Aventure Cards

Card back label on each: AVENTURE. The card header line reads as printed on the sheet (for example "OBJET 5 OBJET"); the number before each type label is printed on the sheet but its meaning is not explained there.

Clé (Key)

Header as printed: OBJET 5 OBJET. Card name: CLÉ.

Possession card. You may use the Key to open the portal of Power. Roll one die:

• 1-2: the portal opens; go to the Plain of Peril.
• 3-4: the lock holds; roll the die again on your next turn.
• 5-6: the Key is not the right one; place it on the discard pile.

Pillard (Raider)

Header as printed: ENNEMI 2 ENNEMI. Card name: PILLARD. Printed stats: Strength 5, Craft 5 (FORCE 5 HABILETÉ 5).

Enemy card. The Raider attacks by Strength on a die roll of 1 to 3, and by Craft on a die roll of 4 to 6.

Instead of taking a Life, he takes a possession at random. If you have no possessions, he takes a Life from you or kills one of your Followers (your choice).

Hydra

Header as printed: ENNEMI 2 ENNEMI. Card name: HYDRA. Printed stat: Strength 4 (FORCE 4).

Enemy card. A monstrous four-headed hydra occupies the region and attacks everything that passes through it. Place a total of 4 Lives on the Hydra. If it is defeated in combat, it loses one Life. The Hydra dies when its last Life is lost.

Lyre

Header as printed: OBJET MAGIQUE 5 OBJET MAGIQUE. Card name: LYRE.

Magic possession card. When you come into possession of the Lyre, you gain a Spell if your total Craft allows it. The music of the Lyre lets you charm an enemy, or a player who attacks you. Roll one die:

• 1: the opponent attacks you at +1 on its attack roll.
• 2-4: no effect.
• 5-6: you may escape, and the opponent does not attack.
