BARBARIAN QUEST PACK

THE FROZEN HORROR

BARBARIAN QUEST BOOK

The Frozen Horror
These potions may be purchased only between Quests.

Potion of Battle Rage

Cost: 400 Gold Coins
Only the Barbarian can drink this purplered concoction. It grants him 2 attacks per turn as long as there are monsters in sight. As soon as there are no monsters in the Barbarians line of sight, this potions effect wears off.

Potion of Icy Strength

Cost: 200 Gold Coins
This bubbling, orange mixture grants the Barbarian superhuman strength for one turn. After the Barbarian drinks this potion, his next attack causes twice as many Body Points of damage as are rolled on the Combat Dice. No other Hero can use this potion.

Potion of Rejuvenation

Cost: 500 Gold Coins
Any Hero who drinks this bright yellow liquid regains up to 6 lost Body Points. Roll 1d6 to see how many Body Points the Hero gets back. This potion cannot give the Hero more than his starting number of Body Points.

Frost Skin

Cost: 300 Gold Coins
Only the Barbarian is affected by this slushy drink. It enables the Barbarian to roll 2 extra Combat Dice when defending against attacks. As soon as there are no monsters in the Barbarian's line of sight, this potion's effect wears off.
Three of the above potions can be used only by the Barbarian. Different potions may also be purchased from the Alchemist's Shop in other Quest Packs.

The Barbarian Quest Pack

The adventure continues! The Barbarian Quest Pack is an expansion set used with your original Hero Quest Game System. You must have the Game System in order to play the adventures in this booklet. Contents: Plastic Figures: 1 Female Barbarian, 6 Mercenaries, 3 Ice Gremlins, 2 Polar Warbears, 2 Yeti, 1 Frozen Horror; 30 Game Cards, Cardboard Tile Sheet. Cardboard tile sheet includes: 1 Iron Door 1 Wooden Door 10 Slippery Ice Tiles (4 sizes) 1 Bottomless Chasm Tile 6 Blocked Square Tiles 2 Ice Vault Tiles (2 sizes) 2 Icy River Tiles (2 sizes) 1 Ice Slide Tile

New Components:

Monster Assembly The Frozen Horror, Polar Warbear and Yeti require assembly before they can be used. Assemble these monsters as shown below. There are also 6 Mercenaries that sometimes serve as monsters. See Page 5 for more about Mercenaries and how to assemble them.
6 Magical Ice Tiles 1 Living Fog Room 1 Ice Ledge Tile 1 Cage Room Tile 1 Crystal Key Tile 1 Seat of Power Tile 1 Ice Gremlin Treasure Room Tile 8 Skull Tiles
Frozen Horror Polar Warbear Yeti
All cardboard components should be carefully removed from the cardboard sheet. The plastic figures and weapons should be removed from their runners. Discard waste cardboard and plastic. New game components are described at right and on the following pages. Note: The cardboard tiles listed above are two-sided. The front and back of many tiles are different.
New Monsters To learn more about the new monster figures, see the monster cards that came with this Quest Pack, as well as the Monsters Chart at the back of this book.
Note: The new cardboard components are shown below. Next to most components is a matching Quest Map symbol. These symbols appear on each map to show you where to place components on the gameboard. For example, the Iron Entrance door shown below is represented on the Quest Map by the symbol shown to the right of the door. These symbols are also the exact size needed for the blank create your own Quest Map provided in the Game System Quest Book. All you have to do is photocopy the symbols and cut them out.
Door Assembly Take 2 plastic door stands from the Game System. The 2 new doors in this Quest Pack should be folded and fitted into the door bases as shown at right. These doors are described below. Iron Entrance Door This iron door is placed on the edge of the gameboard in many of the Quests. Heroes line up outside the door to begin these Quests. Wooden Exit Door In most Quests, this special wooden door is used to exit the gameboard at the end of a Quest.

