 INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Mist Castle!
This book is a collection of large-scale scenarios
(campaign) to make playing Sword World 2.0 (hereafter
SW2.0) more enjoyable.
The northern continent of Razeldawn is ruled by
vicious barbarous. The City Of Mist there is the starting
point for a new adventure for the players.
The City Of Mist is a city of dangers and threats, where
up to 10,000 humanoids are ruled by the barbarous. The
players must become adventurers and take on the threats
of the City Of Mist in order to discover the city's secrets or
regain their freedom. This adventure is tougher than ever!
But at the same time, their adventures in this city will be
very exciting and filled with a great sense of adventure.
Players will survive many battles against powerful enemies,
pass through many dangers, and can return home alive!
This book is packed with an amazing amount of
adventures. So much so that it is impossible to get the full
picture in just one or two sessions.
Try repeatedly to unlock City Of Mist's secrets one by
one. You will discover new discoveries, surprises, thrills,
and excitement each time you play.
Let us briefly introduce the features of this book.
Feature 1: You can play by yourself or with others!
This book can be played with multiple players with a
game master (from now on referred to as “GM”) as in the
past, or it can be played alone without a GM. Of course,
you can also play with multiple players without a GM.
If you are a full-fledged GM, please read through this
book and invite player characters (hereafter referred to as
“PCs”) to join the City Of Mist.
Whether you are just starting out in hard-hearted GM
or are just getting started, this is a great way to start a new
campaign.
If you don't have a GM around or can't hold off on
TRPGs until the next gaming session! This is also a great
option for those who can't wait until the next TRPG
session. Adventuring on your own can be quite demanding,
but you'll experience a new thrill!
Feature 2: Random Scenario Development
City Of Mist's adventures do not follow a set storyline;
there are as many stories as there are players, spread out
over three different introductions.
No one knows the entire city structure, which is
shrouded in fog. Each time the game is played, the city will
be randomly configured, and the story that emerges will
depend on the player's actions.
Every time you play, a new story is born - this is one of
the main attractions of the “Mist Castle.”
Feature 3. Attractive Figures
The City Of Mist is a city of violence and chaos ruled
by the barbarous.
Naturally, there are numerous strong barbarous in the
city.
The “Green General” Yahakkazesh, who rules the city,
and a number of other powerful barbarous characters
(NPCs) such as Ogres, Trolls, Scyllas, and
Androscorpions.
They will be involved in players’ adventures as enemies,
sometimes as allies, and sometimes as collaborators. Their
presence will enhance adventures and deepen the world.
Of course, there are many other NPCs besides
barbarous. The total number of NPCs is over 50!
Depending on players' actions, various dramas and stories
will be created with them.
Adventures in the City Of Mist are always accompanied
by death.
The slightest carelessness can quickly bring players to
the brink of death. They must be prepared to take on this
city!
However, if you trust in your own wisdom and the
strength of your friends, a path will surely open up for you.
The excitement and thrill of passing through the toughest
adventure will satisfy you like nothing else.
Now, it's time for a new adventure.
May the blessing of the swords be upon you.

 CITY OF MIST
OVERVIEW
The City Of Mist is a city ruled by barbarous.
The city was built in the southern part of the Razeldawn
Continent, in the Agia region, on the shores of Lake Chess,
during the Magitech Civilization period. Principality of
Durlesburg and Lukythra Empire has launched numerous
military campaigns to retake the city, and either fierce
battles have been waged or ended in failure.
Currently, the City Of Mist is ruled by “Green General”
Yahakkazesh, Jade Basilisk, and is said to have thousands
of barbarous troops stationed there. In addition, more than
10,000 humanoids live in the city as the lowest class, slaves,
and vagabonds.
The shores of Lake Chess are constantly shrouded in
mist as if to repel invaders, obscuring the entire city.
However, paintings and other images from the Magitech
Civilization period depict a beautiful city standing by the
lake, which tells scholars that the fog used to cover the city.
However, it is not known what the cause of the current fog
is or whether it is the work of a barbarous.
HIERARCHY IN THE CITY OF MIST
In the City Of Mist, standing at the top of all barbarous
is Yahakkazesh, the “Green General.” The following are:
• “Stagnant Poison” Ivan Aivan, bishop of the temple of
Bragzabas, the Goddess of Decay.
• “Great General” Putut, bishop of the temple of Dalkhrem,
God of War.
• “Queen of Sewage,” Ondine roams the basement of the
Jade Tower.
• “Death Weaver” Paunella, tactician.
Below these barbarous of the highest ranks are the
upper barbarous. The upper barbarous is the backbone of
the barbarous with a monster level of 6 or higher.
In addition, there is a strict class society followed by
honorary barbarous, barbarous, slaves, and vagabonds.
SLAVES AND VAGABONDS
A slave is a humanoid who has a barbarous master.
Slaves wear a “slave's collar” to indicate their position. This
collar is engraved with a different pattern for each master,
and the slave's owner can be identified by checking the
pattern. The collar is also covered with magic and cannot
be removed without the use of a magical key owned by the
slave's master. The collar can also be made smaller by
chanting the password to the key. Thus, the master can kill
their slave whenever they like. The magic power to reduce
the size of the collar also works when the collar leaves the
city, so the slave's escape from the city means death.
Thus, the slave's right to live and kill is completely in
the hands of the master barbarous. However, as a rule,
other barbarous cannot kill the slave because the slave is
the property of another barbarous.
A vagabond is any humanoid that is not a slave.
Barbarous feeds on humanoids. This city is a huge ranch,
4
so to speak, and humanoids are livestock. However, just as
people do not unnecessarily kill livestock, barbarous
people do not unnecessarily kill humanoids. They hunt
and eat humanoids when necessary. In other words, when
hunting people, vagabonds are hunted first. However, even
slaves will be hunted mercilessly even if they are confronted
with a blade. Also, an upper barbarous slave may kill a
lower barbarous slave.
Most of the vagabonds and slaves in the city are
descendants of those who originally lived in the city. The
barbarous regularly hunt humanoids outside the city in
order to replenish the population of vagabonds and slaves.
HONORARY BARBAROUS
In the city, there are humanoids called honorary
barbarous, who have been given rights almost equal to
those of the barbarous above them. They have sworn to
side with the barbarous in the event of an invasion by the
Principality of Durlesburg or other humanoid armies, and
they wear the “Honorary Bracelet” as proof of this. If they
betray, the magic of this bracelet is said to be able to kill
them, and its magic power is said to work even when they
are far away from the city, just like the “slave's collar”. In a
sense, the bracelet is a restraint to show loyalty to the
barbarous. Only “Green General” Yahakkazesh can
remove this bracelet.
BARBAROUS AND SLAVE LIFE
Most barbarous have darkvision and are active day and
night. Therefore, it is pointless to infiltrate the city by hiding
in the shadows at night. Also, going out at night in the city
increases the risk of encountering a manhunt. This is not
because barbarous frequently hunt at night, but because
their prey, humanoids, do not roam the street at night.
Some of the upper barbarous live in mansions or
specific residences. Many of these upper barbarous have a
lifestyle similar to that of humanoids, and they treat their
slaves appropriately.
However, the number of such humanoid-like
barbarous is extremely small, and the majority are
barbarous whose slaves are not even sure where they sleep.
Such barbarous slaves, who are far from being humanoids,
have no choice but to find suitable shelter and sleep under
the shelter of abandoned houses or back alleys, where their
personal safety is not guaranteed. For this reason, there are
inns in the city for slaves and vagabonds.
SCATTERED RUINS
There are a number of Magitech Civilization period
ruins in the city, many of which are untouched, as few
barbarous are interested in such ruins. Therefore, it is
possible to find valuable magitech and magical devices in
ruins. However, be careful as the security constructs and
traps remain intact.
 GLOSSARY
CIVILIAN
This is a generic term for humanoid NPCs that do not
have a class in the City Of Mist. They have an ability score of
12 for all of them and are treated as having no class at all.
E VENT
An event occurs when the user moves to a section. There
are two types of events: fixed events and random events.
K EEPER
In the City Of Mist, some of the most important people
will cooperate with the PC. Most of them will guarantee the
PCs a certain amount of custody by making them slaves.
Keepers give the PCs missions and buy them loot earned in
battle.
PCS
Indicates all player characters playing the City Of Mist.
CAMPAIGN
In this book, one campaign is treated as “from the
introduction to escaping the City Of Mist.”
B ASE
It is the base of the PCs' adventures in the City Of Mist.
PCs can buy and sell goods, rest, and leave their belongings at
the base. They can also store their belongings. The number
of “Bases” may increase depending on the nature of the
adventure.
QUEST
These are requests received from keepers or trusted NPCs
for an indefinite period. Unlike missions, PCs do not have to
solve them, but if they do, they will be rewarded in various
ways.
SECRET SECTION
This is a summary text of City Of Mist secrets, important
information, etc. It should be treated as unknown unless
important information is obtained as a result of an event or as
a reward for a mission.
U PPER B ARBAROUS
The barbarous of level 6 or higher living in the City Of
Mist are the upper barbarous. The upper barbarous are very
influential in the City Of Mist and have a large number of
slaves.
SLAVE
This is a humanoid that is the property of an upper or
honorary barbarous. As their property, they have a certain
degree of security (they cannot be kidnapped or murdered
without cause).
P ARTY
The term is used to describe multiple PCs that are working
together.
SECTION
A section is a generic term for the various facilities in the
City Of Mist. The section is always placed on a blank block

for a location.
B ARBAROUS
Monsters classified as barbarous, such as Kobolds and
Goblins, are treated as citizens in the City Of Mist.
VAGABOND
The lowest level of status in the City Of Mist. A humanoid
who is no one's slave is treated as a vagabond, and since
vagabonds have no status at all, they are hunted as food for
the barbarous or killed on a whim.
B LOCK
It is a unit that represents a section in the City Of Mist. It
is marked on the “Mist Castle Block MAP” as “A-1,” “B-4,”
and so on. A single section can be placed on one block.
B OSS
When fighting, such an enemy is reinforced with sword
shards. If it says “boss” in the monster's description, one of
the highest-level monster characters will be reinforced with
sword shards.
M ISSION
PCs receive these requests and orders at the City Of Mist.
Missions can be fixed or random and are usually received
from keepers.
In this book, PCs can increase their ability score and grow
their classes by spending experience points by completing a
mission.
H ONORARY BARBAROUS
It is a status given to humanoids who are competent in the
City Of Mist and to those who ostensibly cooperate with
barbarous. Formally, it is treated as a status higher than usual
barbarous.
TB (T IME B AND)

determine the situation's outcome. To “Roll a 2d”, you need
to roll two six-sided dice.
★ (STAR )
This is a measure of how well an event is resolved. PCs
can get them when they solve an event. They will also get 200
experience points for each ★ when they complete a mission.

