At the start of the game, each player receives one of these Qualities cards. Players may decide freely who receives which card, or choose at random. Players should agree among themselves.
Each player places the Qualities card they received face up in front of them, so that everyone can check it, and its effect applies.
Qualities Cards
Exceptional Agility (類まれなる敏捷性)
You must become the player who takes the first turn.
Immediately before the game begins, look at one Ruins card. You may exchange it with a card in your hand.
Brain of a Strategist (参謀の頭脳)
During the Exploration phase, explore in order from the highest exploration number to the lowest (however, a × cannot explore). If another player has the same exploration number as you, only you are not eliminated.
Servant Disposition (家来気質)
Choose the player to your left as your [Master], and you become their [Follower]. If the Master wins the game, the Follower also wins. If the Master is eliminated from the game, the Follower is also eliminated.
Homicidal Maniac (殺人狂)
When your card effect eliminates some other player, you win the game.
Bad Habit (悪い手癖)
When you draw with "①Draw," you may, instead of drawing, add 1 card from the discard pile of the player to your left to your hand.
Insatiable Curiosity (飽くなき探求心)
You may still take part in the Exploration phase even after being eliminated. In that case, the exploration number of cards in your hand is treated as 9.
A Glimpse of Kingship (王の片鱗)
During the Exploration phase, if the exploration number of a card in your hand is ×, that card's exploration number is treated as 1.
Dog-like Sense of Smell (犬並の嗅覚)
During the Exploration phase, the exploration number of cards in your hand is treated as 4.5. (You may explore between 4 and 5.)
