ADVENTURE BOOK

CINDERFALL
I. Under a Twisted Sky
Red dust swirled across a desolate sky in thick
copper clouds, bearing upon it noxious brimstone
fumes and a heat like unto the very forges of Sigmar.
The wailing cries of a hundred thousand gibbering
horrors floated in the howling wind.
The sounds were coming nearer.
Vienar Braxis crumpled to his knees in the dust,
unable to take another step. His breath rasped in the
confines of his golden helm, thick and labored. He
touched his gauntlet-clad fingers to his side and
looked at them. His armored hand came away
smeared red with blood.
The wound was deep, assuredly mortal.
He felt a cold chill of fear. Not another reforging.
He couldn't bear another. Each time he was brought
back through that veil of lightning the memory of his
Christibelle faded a little further from his mind.
She had been dead a thousand years ago on a
world which no longer existed, and the memory of
her was all he had left, the only thing to which he
could cling. When she had left his mind completely,
he thought, then the slender tendril of sanity would
snap, and he would be lost to the abyss.
The wailing was coming nearer.
He turned back. There were two other men
slumping through the red dust, now far behind, their
golden armor tarnished and their fur cloaks limp and
torn. A sharp cry cut the air, but this one did not
speak in the undulating shriek of daemon tongue.
Vienar lifted his eyes and saw his aetherwing bank
and descend, and he felt a ghost of a smile play at
his lips.
The iridescent bird descended in a flutter of indigo
and vermilion. Its clever eyes took in the state of its
keeper, and Vienar thought he saw sadness in the
bird's gaze.
“I thought you were dead for sure, Jixitla,” he
rasped.
The bird squawked and hopped a little, indignant
at the suggestion.
Vienar looked ahead. He could see the swirling
silver light of the portal, perhaps a quarter of a mile
on. It might as well have been a thousand leagues.
He would not rise again, and he knew it now for sure.
Page 1
He lifted a clumsy and quivering hand to his neck
and he removed the object which hung there. An
ornate amulet cast in a strange metal for which he
knew no name. The object seemed to quiver and
writhe in his palm. He would not look at it. For this,
they had crossed the realms. For this, they had
walked the red desert and done battle with the very
creatures of hell. For this, he was going to die.
He hung the cord about the aetherwing's long
neck. The bird shied away from it at first, as if it
disliked the feel of the strangely cold metal against
its body, but it did not refuse the burden.
“Go,” Vienar choked, “through the portal to the
Lord-Castellant. He'll know what it means. We can
only hope that it does not come too late. Be swift,
Jixitla.”
The bird peered at him for a moment longer, then
lifted off, winging onward towards the swirling silver
glow.
Vienar lay back. He reached a weak hand to the
storm saber at his side, his fingers struggling to close
around the handle. He gazed up into the nightmare
blackness of a dead sky.
I'm dying again, Christibelle. Don't leave me. I
won't forget. I won't ever forget.
The wailing calls were coming nearer.
II. Aqshy
Saria knelt on the edge of the dried riverbed, head
cocked to one side. The red earth was cracked and
scared beneath her hands, radiating heat like an
open oven. The plains of Aqshy were hot, there was
no doubting that.
Hot and dead, more the most part. Vast empty
deserts and barren black rock and sputtering lava-
flows dotted the pockmarked landscape. To the
untrained eye, there was absolutely nothing to be
seen here.
Saria had learned, however, that even the most
desolate wasteland held its secret treasures.
There was something down there in the cracked
bed. She couldn't quite make it out, but it shone an
iridescent blue, which was not the sort of color one
often saw in the wastes. It was worth checking out,
at least.
 The young girl stood up and glanced back the way
she'd come. The great towering walls of Hammerhal
stood far in the distance, mighty as any mountain
range. Great images of Sigmar adorned the lofty
towers, stern faces looking out across the bleak and
blasted world which his followers had tamed. The
ever-present shield of magic which guarded the city
shimmering in the light like a mirage of water.
No one got into the great city. Not if you weren't
welcome. Well... no army got in, anyway. Scavenger
urchins like Saria who had lived their whole lives in
the city knew all the secret tunnels and passes which
could get a single person past the walls and force
fields. For a group of armed aggressors, however,
the city was essentially impenetrable. Not that it
stopped them trying. Hoards of orruks, legions of
daemons, throngs of undead... all had been broken
on the rock which was Hammerhal Aqshy.
She scrabbled down into the gully. Had there ever
been enough water in this place to fill a riverbed such
as this? She couldn't imagine it. She'd heard tales
from those who had gone through the portal to the
other half of the twin city, Hammerhal Ghyran, of
lakes and forests and verdant greenery beyond
description.
It seemed sometimes impossible to her that the
vastness of Hammerhal in this realm was but a part
of a greater whole. The city which existed
simultaneously on two worlds... It was hard to wrap
her mind around it.
She had more important things to do than ponder
the mysteries of the city, however. She had to find
something that she could sell, or she wasn't going to
eat this week.
She crept along the riverbed, closer and closer to
the thing she'd spotted, her hopes rising with every
step. What might it be? Could this be the find that
would change her life?
It was a dead bird.
She cursed out loud, and almost kicked the damn
thing. It was just one of those stupid birds that were
always following the golden boys around. It might
be worth something stuffed or plucked, but it was
