Slayer

Take a task from the Slayer master (3 to choose from, matched to your Slayer level), pack food and set off. Each kill takes about 3 minutes, and a trip ends when the task is done, the food runs out or 8 hours pass. Your hero always comes home safely and keeps everything earned. A task left unfinished carries on next trip.

Rare creatures

Now and then a rare creature finds you on a Slayer trip and follows you home: each kill has a 0.9% chance, so a normal 20 to 30 kill trip meets one about 1 time in 5. One waits at a time, for 24 hours, with a Fight button on your hub.

It's a boss fight played alone and to the end: your weapon's moves, potions and weapon swaps, and its big move announced a turn early. If you're knocked out or walk away, it's gone for good, so eat first. A win pays gold, parts and Slayer XP, with a 25% chance of its tool or ring (whichever you have fewer of), certain on the 4th win without one. Those drops can't be crafted.
