[[Twenty Bear Asses]] is a sub-category of [[Fetch Quest]] that involves going around killing enemies and collecting a certain amount of a specific item that these enemies [[Random Drop|randomly drops]]. They are most common in [[Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game|MMORPG]]s. The common hypothetical example involves a woodsman NPC asking the [[Player Character]] to deliver [[MacGuffin|20 sections of bear]] to him.
 
This sort of quest can draw attention to the inherent [[Fridge Logic]] of Random Drops, such as when the drop in question is a vital body part that all monster corpses should have, like a liver, feet, or a ''head''. A flimsy justification is that the body part may have been compromised during the fight. Turns out only ''pristine'' bear asses will do, even when the woodsman just wants twenty bears dead and doesn't actually want to make anything out of the bear asses. That is one picky woodsman.