hardly treasure.
Then she paused, looked closer. The bird's
Page 2
shimmering feathers ruffled in the hot breeze. There
was a long black dark sticking out of its side.
Something had killed this bird, some hunter. It had
been shot in flight, she suspected, but winged away
before the hunter could retrieve its prey. And there
was something else...
She reached out. The bird wore a strange amulet
about its neck. She'd never seen anything like that
before. The golden boys dressed up their bird-
hounds sometimes, but never their birds. She
unwrapped the cord from about the dead creature's
neck and lifted the amulet.
It felt strangely cool in her hands. Now then, this
just might be worth something. She grinned. Maybe
her fortunes were turning around after all.
III. A Fair Bargain
The Duardin merchant Bungo Blackrock whistled
softly under his breath. He swung the odd amulet
jauntily as he walked, watching it sway in the
evening light. He couldn’t help but congratulate
himself on having made another brilliant deal. It was
practically a steal, really, that stupid urchin hadn’t
know what she’d stumbled on.
She’d thought the amulet mere jewelry, and for
jewelry he’d paid her, hemming and hawing and
agonizing over each copper as he’d counted them
out to her. This thing was magic, though, he’d known
it right away. An artifact of some not insignificant
power, if he was right. He’d find out what it was,
then he’d sell it to some pointy-ear in Ghyran for a
hundred times what he’d paid.
A fair bargain indeed.
It had been almost too easy. Hammerhal was
overrun with the desperate and the ignorant, seeking
shelter from the madness of the world outside. Just
the sort of situation he needed to turn a profit.
But first, he needed a drink. It was time to celebrate.
He strolled on down the street, completely
ignorant of the strange and watchful eyes gleaming
in the shadows of the alley behind him, watching his
every move.
 Beginning Your Campaign
It is now time to begin your campaign. You will have
to brave many dangers in order to unravel the secret
of the amulet and thwart the schemes of chaos.
Follow the instructions in the Guidebook for Setting
up your First Game, then begin your quest with The
Chase (page 5 of the Shadows Over Hammerhal
Adventure Book)
Visiting Cinderfall
After each quest, the heroes will have the chance to
pay a visit to the district of Cinderfall, where they
will be able to rest from their injuries, purchase
goods, undertake personal quests or partake in any
number of activities.
When the heroes visit Cinderfall, they will first
resolve a Cinderfall Event (see instruction on page
43). Then, each hero in the party, including those that
did not participate in the previous quest, chooses one
place to visit from the Cinderfall Activities Card.
Each hero must visit a different location, with the
exception of the Chapel, the House of Venargo, and
Page 3
the Raven’s Guild Bastille, which any number of
heroes may visit in a turn. After each hero has
chosen, they should turn to the relevant entry in the
Adventure Book. Some Cinderfall areas offer
multiple activities. When a hero visits such an area
they may only choose one activity. Carry out the
activity in full. That hero’s visit in now complete. If
they undertook a Free Action, they may go to another
location and take another action.
The players may find it helpful to mark each hero
card with a stun marker (or a wound marker if that
hero is garrisoned) to remember which heroes have
completed their action, especially if the players are
controlling multiple heroes.
Garrisoned Heroes
Some activities in Cinderfall cannot be accomplished
during a short visit, and will require more time to
complete. Activities listed as “Garrison” require
that the hero remain in Cinderfall for an extended
duration. Any hero undertaking such an activity
cannot accompany the group on their next quest. At
least one hero must remain available to undertake
the next quest, and cannot be garrisoned.
Passage:
Cinderfall Events
The heroes may take a well-earned rest after
battling the deadly horrors in the depths of
Hammerhal and twisted star-paths of the Silver
Tower, and then spend some time undertaking one
of the many activities that the bustling streets of
the Cinderfall district have to offer.
Each time the heroes are instructed to read a
random Cinderfall Passage they should roll 3 dice,
add the party’s Achievement Level to the total,
and read the corresponding entry. After resolving
an event, mark the number of that event in the
Campaign Log. If that event would occur a second
time, the event and side-quest brackets are ignored
and the next highest unresolved event is resolve
instead.
Do not roll the dice when the heroes return
from their fourth journey to the Silver Tower,
instead read passage 2. When they return from
their eighth journey, read passage 3.
1 Following your unlikely escape from the twisting
passages of the Silver Tower you and your
companions find yourselves branded and in
possession of a dangerous artifact, one which has
clearly bonded the group. You cannot let this
mystery go unsolved, at least not until you are free
of the mark. You pay a visit to the Aelven
Loremaster Alnum Starcrest. She listens careful
to your tale, then takes one look at the artifact
which you took and recoils. “An instrument of
dark power,” she says, stroking her chin, “and a
grim portent. It is clear that the forces of chaos
are moving against Hammerhal. My sages have
heard whispers of strange portals opening
beneath the lost undercity, and of foul things
emerging from them. I see now that the two must
be linked. I think that you must explore these
portals and what lies beyond them, if you wish to
solve the riddle of the amulet… and of the mark
which you now carry together.”
Visit Cinderfall, then choose one of the 6 gates
beneath Cinderfall to search for. Be warned, the
deeper you delve, the greater will be the danger.