Slippery Ice Do not place a slippery ice tile on the gameboard until a Hero steps on the appropriate square. Whenever a Hero moves onto a slippery ice square, the Hero rolls 1 Combat Die. If a White Shield is rolled, the Hero falls and his turn ends immediately. Any other roll means the Hero can continue moving (if he has moves left). The Hero must roll for each slippery ice square moved onto. A fallen Hero cannot take any actions or defend against attacks until his next turn. Monsters are not affected by slippery ice. A slippery ice square cannot be found by searching, nor can it be disarmed. Once it is placed on the gameboard, it can be jumped over as a pit.
Four sizes: 1 Square 1x2 Squares 1x3 Squares 2x3 Squares
Magic Ice These tiles are used with the Ice Bridge spell scroll and the Ice Wall Chaos spell.
Ice Ledge This slippery ledge surrounds a deep crevasse in the icy mountain. The Heroes must walk around the crevasse on the ledge, inches from a fall to the death.
Ice Tunnels A pair of tunnel entrances connect two apparently unconnected rooms via an unseen tunnel. Any Hero or monster landing on one of these entrances immediately moves to the other entrance. After moving from one tunnel entrance to the other, the Hero's or monster's turn is over. Ice Slide
Ice Vault This frigid room drains heat from Heroes. For each turn in which a Hero enters or remains in this room, the Hero rolls 1 Combat Die. He loses 1 Body Point if he rolls a Skull. Monsters are not affected by the heat-draining property of this room.
Do not place the ice slide tile on the game board until a Hero steps on the first square of the slide. Any Hero who does step onto this slippery chute of ice is whisked away in the direction indicated by the arrow. The Hero immediately moves to the last square of the slide. (More than one Hero may occupy the exit square.) This ends the Hero's turn. The slide is hidden and it cannot be searched for as a trap, nor can it be disarmed. When a Hero slips down an ice slide, he rolls 1 Combat Die. He loses 1 Body Point if he rolls a White Shield. Monsters cannot move onto ice slide squares. Heroes cannot climb up an ice slide in the direction opposite to that indicated by the arrow.

The extra Mind Points gained from certain artifacts (such as the Talisman of Lore) can be lost in battle. For example, a Barbarian with the Talisman of Lore (for a total of 3 Mind Points) goes into shock after he accumulates 3 Mind Points of damage. In this and other Quest packs, it is important to keep track of Heroes' current Mind Points. Tell the players to use the bottom row of Body Point boxes on their Character Sheets to record Mind Point damage.
5. Rule Clarifications. Passing Items: A Hero can pass a potion, artifact, weapon, or any other item to another Hero only if the 2 Heroes are in adjacent squares and neither Hero is adjacent to a monster.

Spiral

7. New Traps The Wandering Monster trap, the Stalactite trap and the Swinging Axe trap do not have tiles. Wandering Monster Trap: When a Hero moves onto a square with the trap symbol shown at left, tell the player that the Hero must stop on that square. The monster or monsters listed as wandering monsters for that Quest appear on any square or squares adjacent to the Hero or as close as possible. The monsters immediately attack and the Hero defends. (If the Hero has not already taken an action that turn, he may do so after he defends.) Otherwise, the turn passes to the next player (or to Zargon). Each wandering monster trap can be activated only once. Monsters cannot activate it. Ignore the trap after the first time a Hero springs it. Wandering monster traps are so well concealed that they are not detected when a Hero searches for traps. There are no tiles for wandering monster traps. Stalactite Trap: This deadly spear of ice clings to the ceiling of ice caverns. Unless searched for and disarmed, the stalactite falls upon the first Hero to move onto the trap square, causing 1 Body Point of damage. Monsters do not spring Stalactite Traps. Swinging Axe Trap: When a Hero moves onto this square a huge axe swings out from a hidden alcove in the ceiling. The Hero then rolls 2 Combat Dice and loses 1 Body Point for each Skull rolled. The Hero does not get to roll Defend Dice. A Swinging Axe trap can be searched for and disarmed. Until it is disarmed, a Swinging Axe Trap affects every Hero who steps onto the square. Monsters do not spring Swinging Axe traps.
Stairway: During a Quest, if a Hero stands on a spiral stairway and attacks monsters, the monster can attack back on Zargon's turn. When a spiral stairway is used as the exit at the end of a Quest, any Hero who moves onto that spiral stairway is immediately removed from the game board. Attacks: A Hero rolls Defend Dice once for each attacking monster. For example, a Hero attacked by 3 Zombies gets 3 separate defend rolls. A Hero attacked by a monster with multiple attacks (such as the Polar Warbear), however, gets only 1 defend roll against that monster per turn, no matter how many of the monster's attacks are directed at the Hero.