Part 1 How to Play

 HOW TO PLAY THIS CAMPAIGN
This book is a supplement that uses the rules of SW2.0
and is played in the “City Of Mist” under the control of the
barbarous. PCs will grow through missions in the city of
unfamiliar enemies, defeating the barbarous and
sometimes cooperating with them, and if PCs finally escape
the City Of Mist, they will have achieved their goal.
Three books, “Sword World 2.0 Core Rulebook I -
III,” are required to play this book.
CITY OF MIST RULES
There are a number of differences from the normal
progression of SW2.0 in the way this book is played. While
the game's rules, such as Skill Checks and combat, remain
largely the same, the PCs’ position and objectives are very
distinctive, and the way the game progresses and how time
is divided change.
Below are some of the things to keep in mind when
playing this book, as well as some of the rules and
regulations at the City Of Mist.
City Map
The city is located in the central part of the Razeldawn
continent, facing Lake Chess. The city, centered on the
Jade Tower, is so vast that it is divided into nearly 40 blocks,
each of which is dotted with facilities and ruins.
Not much is known about the City Of Mist, and
because of the fog over the city, there are no maps of the
city; even the barbarous who have been in the City Of Mist
for a long time only know the parts of the city they frequent.
Each place is also a mystery, and it is said that only the ruler,
“Green General” Yahakkazesh, knows the entire area.
Class System
The City Of Mist has a hierarchical system, from top to
bottom: upper barbarous, honorary barbarous, barbarous,
slaves, and vagabonds.
The class system is absolute, and those of lower status
are not allowed to disobey those of a higher status. If a
lower-ranking person harms or damages an upper-ranking
person, even through negligence, they will be punished.
Most of them will be killed.
U PPER B ARBAROUS
The ruling class of the City Of Mist. Powerful
barbarous with a monster level of 6 or higher, including
Yahakkazesh, the Lord of the City Of Mist, are classified as
upper barbarous.
H ONORARY BARBAROUS
This rank is given to humanoids who have contributed
to the barbarous in the City Of Mist in particular or to
humanoids who have pledged to cooperate with the
barbarous in order to avenge the humanoids. A person can
become honorary barbarous by nomination from an upper
barbarous.
A barbarous cannot become honorary barbarous.
Although honorary barbarous is supposed to be in a higher
position than ordinary barbarous, in practice this is not the
case.
An honorary barbarous is given an “Honorary
Bracelet” so that they can be recognized just by looking at
it.
B ARBAROUS
This is the most common class in the City Of Mist. In
this city, any barbarous monster basically belongs to this
class. Even within the same barbarous class, there are
substantial differences in strength.
Barbarous may feed on humanoids but rarely feed on
honorary barbarous or slaves.
SLAVES
A slave is a humanoid who has been captured by a
barbarous or taken from being a vagabond. The slave
becomes a human slave of the barbarous and is kept by the
upper barbarous or barbarous as a labor force. An
honorary barbarous can also have slaves.
Slaves are humanoids, but they are rarely attacked by
barbarous because slaves are the property of their
barbarous masters. Barbarous would be reluctant to take or
kill them without permission.
The slave is given a “slave's collar” by their master. This
collar represents who the slave's master is and is a magical
item that allows the master to strangle the slave at will. For
this reason, it means death for the slave to disobey their
master.
Once you become a slave of a particular barbarous, you
basically cannot change your status unless your master
releases you. If you are assigned as a slave of another
barbarous, you may be allowed to change masters.
VAGABONDS
The vagabonds are the lowest class in the City Of Mist;
they are not treated as people and live huddled together in
the abandoned settlements and ruins of the City Of Mist.
Without food or means to work, the barbarous attack and
hunt the vagabonds for food or for entertainment.
Most vagabonds want to be someone else's slave, and
few are willing to question their position or actively work to
improve it. They have little knowledge of the world outside
of the City Of Mist, so they do not even think about
escaping.
City Of Mist Taboos
The City Of Mist has unwritten rules that are unique to
this city. Death awaits only the slave or vagabond who
breaks these rules.
DANGERS OF F LIGHT
The City Of Mist has air defenses everywhere and is
monitored at all times by the magical devices of the
Magitech Civilization period. PCs flying in the air above the
surrounding buildings are sure to be spotted by these
magical devices and will continue to be attacked while
flying.
7
 Any PC who flies anywhere in the City Of Mist and is
spotted by magical devices will die unconditionally. It is
impossible to escape from the City Of Mist by flying.
However, lildraken and monsters who can fly can use the
racial ability [Sword’s Grace / Wings Of The Wind] and
unique skills [Flying] and [Floating] by floating low enough
to be detected by magical devices (so will gain their
bonuses).
PCs staying at the City Of Mist know this (GM should
warn them).
F ORBIDDEN T ERRITORIES
There are areas of the City Of Mist that should not be
approached by slaves or vagabonds. The “Jade Tower” in
the center of the city and the canal surrounding the tower
are two such areas where slaves and vagabonds may be
harmed simply by approaching.
N OTATIONS
Various notations appear in this document. Here is
what each represents.
When the sentence “to be determined at random”
appears in the text, please use dice or other means to
determine the row to be selected so that all items have an
equal probability of being selected.
[I NTRODUCTION X: YY]
An introduction of how the PCs came to the City Of
Mist. There are multiple introductions, and they can be
selected by rolling 1d.
OVERALL PROGRESS AND MANAGEMENT
When playing this book, there are some parts of the
process that differ from a normal session, such as
movement and the passage of time. Below are the rules for
how to proceed when playing this book and some of our
rules for different situations.
In the event of any discrepancy between the rulings in
this book and those in the respective rulebooks, the
descriptions in this book should, in principle, take
precedence over those in the rulebooks.
It is possible, but not recommended, to adopt the rules
in this document for regular sessions.
ABOUT PCS
When using this book, please pay attention to the
following.
GM and PCs
This book is a supplement for 1-6 players.
A GM is not required to play this book; everyone can
play as PCs, with one PC reading designated text. The game
can be played even by one player alone as a solo adventure.
Of course, having a GM will make various processes
smoother. The best example of this would be fighting
monsters. With GM, he/she can read specified texts and
decide what happens next based on the choices and actions
of the PCs.
8
[X: YY], [F IXED SECTION X: YY]
This represents each section. When PCs move to a
blank block, the corresponding section appears, and an
event occurs. A “Fixed Section” preceded by a number
indicates that it is a fixed section that has been written on
the map from the beginning.
A-1, B-2, AND SO ON
This represents the location point of each block. When
PCs receive an introduction or a mission and decide on the
destination, refer to the “Block Table” (see p. 141) and fill
in the destination in the corresponding location.
$, $$, $$$ (T REASURE)
The $ represents how much the treasure is worth. The
more symbols, the higher the value of the treasure.
★ (STAR )
★ represents the degree of accomplishment of a
mission or resolution of an event, as described in the
contents of the section (see p. 24). Also, at the end of the
mission, PCs will get experience points (200 points for
everyone they get if they have accomplished the mission)
according to the number of ★.
PCs should track the number of ★ they are currently
having in the City Of Mist using an adventure sheet (see p.
143).
Notes on Creation
As a rule, PCs should be used immediately after
creation without any additional XP.
Players may create a character in advance, or you may
read the Introduction (see p. 19) in this book and check the
situation before creating a character. If the GM is present,
the GM should decide when to create characters.
PC may buy equipment, have money, etc., as they are,
but depending on the Introduction, they may lose them.
When creating a character to play this book, every
character learns how to speak Barbaric from the beginning.
In addition, since many Magitech Civilization Period
ruins and inscriptions appear, it is recommended that a
character capable of reading magitech be included.
PC'S P OSITION
A PC's position in the City Of Mist is determined by its
Introduction. A PC which becomes a slave is given a Slave's
Collar and is considered the property of the master. The
Slave's Collar should be treated as an accessory to be worn
around the neck.
PCs with some Introductions begin as vagabonds. A
vagabond has a lower status than a slave and is not treated
properly. They have no rights of their own, and there is no
time for relaxation.
ABOUT NIGHTMARES AND [ALTERNATE F ORM]
In the City Of Mist, there is no custom of shunning
those with soulscars, and since no one cares about the
details of the humanoid's appearance, the nightmare PC
can always be in [Alternate Form].
ABOUT P RIEST CLASS AND F AITH
Since the setting is a barbarous city, belief in the deities
associated with the First Sword of Lumiere is not publicly
recognized, and the PCs may be attacked if they are found
to be believers in those deities or use their specialized
divine magic.
Also, since the City Of Mist is located in the Agia region
of the Razeldawn Continent, the priests of the Minor Gods
listed in “Core Rulebook I - III” will have their MP cost
increased by 2. There will be no +1 MP cost for Major
Gods because there is a hidden temple or a dusty cave of
each Major God somewhere in the City Of Mist where
there are Bases or Keepers, and the MP cost for them will
not increase.
There is a humanoid opposition in the City Of Mist,
and if you show them proof that you are the priest of the
first sword, they will trust you unconditionally and provide
you with information.
ABOUT R IDER CLASS AND MOUNTS
The City Of Mist does not have humanoid rider guilds
and does not allow the rent of mounts. Even if the PC has
the mount, it will be stolen or killed if they bring it to the
City Of Mist.
In the City Of Mist, some several animals and
magitechs are treated as mounts by barbarous, and if the
Rider level is appropriate, these can be used by PCs as
mounts. These mounts do not need mount certificates
required by the Rider's Guild, and mounts taken or
captured can be treated as the property of the PC and
stored in the Base (upkeep is required).
Since barbarous mounts are not handled by Rider's
Guild, these mounts cannot be taken out of the City Of
Mist and deposited or sold by Rider's Guild.
T RANSLATOR N OTE. ABOUT USE OF B ARBAROUS PCS
As this book was released before Barbarous Tales and
other future supplements that add barbarous races, this
book doesn’t account for this possibility. Beware that
barbarous PCs will not work with this book as such PCs will
be considered of barbarous class (and not vagabonds or
slaves) and will break introductions and this campaign in
general. Ultimately it is up to the GM to allow or restrict
the use of barbarous PC races in this campaign.
Caution when Growing
In the City Of Mist, enemy strength and target number
of checks are determined based on the average of all PCs'
adventurer levels. When there are multiple PCs, an
increase in someone's adventurer level may increase the
difficulty of the battle or check.
For this reason, please consult carefully with other PCs
regarding growth.
OVERALL PROGRESSION
Overall Progress Chart
When using this book, follow the steps below.
Introduction
The PC's situation is determined at the beginning when
playing this book. The GM may choose whatever they like
for the Introduction, or the PCs may decide by rolling the
dice.
Once the Introduction has been decided, the situation
is read aloud and followed.
An Introduction can be played only once per campaign.
Determining Base and Keeper
Once the Introduction is complete, the current location
of the PCs should be written on the map (see p. 141).
Depending on the Introduction, the current location
may be the Base. In this case, please also note on the map
that this is the Base of PCs.
A Keeper may also be determined at the same time as
a Base. A Keeper is an NPC who is the PC's collaborator
or patron, and the PC can take missions, rest, and shop with
the Keeper. Keepers may be replaced during the Mission
Progression.
For a detailed description of Base and Keeper, please
refer to the description of each section and the NPC List
(see p. 111).
Mission Progression
Once the PC's status Base and Keeper are determined
in the Introduction section, the mission can be carried out.
A mission has a goal to be achieved by the PCs and
corresponds to one normal session. The content of the
mission is different for each keeper.
The time required to accomplish a single mission can
range from one to two hours. Missions at the beginning
tend to be shorter, and those taken later tend to be longer.
See Mission Progression (see p. 10) for more
information on mission progression.
Ending
As the PCs progress through the missions, secrets about
the City Of Mist and how to escape will be revealed, and if
the PCs successfully use this information to escape the City
Of Mist, they will reach the end of the game.
The ending of the game will depend on how PCs
escaped and what actions they have taken up to that point.
In order to reach the end, they need to accomplish 10 to
15 missions, and they need to pass the final ordeal for the
ending.
9
 MISSION PROGRESSION
Each mission proceeds in the following steps.
1. Receive Mission Orders
If PCs are not on a mission, they can take on a mission
at any time by going to the Keeper. Please refer to the
respective descriptions (see p. 94) for the content of each
mission.
When PCs receive a mission, the destination to which
they should head on that mission may be determined.
Sometimes the destination location is already determined,
and sometimes it is determined by the “Block Table” (see
p. 141).
Missions can be taken as many times as PCs want in one
campaign. But they cannot take a mission that has been
completed once.
Some missions are also called random missions. These
are missions that, unlike fixed missions, can be taken from
any keeper.
When PCs receive a random mission, they may receive
other missions, which are considered multiple missions at
the same time, and each mission should be processed as an
individual mission separately.
2. Travel
Once PCs have a destination, they will travel to the City
Of Mist to that location. They can move once per 1tb.
The City Of Mist is divided into squares called Blocks,
which PCs can travel one by one. Movement can only be
made vertically or horizontally to adjacent blocks.
Movement is basically one square at a time, but in
exceptional cases, two squares may be advanced. For
details, please refer to “Moving to a Section” (see right
column).
10
Please note that the City Of Mist is surrounded by walls,
and PCs cannot travel out of the city.
They may also stay in the same Block without traveling.
See Mist Castle Block Map (see p. 141) for an overall
view of the City Of Mist.
DANGERS OF T RAVELING AT N IGHT
If PCs move a Block when tb is “night” or “midnight”,
they may encounter monsters before reaching the
destination. See the City Of Mist at Night (see p. 14).
DANGERS OF NOT T RAVELLING
Suppose in the immediately preceding tb, one of the
PCs was casting Divine Magic while worshiping the god of
the first sword Lumiere. In that case, they must travel
somewhere or risk encountering the barbarous. See
“Priests Seen as Enemies” (see p. 14).
3. Determining Sections
Moving to a blank Block determines the section for that
location. The section is a collective term for facilities, ruins,
etc., that appear in a Block. Please refer to “How to
Determine Section” (see p. 17) to find out which section
will be placed in the Block PCs have traveled to.
Once a section is determined, it will not move or change
from that Block during the same campaign. Also, the same
section will not appear in more than one Block. The
number of blank Blocks is 36, and the number of sections
is 36, so if PCs travel through all the Blocks (or open one
as a mission destination, for example), all the sections will
appear.
For the contents of each section, please refer to the
respective descriptions.
T RAVELING T HROUGH K NOWN SECTIONS
When traveling a Block where a section has already
appeared, PCs can travel up to 2 squares per 1tb. An event
will occur at the place where travel ends.
Just because the first move is to a Block where a section
has already appeared, it is not possible to move to a blank
Block as the second part of travel during the same tb.
F IXED SECTIONS
PCs don’t know where anything will appear until the
destination is determined or they move to a blank Block.
This indicates that the PCs are unfamiliar with the
geography of the City Of Mist and have no knowledge of it.
However, there are blocks in MAP that have sections
filled in beforehand. These are called “fixed sections”. All
of them are important facilities and dangerous sections of
the city.
Fixed sections are treated the same way as sections
already appearing in “2. Travel”.
4. Event Occurrence
When a section appears, an event will occur for each of
them. Events may occur invariably, or they may be
triggered by the actions of the PCs.
The events that occur are prioritized in the order of
“Mission Events,” “Fixed Events,” and “Random Events,”
 and once one of these events occurs, no other events will
occur at the same time.
The actions taken by the PCs during the event will
change the subsequent choices and circumstances. When
checks are requested, refer to the “Target Number
Decision Table” (see p. 122) when determining the Target
Number, and refer to the Encounter Tables (see p. 122) to
estimate the monster that will appear. Similarly, the Trap
Decision Table (see p. 127) and Treasure Decision Table
(see p. 126) may be used.
Please refer to the respective descriptions of each event.
M ISSION EVENTS
These are events that occur as the mission progresses.
Be sure to read the mission section carefully and check for
mission events each time PCs move to a new section.
Mission events will not occur unless the stated
conditions are met with the mission being received.
F IXED E VENTS
Each section contains a numbered list of events that will
occur, and the events occur in numerical order.
Some events have conditions for their occurrence, such
as the time of day. If the condition is not met, the event will
not occur, and the next event in the sequence will occur.
Unless otherwise noted, the same fixed event will not
occur in the same campaign.
R ANDOM EVENTS
If PCs travel to a Block where a section has already
appeared and have already resolved all the fixed events for
that section, a random event (see p. 107) may occur.
A random event may occur any number of times in the
same section.
No random event occurs for sections without the
“Random Event” icon (see p. 13).
5. ★ Acquisition
By resolving events or winning battles, PCs may earn ★.
The ★ represents the progress of the mission. The
more they gain in the mission, the more the mission
progresses. Some missions require a certain number of ★
to be earned as a condition for completion. There are
several types of conditions for acquiring ★. Please refer to
“★Description” (see p. 13).
The ★ earned are also used to calculate earned
experience points when the mission is completed. Please
refer to “9. Growth and XP” below.
Please keep track of the number of ★ earned by using
the ★ earning chart found in the “City Of Mist Adventure
Sheet” (see p. 143).
6. PCs’ Free Time
After resolving an event or if no event occurs, the PCs
can take free actions. These actions are basically treated as
if no time has elapsed.
Free Time Actions
• Using herbs and potions
• Shopping and selling loot
• Report to Keeper at Base
• Meals
• Other actions the PCs may wish to do (up to the GM)
In addition to the above, sleep can be taken. When PCs
sleep, 10% of their HP and half of their MP (rounded up)
will be restored every 1 tb.
7. Passage of Time
When PCs travel a Block and resolve an event in one
section, 1tb will elapse. The current time should be
managed in the tb management table in the “City Of Mist
Adventure Sheet” (see p. 143).
Even if PCs do not move or an event does not occur,
1tb will pass if PCs sleep or wait. See “Passage of Time”
(see p. 14) for more information on the passage of time.
8. Mission Accomplished
Once PCs reach the destination of the mission, the
mission will progress, and a climactic event (climax) will
occur. If they resolve this event, the mission will have been
accomplished.
M ISSION F AILURE AND ABANDONMENT
A mission fails when the mission objective becomes
unobtainable due to mission conditions or death. When a
mission fails, PCs should return to the Base and report the
failure to the client. When they abandon a mission of their
own volition, PCs also should report it to the client in the
same way.
When the client is killed and the keeper changes as a
result of the “Defeat Table” (see p. 110), all missions that
have been accepted by them will automatically fail. In this
case, no report will be made to the client, and the PCs will
immediately gain XP and grow.
Fixed missions that are failed or abandoned cannot be
accepted again.
9. Growth and XP
Each time a mission is completed or failed and PCs
returns to Base, they can grow.
They can spend the ability score by growing it once and
earning experience points. Note that even if they complete
a mission, they will not earn experience points and will not
be able to grow until they return to Base.
The number of experience points they get for
completing a mission depends on the number of ★ PCs
they have when they complete the mission. PCs will get 200
experience points for each ★. If they fail a mission, they
will get 100 experience points for each of the first 5 stars
