Objective: Find the Engineering Chamber and shut down all 3 Boilers there.
While exploring the ancient, frozen ruins of the Targa Plataeu, you have accidentally tripped some sort of chain reaction. The ancient biolers are overloading and set to blow! Echoing through the empty streets and halls, an alien voice that can only be a warning of iminent meltdown to come blasts your ears, counting down to your destruction!
Reward:50 XP and 50% chance to gain a Targa Artefact, per player. Failure: The bioler explodes. All Heroes gain 1 Permanent Injury in addition to any they gained during the Mission.
Conditions
May Not Flee this mission.
The Posse starts in the Targa Plateau.
No Gates in this mission.
Targa Pylons Activated - All Passages automatically have 0-2 Targa Enemies on them, ready to Attack. No Loot is gained from defeating this type of Pylon.
Hard to Hold Back the Darkness - the roll must be 1 Higher to succeed.
Void Cascade and Warning Sirens - while the darkness has moved to the middle of escaping, each hero takes 1 Horror Hit at he start of their turn, due to the void energy pouring down the halls and alien sirens blasting their ears. If the Darkness reaches the final stage, every hero takes 2 Corruption instead.
2 Clues must be found to discover the Engineering Room. There is an Epic Threat there (boss fight).
A hero may give up their attack to make a Strength 6+ or Cunning 5+ test to disarm a boiler while on it's space. Gain 20 xp when successful and one of the boilers is shut down.
3 Boilers must be shutdown and any enemies defeated to succeed the mission.

Danger! Exposed Lava
! While in the Caverns of Cynder, Heroes must be aware of exposed Lava. Lava spaces are indicated by Orange text and a glowing outline. Each Lava Space has it's own dodge value, written below.
When moving through a lava space, a hero rolls 1d6 (2d6 if they have 4+ Agility). If their roll is equal or higher then the dodge value of that space, they successfully navigate the lava without incident. If they fail, that hero takes 1-3 Burning Markers. Enemies are not affected by Lava Spaces unless a Hero forces an Enemy into a Lava space (e.g. using an item or ability).
Burning Markers: At the start of a creatures's turn, if that creature has burning markers, one of the burning markers is removed and that creature immediately takes 2 damage without a defense roll.
It's unclear exactly what's inside...The room can be revealed by anyone standing on squares C6 and C7, or if someone enters the room. Otherwise, it will reveal itself at the end of the turn.
B and D rooms are currently unscavenged.
Pastor Jimmy moves up. No one has physical injuries to heal, although Fear seems a little shaken by some coin he found in the ash. Pastor Jimmy tries to cast Shield of Light but fails to do so twice, using up his faith for this round. He may spend determination to reroll if he wishes, though the effects will wear off before a fight should one break out.
If you would like to skip your movement and end your turn, let me know. Movement:Reminder: You may spend a DT to gain bonus movement.
Luciel is OOM. Fear has 4 movement left this turn. Aaron Goldfeld has 6 movement left this turn. Pastor Jimmy has 1 movement left this turn. He waits...
Something has awoken deep in the Caverns of Cynder, an ancient evil hellbent on the destruction of the world. All it wishes for is to be free of it's hellish prison, but should it escape...
Recent expeditions into the Caverns of Cynder have left the seals vulnerable and weakened. These seals are what hold it in it's fiery tomb. Massive quakes shake the earth to it's very core as towns around the entrypoint collapse into pits of fire that have erupted in the desert floor.
The seals must be repaired before it is too late.
Reward: Based on chosen Mission Length - Each hero gains 25 xp and 2 loot cards per seal in the mission. If The End Times mission length is played, each Hero gains 1-3 Health/Sanity (any mix) permanently for saving the world. Failure: Each Hero permanently loses 1-3 Health Sanity (any mix). If the End Times mission is played, the Heroes have destroyed the world. So we can do this if needbe, but I kind of like the idea of y'all blowing up their world, so I might keep it cannon for that Posse. Up for discussion though - Only leaping into a parralel dimension Gate can save them from being destroyed along with it, but they must live the rest of their lives knowing what they wrought.
