I was wondering just at WHAT point does the game decide to give you a
particular Quest, and how random are each of the various Quests?
(ie. Do some Quests come up more frequently than others).  I ask this
because my friend Dave has played most of the game twice now, and has
yet to see those involving Anvil of Fury and Lachdanan.

For example, in order to give you the scenario with The Butcher, the
game must generate Level 2 with the guy's den and the Cleaver AS WELL
AS Level 1 at the same time.  Does this mean that all the Quests are
predetermined from the onset -- depending on what Seed your whole
dungeon has -- or is there a different Seed for each grouping of
Church, Catacombs, Hell levels, etc.  Is there no way to select a
particular seed for your dungeon?