Multiple

6. Wandering Monsters Several Quests in this Quest Pack have multiple wandering monsters. These monsters may appear if a Hero draws a Wandering Monster Card from the Treasure Card deck or if a Hero moves onto a Wandering Monsters trap (as described later). For example, if the Quest notes say, Wandering Monsters in this Quest: 3 Goblins, place 3 Goblins adjacent to the Hero who initiated the wandering monster encounter. If fewer than 3 adjacent squares are available, place the remaining monsters as close to the Hero as possible. Note: If you run out of the monsters called for, substitute other monsters of similar strength.
8. Large Monsters When a monster takes up more than one square (the Frozen Horror in this Quest Pack, for instance), that monster can attack anyone in any adjacent square (including diagonally), even if the monster's figure is facing away from the target. 9. Selling Excess Items As the Heroes gain better equipment, they can sell some of their old items to the Armory. Only items that are listed for sale in the Armory (on the cardboard platform in the Game System) can be sold back to the Armory. The Hero receives Gold Coins equal to half of the Armory's price when selling items to the Armory. Thus, a Hero who sells a longsword (which costs 350 Gold Coins) back to the Armory receives 175 Gold Coins. Items sold at the Armory for odd sums (the dagger at 25 Gold Coins, for example) can be sold back for half price, rounded down (12 Gold Coins for the dagger). 10. Treasure To eliminate conflicts among the Heroes, large Gold Coin treasures found in treasure chests should be divided among all surviving Heroes. 11. New Treasure Cards The 6 new Treasure Cards should be mixed into the Game System's deck of Treasure Cards before play begins. Draw from this deck when a Hero searches for treasure.
12. New Artifact Cards Amulet of the North, Ring of Warmth and Snowshoes of Speed: These artifacts are similar to the artifacts in the Game System. When a Hero finds one of these artifacts, he should record it on his Character Sheet.
Scroll: Six of the artifact cards in this Quest Pack are spell scrolls. These are used just like the spell cards in the Game System. However, a spell scroll can be used by ANY Hero (not just the Wizard and Elf) who finds one. Note that a spell scroll can be used only once.
When a Hero finds an unnamed spell scroll, Zargon should turn all of the spell scroll cards in this Quest Pack face down, mix them up and let the Hero draw one at random. The Hero should then record the spell scroll on his Character Sheet and return the scroll back to the deck. After a spell scroll has been used, it must be crossed off the Hero's Character Sheet.

13. Mercenaries This Quest Pack contains 6 Mercenary figures, with 12 interchangeable weapons that enable you to put together the 4 different types of Mercenaries (the Scout, the Swordsman, the Crossbowman and the Halberdier. In some Quests, Mercenaries serve as evil monsters who oppose the Heroes. Whenever a Mercenary is shown on a Quest Map, it should be considered a monster controlled by Zargon. Mercenaries are also soldiers who can be hired by a Hero before a Quest begins. They will accompany any Hero on a Quest, if the Hero pays their fee. The fee for each type of Mercenary is given on the Mercenary's Card, as well as on the Mercenaries Chart in the back of this book. The gold must be paid before the Quest begins. Mercenaries may be hired for any group Quest in this Quest Pack, but not for the solo Quests. A Mercenary is controlled by the Hero who hired him. The Mercenary moves and attacks immediately after that Hero's turn. A Hero can control as many Mercenaries as he can afford to hire. A Mercenary can move, open doors, attack and defend as a Hero, but he can take no other actions (except the Scout, who can search for and disarm traps). A Mercenary does not receive any treasure. If a Hero dies on a Quest, any Mercenary hired by that Hero continues on the Quest, controlled by the fallen Hero's player. The Scout, Swordsman, Crossbowman and Halberdier each have different statistics and abilities. These are detailed on the cards that come in this Quest Pack, as well as on the Mercenaries Chart in the back of this book. If a Quest map calls for a type of Mercenary that is not available because they've all been hired by Heroes, Zargon may substitute a different type of Mercenary, or another monster altogether.