and 200 experience points for each of the 6th and
subsequent stars. Also, experience points are awarded for
the number of monsters defeated (as per the rulebook) and
for automatic failures.
Once a mission is completed, all experience points are
summed up, regardless of what kind of event they were
earned in. Then, if PCs grow, the number of ★ they have
earned will return to 0.
Even if PCs have received multiple missions if they
complete one of them and return to the base, all the★ they
11
have earned at that time will be calculated as experience
points, and the number of★ will return to 0.
10. Receive New Mission Orders
Once a mission is accomplished, a new mission can be
received at the Base. At this time, depending on the mission
accomplished, they may automatically receive a new
mission, or the Base or Keeper may be changed.
PCs can also choose not to accept a new mission. In this
case, all of the ★ they have earned up to that point will be
stored until they take another mission and complete it.
If PCs receive a new mission, proceed in the same way
again from “1. Receive Mission Orders”.
ABOUT QUESTS
When moving around the City Of Mist, PCs may
receive a Quest from an NPC.
Quests are requests received from NPCs for an
indefinite period of time. Quests may include collecting
specific items or defeating barbarous. For details, please
refer to their section descriptions.
Quests are different from missions in that they can be
completed at any time, and PCs will be rewarded and earn
★ for completing them. The ★ earned from Quests are
calculated at the time of completion of the mission, just like
other ★.
Quests may be obtained from more than one NPC at
the same time and do not necessarily have to be completed;
once a Quest is completed, the same NPC may continue to
provide Quests.
ABOUT TABLES
When playing this book, you will use a variety of tables.
This section describes the situations in which each table is
used and how to use it.
Each table may use dice to determine the contents. If
there is a GM present, these dice may be rolled by any of
the PCs or by the GM. If there is any doubt as to who
should roll the dice, the PCs may take turns.
Random Missions (see p. 101)
Random missions can be obtained by asking a keeper.
Random missions can only be received from keepers, and
new random missions cannot be received when other fixed
or random missions are in progress (fixed missions can be
received while random missions are in progress).
Roll 1d then determines the random mission's content
and follows each mission's instructions. Unlike regular
missions, PCs can receive the same random mission as
many times as they wish.
Random missions proceed in the same way as fixed
missions.
Random Events (see p. 107)
A Random Event is an event that occurs at random
when PCs move to a block where a section has already
appeared. Random events cannot occur in sections that do
not have a “Random Event” icon.
12
A random event will occur if neither a mission-related
event nor a fixed event occurs. To determine it roll 1d.
If an event that has already happened is chosen, add 1d
more to the first one, and a random event with a number
corresponding to the sum of the roll will occur. If the same
event also was chosen, then the number is added again by
1d. The same random event will never occur twice.
There are only 20 random events available. If the result
of rolls is 21 or more, the lowest numbered of the random
events that have not yet occurred will automatically occur.
After all 20 random events have occurred, the random
events are determined again from the beginning, assuming
that all random events have not yet occurred.
Encounter Tables (see p. 122)
The Encounter Table determines the type of monsters
and the number of monsters to fight. It is used when
monsters appear in missions, events in sections, arenas, etc.
Go to the Encounter Table of the classification indicated in
the event.
DETERMINATION OF M ONSTER T YPE
To determine the type of monster, first, determine the
average of all the PCs' adventurer levels and see where it
applies; then, roll the number of dice determined by the
number of PCs, and the monster corresponding to that roll
appears. If there are 4 or more PCs, 2 dice are rolled, and
two monsters will appear (or groups) at the same time (if
the rolls are the same, the number of monsters is doubled).
Number of PCs Dice to Roll
1 1d
2 1d+1
3 1d+2
4 Twice 1d
5 Twice 1d+1
6 Twice 1d+2
B OSS M ONSTERS
When PCs battle a monster, the “boss” or “treat it as a
boss” statement will make the monster a boss.
When rolling on Encounter Table to make a boss
appear, the average of the PCs' adventurer level is treated
as 1 higher than usual. If there are multiple monsters and 1
character is treated as the boss, one of them is treated as
the boss, and the others appear as they are. When there are
4 or more PCs, and the Encounter Table needs to be rolled
twice, one roll is made with the average level of the PCs as
it is, and the other roll is made with the average level 1
higher, and the boss appears.
Bosses always have a number of sword shards equal to
their monster level. See “Enhancement by means of 'Sword
Shards'“ (see CR I, p. 401).
Target Number Decision Table (see p. 122)
The Target Number Decision Table is used when a
Skill Check is requested during an event.
As in the Encounter Table, the average of the PCs'
adventurer levels is calculated, and the Target Number of
the check is determined according to the description. “TN
A” is the target number for relatively easy checks, “TN C”
is the target number for difficult checks, and “TN B” is
somewhere in between.
Once the Target Number is determined, a Skill Check
is performed; if the success value is greater than or equal to
the previously determined Target Number, the check is
successful.
The Target Number Decision Table can be used when
specified and when PCs want to perform a check in various
situations (or when GM wants to ask for a check).
Treasure Decision Table (see p. 126)
The Treasure Decision Table is a table that determines
what treasures can be found in treasure chests at events or
given as rewards by keepers.
The treasures that appear at the event have a fixed value
of “$,” “$$,” and “$$$.” The more $s, the more valuable
the treasure is.
When a treasure is found, the player rolls 2d to obtain
the treasure corresponding to the roll and its value. The
higher the result, the more valuable the treasure is.
The value listed for the treasure is the price at the time
of sale. If equipment is acquired, the sale price is half the
purchase price.
Trap Decision Table (see p. 127)
The Trap Decision Table determines the nature and
scale of the traps featured in the event. 1d should be rolled
to determine the type of trap corresponding to the A, B,
OTHER RULES
Here are some rules unique to this book, other than the
overall progress and management, such as detailed rules on
the passage of time, what can be done at the base, and death
and resurrection.
OUT OF PLACE DESCRIPTIONS
The descriptions in the text of the main scenario in this
book can sometimes be unnatural, depending on the
number of PCs, the presence or absence of a GM, the
ongoing situation, and other factors. For example, there are
descriptions of NPCs who have already met and those who
are meeting for the first time or when a randomly
determined event or monster does not fit the situation.
At these times, we recommend that you play the game
with a certain tolerance for the unnaturalness of the
situation; in the presence of a GM, the GM's judgment will
take precedence over the descriptions and settings in this
book.
ABOUT ICONS
Each section may have icons listed. These icons are of
four types and represent what happens in that section and
what the PCs can do voluntarily.
Below is a description of the icons listed.
Keeper Icon
A section where there is an NPC who may be a
keeper. If PCs are friendly with the NPC, they
can treat this section as a Base.
and C sizes. “A” size is a trap that causes relatively little
damage, and the further you advance to “B” and “C,” the
more damage it causes.
DETERMINATION OF T ARGET N UMBER FOR DANGER
SENSE AND DISABLE DEVICE
When a trap appears in an event, before deciding
whether or not to disarm the trap, the type of trap should
be determined in advance using the Trap Decision Table.
The Target Number of the Danger Sense check to find the
trap and the Target Number of the Disable Device check
to remove the trap are determined by the size of the trap.
The Target Number is determined by comparing the
average of the PC's adventurer level and the size of the trap
to the Target Number Decision Table (p. 122).
If there is no GM, the PCs will know the type of trap
before disarming it, but even if they know the contents of
the trap, they cannot notice the trap without a successful
Danger Sense check, and they cannot disarm it without a
successful Disable Device check.
DESCRIPTION OF THE T RAP
Depending on the Trap Decision Table, a trap may be
decided upon that is not appropriate for the location. If the
GM is present and feels that the trap is unnatural, he/she
may change it to another trap.
Random Event Icon
If no mission event or fixed event occurs in the
section with this item, a random event will occur.
Rest Icon
The section is where there is a safe place to rest
(sleep).
Sale Icon (Buy/Sell icon)
This section allows PCs to sell items such
as equipment, loot, and sword shards to
exchange them for gamels. When the second buy/sell icon
is displayed, PCs can buy more equipment and supplies.
★DESCRIPTIONS
The ★ that can be earned by resolving events, and there
are several types of ★. Each should be handled as follows.
+★
Whenever that event occurs, PCs will receive the
number of ★ listed. Once PCs receive one, they will not be
able to receive any more for the same event.
(+★)
Depending on how the event is resolved, PCs may or
may not receive a ★. Once they receive one, they will not
be able to receive one in the same event after that.
13
+★ ( *)
It is listed for events that occur any number of times.
Each time an event is resolved once, PCs will receive the
number of ★listed for that event. Some events have a fixed
number of occurrences.
PASSAGE OF TIME
TB ( TIME BAND)
When playing this book, time is managed in a special
way: the City Of Mist divides the day into six time bands,
and one time period is called 1tb (one band). tb has six
different parts: morning, noon, evening, night, midnight,
and dawn, with morning, starting at 6 a.m. 1 TB lasts about
four hours.
When the pcs make travel and resolve the event, 1tb
elapses.1tb can be passed even if they do not move or do
nothing at that location. No event will occur at the Base, but
it is possible to rest there.
Rerolling Checks
Some Skill Checks take a long time to complete. If PCs
fail these checks and try again, more time will pass.
The City Of Mist will not allow PCs to retry a check that
requires more than 6 hours to complete.
City Of Mist at Night
City Of Mist at night is dark, and humanoids cannot act
properly without lights. When tb is night, midnight, or
dawn, they receive a -4 penalty modifier due to poor
visibility without lights. When using torches, a minimum of
two torches must be consumed per tb.
If PCs try to travel at night or midnight, they may
encounter wandering barbarous or bandits. When
declaring travel, the players should roll 2d, and if the roll is
6 or less, the player encounters these monsters, and a battle
ensues. The type of the monsters encountered is
determined by the Encounter Table (see p. 122). This
encounter will not occur unless the travel is made at night
or midnight.
If PCs are vagabonds, they also need to roll 2d when
traveling at dawn. If the resulting roll is 6 or less, the PCs
encounter a monster.
Therefore, traveling between night and dawn can be
quite dangerous.
Priests Seen as Enemies
If PCs cast Specialized Divine Magic linked to the first
sword Lumiere at that section and tb has elapsed, they may
encounter a barbarous if they stay at that location. After not
traveling, before the event occurs, roll 2d, and if the roll is
6 or less, a barbarous are encountered, roll using
“Barbarous Encounter Table” (see p. 122), and a battle
ensues.
If the location where PCs are staying is Base, this
encounter will not occur.
Sleep and Food
Core Rulebooks state that 3 hours of sleep will restore
10% of your HP and half of your MP. However, in the City
14
Of Mist, a PC can recover this in 1tb, not in 3 hours of
sleep.
The PC can recover by sleeping up to 2tb per day. Sleep
can only be performed in the “Base,” where it is clearly
marked with the rest icon.
PCs must also eat one meal per day in the City Of Mist.
They can eat a day's worth of preserved food or at any of
the places listed as having food available. Time will not pass
after PCs eat.
If a character has not eaten or slept between “morning”
and “dawn,” the next “morning,” they lose 1 point of
maximum HP and MP and take a -1 penalty to all checks.
This penalty is cumulative for both eating and sleeping. A
meal penalty is eliminated when PC eats, and a sleep
penalty is eliminated after sleep.
Summary
See Time Lapse Chart (see the next page) for the 1tb
time passage.
WHAT PCS CAN DO A BASES
In addition to receiving missions, growing, etc., PCs can
also do the following at the base. However, the details differ
depending on the type of Base and the keeper. For details,
please refer to the description of each section.
Sleep
At Base, PCs can sleep safely. Safe sleeping may be free
of charge, and if there is a fee, the fee will be listed.
Shopping (ammunition, preserved food,
torches, rope)
Ammunition, food preserves, torches, and ropes can be
purchased at any time at Base. Other equipment and
supplies can only be purchased at the section where they
are listed as available for purchase.
Sell Loot
PCs can sell loot at the Base acquired from monsters,
sword shards, and other items. The price of the loot
remains the same, and a single sword shard can be sold for
200G.
Sword shards cannot be deposited and used to increase
reputation because the City of Mist does not have an
adventurer's guild.
Leave Money or Goods with the Keeper
Keepers can store a portion of PCs MONEY, various
items, mounts, etc., for free. Please record the items PCs
deposit in the “Money and Items Deposited with Keepers”
section of the City Of Mist Adventure Sheet (see p. 143).
Even if PCs lose their equipment or items they were
carrying as a result of the Defeat Table (see p. 110), PCs
will not lose any of the gold they deposited with the Keeper.
However, if they betray the Keeper's trust or the
“Eradication Chart” results in the Keeper being changed,
PCs will lose all of the gold and goods they deposited.
Create a Shrine
A PC with the Priest class can create a shrine (see CR
III, p. 223). If they create a shrine in the Base, the MP cost
for a particular Minor God will not be increased inside the
City Of Mist.
However, if PC creates a shrine in any other place than
a Base, it will be destroyed the next day by the barbarous
and others who roam the city.
PCS SEPARATION
Although multiple PCs can act differently, this is not
recommended when playing this book.
When making decisions in the Encounter Table, etc.,
please make sure to make decisions based on the number
of all PCs participating in the session, not on the number
of PCs at that moment.
EXTENSIVE EFFECTS AND LONG-TERM
EFFECTS
Effects that have a radius of 1km or more, such as
magic, are considered to have an effect on the entire Block.
Also, effects with an effect duration of 3 hours or more,
such as magic, are effective for 1tb.
ABOUT MONSTERS
In the City Of Mist, combat will always occur when the
PCs encounter a monster, such as a barbarous or a
humanoid bandit. Monsters who appear in the Encounter
Table will not surrender even if the situation is unfavorable
but will fight until they are defeated. Even if PCs capture
and interrogate them after they are defeated, they will not
get any particular information from them.
If a GM is present, monsters in the Encounter Table
may surrender or flee in order to temporarily delay the
processing of the battle. In this case, the enemy who
surrendered or fled should be recorded as defeated for
experience points.
Distance at the Start of the Combat
When combat begins, unless otherwise stated, the
distance between the PCs and monsters at the start of
combat is 5 meters. If there is more than one PC, the
distance between the PC in front and the monster will be 5
meters, and the other PCs will be within 5 meters behind.
If there are multiple monsters, they are placed in the
same way as the PCs; if there is a GM, he/she is free to
decide which monster is in front of which; if there is no
GM, all monsters are placed as close to the PCs as possible.
Translator Note: This book was released when only
advanced combat was present in the original Core
Rulebooks, so feel free to adapt these rules for simplified
and standard combat.
Monster Knowledge
The PCs’ knowledge of the encountered monster is
determined as usual by the Monster Knowledge check.
However, in the absence of a GM, regardless of the
results of the monster knowledge check, one of the players
must see the monster data in order to process the battle.
Therefore, the PCs will automatically succeed on all
Monster Knowledge checks only when there is no GM
present.
15
 Of course, PC with Sage class must roll check greater
than or equal to the weakness to identify weak points.
Please note that a successful Monster Knowledge check
should be recorded in the “Special Rules for PC and NPC
Death and Resuscitation” (see this page). Once a PC that
has successfully completed a Monster knowledge check
dies, it can be resurrected by asking the Keeper to do so.
And if a character who made Monster Knowledge is alive,
data can be checked the next time monster is encountered.
Whether or not a weak point can be detected is done on a
combat-by-combat basis.
ACTIONS OF M ONSTER IN COMBAT
The GM basically decides what the monster will do in
combat; in the absence of the GM, the monster will attack
a randomly selected target with as much damage as
possible.
If you want to determine the monster's action in any
other way, you may roll 1d and take action corresponding
to the roll in the Monster’s Action Decision Chart (see p.
126). If it is not possible to make an action corresponding
to the roll, refer to the lower row. If that is not possible,
refer to the lower row again and so on.
M ONSTERS R IDING M OUNT
In the City Of Mist, monsters on mounts sometimes
appear, such as a Mounted Bandit (CR III, p. 410). The
mounts of these monsters are not horses, but Bohr (see p.
139) and Ox (see p. 139), which are available in City Of
Mist. If you have a GM, you can replace the horse data
from monster data with these mounts' data if you wish.
ESCAPE
There may be times when the PCs may wish to flee the
battle. In that case, they can attempt to escape in the
following ways.
First, all fleeing PCs must be able to make a Full Move.
Then, at the beginning of the PCs' turn, all PCs
attempting to escape the need to roll Adventurer level +
Agility modifier, and the Target Number is “Monster level
+ 7”, which is generally the highest among the participating
monsters in the battle.
Compare the difference between the success value and
the Target Number and consult with Escape Table (see p.
126).
HOW TO USE A MAP
When playing this book, you will be playing while filling
in the Mist Castle Block Map (see p. 141).
Map blank blocks can be determined as mission
destinations or randomly determined by PCs’ travel.
This section describes how to fill a map.
HOW TO DETERMINE DESTINATION
When deciding on the “Base” during the Introduction
or when deciding on the destination after receiving a
mission, PCs decide in which Block in the Map the desired
section is located.
16
DEFEAT
If all PCs are defeated by the monster, or if all PCs are
disabled, or if the PCs declare a surrender to the monsters,
the PCs are defeated by the monster.
In the event of defeat, refer to the Defeat Table (see p.
110) and roll 1d consulting with it.
Also, if the PCs are subjected to petrification, curse, or
other effects that continue even if they are defeated, they
will die regardless of the result of the Defeat Table.
SPECIAL RULES FOR DEATH AND
RESURECTION
If PCs die, they can be revived by asking the keeper to
do so. There are roughly two ways to revive a PC. One is
to borrow 10,000G from the Keeper and ask to be revived
by Spiritualism Magic [Resurrection]. When revived by this
method, the revived PCs will not be able to escape from the
City Of Mist until the debt is paid off.
The other method is to leave the body with “Grave
Robber” Mugido (see p. 120), and have him revive the
corpse after making modifications to it. In this case, some
parts of the body will be altered. Refer to the “Magic
Transformation Table (see p. 128).
PCs undergoing Magic Transformation are revived
after 1 day (6tb); if there are multiple PCs, 1 day is required
for each PC. While someone is undergoing Magic
Transformation, the other PCs are detained by Mugido
and cannot do anything.
In both cases, the soulscars are accumulated according
to the number of days it took to resurrect the patient.
Resurrection without Keeper
PC vagabonds or without a Keeper are automatically
resurrected by Magic Transformation. If all the PCs are
resurrected after being defeated, the process is as described
in row “7” of the “Defeat Table” (see p. 110).
Death by “Slave’s Collar”
If the PCs displease their master or leave the City Of
Mist while wearing the slave's collar, they will be killed by
the collar's magic (they will be defeated). If the PC is
resurrected, it will be dealt with as in row “7” of the “Defeat
Table” (see p. 110).
To determine the Block where the section is to be
placed, roll 1d, look at the first column of the Block Table
(see p. 141) and place the section in the Block that
corresponds to the roll. Write the number and name of the
corresponding section on the map.
If the Block marked in the first column already contains
another section, it refers to the next column on the right
and places the section in the corresponding Block.
If all Blocks from the 1st Blocks to the 6th Blocks are
occupied by other sections, the section is placed in the
nearest vacant Blocks from the PC's current Blocks. If
there are multiple empty Blocks close to the PC, then the
block is randomly determined by dice or other means.

