WO dice, a pencil and paper are all you need to

journey through the catacombs of Llamar. Use the

pencil and paper to draw a map of your progress through

the catacombs, as you may not succeed in your quest the

first time and the map will help you in future attempts.

Before you begin, you must determine your character-

istics of Dexterity, Strength and Valour. Record these on

the Quest Sheet along with any other items and

information you discover, that you need to keep note of.

magical item or by eating a meal. You must remember that

your Dexterity, Strength and Valour points must not

exceed their initial value which you determined at the

start of the game.

Further, once your Valour score reaches zero it can

then go no lower. If your Valour is reduced to zero, you

are not dead, but you will find that the going gets very

difficult.

Dexterity – Roll one dice. Add 6 to this number and

make a note of it on your Quest Sheet. This indicates

your skill and swordsmanship.

Strength – Roll two dice. Add 12 to this number and

make a note of it on your Quest Sheet. This indicates

your stamina and fitness.

Valour – You start the adventure with 12 Valour

points. These indicate your resistance to evil and at the

beginning of the adventure your resistance is strong. As

you journey through the catacombs, however, you will

face many dangers which will test your courage and

purity of heart. Your Valour points will therefore be

reduced each time the Forces of Darkness weaken your

spirit and win a victory over you.

Losing and gaining points

In some sections, you will be awarded extra points. (For

example, you may read “Gain three Strength points”).

You add these to your current Strength score: but

remember, these scores may never exceed their Initial

values. When you lose points (for example, “Lose one

Dexterity point and two Strength points”), you simply

deduct these from your current scores.

From time to time, you will be asked to test your

Valour. To do this, throw two dice. If the numbers on

both dice add up to the same as, or less than your Valour

score, you have succeeded in overcoming the evil forces

which are constantly trying to make you fail in whatever

you attempt. If, however, the numbers add up to more

than your Valour score, the Dark Powers have turned

your luck against you. In either case you will be told

which section to turn to.

Your Dexterity, Strength and Valour points will vary

during the adventure. You may lose Strength points in

battle, for example, and then restore them with some

Replenishing your Strength

The food that you have in your backpack is enough for

five meals. Make a note of this on your Quest Sheet.

Eating a meal restores five Strength points. When you

stop for a meal, add five points to your current Strength

score and deduct one from your rations. You may do this

at any time except during a battle.

Rules for fighting

As you explore, you will encounter creatures which

you may choose to engage in combat, or be forced to

fight with for your life. Each creature will have its own

Dexterity and Strength scores, given in the text. Make

a note of these.

To resolve a battle:

1. Roll two dice, and add the creature’s current

Dexterity score. This is its Fighting Power.

2. Roll two dice, and add your own current

Dexterity score. This is your Fighting Power.

3. If your Fighting Power is greater than the

creature’s, you have scored a blow and wounded it.

Subtract two Strength points from its Strength score at

that moment (unless told otherwise in the text). If the

creature’s Fighting Power is greater than yours in this

round, it has wounded you. Subtract two points from

your current Strength Score. If both scores are the

same, you have parried each other’s blows, and neither

of you loses any points.

The next round in the battle is done in just the same

way. You repeat steps 1, 2, and 3 above. When either

your or the creature’s Strength score is reduced to

zero, the battle is over. A zero Strength score means

death.
