Quest Objectives
Complete the objectives in order:
- Lure Darkness: Lure Baalberith outside of Heaven, in front of the Gates of Heaven.
- Purge Darkness: Kill Baalberith.
Quest Special Rules
The 3 Seals: The Objective tokens represent the Seals. In order to open the Gate and lure Baalberith out of Heaven, the Heroes must break all 3 Seals. Any Hero standing in a Zone with an Objective token may spend 1 action to break the Seal. Discard the Objective token, then each Hero immediately gains 5 XP.
The Gates of Heaven: The door with a yellow outline is locked and represents the Gate of Heaven. It cannot be opened until all 3 Seals have been broken.
Purge Darkness: Baalberith cannot be attacked or targeted by any abilities or effects until the Heroes manage to Lure him out of Heaven (Tile 4A). Once Baalberith is outside of Heaven, he can be attacked and targeted as usual. Players cannot go back into Heaven after this point.
Baalberith Acts: At the end of each Enemy Phase Baalberith activates following the 2 steps below.
Step 1 – Roll 2 Enemy dice and check the effect:
- 0 [Enemy die symbol] – Each Hero takes 1 Wound and discards 1 [blue starburst icon].
- 1 [Enemy die symbol] – Move each Enemy in the same Tile as Baalberith by 1 Zone toward its closest Hero.
- 2 [Enemy die symbol] – Place the Hero with the least Health in the same Zone as the Hero with the most Health and attack them (even if self). The Hero that is moved does not take Reaction Damage, and when assembling their attack dice pool, do not add the [purple die face]. This roll is not affected by any skill or ability, nor generates Mana.
Step 2 – Move Baalberith 2 Zones toward the closest Hero. If Baalberith reaches that Hero's Zone, it attacks that Hero with 3 [yellow attack die] and 2 [orange attack die].
Once Baalberith is outside of Heaven, it can then be targeted as usual. When attacked, Baalberith's Defense dice are 5 [blue defense die] and 1 [grey defense die], and has a total Health of 15 per Hero. As soon as Baalberith is killed, the Quest ends in victory.