Halberdier Attach one of the plastic weapons to each Mercenary as shown.
Zargon study this book carefully! While it is your guide to running these adventures, it may not answer every question you have during play. When in doubt, use your experience and imagination to make the best choice. Remember that you are the ultimate authority in your HERO QUEST world!

A Message from Mentor

elcome, mighty Barbarian! To the land of your youth! It seems only yesterday that the tribal leaders gave you leave to explore the many wonders of the warm lands to the south. You return now as a renowned warrior, tall and strong, well-versed in the skills of battle. Happy though your homecoming is, bitter tidings are on the minds of the tribal elders. They wearily tell you why you have been summoned back to aid your people in their time of need. An ancient evil, long thought banished, has arisen to threaten the Northlands once more. The Frozen Horror has burst forth from the icy tomb where it has rested these last centuries, recovering its strength and awaiting Zargons signal. At last, its master has called it, and the Frozen Horror has returned to its ancient Seat of Power deep within Ice Mountain. It has regained the Scepter of Glacial Majesty, an evil artifact of vast power. As we speak, the Frozen Horror is reviving its minions and enacting its plans to cover the Northlands and the Empire in a shroud of deadly ice. Your people seek a champion to oppose the evil of the Frozen Horror. You have been called in hopes that you might prove to be that champion. To determine your worthiness, the elders have set before you three dangerous Quests. These must be undertaken by you alone. If you survive this test, lead your companions into the depths of Ice Mountain. There you must find and destroy the Scepter of Glacial Majesty before it achieves its full power. Only when the Scepter is no more can you confront the Frozen Horror and destroy it forever. You must call upon all of your courage and skill, Barbarian! The greatest perils you have ever faced await within Ice Mountain. Great, too, is the treasure that will be yours if you succeed. Among the many riches to be found is the Amulet of the North, an ancient artifact that is said to grant its wearer marvelous powers. Good luck, mighty warrior. The fates of many depend on you!

Quest Map Guide
The Quest map symbols are color-coded to help you guide the Heroes through these Quests. Heres what the various map symbol colors mean. Gold: This color is used to highlight traps that the Heroes can detect by searching.
Light Green: This color is used to highlight traps and other hazards that the Heroes can neither see nor detect by searching.
Dark Green: This color is used to highlight monster symbols. See the Monster Chart in the back of this book for actual symbols.
In each Quest, notes prefaced with a capital letter correspond to a matching letter location on the Quest map. Remember that Mercenaries cannot be hired in Quests 1-3.

Turn page for Quest 1

At the beginning of each Quest, read aloud the parchment message from Mentor. The Quest notes that follow the message are for Zargons eyes only!

Quest 1 Solo Quest

Xanon Pass
Good luck, Barbarian, on this, your first of three trials! Servants of the Frozen Horror have overrun the fortress that guards Xanon Pass. This is the only pass over the Cyberian Range, which you must cross to reach Ice Mountain. An iron door is your entry into the fortress. You must find the wooden exit door that leads out to the far side of the pass.