action, they may train with the veteran and spend
up to 5 gold to gain an equal amount of renown.
6 A famed gambler has arrived in Cinderfall, ready
to take on any challengers who dare face him.

determining their opponent’s hand rank.
7 You are approached by a wandering salesman.
A hero may buy a the top card of the exotic

8 A drunken citizen mistakes you for a legendary
war hero, and the crowd takes up the cry.
A random hero gains D3 renown.
9 An old man lurches towards you and gives you

Randomly choose a hero, they may return the
sword for 1 Renown and D3 gold, instead of
taking any other activities.
10 The streets are crowded with revelers celebrating
the Carnival of Sigmar.
The heroes cannot visit the Bazaar, the Riftmarket
or the Revelrie this turn.
Passage:
11 Olrig has purchased dozens of barrels of imported
ale, and the taps are open.
Each hero can choose to take part in a drinking
contest in addition to any other activities, but must
add 1 to their roll on the Drinking Table
12 A cave in has temporarily blocked the way down
to the dungeons below Cinderfall.
The heroes may each undertake one additional
Cinderfall actions this turn (but may still only take
one garrison action). Place a D3 Danger tokens on
the Torch card. The next time the heroes fail an
Ambush roll, add these tokens to the Current
Chamber.
13 The Guild of Pickpockets lurk in the shadows,
taking what they will from the unsuspecting.
Each hero rolls a dice. If they roll an odd number
they lose a Treasure, or all their Gold if they don’t
have any Treasure.
14 A tavern brawl breaks out, spilling into the streets!
You find yourselves caught up in it.
Each hero rolls a dice. On a 1 they receive a
grievous injury, on a 6 they distinguish themselves
in the melee and gain D3 renown. On a result of
3-4 they may take take a Cinderfall Action as
normal, for any other result their trip is cut short
and they may not take an action this turn.
15 Market day in Cinderfall! Bargains abound!
You receive a discount of D3 Gold when buying
treasures at the Riftmarket or Bazaar this turn.
16 The child of a noble family has gone missing. They
plead with you to find their lost offspring.
Heroes may spend their time searching instead of
taking a normal activity. When they do, roll a dice.
On a result of 5-6 they have found the child and
are rewarded with a family heirloom local
Treasure card. Add 1 to this roll for each different
location searched this turn.
17 A mercenary guild has come to town, and the
streets are filled with fighters looking for work.

slowly healing injury.
21 An Orruk is battering at the city gates and calling
for war! You must held to fight them back!
If the City Defense Level is less than 3, each hero
suffers a grievous wound.
22 It could have been thieves, or maybe just a hole
in your pocket, but you’re completely broke.
Randomly choose a hero, that hero loses all their
Gold and may not be given any Gold during this
visit to Cinderfall.
23 Your head throbs with dull agony. Perhaps the
wound was more serious than it first appeared…
A random hero with a grievous injury receives
another grievous injury.
24 The Flayhound tribe have sent a force of reavers
to assail the city! You must held to fight them back!
If the City Defense Level is less than 5, each hero
suffers a grievous wound.
25+ The March of Chaos continues unabated. The
longer you delay the tighter its grip closes about
the great city of Sigmar.
The heroes may not take Cinderfall Actions this
turn, and each hero suffers 1 grievous wound.
There is no limit to how many times this event
may occur.
 Baugren’s Bazaar
Those searching for rare or illicit items within
Cinderfall are usually pointed towards this place. A
slightly grimy but impressively large converted
warehouse operating under the thinnest facade of
respectability, the bazaar is filled with many varied
and esoteric items and staffed by a plump, sweaty
human called Baugren.
Buy: Draw 2 exotic treasure cards. You may choose
to buy 1 of them for 6 gold pieces, or you may try to
haggle with Baugren. To haggle, first make an offer
from 1 to 5 gold, then roll a dice. If the roll is equal
to or lower than the offer, you may buy the treasure
for the offered price, otherwise you are sent packing.
Academic heroes may subtract 1 from the result of
their dice roll.
Sell: Sell an exotic treasure for D6 gold pieces. You
must agree to sell before rolling the dice. Academic
heroes may add 1 to the result of their dice roll.

fighters from this motley assortment. The more
famous the heroes are, the easier it will be to talk
them into giving you a deal.
Hire Mercenaries: Roll on the Ally table to see who
is available in the guild. After rolling, you may
choose if you wish to hire any of the available
mercenaries for the listed price, though the hero may

equal amount. They may not reduce their renown
below 0 by doing so. If the price is paid, this
companion will accompany you on your next quest
as a hired companion.
The Runemarked hero may use the following special
action as long as the mercenary is alive:

impromptu drinking contest.
Barroom Challenge: Pay 1 gold to buy a round and
challenge your opponent. Roll on the Drinking table
to determine the hardiness of your opponent. For
each round of the drinking contest, you and your
opponent will each roll 3 dice and compare each
result to your Save values. If you succeed two or
more rolls then you downed your drink in one. If you
succeed at one then you choked it down. If you roll
no successes then you’ve failed. Each time you’re
forced to choke a drink down, remove one of your
dice for the next round and roll again. The first
person to roll no successes loses. If you win, gain a

 Chapel of the Shattered Blade
This is a shabby, run-down church of worship to
Sigmar. It venerates Saint Rubeus, a legendary
Warrior-Priest who led the first consecration of the
city and fell in battle against the orruk hordes of the
Bloodscalps. The chapel is usually attended to by