Examples of how to Determine Destination
Suppose that you have to decide where the Base is to
be located in the Introduction section.
First, roll 1d and look at the first column of the Block
Table. If the result is 4, the section of the base is placed in
the D-5 block on the MAP.
After playing Introduction, suppose you need to take
on a mission and decide on a destination.
Then, 1d is rolled again. If the roll is 2, the destination
section is placed in Block C-4. If the roll is a 4, the first row
D-5 is already occupied, and the destination section is
placed in Block D-2 in the second column.
HOW TO DETERMINE THE SECTION
If the PC travels to a blank Block, you need to
randomly determine the section placed in that Block.
First, 1d is rolled twice, and the result is a two-digit
number, which is the number of the section to be placed in
the block.
If the roll is 4 and 2, it means that the section of [42:
Cul-De-Sac Tenement House] will be placed there.
Once the section is determined, write the section
number and name in the blank block to which PCs have
traveled.
GM ADVISES
When GMing using this book, please note the following
HOW TO PROVIDE INFORMATION
As GM, you may read the descriptions in this book out
loud when giving information to the PCs, such as sections,
events, and important information. However, it is a good
idea to check beforehand which parts of the book will be
read out loud, as some parts of the book should remain
hidden from PCs, as they might be key to solving mysteries.
MANIPULATING RANDOM DECISIONS
As GM, you may intentionally change randomly
determined parts of the book to make the session more
interesting, such as the placement of sections, events, or the
If the section determined at random is already placed
in another Block, 1d is added, and if it is 1-3, the section
with the smaller section number is placed. If it is 4-6, place
the section with the higher section. If all the smaller (larger)
section numbers have already been placed, the larger
(smaller) section number is placed.
Example of how to Determine Section
Suppose that section numbers 14, 21, 22, and 23 are
already placed in some blocks, and the PCs travel to a blank
block.
To determine the section to be placed, 1d was rolled

