Quest Goals

In all o the ollowing text,hero does not apply to the trai-tor hero.

Te heroes win this quest bybreaking the curse that aects thetraitor hero. o do this, the he-roes must rst nd all o the miss-ing heirlooms (except or the oneowned by the traitor). Ten, theymust either deeat the traitor or

they must all return to town.

I the overlord activates thetraitor beore the last heirloom isound and the heroes deeat the

traitor, the heroes then still needto recover all o the heirloomsand deeat the traitor again. Eachtime the traitor is deeated beorethe last heirloom is ound, he re-spawns in town as a normal hero(and the overlord can reactivate

him on the overlords turn byspending 10 threat).

Te traitor is automatically ac-tivated with the last heirloom isound. I the heroes have any runekeys, then the traitor is also con-sidered to have them, even i he isactivated.

sixth paragraph under Teraitor should read:

Area 5

While possessing the demon,a hero cannot take Battle, Ready,or Run actions, he may only takeAdvance actions. In addition to itsother abilities, the possessed demonmay destroy rubble tokens (or anyother obstacle blocking his path) byspending one movement per squarethat the obstacle occupies.

Even though multiple heroes

can possess the demon at the sametime, the demon only gets one ac-tivation per hero turn, so all he-roes possessing the demon mustagree on how the demon acts.

Te seventh paragraph underPossessing the Demon shouldread:

I the demon is killed in any

area except Area 7 while under theheroes control, the heroes imme-diately lose 4 conquest tokens, (re-

gardless o how many heroes werepossessing the demon). Ten, treatthe demon as i it had just succeed-ed at an Undying roll and returnit to the oerlords control. In otherwords, leae the demons gure inits original position and remove

all wound tokens and any status

tokens on it.

Next, the oerlord may imme-diately spawn two Master Sorcerers

ollowing all the rules or spawningmonsters. Finally, all heroes thatwere possessing the demon then

place their hero gures on or adja-cent to the nearest actiated glyph.

I two glyphs are equally distantom where the hero was killed,

the hero chooses at which glyph torespawn.

Remember, while the demonis under the oerlords control it is

immune to the attacks and eectso other monsters and cannot passthrough the rif. (In other words,the oerlord cannot hae the othermonsters attempt to kill the demonor move it out o reach beore theheroes can repossess it.

Area 7

Te rst paragraph aer the de-scriptive text should read:

Only demons and master mon-sters can pass through the rif...

Tis scenario requires Descent:Journeys in the Dark, Te Well ofDarkness, Te Altar of Despair, andTe Road to Legend.

Quest GoalsAll six cubes or this scenario

can be built at once using one copyo each o the products listed above.o build all six cubes, you will needto use the our-way intersection tile

rom Te Road to Legend that hasa pre-printed pit space. Te spaceshould be ignored or this scenarioand treated as normal foor space.

You will also need to use the our-way intersection rom Te Altar ofDespair with printed corrupted ter-rain - we recommend using this (andthree corrupted endcaps) or cube 6and playing with the rules or cor-

rupted terrain.

Te rst description underQuest Goals should read:

Your goal is to seal the ChaosCube by deeating the ile demon,Oktakoron. You begin with 8 con-quest tokens. I you run out o con-quest tokens, Oktakoron is ictori-ous and all o reality is destroyed.

Chaos Cube PhasesWhen a hero shis rom one

cube to the next, he is not con-sidered to be moving or enter-ing a new space. Tis means anyorder tokens come with theheroes when they shi to a newcube. Tis also means that heroes

shiing into Cube 6 are not a-ected by Oktakorons Aura 2ability until they actually spendmovement points to enter squaresadjacent to him.

Movement, Line of Sight,and Monster Spawning

All six cubes are considered re-vealed at the start o the scenario.However, the overlord should stillread the description or each cubeas the heroes enter them.

It is possible or a large g-ure (such as a giant) to stand ontwo cube aces at the same time.

However, all gures must alwaysully occupy squares on the actualdungeon tiles.

A gure can draw line o sightto any square except or the oursquares on the cube ace directlyopposite to the cube ace in whichit is standing. Other gures and ob-stacles block line o sight normally.

Te second paragraph underthe descriptions or Cube 2-5should read:

Instead o playing a spawn cardon his turn, the oerlord may in-

stead use one o the ollowing specialspawning rules or Cube 2, 3, or 4.

Please reer to the ollowing chartor special spawning rules:

Tere can never be more thanone Golem in play in any cube, andthere can never be more than oneGiant in play in any cube. Te over-lord can never spawn any monster inCube 1 or Cube 6.

reacheryTe treachery values or this sce-

nario should be 2 Event, 4 rap, and2 Monster.

ChestsWhen a chest is opened, each

hero gets one treasure, then rolls awhite die and gets the result based onthe range value rolled. In both cases,

what the hero gets is based on thecube he is currently occupying, notwhere the chest is opened.

Example: Sir Valadir is in Cube 2and Mad Carthos is in Cube 3. MadCarthos opens the silver chest inCube 3 and gets a silver treasure, thenrolls a white die and gets a result o 1

range, which grants him 200 coins.Because Sir Valadir is in Cube 2, (acopper chest cube) he gets a coppertreasure, then rolls a white die andgets a result o 3 range, which grantshim a potion o his choice.