 Side-Quests
Throughout the course of the campaign the heroes
will have the opportunity to undertake additional
quests not directly related to their battle with the lords
of the Silver Tower, but which may reward the party
with excellent pay or even a chance to find rare
artifacts. If they fail to completed these quests when
they are offered, however, there may be a price.
When resolving the Cinderfall Event, you may see a
bracket around the event number. This icon indicates
that a side-quest is available to the heroes.
X
Side-Quest Bracket
Page10
Page #
There are a number side-quests available for each
Achievement level. When the heroes choose a side
quest they may choose any of the quest for that
Achievement level which they have no previously
chosen. Once the quest is chosen, the heroes may
may accept the quest or refuse it. Write the name of
the quest on the next open line of the Side-Quest
section of the campaign log.
Quest Time-Limit
If the heroes accept the quest, roll a D3, and mark
the result in the campaign log. This is the amount of
time which the heroes have to undertake the chosen
side quest. Each time the heroes return to Cinderfall,
reduce the number by 1.
Failing a Side-Quest
If the heroes attempt the side-quest and are defeated,
the time remaining reaches 0, or if the heroes refuse
to take the quest when it is offered, it is considered
to have been failed. Mark it failed on the Campaign
Log and resolve the Defeat instructions of the
corresponding quest guide
The City Watch
If the City Defense Level is greater than the level of
the side-quest, the heroes may turn the quest over to
the city watch and let them resolve the issue. Mark
the Success space in the Campaign Log, but do not
gain any other reward.
Embarking on a Side-Quest
The heroes may complete the side-quest by using the
Embark On Side-Quest Cinderfall action in the
Raven Bridge Bastille. Play the quest using all
heroes who take that action during their Cinderfall
visit.
This is considered to take place concurrently with
the next step of the main quest, so heroes that have
embarked on a side-quest will not be available to
participate in the next stage of the main quest, as
with any other garrison Cinderfall action.

I The Verminlair
The air is dank and reeks of unnamable foulness. As
you descend into the dark, vermin scurry away at the
sound of your footsteps. Over their terrified squeaks,
you can hear the clicking of claws on stone, though
there are no enemies in sight.
Infested Hall
You enter a gloomy room, and dozens of rodents
squeak and chitter as they scatter before the light of
your torches. But there’s something else here,
something bigger, you can feel it stirring…
Special Rules: Each time a hero makes a Search
action, the creatures stir and strike. If your search roll
is lower than your Save value, suffer 1 Poison wound.
Search: A passage opens with a rasping of stone,
and the striking creatures slither away.
Guardroom
A pack of rat-men are lounging about the guardroom,
eating pilfered cheese from off the tips of their rusty
daggers. They leap up as the door opens and snarl.
Adversaries (Alert): 4 Skaven Soldiers (Exit)
Search: You find a cache of torches. Add D3 Torch
dice.
Throne of Filth
A hulking Skaven sits enthroned atop a mound of
stolen treasures, reveling in his loot. He gives a
startled squeak and growls for aid as he rushes
towards you, claws out and weapon drawn.
Adversaries: 1 Clawlord or Skaven Commander (C)
Special Rules: If the Guardroom or the Eerie Pit
have not yet been explored, place them now and
make a surprise roll for the adversaries inside as if
they had just been placed by an ambush.
Search: A Treasure sits upon the throne. You take
it for yourself.
Eerie Pit
Huge rats fill the room, pouring in an endless stream
from a gaping hole in the floor.
Adversaries: D6 Skaven Minions (Center)
Special Rules: If there are no heroes in this chamber
after it has been explored, and less than 6 Minions
Page 12
on the board, add 1 Skaven Minion in this chamber
at the start of the adversary phase.
Search: You heave a boulder over the gaping hole.
Ignore this room’s special rules.
Warpstone Hoard
Emerald light flashes and crackles like lightning,
emanating from a hunk of green stone set atop a dais
in the center of the room. A robed rat sorcerer stand
before the stone, caressing it with his paws.
Adversaries: 1 Grey Seer or Skaven Commander (S)
Special Rules: The Commander is suffused with the
energy of the insidious warp. He has 5 additional
Vigour, and cannot be stunned.
Search: The warpstones pulse and glow, and you
feel a surge of energy bursting through you. Each
hero in this chamber immediately gains 1 Attribute
Upgrade, if possible.
Victory
When both Skaven Commanders have both been
slain, the heroes are victorious.
The rats scuttle off into the darkness, fleeing in
terror. Perhaps now they’ll think twice before
troubling the granaries of Hammerhal.
Each hero on the quest gains 3 gold. You may not
attempt this quest again.
Defeat
You stagger, falling to your knees. The furry bodies
of your tormentors stream over in an endless wave,
their little claws and teeth nipping fiercely. You let
out a desperate scream, and a horrid fat rat leaps
into your open mouth.
You have failed to purge the Verminlair, and may
not attempt this quest again. Next time you would
roll for a Cinderfall event, do not roll. The following
event takes place instead:
Swarms of rats flood the streets, their beady red eyes
glowing with enraged hunger!
Each hero must make a Save roll and a Combat
Weapon action of their choice. If they fail either roll,
they are bitten by Warp-crazed vermin and suffer a
grievous wound.
 The Dank Pit I

“Things have been going missing from the district for a good while now. The jewel of Amathustra vanished
from the altar of the Church of Sigmar in Thorn Gate, and a cache of gold was pilfered from a tradesman
in the Ashfall pass just the other day. I’m sure these aren’t just ordinary thieves, it’s goblins! The pests are
everywhere, scuttling around in the shadows. Track them to their cave and recover our lost goods!”
-Chaplain Drov Milton

Set aside all Treasures and Gold pieces you find during this quest. For each treasure and every 3 Gold
pieces you find, place a Glory marker on the Achievement card.