ON GM’S AUTHORITY
If GM's ruling differs from the description in this book,
GM's ruling will take precedence in principle. However, if
you just make different rulings each time, there will be
more parts that do not fit the descriptions of this book, and
it may become more difficult to run this campaign. GMs

Part 2 Main Scenario

 ENTERING THE CITY OF MIST
PCs are in the City Of Mist.
First, the PCs must decide why they are in the city. Roll
1d (or choose with GM) and refer to the Introduction
Decision Table. This will determine why the PCs are in the
City Of Mist, how they came to the City Of Mist, and the
purpose of their adventure in the City Of Mist.
INTRODUCTION 1: CAPTIVITY
The PCs were adventurers based in the adventurer's guild
in Kashkarn. However, they were captured after an unlucky
encounter with a powerful group of barbarous on their first
adventure. The barbarous captives were brought to the City
Of Mist.
All equipment, possessions, and money must be erased
from the character sheets.
In the City Of Mist, the PCs are sold as slaves. The PCs,
who have been training to become adventurers, are sold at a
higher price than the other slaves, much to the delight of the
barbarous who have captured them.
At this point, it must be determined who won the bid for
the PCs. Roll 1d then refers to the “Master Decision Table”
to determine who won the bid for the PCs. In a party's case, it
is assumed that the same person won all the bids.
The master puts a Slave’s Collars on the PCs (see p. 4).
They cannot refuse this, and even if they resist, the slave city's
barbarous will seize PCs and forcibly put a Slave’s Collar
around their neck.
Once the master has been determined, refer to the
respective master's section to proceed with the game.
Wearing a Slave’s Collar
Put Slave's Collar in the Neck accessory field on the
character sheet.
Master Decision Table
1–2 Go to “1. Honorary Barbarous Yamur”
3–4 Go to “2. Daemon Tamer Zabar”
5–6 Go to “3. Shepherd Don Bucado”
1. HONORARY BARBAROUS YAMUR
PCs are sold to a dwarf man with a long beard woven into
an artful shape, with a number of dangling accessories. He is
an honorary barbarous named Yamur, who runs a bar, and
PCs were bought to be employees. In fact, he uses his position
as an honorary barbarous to protect many slaves. Yamur tells
this to reassure the PCs.
Yamur takes the PCs to [32:Yamur's Bar] and asks them
to work at the bar. When working at the bar, refer to
[32:Yamur's Bar] to get paid.
If the PCs offer to escape from the city, Yamur will allow
them to find a way out using the tavern as a base. During this
time, the PCs do not have to work in the tavern. However,
they can work anytime they are in need of money and earn
pay. He will give 1,000 gamel to each PC. He also
recommends that they go to [22: Open-air Market] if they
want to buy equipment. He also will say that if they get in touch
with the Wind Brigade, one of the organizations that oppose

information. He tells PCs that a young man named Melchior,
a member of the Wind Brigade, lives at [41: Bandit's Path].

Thereafter, [32:Yamur's Bar] becomes a Base. Decide the

Yamur will remove the Slave's Collar whenever the PCs
want to become vagabonds (not slaves).

2. DAEMON TAMER ZABAR
PCs are sold to a male tabbit with bluish black fur.
He is Daemon Tamer Zabar, the most famous
businessman in the City Of Mist. As his name implies, he has
a large number of daemons, and the PCs find themselves
surrounded by something invisible, “bumping shoulders with
nothing” and the like. It is the Invisible Daemon Godbell (CR
III, p. 397).
Zabar brings the PCs to his store, [53: Tricolored Tents].
He then promises that if they serve him well enough, he will
eventually release them from their slavery and allow them to
escape the city. He then orders PCs to retrieve a lost item from
[33:River of Bones]. The lost item is a Red Gem Pendant.
Zabar tells the PCs that they will not make it out alive without
weapons and armor and that they may take equipment or
items from his goods, up to 1,200 gamels per person. This is
where PCs should get their equipment and personal
belongings in order.
However, Zabar does not tell PCs exactly where [33: River
of Bones] is located. Zabar says, “I don't need a useless person
who can't even find River of Bones”. PCs must start by finding
[33:River of Bones].
Zabar Becomes the Keeper
Thereafter, [53:Tricolored Tents] will become the Base.
The Block of [53:Tricolored Tents] should be determined
and written on the map.
Zabar will remove the Slave's Collar for a fee of 6,000
Zabar points. Zabar points can be earned by completing

 INTRODUCTION 2: REQUEST
PCs received a request from Howl Barkman, the “The
Knight of Steel” (see CR II, p. 243), the captain of the
Kashkarn garrison. The request was to deliver orders to
adventurers who had infiltrated the City Of Mist as spies. The
reward was 2,000 gamels per person, quite a lot of money for
a new adventurer. This is because they have to risk infiltrating
the City Of Mist.
Barkman has arranged a way to infiltrate the city. The
pirate Orzozo, the “Blue Butcher,” will transport the PCs to
the City Of Mist. Orzozo is a lildraken with the backing of a
powerful upper barbarous who is allowed to enter and leave
the City Of Mist.
The PCs are transferred from the merchant ship to
Orzozo's ship, the “Three-Headed Golden Dragon,” in the
waters near Kashkarn, and after a few days of sailing, they
arrive safely at the City Of Mist's [Fixed Section 1: Port].
When the PCs disembarked from the ship, Orzozo said,
“Your guests will be waiting for you in the square near Prison
this afternoon. I'm leaving this port at dawn. If you don't come
back by then, I'll leave you behind.” At this point, tb is
morning. [66: Prison] is located in Block (B-4) next to the
port, and if PCs leave immediately, they can meet up with the
intended adventurers at noon.
Write [66: Prison] in B-4 on the map.
As planned, the PCs hurry to the rendezvous point and
arrive at the desired plaza around noon. As they look around
for the adventurers, a man approaches and says, “It's foggy
again today,” which the PCs realize is the password Barkman
had given them. When the PCs reply correctly, he nods and
whistles, “Well, it looks like you're the one from the Knights
of Steel,” and then he turns to the man and says, “I'm sure the
wind from the south will blow the fog away someday.” Then a
dozen or so barbarous figures emerge from the surrounding
streets and buildings and surround the PCs. The man reveals
himself as an Ogre (CR II, p. 303) in front of them and sneers,
“I've already bloodied the ones you're looking for. Now,
behave yourself and give me a written order from the Knight
of Steel”.
If the PCs offer the order, Ogre will take it from them by
force. In any case, there is no way to win a fight against this
many barbarous, and Ogre will take them alive, whether the
PCs like it or not, in order to sell them as slaves on the slave
market and make a profit. Until then, the PCs are confined in
[66: Prison]. At this time, all of their belongings will be taken
away. However, do not erase them from the character sheet
yet, as they may be able to get them back later.
While PCs is in the cold Prison, time passes in vain, and
the dawn that Orzozo said he would set sail for passes. As
dawn begins to break, a stifled man's voice is heard from
outside the prison, where PCs is being held captive: “I knew
this would happen. I'm under Orzozo's command. The
master has already left the ship, but he was worried about you,
so he sent me to check up on you,” the man says. Then he
asks, “Well, you'll have to make a choice. With the money
your employer is paying me, I can either take you to Kashkarn
or get you out of this prison. Which is it?”
PCs must choose between “get a boat ride to Kashkarn”
and “take them out of Prison.”
If PCs Choose “Get a boat ride to Kashkarn”
PCs will be sold as slaves. If they remove the “Slave's
Collar” by themself and contact the Orzozo, they should be
able to escape from the City Of Mist. The man tells them that
his ship will be back in port in 30 days and will only be docked
for three days. The GM should remember to keep track of
the number of days.
PCs are sold as slaves on the slave market the next day.
Refer to Introduction 1: Captivity (see p. 19) to determine who
bought them and proceed with the game. All belongings are
taken and never returned. All possessions must be erased
from the character sheet.
If PCs Choose “Take Them out of Prison”
Soon after, PCs escape. The man seems to have used a
hidden passageway to enter and put the barbarous on guard
duty to sleep with a sleeping potion. The man uses the same
hidden passage to take the PCs out of prison, returns the order
book, and gives them back their orders and all their stolen
belongings. He then says, “This is the end of the work for the
money I was paid. I'm sorry, but you'll have to find your own
way out of town. By the way, if you want to board the master's
boat, the fee is 5,000 gamel per person. The master's boat will
return to the port after 30 days and stay there for 3 days.” GMs
should remember to keep track of the number of days.
The man added, “It must be a problem for you, too, to be
thrown into the city like this. Why don't you open up that
order and see what happens? If you are lucky, the order might
tell you what to do next.”
The PCs recall that Barkman had said, “If anything should
happen to the undercover adventurers, I will allow you to
open this order at your discretion.”
If the PCs open an order, they should roll 1d and consult
the Order Decision Table to determine the contents of the
order. All orders state that each PC will receive 50,000 gamel
of silver (or, in game terms, money plus 1000 points of
reputation) for each person who fulfills the order and returns
to Kashkarn.
If they do not open the order, the PCs must continue the
adventure on their own initiative. They begin the adventure at
[66: Prison].
In any case, the man says, “Well, good luck,” and leaves.
At this stage, tb is morning.

1. INVESTIGATE THE MAGIC DEVICE
In the City Of Mist, there is a special magical device from
the Magitech Civilization period that was designed to fight
against barbarous. Sneak into the City Of Mist and bring back
information on the magical device.
First, PCs are suggested to meet someone called Ursula of
the Trees. She runs a free clinic for vagabonds and slaves.
With her help, PCs will be able to gather information.
However, they do not know where Ursula is. First, they need

2. MAKE CONTACT WITH RESISTANCE
At least three organizations in the City Of Mist are
opposed to the barbarous rule. In order to take back the city
from the barbarous, it is essential to cooperate with them.
First, PCs need to meet Daemon Tamer Zabar, a
merchant who, as his nickname suggests, can use daemons.
For this reason, he is highly respected by the upper barbarous
and is the most famous merchant in the City Of Mist.
Under his protection, PCs will need to seek out resistance
organizations and try get in contact with them. Zabar can be
found [53: Tricolored Tents].
No Keeper
Note that the PCs have not yet acquired a keeper or Base.
They are considered to be vagabonds.
INTRODUCTION 3: HOME
PCs are vagabonds born and raised in the this City Of Mist.
In this city ruled by barbarous who feed on people, many
people are ruthlessly killed by barbarous on a daily basis.
Among them were people who were important to the PCs,
such as family members, friends, and close neighbors. The
PCs have secretly prepared to escape from this city,
determined to get out of this life. They have been able to save
up enough money to equip themselves with the right
equipment, not to mention physical training and learning how
to handle weapons. However, most of the equipment available
in the city is second-hand or defective, and its performance is
inferior to that of ordinary items.
Any weapons the PCs have been reduced by -1 to Extra
Damage. Likewise, the Defense of armor is reduced by -1.
However, Extra Damage and Defense will not be less than 0,
and the Buckler and Round Shield will not be available. Since
the Buckler and Round Shield are not available, they must be
replaced with other equipment (if PCs bought them or sample
characters had them), or money must be increased as if they
had not been obtained immediately.
PCs live in [42: Cul-De-Sac Tenement House]. Determine
the Block of [42: Cul-De-Sac Tenement House] and fill it in
on the map.
Many of the city's residents do not venture outside their own
neighborhoods in order to avoid encounters with barbarous.

3. CREATE A MAP OF CITY OF MIST
In order to capture the City Of Mist, PCsneed to know the
layout of the buildings and streets inside the City Of Mist,
infiltrate the City Of Mist, create a map of the city and bring it
back home.
To complete the city map, PCs must fill in sections on all
36 blank blocks on the map and earn at least one star on half
of the blocks (18). When PCs get a ★ on a Block, record it by
putting a “★” mark on the corresponding Block on the map.
It is not necessary to earn a ★ from fixed sections that have
already been marked on the map.
First, PCs need to meet a “Shepherd,” Don Bucado, who
organizes the gladiator fights in the Arena of the City Of Mist.
Don Bucado lives in [24: Gladiators' Quarters] with his own
gladiators. First, PCs need to go to [24:Gladiators' Quarters].
No Keeper
Note that the PCs have not yet acquired a keeper or Base.
They are considered to be vagabonds.