NOTES:

If the Barbarian searches for treasure in this room, 75 Gold Coins are found in the chest. The evil Crossbowman does not move but fires his crossbow at the Barbarian once during each of Zargons turns until the Barbarian reaches him. If the Barbarian moves next to the Crossbowman and attacks, the Crossbowman surrenders immediately, offering his crossbow in exchange for his life. The Crossbowman then runs away. The Barbarian should add the crossbow to his Character Sheet. (See the Armory on the cardboard platform in the Game System for this weapon.) If the Barbarian searches for treasure in the room, a shield is found in the tomb. (See the Armory on the cardboard platform in the Game System for this item.) If the Barbarian searches for treasure in this room, a longsword is found in the weapons rack. (See the Armory on the cardboard platform in the Game System for this weapon.)

Quest 4 Group Quest

The Glacial Gate

You have done well, Barbarian! The tribal elders have appointed you their champion to oppose the Frozen Horror and its minions. Now you and your companionsthe Dwarf, the Elf and the Wizardare ready to assault Ice Mountain. An Iron door is your entry into the outer chambers of the Frozen Horrors subterranean fortress. Find the wooden exit door to enter the deeper recesses of the mountain.
The first Hero to search for treasure in this room finds the Snowshoes of Speed lying atop the tomb. (See the new Artifact Card.) The Heroes see a locked cage in the center of this room. There is an Ice Gremlin inside. It pleads with the Heroes to free it, saying that the Frozen Horror has left it there to die and it wants revenge. If a Hero announces that hes freeing the Ice Gremlin and moves adjacent to the cage, the cage opens. The Ice Gremlin leaps out and steals one item from the Hero who freed it. The Ice Gremlin decides which item to steal, but it cannot be the armor or shield a Hero is using, nor the weapon he is wielding. The item stolen should be crossed off the Heros Character Sheet. The Ice Gremlin immediately disappears through a hole in the floor. (Remove the Ice Gremlin figure from the gameboard.) The first Hero to search for treasure in this room finds a spell scroll hidden in the bookcase. The Hero draws a spell scroll card at random and lists it on his Character Sheet. This chest has a trap with an explosive device. If a Hero searches for treasure before the trap is disarmed, all Heroes in the room lose 2 Body Points. The chest contains 600 Gold Coins. The ice ledge that surrounds the crevasse is very slippery. When a Hero steps through a door and moves onto his first square in this room, he must roll 1 Combat Die. The Hero is safe and can continue moving if a Skull or White Shield is rolled. If a Black Shield is rolled, however, the Hero begins slipping into the crevasse, suffering 1 Body Point of damage. The Hero must immediately roll another Combat Die. If another Black Shield is rolled, the Hero plummets into the crevasse, never to be seen again. Any other roll means the Hero returns to the square in which he entered the room, ending his turn. At the beginning of any turn in which a Hero is in the room, he must first roll to see if he slips into the crevasse.

2 Chaos Warriors

Quest 7 Group Quest

The Halls of Kelvinos

Know Mighty Heroes, that Kelvinos was a Barbarian of great power and fame. Centuries ago, he drove the Frozen Horror from Ice Mountain, ending the reign of terror. Sadly, Kelvinos did not return from that final battle; his body was never found. Some say that he walks again, but as an undead servant of Chaos. You shall start at the iron door and explore until you find the wooden exit door that leads you closer to the Frozen Horror.
The first Hero to search for treasure in this ice vault finds 500 Gold Coins in the chest. The first Hero to search for treasure in this room finds 2 Potions of Healing in the chest. Each potion restores up to 4 lost Body Points. The Barbarian Hero, Kelvinos is now a monster, an undead slave of the Frozen Horror. He is in the square marked with the Barbarian icon. Use the extra Barbarian figure (or any other figure) for Kelvinos. His stats are as follows: The first Hero to search for treasure in this room finds the Amulet of the North in the chest. (See the new Artifact Card.) Few things are as they appear in the living fog room. Monsters and fog likenesses of monsters are all over this room. Whenever a Hero attacks a monster, the Hero first rolls a Combat Die to see if he attacks a fog likeness instead of a real monster. On a roll of Black Shield or Skull, the Hero is confused and attacks a fog likeness. (The Hero wastes his attack.) Only on a roll of a White Shield does the Hero see a real monster. The Hero may then roll his normal attack and the monster defends as usual. The monsters always see the Heroes correctly.