Page 13
 I The Dank Pit
You walk cautiously into the mouth of a strange
tunnel which has been carved out off a sewer
passage. There are pungent mushroom growing all
along the inside of the damp cavern walls.
Dank Hole
The narrow tunnel opens into a wide cave, though
it’s so low in places that you have you crouch to keep
from scraping your head on the ceiling. Just up
ahead you can hear the pattering of little feet on the
stone.
Adversaries (Alert): 6 Grot Minions (Center)
Search (Timed 2): You locate a narrow passage,
moments from crumbling, and manage to brace the
exit enough to pass through.
Slidey Passage
You step through the doorway and almost fall right
over. The roughly-hewn tunnel slopes sharply
downward, the stone floor slick and slippery. Ahead
through the darkness you can just make out a pair of
little eyes and a massive mouthful of razor sharp
teeth. Some sort of monstrous squig-like creature has
taken up a semi-permanent residence here. You
suspect that the sharply tilted sloop is used as a
feeding shoot for the hidious creature.
Special Rules: It takes 2 movement points to move
from south to north in this chamber. Each time a hero
or ally ends an action while located in this chamber
they must roll a D3, and move that many spaces
directly towards the south end of the chamber. If
there is another figure in the way, that figure is
pushed as well, if possible. If there is a figure behind
that one, they keep their footing and none of the
figures move. Any figure that ends an action adjacent
to the obstruction in this room – the great Squiggy-
mouth – immediately suffers 1 wound.
Search: You manage to keep your footing long
enough to locate a narrow side passage leading east
from the sharply tilted corridor.
Mushroom Farm
The enormous mushrooms here exhale great puffs of
noxious vapor. It doesn’t seem to bother the goblins,
however.
Page 14
Adversaries (Alert): 3 Grot Scuttlings.
Special Rules: Each time a hero is wounded in this
chamber they must change all their normal wounds
to Poison wounds, then increase the Poison level of
all their wounds by 1.
Search: 3 Gold pieces.
Crumble-hole
The floor here is broken and crumbling. There are
dozens of little hidey-holes and nooks where the
Grots may have stashed their ill-gotten gains.
Special Rules: After taking a Search action, place a
wound marker on your current space. You may not
take a Search action while standing in a space with
a wound marker.
Search (Epic): You locate 2 Treasures.
The Dankest Hole
A veritable swarm of goblins crowd in this room,
perched atop a great mound of pilfered purses and
money-pouches. Gold glints in their green fingers,
and they hiss angrily at the sight of you.
Adversaries: 8 Grot Scuttlings (Center) and D6
Grot Minions (Exit)
Special Rules: Each time you slay an adversary in
this chamber, take 1 Gold piece.
Search: D6 Gold pieces.
Victory
At the end of the round after placing a third marker
on the Achievement card, the heroes are victorious.
The grots shriek and gnash their teeth in a fury, but
their will to fight is broken. Snatching up whatever
remnant of their ill-gotten goods they can, they
scurry off into the darkness.
Each hero may choose to take 3 gold or 1 treasure
from the recovered loot.
Defeat
Grot thieves pilfer your party, and the city alike!
Each hero loses all gold and treasures. The heroes
may not purchase any items during their next visit
to Cinderfall.
 The Beast’s Lair I

“They might stand up on two feet and walk like a man, but these monsters are pure animal. Senseless savage
brute that’d gut ya soon as look at ya. There’s packs of ‘em what rove the outskirts of the city, skulking in
their dens and what have you. What I need is somebody can go along with the caravan and keep those beasts
off our backs. If ya can figure where they’re holing up and flush ‘em out all the better.”
-Captain Gran Olaf

If there is a Freeguild ally within range, adversaries will target them instead of a hero.

The Caravan stands ready to depart. Men reach
nervously for their weapons, eyeing one another and
whispering anxiously amongst themselves of previous
caravans which were waylaid and lost.
Place 6 Freeguild allies beside the board. In the hero
phase, the heroes may place any number of them in
open spaces on the Entrance tile. When an ally moves
into the space marked X on the Flamescar Roadway,
that ally is removed from the board.
Flamescar Roadway
The Flamescar roadway lays before you. This long
path leads through the charred and desiccated
canyon pass, with numerous opportunities for
ambushes along the way. You’ll need to be on your
guard if you are to shepherd the caravan through
safely.
Special Rules: Place 2 Danger tokens in this
chamber when it is explored. Place 1 Danger token
in this chamber each turn before making the ambush
roll, even if there are not currently any heroes present
in the chamber. When an ambush occurs on the
Flamescar Roadway, roll a dice and place the
indicated adversaries as close as possible to the
hidden door which corresponds to the result of the
dice roll.
Search (Epic): Roll a dice. Set up the Hidden Cave
adjacent to the hidden doorway which corresponds
to the result of the dice roll. If you get this result
when rolling after an ambush occurs on the roadway,
roll again until you get a different result.
Hidden Cave
You advance cautiously through a curtain of tangled
vines, twisted and brown and dead, woven into a sort
of curtain which shielded the narrow entrance from
outside view. It stinks inside of beasts.
Adversaries: D3 Beastman minions (Center)
Search: You locate an inventory of the Beastmen’s
loot. Place up to 3 dice on the Map card.
Loot Hold
Sacks of grain and chests of treasure lie piles
haphazardly about in this room. You can see the seals
of the city of Hammerhal prominently displayed on

of terrible power and vicious hatred stands before
you, his most powerful soldiers arrayed about him.
Adversaries (Alert): 1 Great Bray Shaman (S), D3
Beastman Soldiers (Center)
Search: 1 Exotic Treasure.
Victory
When the last Freeguild ally moves off the board,
the heroes are victorious.
Despite the harrying of the Beastmen, you’ve
managed to shepherd the caravan safely along the
Flamescar Roadway
Each hero on the quest gains 1 Renown for every 2
Freeguild allies that moved safely off the board.
Defeat
The caravan has been scattered, overturned carts
and slain guardsmen littering the roadway behind
you. Despite your efforts, you’ve been unable to hold
back the rampaging Beastman raiders.
You have failed to protect the caravan, and may not
attempt this quest again. Each hero places D3 Danger
tokens on their hero card. While any number of
tokens are there there, that heroes is disgraced. The
next time that hero would gain any amount of
Renown, discard a Danger token instead.
 Temple of Slaughter II