>Go to Gladiators' Quarters
PCs must go to [24:Gladiators' Quarters], where Don
Bucado lives. Refer to the fixed mission “Meet Don Bucado”
(see p. 96) in the mission list to proceed with the game.
Therefore, PCs are not familiar with other blocks and do not
know what kinds of places there are in the city.
1) Barbarous Attack +★
As soon as the game begins, they are attacked by the
barbarous. The barbarous will find the PCs and attack them.
Barbarous must be determined by the “Barbarous Encounter
Table” (see p. 122), and then the combat will begin.
If the PCs are defeated in battle, they are captured by the
barbarous. However, those PCs who have worked hard on
their physical training will be sold as slaves on the slave
market. If the PCs have the misfortune to die, they will be
taken in by “Grave Robber” Mugido as experimental subjects
and resurrected through Magic Transformation. See Magic
Transformation Table (see p. 128). In any case, the player is
eventually sold as a slave, so refer to [Introduction 1: Captivity
(see p. 19)] to proceed with the game. In a party's case,
surviving and dead PCs are sold together and treated as if they
were bought by one master.
If all PCs were killed, Miranda would ask a conjurer she
knows to revive them. Apply situation 5 from the Defeat
Table (see p. 110) and proceed with the game. In this case,
Miranda automatically becomes the Keeper.
2) Miranda's Story
As the PCs fight off the barbarous, an older woman calls out
to them. Her name is Miranda. She is the elder of the
tenement and is called “the Mother of Vagabonds” and is
adored by many vagabonds.
Miranda thanks them, “You saved these kids from being
taken away. Thank you.” The children of the tenement house
are by her side, and they smile innocently at the PCs, saying,
“Thank you.” Miranda sees the weapons and armor the PCs
are wearing and says, “You seem to have a lot on your mind,
dressed like that,” and invites them to her house for a cup of
tea and a chat.
At Miranda's house, the PCs tell her that they want to escape
the City Of Mist. Miranda nods, “I see. You might be able to
escape from this city. However, no matter how much fighting
strength you acquire, the enemy is stronger and the walls
closing the city are higher. Without help, you would be killed
by barbarous for trying to escape.” So, Miranda tells the PCs
about NPCs who might be able to help them.
To determine who will tell them about, roll 1d and refer to
the “Table of People Miranda will Introduce PCs to.”
Miranda Becomes Keeper
Thereafter, [42:Cul-De-Sac Tenement House] becomes the
Base.
Miranda is not barbarous or honorary barbarous, so she
does not wear a Slave's Collar on PCs. Note that the PCs are
still vagabonds.
Table of People Miranda will Introduce PCs to
1–2 Go to “1. Edgar of Wind Brigade”
3–4 Go to “2. Marilyn, the “Headhunter”“
5–6 Go to “3. Ursula of the Trees”
1. EDGAR OF WIND BRIGADE
Miranda says that Edgar would be willing to help. Edgar is a
native of this tenement, someone the PCs know well, and
about 10 years ago, he left the tenement saying, “I'm going to
drive the barbarous out of town!” PCs did not know what
happened after that, but according to Miranda, he has become
a member of “Wind Brigade,” an organization that opposes
the barbarous. “Wind Brigade” might know how to escape
from the city. If they find Edgar, they should be able to touch
with “Wind Brigade.”
But, unluckily, Edgar has been captured by the barbarous
and will soon be executed in [56: Bloodstained Walls]. If PCs
want Edgar to cooperate, they must rescue him.
According to Miranda, from morning to evening [56:
Bloodstained Walls] are full of barbarous watching the
execution. This makes it difficult to rescue Edgar. However,
the number of barbarous watching the execution will decrease
until night to dawn. Since the execution is meant to serve as
an example, it is not held at night when the humanoids cannot
be made to watch the cruel punishment.
If PCs want to rescue Edgar, they need to head to [56:
Bloodstained Walls].

2. MARILYN, THE “HEADHUNTER”
Miranda says that Marilyn might be able to help. Marilyn is
a native of this tenement, and the PCs know her well. 5 years
ago, her sister was killed by a barbarous manhunt, which
prompted her to join an organization against the barbarous,
and she is now an assassin, known as a “Headhunter.” Marilyn
can help PCs find a way out of the city with the information
her organization has. However, the whereabouts of Marilyn
are unknown. She has only been seen occasionally in the
vicinity of [13:Drug Den] and [23:Prostitution Street].
If PCs want to meet Marilyn, they need to go to [13: Drug

3. URSULA OF THE TREES
Miranda says that Ursula of the Trees might be able to help
the PCs. She runs a clinic where she treats vagabonds and
slaves for free.
With her, PCs can gather information from people who
come for treatment. Perhaps some of them may know how to
escape the city.
However, Miranda does not know the location of Ursula's

FOUNTAIN SQUARE
A narrow alleyway led to an open steel gate awaiting you.
Beyond the gate, a square surrounded by buildings can be
seen. In the center of the square is a fountain with many
vagabonds and slaves drawing water. At the fountain, you can
see a statue of some kind.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>To check out the square and fountain, go to “1. Square”.
>If PCs want to hear from someone, go to “2. Talk to the