Quest 8 Group Quest
The Search for the Scepter
You have come far, Heroes, but there is still far to go. Nearby is the resting place of the Scepter of Glacial Majesty, the source of much of the Frozen Horrors power. You must find it and destroy it. After you enter through the iron door, search for the scepter. As long as it exists, the Frozen Horror cannot be killed. Once you have destroyed the scepter, find the wooden exit door and go through it to reach the final battle against the Frozen Horror.

This ice tunnel is connected to the ice tunnel in the other room A. Any Hero or monster landing on one of these squares immediately moves to the other ice tunnel square. The first Hero to search for treasure in this room finds a spell scroll hidden in the bookcase. The Hero draws a spell scroll card at random and lists it on his Character Sheet. This chest has a poison needle trap on it. If a Hero searches for treasure before the trap is disarmed, that Hero loses 2 Body Points. The chest contains 200 Gold Coins and 2 Potions of Healing. Each potion restores up to 4 lost Body Points. This ice tunnel is connected to the ice tunnel in the other room D. Any Hero or monster landing on one of these squares immediately moves to the other ice tunnel square. This ice tunnel is connected to the ice tunnel in the other room E. Any Hero or monster landing on one of these squares immediately moves to the other ice tunnel square. See room E of Quest #4 for information on moving along the ice ledge. The Scepter of Glacial Majesty rests in the upper right corner square. The scepter is frozen into the wall. The Heroes can neither move it nor use it. Zargon, tell the Heroes that to destroy the scepter, a Hero must be adjacent to it, attack it and roll at least one Skull on the Combat Dice. The scepter explodes when it is destroyed, inflicting 2 Body Points of damage to all in the room. (Do not tell the Heroes this until it happens.)

3 Ice Gremlins

Zargon, Quests 9 & 10 are actually one double-sized Quest. Notes A through F refer to the Quest 9 map; notes G through M refer to the Quest 10 map. The Heroes will be moving back and forth between these two Quests. Mind and Body Points are not restored when the Heroes cross between Quests 9 & 10. Reset the gameboard (as described in Note A) when the Heroes cross between Quests.
Quest 9 & 10 Double Quest

The Heart of Ice

Now that the Scepter of Glacial Majesty has been destroyed, the Frozen Horror is vulnerable. The time to destroy it is now! Start from the iron entrance door. First, you must find the spiral stairway that leads to the Frozen Catacombs. There you will find the Crystal key. This key will open the final door, the door to the Seat of Power, where the Frozen Horror awaits. Be sure to take Mercenaries along on your Quest!

QUEST 9 NOTES:

This is the spiral stairway that leads to room G in Quest #10. When a Hero moves onto the stairway to enter Quest #10, remove that Heros figure from the gameboard. Tell the players that they cannot enter Quest #10 until all the Heroes have moved onto the stairway. Once all Heroes have moved onto the stairway, remove the Quest #9 setup from the board. When the Heroes return to Quest #9, set out only room A until they explore other rooms. Monsters they killed previously do not reappear. See room D of Quest #7 for more information about the living fog room. This ice tunnel is connected to the ice tunnel in the other room C. Any Hero or monster landing on one of these squares immediately moves to the other ice tunnel square. In the ice vault room, this chest has an exploding latch trap on it. If a Hero searches for treasure before the trap is disarmed, that Hero loses 1 Body Point. The chest contains 400 Gold Coins and 2 Potions of Healing. Each potion restores up to 4 lost Body Points. The first Hero to search for treasure in this room finds a spell scroll and a Potion of Healing on the Alchemists Table. The potion restores up to 4 lost Body Points. For the spell scroll, the Hero draws a spell scroll card at random and lists it on his Character Sheet. The door to the seat of power room will not open until a Hero with the crystal key moves adjacent to it and opens it. See the Monster Chart on the back cover for the Frozen Horrors powers.

