernames or slang used only on AG.