1. SQUARE
Fountain Square is surrounded by windowless buildings.
The buildings are lined up in a row with no space between
them, and the only entrances from the square are a gate
leading to a narrow alley and a door on the building on the
other side of the gate. At the fountain stands a statue of a
woman holding a book, but her head has been destroyed, so
it is hard to tell who she is. On the pedestal is a mark with a
name engraved on it, but it has been scraped off.
The water from the spring is clean and suitable for
drinking; clean water is rare in the City Of Mist, and many
vagabonds and slaves come here to fetch water.
2. TALK TO THE PERSON FETCHING
WATER +★
If PCs want to listen to what they have to say, they need to
make a check with “Adventurer Level + Intelligence
Modifier” (Target Number A). If they succeed, they will see
that the people fetching water look frightened and are in a
hurry to leave.
If the PCs approach people who are fetching water, they
look annoyed, ignore them, and try to walk away.
If PCs offer to pay, a man will express interest and ask for
5 or more gamels of gold or an item. In the case of items, the
base price is used.
The man only answers the questions he is asked. He
knows only the following matters. To all other questions, he
answers, “I don't know.”
24
“The female statue is the “Quick-Witted” Selansier, one
of the Four Founders. The Four Founders were the great
founders who built this city in the past.”
“The water from the spring is clean and suitable for
drinking.”
“Behind the only door is a barbarous group, occasionally
led by Boggart, Mo Ruge, the “Strangler,” who hunts the
people who draw water from the spring. When a manhunt
takes place, the gates are closed.
3. BARBAROUS MANHUNTERS +★
If the PCs try to leave the plaza or do not leave for any
length of time, this event will occur.
Suddenly, the sound of drums begins to beat, and people
begin to panic and try to escape. However, the gate is closed,
blocking their way. If PCs want to escape from the square, they
need to make a check with “Adventurer level + Agility
modifier” (Target Number B). If they succeed, they can
escape from the square. If there are multiple PCs, all
members must succeed to escape.
If they escape from the square, the GM should warn them
that they will not be able to see the square from outside the
closed gate and will not be able to attack.
After the gate is completely closed, about 20 people
remain in the square, including the PCs, who have failed to
escape. The only door in the square opens, and Mo Ruge, the
“Strangler” (Boggart (CR I, p. 444)), appears with his
barbarous men. The Mo Ruge has the latecomers draw straws
and kill those who draw the “right” straws; the PCs must also
draw straws. Roll 1d, and if the result is “1 or 2”, they draw the
“right” straw and will be executed (you can roll once for the
party or each member, up to the GM).
If they do not resist, both the people who drew the “right”
straws and the PCs are killed and carried into the building
through the door from which the Mo Ruge and others came
out. Then the gates open, and people come to fetch water as
if nothing had happened. They are relieved that everything
will be okay for a while.
If PCs are fighting Mo Ruge, determine the subordinates
under his command by using the “Barbarous Encounter
Table” (see p. 122) and then fight.
If the Mo Ruge is defeated, the gate will not open. This is
because the gate has been blocked by some kind of device.
To exit the plaza, PCs must enter the building through the
door from which Mo Ruge and his men came out, remove the
Block on the gate, or go through the building.
Once Mo Ruge is defeated, this event will not occur again.
If the player loses to Mo Ruge, situation 7 in the Defeat
Table (see p. 110) shall apply, and the game shall proceed.
4. INSIDE THE BUILDING
The building is filled with the smell of blood, and there
are rooms where people are dismantled. A lever seems to be
a device to open and close the gate, which is currently down.
When this lever is raised, the gate opens.
Immediately after Mo Ruge is defeated, there is no
barbarous here. However, after a day or more has passed,
there will be a new barbarous. The barbarous encounter table
should be used to determine the barbarous. After exiting the
building, PCs can escape from [11: Fountain Square].
 EXECUTION SITE
It is a large plaza built at the intersection of four streets. In
the center of the square, a 10-meter-high tower has been built,
and a bridge crosses over the tower from one of the buildings
overlooking the square. Many barbarous and slaves crowd
around the tower.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>To see what's going on, go to “2. Tohotel's Execution”.
1. EXECUTION SITE
This square is the place where the public executions of
those who rebelled against the barbarous. The tower was built
as the execution platform for this purpose. There are other
places for executions at [56: Bloodstained Walls], but this
execution platform is for making an example of the more
serious criminals. When the sound of a gong rings out,
someone is going to be killed here in a gruesome manner.
Crowds gather to watch.
2. TOHOTEL'S EXECUTION +★
The event occurs immediately after the PCs enter the
square at [12: Execution Site].
Suddenly, the sound of gongs echoes. The crowd erupts
into a roar and a cheer, and all the gazes are focused on the
bridge from the building to the tower. Soon, three barbarous
begin to cross the bridge, accompanied by an elderly human
man. On the tower, one barbarous makes a verbal statement
in barbaric, then repeats the same statement in trade
common. This is to be understood by the vagabonds and
slaves, as it is meant as an example. According to the contents,
the man's name is Tohotel, the sailor, and he is the leader of
the Wind Brigade, one of the resistance organizations that
opposes the barbarous. After the speech, the barbarous is told
that the Wind Brigade has been defeated. After his speech,
the barbarous raises a vicious execution device, resembling a
sickle, to rip open the belly and gut the victim. The crowd
shouts, “Kill! Kill!”.
After a moment of instant silence, a circle of voices is
heard, and armed humans, elves, and dwarves emerge from
their surroundings to slash at the barbarous. A magic spark
strikes down the barbarous on the tower. Someone shouts,
“The Wind Brigade is attacking!”.
If the PCs are not wearing the Slave's Collar, they will be
mistaken for a Wind Brigade and attacked. If they are wearing
a Slave's Collar, they can either run away and not participate
in the battle or actively participate in the battle. Of course, they
may also side with the barbarous and fight the Wind Brigade.
1) PCs Attack Barbarous
The barbarous should be determined by the “Barbarous
Encounter Table” (see p. 122), and then the combat is
conducted. In this case, one of the barbarous characters
should be treated as a boss.
“Wind Brigade” rescues Tohotel and retreats after 6
rounds. At this time, someone in the Wind Brigade sees the
PCs fighting with the barbarous. They will give PCs a bonus
when they try to get in touch with Wind Brigade on the [41:
Bandit's Path].
2) PCs Attack Wind Brigade
Wind Brigade crew should be determined by the
“Humanoids Encounter Table” (see p. 125) and combat. In
this case, one character among the humanoids shall be treated
as a boss. The priest is assumed to be a believer of Lu Lode.
If the PC defeat all the enemies involved in the battle
within 6 rounds, the “Wind Brigade” fails to rescue Tohotel
and is defeated. Tohotel is executed, and Seira, the Snow
Wind, is henceforth the leader of the Wind Brigade.
PCs who cooperate in defeating the rebels will be
rewarded 1,000 gamels per person by the “Golden General”
Puteute. In addition, if the PCs are not already slaves, Puteute
will invite them to become his slaves. If the PCs accept this
offer, Puteute will place a “Slave's Collar” on them. Puteute
becomes the Keeper, and [64: Temple of Dalkhrem]
becomes the Base. Read [64: Temple of Dalkhrem] and
understand the role of Puteute's slave before proceeding with
the game. Determine the Block for [64: Temple of
Dalkhrem] and fill it in on the map.
In addition, someone from the Wind Brigade witnesses
the PCs defeating their friends. Thereafter, the PCs will not
be able to receive assistance from the Wind Brigade. Also, if
the PCs enter [41: Bandit's Path], their faces are known, and
they will be attacked without question. The enemy must be
determined by the “Humanoids Encounter Table.” In this
case, one of the humanoid characters is treated as a boss. The
enemy priest is assumed to be a believer of Lu Lode. In the
second and subsequent battles, the number of enemies is
doubled or tripled, up to five times, each time, because their
friends rush to the scene after hearing a commotion.
3) If Tohotel is Rescued
If Tohotel is rescued or executed, Tohotel's Execution
event will not occur thereafter.
25
 DRUG DEN
The dimly lit alley is filled with a strange smell that makes
one's nose curl, and people who appear to be vagabonds or
slaves are sitting or lying on the ground. People are staring into
the void, staring blankly, or muttering nonsense. At the end of
the alley, men are beating each while screaming.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to talk to someone, go to “1. Talk to Someone
in the Alley”.
>To see what's going on, go to “2. Redcaps Towing Carts”.
>If PCs go to Drug Den, go to “3. House of Dreams”.
1. TALK TO SOMEONE IN THE ALLEY
If PCs talk to people sitting or lying down, they will not
respond. If one speaks to the men who are beating each other
up, they attack PCs. Their eyes are bloodshot, and their
mouths are foaming. They are clearly insane, and persuasion
is not going to work. Decide on the men using the
“Humanoids Encounter Table” (see p. 125), and combat will
begin.
If PCs want to examine people in the alley, they can make
a Herbology check (Target Number A). If successful, they will
know that they are using some kind of drug. However, since
drugs are not known among humanoids, PCs do not know the
details.
Immediately after this, the “2. Redcaps Towing Carts”
event will occur.
2. REDCAPS TOWING CARTS +★
There is a rattling sound, and three Redcaps (CR I, p. 442)
with tow carts come from the alley's end. The Redcaps do not
care about the PCs but pick out two or three people lying on
the ground at random, pile them on the wagon, and carry
them away.
If PCs talk to Redcap, he will tell them that he sells “happy
dreaming pills” at the “House of Dreams” just down the road.
The people here use medicine to enter the dream world.
26
However, sometimes people cannot come back from the
dream world and get stuck on the side of the road. So,
apparently, this is how they retrieve the people. If PCs ask
Redcap, he will take them to the House of Dreams.
If PCs want to follow Redcap, they need to make a Follow
check (Target Number A). However, if they fail and they
notice PCs, they will not punish them. Eventually, Redcap will
enter a building. That building is the “House of Dreams.”
Once PCs have encountered Redcaps towing carts, this
event will not occur on subsequent visits to this location.
3. HOUSE OF DREAMS
The building is five stories high, with a wooden door at the
front, fitted with a sign that reads “House of Dreams.” This
door is neither locked nor trapped. If PCs knock on the door,
they will hear a voice saying in barbaric, “Please come in.”
If PCs want to open the door, go to “1) Dream Medicine
Store”.
1) Dream Medicine Store
The wooden door facing the alley opens into a small
room.
The room has a counter with two redcaps behind it. There
are stairs and a door by the counter.
If PCs speak to Counter's Redcap, they can answer
questions with:
“The House of Dreams is run by Mr. Berzebarii, the
Dreamer.”
“The drugs sold here are called dream drugs. There are
four types of dream drugs.”
“In order to sell Dream Drugs, you need a Dream Drug
Sales Authorization issued by the “Green General,” and Mr.
Berzebarii has it.”
“Dream drugs are imported from the far corners of the
barbarous territory and are distributed by the “Green
General” to those with Dream Drug Sales Authorization.”
“In order to sell Dream Drugs, you need Dream Drug
Sales Authorization, so you cannot resell it.”
“I recommend Laris' Dream Drug in combination with
other dream drugs for longer-lasting happy dreams.”
“At the top of the stairs are free accommodations only to
those who have purchased the Laris Dream Drug.”
“Behind the door is the Berzebarii room and the dream
drug vaults, which are off limits to outsiders.”
For the price of the dream drug, refer to the “Dream
Drugs Price List.” However, Redcaps do not tell the truth,
saying that the effect of the dream drug is to “give happy
dreams.” For the real effects of dream drugs, see “List of
Effects of Dream Drugs” (see the next page).
Note that the dream drug is a liquid in a bottle and is
handled as a potion.
Dream Drugs Price List
Dalkhrem Dream Drug (1 dose) 100 gamels
Bragzabas Dream Drug (1 dose) 50 gamels
Metissier Dream Drug (1 dose) 150 gamels
Laris Dream Drug (1 dose) 25 gamels
 L IST OF E FFECTS OF DREAM DRUGS
One Dream Drug Point is accumulated for each use of a
dream drug, even if it is a different type of dream drug.
If the character accumulates a total of 5 or more Dream
Drug Points, the user becomes addicted. When addicted, the
user suffers 4 disease magic damage per tb when not using a
dream drug in that tb. In addition, the user suffers a -1 penalty
to all Skill Checks, including Fortitude and Willpower, due to
the withdrawal symptoms.
When addicted, during sleep, the character has a dream
about the god of the last dream drug used. The dreamer needs
to make a Willpower check (Target Number 16). If the
dreamer fails, the Dream Drug Point is increased by 1 point.
If the Dream Drug Point reaches 10 or more points, the
addicted character gains 1 level of the priest class of
Dalkhrem, Bragzabas, Metissier, or Laris. If the addict has the
Priest class of the deity of the first sword, that class will no
longer be available instead. However, if the character recovers
from the addiction, they can use the class again.
The addition should be treated as a disease, and Fortitude
(Target Number 16) should be made at the beginning of the
next day's “morning” after each day of non-use. If successful,
the Dream Drug Points are reduced by -2 points. When the
number of Dream Drug Points falls to 0, the character
recovers from addiction. When they recovers from addiction,
the Priest class gained by the dream drug will be lost.
DALKHREM DREAM DRUG (1 DOSE) 100 GAMELS
When used, it makes the user feel extremely belligerent,
believing that they are stronger than anyone else. The physical
damage he inflicts is increased by +4 points, but they suffer a
-4 penalty for Evasion. In combat, they need to make a
Willpower check (Target Number 13) at the beginning of
each of their turns, and if they fail, they make a melee attack
against a random target, regardless of friend or foe. This effect
lasts for 3tb.
If the effect is lost, HP is reduced by 20 points. In addition,
the user needs to make a Fortitude check (Target Number
13), and if it fails, it will fall unconscious (8 hours of rest or
[Awake] spell to heal this).
If the effect is lost, the maximum HP is restored and the
current value is reduced by 50 points. In addition, the user
needs to make a Fortitude check (Target Number 13), and if
it fails, it will fall unconscious (8 hours of rest or [Awake] spell
to heal this).
L ARIS DREAM DRUG (1 DOSE) 25 GAMELS
When used, the world seems wonderful and the user feels
ecstatic. They will sit there and not be able to take any action
until the next tb. If they use any other dream drug at the same
time, its duration is doubled. Also, Willpower and Fortitude
will be penalized by -2 to the effect of the potion.
When the effect is lost, HP is reduced by 20 points. This
effect overlaps with the HP reduction effects of other dream
drugs. . In addition, the user needs to make a Fortitude check
(Target Number 13), and if it fails, it will fall unconscious (8
hours of rest or [Awake] spell to heal this).
If PCs want to buy a dream drug, one redcap hears their
order. He takes the payment and disappears behind the door,
saying, “Wait for me”. Redcap then goes to get the dream
drugs, which are stored in “5) Berzebarii's Room”. After a
while, Redcap comes back and gives PCs the dream drug as
PCs ordered.
If the PCs try to go to the door, Redcap will try to stop
them. The same applies if they try to go up the stairs without
buying the Laris Dream Potion. If the PCs try to force the
door open or climb the stairs, Redcap will attack them.
If Redcap is defeated, no one will be able to prevent PCs
from opening the door or going up the stairs. However, once
Redcap is defeated and once outside the building, 3 x Boggart
(CR I, p. 444) will be placed instead as guards. One of them
should be treated as a boss.
Refer to “2) Corridor” for opening doors and “6)
Accommodations” for going upstairs.

B RAGZABAS DREAM DRUG (1 DOSE) 50 GAMELS

If the user fails the Willpower check (Target Number 13),
all herbs, potions, and food in the user's possession will rot,
rendering them useless. Similarly, all herbs, potions, and food
the user touches also become rotten and unusable. This effect
lasts for 3tb.
If the effect is lost, HP is reduced by 10 points. In addition,
the user needs to make a Fortitude check (Target Number
13), and if it fails, it will fall unconscious (8 hours of rest or
[Awake] spell to heal this).

M ETISSIER DREAM DRUG (1 DOSE) 150 GAMELS

When used, the user is no longer afraid to die and feels
capable of doing anything. HP's maximum and current value
is increased by 30 points; defensive actions such as escape,
magic that increases defense or resistance, and actions that
restore HP require a successful Willpower check to affect the
user (Target Number 13). However, [Cover] combat feat will
still work without a check. This effect lasts for 3tb.

27
2) Corridor
PCs need to open the door at the back of the counter of
the Dream Medicine Store to enter the corridor. There is a
door on each side, and a staircase leading up at the end of the
hallway. Both doors are unlocked and not trapped.
The staircase goes up from the second to the fifth floor
and contains hidden doors on each of the floors.
If PCs open the door on the left, go to “3) Meat Room”.
If they open the door on the right, go to “4) Servant’s Room”.
If they go up the stairs, go to “6) Accommodation”.
3) Meat Room
In the room, two redcaps are taking apart a human on a
table-like platform. There is a cart with humans in it. In
addition, there is a door at the end of the room.
When the PCs enter the room, the Redcaps will attack
them.
If PCs are victorious, they can open a door further. Behind
the door is a meat storage area, where the meat is stored.
There is nothing of interest to the PCs.
6) Accommodations
Up the stairs is a room with beds lined up. There are no
walls, and people can be seen lying there as if they were dead.
The staircase continues to the top. If PCs continue up the
stairs, they will see that the “House of Dreams” multi-story
building: up to the fifth floor, all rooms have similar
accommodations.
If PCs want to explore the room, they must do a Search
check (Target Number B). If they succeed, they will notice a
hidden door in the back wall. The hidden door is neither
locked nor trapped.
Beyond the hidden door is a staircase leading up and
down. The stairs connect the 2) Corridor on the first floor with
the hidden doors on the second through fifth floors.
Translator Note: You can probably guess with hidden
doors and meat room the true purpose of the
accommodations in the House of Dreams. As a GM you can
use this to create side stories and missions.

4) Servants’ Room
In the room where barbarous under Berzebarii live. This
room's barbarity should be determined using the Barbarous
Encounter Table (see p. 122). In addition, there is a door at
the back of the room.
When the PCs enter the room, the barbarous attack them.
If they engage in combat with the barbarous, the back door
opens at the start of the second round, and Berzebarii (Lesser
Ogre (CR I, p. 446)) appears and joins the battle.
If PCs win against the barbarous, they can search “5)
Berzebarii's Room” next to this room. There is nothing in this
room.

5) Berzebarii's Room +★(*)

This is the room of Berzebarii, the Dreamer. No one will
hereafter combat in the “4) Servants’ Room”.
The room contains an office desk, a bed, and shelves lined
with bottles.
If PCs examine an office desk, they will find a “Dream
Drug Sales Authorization” in a drawer. If they are looking at
the bed, they will find a wooden box under the bed. The crate
is neither locked nor trapped. When they open the crate, they
will find one of the treasures from the Treasure Decision
Table: $$ (see p. 126) inside.
If PCs examine the shelves, they will notice that all the
bottles lined up are dream drugs. The bottles are labeled with
the name of the drug and the quantity. According to the labels,
there are 50 doses of each of all four types of dream drugs in
storage.
If the PCs take the “Dream Drug Sales Authorization”
when they defeat Berzebarii, the person who received it
becomes the next master of the House of Dreams. If the PCs
do not take the “Dream Drug Sales Authorization,” then
another Lesser Ogre takes over.
(*): The PCs will gain one ★ for each Lesser Ogre
defeated in this room. However, if five Lesser Ogres are
defeated, including Berzebarii, the owner of the House of
Dreams will be Drake Baron (CR II, p. 316), regardless of
who the PCs gave the “Dream Drug Sales Authorization” to.