“The Flayhound tribe of reavers have established a dark temple beneath the city. People have begun to
disappear from the streets. The Flayhounds are planning something grim, a sacrifice to draw the eye of their
dark god. Find their temple, and destroy it before it’s too late to stop them.”
-General Nathan A’ilatha, Hammerhal Army

Place the Blood Marker in the starting space on the Fate board, each time an adversary is slain or a

Blooding Room
You see before you an armored warrior, standing
with arm raised and blood streaming down the blade
of an ornate dagger clutched in his grip. Just for a
moment the air seems to ripple, and you think you
catch a glimpse of an endless scorched landscape,
the ground soaked with blood.
Adversaries: 1 Blood Warrior (W)
Search: You pick up the strange blade. It appears
almost to be alive; the craved mouth drinking the
blood running down the blade. You may choose to
keep the dagger or destroy it. If you keep the dagger,
place a Danger token on your hero card. Advance the
Blood Marker 1 additional space each time you slay
an adversary.
Flaying Pit
A grisly sight is before you - bulky warriors crouched
over severed heads performing some foul ritual.
When they see you they drop their bloody work and
bellow war cries.
Adversaries (Alert): 3 Bloodreavers (Center)
Special Rules: While there are adversaries in this

to or lower than the party’s Achievement Level,
reveal Stairway A and place D3 Bloodreavers in that
chamber.
Search: You find 1 Gold piece.
Discarded Bones
You find a room in which the Khornites have
discarded the bodies of their victims. A huge and
hellish hound gnaws furiously at an enormous bone.
It raises its head and snarls in your direction.
Adversaries: 1 Bloodreaver (B), 1 Flesh Hound (F)
Search: You find flayed skin, upon which are
inscribed strange runes. Add a destiny dice to the fate
board showing a result of your choice.

and are uncomfortably hot to the touch.
Adversaries (Alert): 1 Khorne Commander (S)
Special Rules: If a hero moves more than 2 spaces

in this chamber in a single move action they must
test their agility or suffer D3 wounds.
Search: The room seems eerily quiet. Reduce the
Blood Marker by D3 spaces.
The Offertory
A grate in the floor allows movement across this
unhallowed chamber, and the magma running
underneath casts fiendish shadows on the leering
faces of the cultists that rush to slaughter you.
Adversaries: 3 Khorne Elite (Center)
Special Rules: When an adversary is slain or a hero
grievously wounded in this chamber advance the
Blood Marker D3 spaces instead of 1.
Search: Roll a dice. You may suffer any number of
wounds to add an equal number to the result (or twice
as many if you kept the sacrificial dagger found in
the Blooding Room.) If the final result is 6 or higher
than you have located a hollow in the wall. Upon
inspecting it you locate a lost Artefact. Take the Last
Gift of Saint Rubeus.
Victory
When the Exalted Deathbringer has been slain the
heroes are victorious.
The hideous deamon slumps to the ground, the
burning light fading from its hate-filled eyes.
Each hero on the quest gains 2 gold. You may not
attempt this quest again.
Defeat
The Khornite blades flash again and again as they
tear into you, and the last thing you feel as you slip
into merciful oblivion is the edge of a knife sawing
at your throat.
You may not attempt this quest again. Choose a
random hero and place the Blood Marker on their
hero card. They have been marked for sacrifice, and
suffer 1 additional wound each time they are
wounded by a Khorne adversary. The hero may
remove the mark by spending 5 gold in the Chapel
of the Shattered Blade and remaining garrisoned
there for a turn.
 Darkhold Garrison II

“They came out of nowhere! A whole gang of them, men in black armor with dark expressions, I never
seen such fearsome folk. I tell ya, they seemed hardly human. Evil they were, evil to the bone. And their
leader… he was something else. Something like I never seen before. They killed everyone, everyone but my
husband. He’s the proctor of the second district. They took him back to where ever they come from.
Sigmar knows what they’ll do to him. Please, please! You have to rescue him.”

Pillared Hall
The heavy door swings open to reveal a well-lit room.
The stonework is of a high standard, in a stark

loaded weapon racks. The doors leading onward are
sturdy and broad, reinforced with iron bands.
Search: You’re able to locate D3 Gold pieces
scattered throughout the hall.
Pitfall
The floor here is riddled the pitfalls and crumbling
masonry. It’s unsteady and unsafe. There are places
where the floor has fallen so fully into disrepair that
you can see through to the floor below.
Special Rules: Each time a hero ends their
movement in this chamber, roll a dice. If you roll
below your Agility value you lose your footing and
tumble down. You suffer D3 wounds, then place your
hero in any space in the Jailer’s Room. If that
chamber has not been explored yet, reveal it now.

Mess Hall
Dirty crockery and spoiled food lay about in a filthy
disarray. Upon the high table, however, there sits the
remnants of a more recent feast, much of it looking
highly appetizing. It seems that the spoils of victory

choice vittles, at the least.

hang on the walls, crusted with blood.
Adversaries: 1 Chaos Sorcerer Lord (L)
Search: You find a Local Treasure among the Jailor's
possessions.
Squalid Cell
Taveron Quilian is huddled in the corner of the room,
shivering and holding himself. He flinches away from
the light, whimpering in anticipation of his torturer’s
return. When he see who stands in the door, however,
he rises slowly to his feet with a look of disbelief.
Search: Gain Companion of your choice. Advance

