No, you didn't. You wrote:
print('''Ah, so your name is %s, your quest is %s, and your
favorite color is %s.''') % (name, quest, color)

You are using Python 3. In Python 3, "print" is a function that returns
None. So, the error is exactly correct. To fix it, you need to have the %
operator operate on the string, not on the result of the "print" function:
print('''Ah, so your name is %s, your quest is %s, and your
favorite color is %s.''' % (name, quest, color))
