Plots

Each plot card below is the card as printed. The first line is the card's title, followed by its card code.

The Ivory Spire

• Card code: PT23.

In the clearing stands a towering column of ivory that reaches out of the opening of the cavern ceiling and into the night sky above. You can feel an overpowering urge to touch the spire. You approach and reach out your hand...

If the morality tracker is in the positive...

You feel an electric charge from the spire as you collapse to the ground.

Gain Blessing Tokens equal to your position on the morality tracker.

If the morality tracker is in the negative...

You are pushed backward and hear a loud thundering noise from behind you. You turn to see a magic gate open and an enemy entering from the other side. The gate closes and you must fight!

Draw 1 enemy card and add 3 to their initial damage and 6 to their health.

The Old Book

• Card code: PT24.

In the clearing sits a perfect cube of marble slightly shorter than you are tall. Resting on top is a large book, the pages turning as if the light breeze was fingering through them.

Attempt to approach the book?

You walk towards the book. A few steps forward and you feel the floor sink. A TRAP! A large bladed pendulum swings down and you take 2 damage. Carefully, you make your way to the book.

The pages of the book are blank, but somehow you feel as though you have just read a dozen books.

Gain 1 random skill.

Reading is for dum-dums!

You walk around the huge cube, hugging the outer wall and make your way to the passageway on the other side.

The Surly One

• Card code: PT22. The card title is printed as "The Surly One."

In the clearing you see a figure pacing back and forth rubbing his hands together. On closer inspection you hear him mumbling curses to himself. He notices you and in a gruff tone says, "Leave me be! I am cursed."

Visit with the lost soul?

You calm the man and offer to share a meal with him. You both sit for a spell. He says little but eagerly eats. As you part ways, you notice he is remains seated and is no longer mumbling.

Discard 1 ration. Move up 2 on the morality track.

Leave the man be?

Nothing gained nor lost as you leave the man behind.

Rob the man?

You strong-arm the man and force him to empty his pockets.

Gain 1 potion. Move down 2 on the morality track.