The Proctor staggers out into the light, sobbing with
relief as he tastes freedom.
Each hero on the quest gains D3 gold. You may not
attempt this quest again.
Defeat
You retreat to the city in shame, the thought of having
to face the newly widowed Madam Quilian weighting
heavily upon your party.
You may not attempt this quest again. You lose favor
in Cinderfall. Heroes may not take Garrison actions
in Cinderfall during their next visit. Note this in the
Campaign Log.

banished souls of the slain begin to return. At the
beginning of each turn, the Runemarked player rolls
a dice. If they roll a 1-3 they may choose a hero or
ally and return them to the board in an empty space
adjacent to the blue portal, as if returning after a
respite. If they roll a 4-6 they must choose an
adversary, if possible, and return them to the board
in the same manner.
Search (Epic): Choose an adversary placed beside
the board and remove them from play.
Victory
You fling yourselves into the portal, and the city of

Defeat
Shards of enchanted glass slice into your skin as you

defeated the hero who slew him flips the Search
token in this chamber and resolves it as if having
made a successful search.
Search: You pry a glowing object from the hands of
the dead Troggoth. Take the Seeds of the Everroot
Artefact card. Reduce the Blight marker by up to 3
spaces on the Fate track.
Victory
When the Blight marker has been returned to the
starting space the heroes are Victorious.
You have broken the spell of corruption.
Each hero on the quest gains 3 gold. You may not
attempt this quest again.
Defeat
The plague is unleashed upon the city, spreading
through the realmgate to infect Cinderfall.
You may not attempt this quest again. The plague is
unleashed, for the next D3 visits to Cinderfall. The
Chapel is overrun treating infected victims. When
taking the Holy Healing action the heroes must pay
6 gold, rather than 3, and when taking the Rest and
Meditation action, the heroes must subtract 3 from
their rolls.
 The Court of Blood III

“They’re all mad, I tell you, stark raving mad! They’ve killed everybody, and worse than that! Cannibals,
they are, ate every last one of the noble family. By Sigmar, I never seen anything like it. Please, please you
must slay the beasts. They’ve set themselves up in the castle as if they was lords and ladies, but it’s a feast
of slaughter they’re presiding over!”

 III
Entrance
Far out upon the wastes of the Flamescar Reach lies
the court of the Sun King - a title long held by the
noble family of Belfiant, rulers of a small fief outside
the walls of Hammerhal. The great castle is a grim
and frightful now, the halls slick with gore and the
banners tattered and ripped. Not a living thing greats
your approach, but you can hear the scratch of long
nails on the old stone.
Hall of Tapestries
The tattered remnants of once-resplendent wall
hangings decorate the walls here. They seem to have
been clawed and ripped in a blind fury.
Search: You find D3 Gold tucked in a secret
compartment behind a tapestry.
The Great Hearth
A hulking Ghoul screams in wordless rage as you
enter, summoning forth his scuttling minions.
Adversaries (Alert): 1 Ghoul King (K), D3 Mordant
Soldiers (Center)
Search: You find 2 Gold.
Special Rules: When the Ghoul King would be slain,
instead remove him from the board and set him aside
and read the following:
The mad lord of the cannibals, blood dripping from
a half-dozen wounds, rushes out of the chamber and
vanishes into shadow before you can finish him.
Royal Courtyard
A hulking monstrosity charges towards you,
shrieking as it crosses the gory courtyard, once a
place of resplendence and beauty, now a grim
abattoir of the doomed.
Adversaries: 1 Mordant Champion (C)
Search: Roll a dice. If you roll a 1, suffer D3 Stun.
If you roll a 2-5, you find D3 Gold. If you roll a 6,
you find a Local Treasure.
Special Rules: When the heroes explore this
chamber the active hero’s turn immediately ends and
the Champion is activated. It will activate again at
the normal time. While the Champion is on the board,
add 1 Mordent Soldier to each unexplored exit in this
chamber at the beginning of each Hero Phase.
Page 26
The Court of Blood
Wine Cellar
The casks have been smashed open, and the red
liquid dripping from the broken barrels and lies
sticky upon the floor.
Search: You find an Exotic Treasure hidden in an
empty wine cask.
Throne of the Sun King
The leader of the pack sits here enthroned, licking
his wounds, surrounded by the slavering masses of
his gruesome court. The ghouls are a grisly parody
of chivalry, clawing and mangling one another in
the press as they attempt to swipe at you.
Adversaries: 1 Ghoul King (K), 1 Fell Bat Swarm
(F)
Special Rules: Figures may enter the red-bordered
spaces in this chamber. If a hero ends an action in or
adjacent to such a space, however, then they will be
attacked at the end of the adversary phase by a Crypt
Ghoul. Each red space counts as a Crypt Ghoul.
Victory
The Riches of the court are yours. You need only to
wash the blood from the coins strewn about and
among the dead. A hideous payment for your service,
but a potentially lucrative one.
The party receives 2D6 Gold. You may not attempt
this quest again.
Defeat
The court of madness now holds sway upon the
Flamescar Reach. Portion-making supplies will be
a good deal more difficult to obtain.
The heroes may not purchase potions from the Guild
of Thaumaturgists for the next D3 visits to
Cinderfall. Not this in the Campaign Log. You may
not attempt this quest again.

The Silver Gates
“The sages of the Temple of Silver Mirrors gaze ever into the murky reflections of fate. Never before,
however, have those mirrors gazed back. Not until today. A strange band of pilgrims in dark cloaks came
into the temple, and began to perform a ritual of some sort… I fear it part of a dark plot, and one with
potentially grave consequences…”
-First Sage Aundwin Trilheart

The blue “eye” marker is used during this quest. It is referred to as the Mirror Marker. Place it on
the starting space of the Fate board.

