Day
1
Monster
Roll=3
Goblins, Wolves, Ogres, the Octopus, and the Patrol are prowling.
The Ghosts are always prowling.
The
Witch, Amazon, and the Druid have been waylaid by unpleasant crowds,
while the Elf is happy that he was hiding in a clump of wolfbane.
The Captain sells some of his battle-worn armor but is rebuffed
by the Soldiers in his attempt to persuade them to join him. At
the end of the day his friends, the Patrol, drop by. The Wizard
is more successful in his bargaining, and buys a shiny new Axe from
the Guard. The Berserker hurries right by the Statue during the
day and will have to backtrack. The Witch King savors the peaceful
Deep Woods, while the Black Knight hangs back at the Inn with a
tough bunch of Rogues. The White Knight travels through the forests
alone.
In
combat, the monsters take command of the field all over the board
as the characters retreat back toward the Inn leaving the Wolves
nipping at their heels in Linden Woods and the Goblins celebrating
and waiting for reenforcements from their Spear- and Great-Sword-carrying
comrads in Borderland. At the Inn the surly Rogues mutter among
themselves and wait to pick a fight with the returning characters.
