How to Read the Enemy Sheets
Each enemy has up to three enemy scroll pages and a set of enemy cards. The scroll pages are printed in the order transcribed here (they are not numbered on the sheet). Each scroll shows, for each activation roll result (0, 1, 2, 3, and +), the action the enemy takes; below that, its abilities; and at the foot, its attacks.
- Attack rows list the attack name, then the numbers and icons printed on that row, then the effect printed at the right (for example Poison I, Slow, Lethal).
- Enemy cards show each enemy's stat row: any resistance line (for example
All: -1orArcane: -1), combat values, a heart value (health), a gold value, and a purple badge. Where the set prints a value under a player-count label (2 3 4 5), the label is shown as printed. - Badges and symbols at the top of a scroll or card (coloured rank letters such as B and R, a green circle with a number, a top-right symbol) are described in each section where they appear.
- Where a card's value could not be matched to its icon from the sheet alone, the value is given as printed with its icon described, rather than assigned a meaning.

Wormoon and Alien Queen (Master Enemies)
The two Master Enemy sheets each have a front (Evolution I) and a back (Evolution II). The Evolution I side is on the -F files; the Evolution II side is on the -B-EN files, which carry readable rules text, so both are transcribed. Each sheet is headed "Monster - Evolution I" or "Monster - Evolution II". Each sheet carries the keyword Vengeful at the top.

- Roll +: Move up to 2 areas toward the menacing hero. Use Call The Swarm. Use Burrowing I.
Abilities:
- Rock Skin: This enemy counts as 4 figures for controlling/dominating its area and ignores Bash, K.O. and Poison effects.
- Feral Senses: This enemy can directly target any Hidden or invisible hero.
- Worm Evolution: When the Wormoon reaches 0 HP, the heroes gain Treasures and Soul Points, then flip this card to the Evolution II side (removing all wounds, Body Conditions, and tokens), then this enemy gains +1 [icon].
- Burrowing I: Roll a [die icon]. If [burrow icon]: until its next activation, this enemy ignores any attack it defends and cannot be directly targeted by heroes.
- Call The Swarm: If able: activate the highest Rank Monster - Horde enemy in play, otherwise spawn one Monster - Horde enemy in the Wormoon's area.
Attack block (as printed):
- Bite: 2 · 2 · 2 · -1 [icon] · Poison II · Critical. Resistance line: [blue shield icon] All: -2. Value: 2 [icon].
