Mages

This expansion adds two Mages, each with a Favorite School of Magic and one Custom Spell.

Each of the two Mages has: 1 Model, 1 Mage Sheet, 3 Custom Spell Cards, 1 Power Point Token, and 10 Trophy Tokens.

Marco

Favorite School of Magic: Illusion

Custom Spell: Invisibility

Straight Effect When you are the Target of a Spell, you may trigger this Protection: Ignore the Effects of the Spell, then gain 1 Power Point.

Reverse Effect When you are the Target of a Combat Spell, you may trigger this Protection: Ignore the Effects of the Spell, and choose 1 of the following Effects:

  • Happy: Gain 1 Power Point.
  • Sad: Shift to the current Room of the caster of the Spell, and inflict 1 Damage on them.

Geneve

Favorite School of Magic: Conspiracy

Custom Spell: Danse Macabre

Straight Effect Shift to the Target Model's current Room, then move both your Mage and the Target Model up to 2 Rooms. Inflict 1 Damage on the Target Model for each Room moved. Any effect that forbids movement also prevents this Spell from moving the Target Model.

Reverse Effect Shift to the Target Mage's current Room, then move both your Mage and the Target Mage to an adjacent Room (any effect that forbids movement also prevents this Spell from moving the Target Mage). Then, steal 1 Power Point from the Target Mage.
