Initial version (2026-03-24)
Pororin Research Institute is a faction quest belonging to the Pororin Forest Guardians quest line in Crimson Desert. Completing this quest unlocks access to the research facility inside Pororin Forest village, where you can invest silver into research projects that yield blueprints, alchemy formulas, dispatch missions, and gathering bonuses.
You must first complete the Trembling Woods quest (also called The Unreachable Village), which grants permanent access to the Pororin Forest Village and Florindale. This quest triggers after entering Pororin Forest three times: each time the Shai children knock Kliff unconscious with sleep darts. On the third visit, a Shai named Arkin appears and tasks you with recovering the Pororin Relic from a giant Ent in Trembling Gorge.
After retrieving the relic and gaining village access, bring the lead researcher 5x Lavender to activate the institute. Complete a short introductory side quest for the researcher to unlock the first research option.
The Pororin Research Institute offers the following projects. Each project costs silver and takes real time to complete. Subsequent rows may require additional Knowledge before they can be started.

Some later projects require you to speak with other researchers in the area or observe objects and structures to gain the necessary Knowledge before they become available.