Conditions
This mission starts in the Cavern's of Cynder.
Tokens are drawn differently. Depending on the Adventure length, the initial tile drawn has the choice of 1-3 exits. Each of those exits have 3 Exploration Tokens assosciated with them, of which only 1 is a clue.
Everytime a Clue is found, the Heroes have found a Broken Seal. Any Hero starting their activation on a Map Tile with a Broken Seal on it automatically takes 1 Corruption Hit from the void energies swirling around it.
Repairing a Seal - A Hero adjacent to a seal may attempt to fix it by giving up their attack action. They must make a Lore 6+ test. If passed, the Hero gains 50 xp and the Seal is repaired.
There are no Gates.
Heroes are experiencing Immediate Dread - Growing Dread cards are revealed instantly.
Quickening Pace of Darkness - Whenever the Darkness moves forward, it moves 1 extra space per each Broken Seal that has already been repaired.

@Majoras End Inventory updated @CollectorofMyst Inventories updated, Jamie's haunted sash is up there now. You two let me know if there are any discrepancies.
At some point I need to go through the character tab because theres some weird stuff going on with people's carryweights ect.
@Duskshine749 I forget, did you want to transfer any of Tim's stuff or just convert it into sweet sweet gold?
Granlow nodded. "Certainly," he replied to Jameson and Vadania, rising to his feet."I will send a runner at once to ask Marlow to open up shop for us. I do believe he's seen a dip in buisness recently, so he will no doubt be happy for the oppurtunity." He gestured open-palmed to the door after everyone had satisfied themselves with dinner.
The air had a bitter bite to it as you approached the General Store, the bulky form of Marlow and a couple of his sons standing in the doorway. They shoo you into the warm and Marlow gladly dithers on as you inspect his wares and make your various purchases. With the final gold exchanged and sales struck, you head towards the northwest gate, the main exit from the town. The lanterns cast sharp shadows as you make your way through, the guards wearing stony expressions as you pass them, their faces obscured by their helmets.
The wall of wind hits you as you exit and find yourself on the winding path down the steep hill. From Fort Rock you can see the surrounding area clearly, and sure enough, stretching out on the plains below you, you can see the stranger's lights and outlines of caravans in the full moonlight. The sound of their laughter and merryment carries clearly up to the wall. No doubt the guards above you on the ramparts are jealous of their revelry.
The message Granlow has given you to relay is a straightforward but harsh one: If they don't leave before Dawn, their wagons will be burnt to the ground." the words echo in your ears as you down the hill and approach the camp.
The chamberlain's information had been accurate. Around a dozen and more men and women are gathered around a crackling bonfire, some dancing around the light while others sing otherworldly lilting music. Some instead prefer to content themselves with their flasks and wineskins. Four barrel-topped wagons are parked at odd angles around the centre bonfire, the shadows of the dancers growing long against the brightly coloured ornamentation of their vehicles. A whinny rises from a nearby tree, and you look over to see a collection of draft horses grazing among it's gnarled roots, the bangles and tassels of their vivid coats catching the firelight.
A thickly accented male voice calls to you, nonchalant. "Ho there, friends! A nice little camp of mine, isn't it? I would be Stanimir, and I speak for us here. To what do I owe the pleasure of such a thoughtful visit under the full moon?" His intelligent eyes twinkle with mirth as he greets you from the fireside, and you look over to see an old man wrapped in a heavy cloak. To his right sits a woman with a striking face and silky raven hair, and to his left a strong-jawed muscled man who lazes beside the log the other two are perched on. Mirror and Vadania note the trio all bear the same bright blue eyes.
Post will be up shortly, let me know if you are buying supplies / what you are buying. We'll move forward to the caravan area with a pitstop at the General Store.
EDIT: Post up. Feel free to let me know if you are doing something specific at any particular mentioned in the post.