2 Polar Warbears

QUEST 10 NOTES:
This stairway is also the way back to Quest #9. The Heroes must return here once they find the crystal key. This ice tunnel is connected to the ice tunnel in the other room H. Any Hero or monster landing on one of these squares immediately moves to the other ice tunnel square. This ice tunnel is connected to the ice tunnel in the other room I. Any Hero or monster landing on one of these squares immediately moves to the other ice tunnel square The first Hero to search for treasure in this room finds a spell scroll and 2 Potions of Healing hidden behind the bookcase. Each potion restores up to 4 lost Body Points. For the spell scroll, the Hero draws a spell scroll card at random and lists it on his Character Sheet. The Ice Gremlin treasure room tile is placed over the two small rooms to make one larger room. If the crystal key was stolen from the Heroes by Ice Gremlins, the key will be here and can be reclaimed by the Heroes. This ice tunnel is connected to the ice tunnel in the other room L. Any Hero or monster landing on one of these squares immediately moves to the other ice tunnel square. This chest has a poison needle trap on it. If a Hero searches for treasure before the trap is disarmed, that Hero loses 2 Body Points. The chest contains the crystal key and a Potion of Healing. The potion restores up to 4 lost Body Points. Give the crystal key tile to the Hero who found it. Note: Once the Frozen Horror has been destroyed this Quest is over. Go to the Conclusion on the next page.

ongratulations, mighty Barbarian! You and your companions have destroyed the Frozen Horror, saving the Empire from an ice-shrouded doom. Zargons plans in the Northlands have been thwarted, thanks to your cunning, bravery and skill. In appreciation of your heroism, the tribal elders have awarded you and your fellow Heroes 1,000 Gold Coins each. We have won this battle, but we must remain vigilant. Zargons power grows still. The Frozen Horror returned once before when the Forces of Good thought it dead, and it may well return again. For now, though, the danger has passed. Your people will sing your praises forever, Barbarian! Centuries from now, your descendants may have to find another champion to defend them against the agents of Chaos. May they find a Hero as worthy as you! Zargons plans in other regions remain unchecked. The Empire is sorely pressed on many fronts. Soon your services will be needed again. I fear that many dangerous tasks still lie ahead of you. But for tonight, you and your companions are honored guests at a great feast. Tales of valor will be told, and there will be much rejoicing. Come receive the thanks of your kinsmen!

The Scout has the Dwarfs ability to detect and disarm traps. Mercenaries do not collect any treasure. Mercenaries can only move, attack and defend (except for Scouts, who can detect and disarm traps). The cost to hire them is for one Quest only. If a player wants to hire a Mercenary for more than one Quest, he must pay the Mercenarys cost for each Quest.

The Frozen Horror can cast the following Chaos Spells: Chill, Ice Storm, Ice Wall, Mind Freeze, Skate and Soothe. Zargon can choose an additional 6 Chaos Spells for the Frozen Horror from any of the Chaos spells in the Game System, with the exception of the Escape spell. During Zargons turn, each Ice Gremlin can either attack a Hero or Mercenary, or it can steal one item from one Hero (Zargons choice). The item stolen cannot be the armor or shield a Hero is using, not the weapon he is wielding. As soon as an Ice Gremlin has stolen an item, it runs away at full speed. The Heroes can chase the Ice Gremlin on their turn. If they catch it and destroy it, they regain the stolen item. If no Hero can see the Ice Gremlin at the start of Zargons turn, the Ice Gremlin has escaped with the item. The item should be crossed off the Heros Character Sheet. Remove the Ice Gremlin figure from the gameboard.

The Polar Warbear attacks once with its mighty paw and once with its spiked mace. Two attacks can be made against one opponent or one attack can be made against each of two different opponents. Whenever the Yetis attack causes a Hero to lose at least 1 Body Point, the Yeti grabs the Hero in a powerful hug. This hug inflicts 2 Body Points of damage to the Hero at the start of each subsequent Zargon turn. The Hero cannot defend against this attack, nor can he take any actions. The Yeti can make no other attacks while hugging. This continues until either the Hero dies or the Yeti is killed by the Heros companions.