Page 27
III
Entrance
The silence of the temple lays beyond a great
doorway wrought with beautiful and terrible
inscriptions, the carvings made by sages who have
gazed into the uncertain future.
Special Rules: At the beginning of each turn advance
the blue eye (Mirror Marker) one space for each set
aside mirror portal. When it makes a complete circuit
add D3 Danger tokens to the Temple. If an ambush
happens here, place the enemies as close as possible
to any portals, rather than in an empty chamber.
The Temple of Silver Mirrors
A large group of figures in dark robes stands
throughout the temple, their voices raised in a low
dirge, a grim chant which sends a shiver down your
spine. As you look, the foremost of the figures throws
back their hood, revealing the Chaplain of the Order
of the Silver Blood himself. The Daemon mage smiles
coldly and draws an image in the air before himself.
As you watch, the great mirrors about the room begin
to swirl and twist.
Adversaries: 9 Kairic Acolytes (K), 1 Tzeentch
Magistair (T)
Special Rules: First, make an exploration deck by
shuffling together the following exploration cards:
Shifting Plates
The Warrior’s Gaze
Beyond the Glass
Whirligig Passage
A Living Path
A Sickening Turn
Sodden Chamber
Shuffle these cards and deal one face down by each
portal, then set aside the remaining cards without
looking at them.
Heroes may make an exploration action at a portal
to flip over the exploration card and set up the Silver
Tower room so that one entrance connects to the
portal. The portal functions like a doorway.
Through the Portals
Special Rules: The Silver Tower chambers may
not be searched normally. Instead, the heroes must
Page 28
The Silver Gates
make a search action to close the portal. When they
have searched, flip the marker as usual. At the end
of the round, remove the chamber and remove the
portal connected to it and set aside the portal by the
Fate board. Any figures in this chamber are removed
according to the rules for Vanishing Chambers.
The hero who searches the fifth and final chamber
finds the Heart of Ice Artefact card standing upon a
twisted pedestal. If they choose to take it they suffer
D3 grievous wounds as sinuous frosty tendrils of
magic wrap themselves around their heart.
Victory
When the final portal has been closed the heroes are
victorious.
The plotters of the Order lay slain before you, and
shards of broken mirror glass lay strew across the
floor like a field of glittering stars. The sages offer
you a sorry payment, but they have little to give, and
their temple is in ruins about them.
Each hero on the quest gains 3 gold. You may not
attempt this quest again.
Defeat
The last thing you see before darkness closes in
around you is the silvery swirling of a strange
reflection. It feels as though a shard of mirror has
been lodged in your eye.
You may not attempt this quest again. Choose a
random hero and place the Mirror Marker on their
hero card. Each time there is an successful ambush,
place D3 Kairic Acolytes as close as possible to this
hero, in addition to any other adversaries added. The
hero may remove the shard by spending 10 gold in
the Chapel of the Shattered Blade and remaining
garrisoned there for a turn.
 Repel the Hoard IV

“Workers digging an aqueduct tunnel under the city seem to have uncovered a lost Shrine to the great
god-king Sigmar. Word of the discovery has been spreading like wildfire, all the way to the tribes of Orruks
and Ogors and Grots that populate the wastes beyond the city. Seems they’ve found a way into the sewage
tunnels beneath the city. It appears they intend to destroy the Shrine and erect their own abominable edifice
in its place. Please, you must protect it at all costs.”

listed adversaries for each of the three tunnels.
During the Destiny phase, do not roll the Ambush
dice until after rolling and resolving the fate dice.
The heroes may not use Torch dice during the
Destiny phase.
Instead of adding Danger tokens as usual, instead
remove a Danger token from the corresponding
space, or an adjacent space, then add adversaries to
the board using the corresponding entry on the
Ambush Table.
After the last Danger token is removed from the
board, do not roll the Ambush dice during the
Destiny phase.
The Shrine of Sigmar
Special Rules: Place a marker in the center space
marked S. Enemies treat the Shrine as if it were the
Runemarked hero, and treat the Runemarked hero as
if they were next in line to receive the rune. If the
Shrine suffers 10 damage, the heroes are defeated.
Repel the Hoard
Victory
When there are no Danger tokens or adversaries on
the board, the heroes are victorious.
The last of the Orruks flees back down the tunnel,
while the shrine stands resplendent in the darkness.
As you look, it begins slowly to glow, until the enter
chamber is filled with a glowing golden light.
Remove all grievous wounds from each hero in the
party. You may not attempt this quest again.
Defeat
Your party flees back up the stairs, running pell-mell
through the twisted tunnels while the victorious
sounds of roaring and cackling follow you as the
greenskins tear the shrine apart behind you.
You may not attempt this quest again. Heroes using
the Rest and Meditation action in the Chapel of the
Shattered Blade next turn must subtract 2 from their
rolls. Note this in the quest log.

East Tunnel
The of chattering of a hundred cackling grots echoes

The clatter of iron-shod boots resound in the narrow
hall as an elite squad of bloodthirsty Ironjaws
advance upon the shrine.

“Been dark words from the All-Points… sorry. They don’t call it that anymore, do they. The Eightpoints, it
is now. The stronghold of chaos… But you know that already. Anyway, word is that there’s some gang of
greenskins that found themselves something special out there in the wasteland. An artifact of terrible power.
Thing is, it’s in pieces, and none of the orruks can agree on who should have the whole thing. It’s only a
matter of time before them come to an agreement… or one group kills the others and takes it for themselves.
We need someone to go through the portal and get it first.”

orruks will be able to get up to now.
Remove all three Artefacts of Hezerek treasures
from the game.