28

RANCH
Along the tree-lined street, a high wall continues forever.
The innocent laughter of boys and girls echoes from the other
side of the wall. After a short walk, a large iron gate comes into
view. On the gatepost, there is a plaque with the words
barbaric “Offering Ranch” written on it.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>For a peek inside the Ranch, go to “1. Ranch View”.
>If PCs want to break into the Ranch, go to “3. Breaking into
the Ranch”.
1. RANCH VIEW
The inside of the ranch can be seen from the gate and
from the top of the row of trees.
Inside the walls is a vast garden. The garden is filled with
colorful flowers, and in the middle of the garden is a white
stone building. Beside the building is a swimming pool where,
in the daytime, naked boys and girls are happily playing. If it
is nighttime, the building is illuminated by glimmering magical
lights all around, and boys and girls in shining white clothes
can be seen chatting gracefully in the windows.
Looking into the Ranch, the event “2. Ranch Girl Heine”
occurs.
2. RANCH GIRL HEINE +★
The PCs suddenly asked in barbaric, “Hey, who are
you?”. A crimson-haired girl stands in the garden, looking at
the PCs. She has innocent, clear eyes. She is wearing a “Slave's
Collar” that identifies her as a ranch girl.
The girl, named Heine, is one of the humanoids living at
the ranch. She was enjoying a walk in the garden. She says that
this is the first time she has met someone outside the walls and
invites PCs to talk to her.
PCs learn the following by talking to Heine.
“This is the Ranch where the boys and girls dedicated to
Yahakkazesh and other upper barbarous are kept.”
“There are about 100 boys and girls here. They are
humanoids, such as humans, elves, and dwarves, ranging in
age from newborn babies to around 20 years old.”
“Boys and girls are raised taught and believe that the
greatest happiness is to be an upper barbarous offering.”
“The vast ranch compound is guarded at all times by foot
soldiers and mythical beasts as guardians.”
Heine says that she is constantly striving to improve herself
in order to “become a beautiful jade statue in favor of the
“Green General” and be displayed forever.” However, since
only one or two of the 100 or so boys and girls at the Ranch
are given the honor of becoming a jade statue each year, she
confides that she would be satisfied if she were one of the 20
chosen to be the main dish at the annual carnival.
When PCs tell Heine that barbarous are evil or that being
devoted to barbarous is not true happiness, she does not
believe them. She has been taught this since she was a child.
However, she does show interest in the world outside the
walls. If the PCs promise to take her out, Heine will follow the
PCs' instructions. However, Heine suggests that she wants to
get out of the Ranch only between “night” and “dawn” and
return before “morning.” This is because her absence will be
noticed if she exits during the daytime.
If PCs have already met Heine, this event will not occur.
However, Heine loves to stroll through the gardens, so she is
easy to spot as long as the PCs come to the Ranch. PCs can
talk to her through the gate if they ask her.
3. BREAKING INTO THE RANCH +★
The height of the fence surrounding the property is about
5 meters. The fence is made of stone, with a smooth surface,
and there are no uneven surfaces to provide clues or footholds
for climbing. There is a tree next to the fence that is easy to
climb. Climbing this tree allows PCs to look over the fence.
To climb the tree, they need to do a Climb check (Target
Number 10), there are no modifications to the success value.
Some of the trees have large branches that extend close to the
fence. It is possible to jump from the top of these trees onto
the property. If they jump down, they must take physical
damage of 15 points from 5-meter fall damage. At this time,
they can perform a Tumble check. If the success value of the
Tumble check is 15 or more, the PC lands safely.
When entering a ranch, PCs may encounter a patrolling
barbarous or mythical beast. What PCs encounter should be
determined with the Ranch Encounter Chart.
Ranch Encounter Chart
Both barbarous and mythical beasts are encountered.
Barbarous and Mythical beasts must be determined
1
by using the Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122)
and Mythical Beasts Encounter Table (see p. 124).
Encounter with a mythical beast. Determine the
2 mythical beast with the Mythical Beasts Encounter
Table (see p. 124).
Encounter with a barbarous guard. Determine the
3 – 4 barbarous with the Barbarous Encounter Table (see
p. 122)
5 – 6 Luckily, the patrols were not encountered.
29
 When encountering an enemy, PCs need to make a Hide
check (Target Number C). If they fail, a patrolling barbarous
or mythical beast will find them and engage them in battle.
If PCs break into the Ranch and the patrolling barbarous
do not find them, or if they defeat the barbarous or mythical
beast and have not yet met Heine, they will encounter her. See
“2. Ranch Girl Heine”.
The Key to the Ranch's Slave's Collar, which is used to
remove the Slave's Collar of Heine and the other ranch boys
and girls, is located in a white stone building. To enter the
building and find the key, PCs need to make a Search check
(Target Number 13). If they succeed, they will find the key. In
this case, PCs can do it as many times as they want until they
succeed. However, each time PCs do this, they may encounter
a patrolling barbarous or mythical beast, so be sure to roll on
the Ranch Encounter Chart.
Once PCs get into a fight with the enemy when searching,
other patrols will gather to hear the commotion. If PCs escape
immediately, they can escape out of the ranch through the
route they took. If they continue their search, they will always
encounter an enemy after each Search check. If PCs get a “5
or 6” on the Ranch Encounter Chart, ignore it and roll again.
Also, since guards are on the lookout, the success value of the
Hide check will gain a -2 penalty.
Once a patrol finds PCs, the number of patrols triples
from the next tb. Therefore, the number of enemies that
appear when a patrol finds them will also be tripled.
4. GET HEINE OUT OF HERE (+★(*))
If PCs are taking Heine out of the Ranch, there is a
possibility that a patrolling barbarous or mythical beast will
find her. Refer to the description of “3. Breaking into the
Ranch” for how to handle this. The PCs will only get ★ if they
are able to take Heine out.
(*): For each time Heine is taken out of the Ranch, the
PCs will receive ★. However, if Heine is returned to the
Ranch after 5 escapes, the PCs will not be able to contact her
at all. She has become an offering to the upper barbarous.
1) Heine's Reaction
When taken out of the Ranch, Heine is surprised at the
difference between the world inside and outside the walls.
However, she takes for granted the barbarous rule of the
humanoid, so when she sees the barbarous mistreating
people, she says, “It's his fault for not listening.” Being eaten
by the barbarous is not misery for her but rather an honor.
When PCs explain to Heine that barbarous are evil, she says,
“Why? We are here to serve them, right? There is no way that
barbarous are evil.” If PCs speak ill of barbarous too
persistently, Heine will say, “Enough, please. I'm going to get
angry.” If we continue to try to persuade her, she gets offended
and says, “I'm going home.”
2) If PCs Offend Heine
Unless PCs forcefully catch her, she will leave. Since she
is wearing the Slave's Collar, which indicates that she is a ranch
boy or girl, she will not be attacked by a barbarous. If Heine
leaves, she will enter the Ranch through the front door, and
the barbarous will automatically know that she has left the
Ranch. The number of patrols will be tripled, referring to the
process described in the section “4) If Heine Does not
30
Return” after it is discovered that she has escaped from the
ranch. After that, Heine, who has escaped from the ranch, will
be killed.
If PCs force her to stay, Heine would scream and call for
help. She wears a “Slave's Collar,” indicating that she is a ranch
boy or girl, and ranch boys and girls are treated like slaves of
“Green General” Yahakkazesh. If there is a barbarous
around, they will try to help her. Determine the barbarous
using the Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122) and fight
them. If the barbarous are defeated, Heine exclaims, “What
a terrible thing to do!” and tries to run away. The barbarous
will hear the commotion and will gather, and if PCs do not
flee immediately, they will have to fight again. In this case, all
the barbarous are treated as bosses.
If PCs want to escape with Heine, they have to knock her
unconscious. If they cannot knock her unconscious, they will
have to leave her and flee or fight more battles. If they escape
without Heine, she will be brought back to the Ranch and
killed.
3) How to Persuade Heine
To persuade Heine, PCs must evoke her will to live rather
than explain that barbarous are evil. To do this, they need to
get Heine to find out what she wants to do. Heine is interested
in:
1. When PCs go to [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through the
Trees”] and show Heine how Ursula works, she says, “I want
to be someone who can help people in need like that.” If PCs
ask Ursula, she will train Heine to be a nurse.
2. When PCs took Heine to the library at [43: Bloody Castle],
she would say, “Wow! I want to read all of them”. If PCs ask
Judith, she will shelter Heine.
They can also give her a dream drug to make her addicted
so that she forgets to return to the ranch or ask Ariadne,
Tohotel, or other organizations that oppose the barbarous to
lock her up and force her to not return.
4) If Heine Does not Return
If Heine does not return by “morning,” it will be known to
the barbarous that Heine is gone. This will increase the
number of barbarous guarding the Ranch, and they will also
patrol the Ranch's perimeter. In this case, the number of
barbarous should be treated as three times the normal
number.
Furthermore, three days after taking Heine out, the magic
power of the Slave's Collar she is wearing is triggered to take
her life.
The GM should warn that the Heine will be killed by the
magic power of Slave's Collar if they shelter Heine and do not
return her to Ranch.
Heine's Slave's Collar can be removed with the Key to the
Ranch's Slave's Collar.
 SLAVE MARKET
There is a large stone building. You can see many
barbarous and iron cages with wheeled carriages going in and
out. Inside the cage, several people are locked up. They are
slaves who are about to be sold to the barbarous - this is a slave
market.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to enter the slave market, go to “3. Enter the
Slave Market”.
>If PCs are just passing by, go to “2. Request from a
Mysterious Man”.
1. SLAVE MARKET
In the slave market, slaves were always being bought and
sold. Most of the slaves bought and sold here are humanoids
captured outside the City Of Mist, and many of them have
recently been calling themselves adventurers. Occasionally,
“pretty women” are captured in the city for auction.
Only barbarous can enter the slave market, but if PCs are
wearing an Honorary Bracelet, they can enter without
difficulty. If they are wearing a slave's collar, they can pay a
bribe to the gatekeeper, who will let them in. Once inside,
some slaves will be accompanied by their barbarous masters,
so they will not be suspected if they blend in with them.
2. REQUEST FROM A MYSTERIOUS MAN
This event will occur immediately after the PCs arrive at
[15: Slave Market] only if they wear Slave's Collars.
A hooded man about 30 years old approaches the PCs
and says, “I'm sorry, but I have a favor to ask of you.” The
man, claiming to be Melchior of [41: Bandit's Path], says, “I
heard that my sister Moulin, who was captured by the
barbarous, is going to be auctioned off at the slave market
today.” Melchior cannot enter the slave market because he
does not have the Slave's Collar.
If the PCs accept the offer, Melchior gives them 4,000
gamels as a fund to bid for Moulin. After bidding for Moulin,
the PCs are allowed to keep the extra money for themselves
as a reward. Melchior says that the bidding price for Moulin
should be between 2,000 and 3,000 gamels.
Once Melchior has asked PCs to bid for Moulin, this
event will not occur thereafter, regardless of the outcome. If
PCs are already acquainted with Melchior, treat it as if he
found the PCs and approached them. Melchior would then
turn to the PCs and beg them to help him with Moulin.
3. ENTER THE SLAVE MARKET +★
If PCs are wearing the Honorary Bracelet, they may enter
the marketplace without difficulty. If they are not wearing an
Honorary Bracelet but a Slave’s Collar, the barbarous
gatekeeper will say, “Well, depending on your attitude, I
might let you in,” and demand a bribe. If they pay the
gatekeeper a bribe of 1d x 50 gamels, he will let them in.
Inside the marketplace, there are many civilians and
slaves. Chained humanoid men and women are brought out
on a slightly raised stage while slave traders offer sales pitches
to entice the buyers. Most of the slave traders were barbarous,
but occasionally there were humanoid slave traders.
1) Auction of Moulin
This event occurs only when Melchior requests to rescue
Moulin.
While watching the auction, a human girl named Moulin
was soon put up for bid. She is a pretty girl, and according to
the slave traders, she is the priestess of Lu Lode, the god of
travelers. If she is auctioned off, the final bidding price will be
2d x 300 gamel. If the PCs do not bid, Moulin will be
auctioned off to some barbarous. If the PCs wish to determine
whose slave she has become, roll 2d+5 to determine it in the
List of Well-known Monsters (see p. 20).
The PCs pay the slave market attendant a fee for the slave's
collar, and the Moulin and the Slave's Collar are handed over
to the PCs. The attendant, thinking that the PCs are slaves
who have been sent by their masters, says, “Please give them
my regards,” mentioning the PCs' masters' names. Slave's
Collar for Moulin also has the same name as the one worn by
the PCs. However, Moulin can be free of Slave's Collar at this
point unless the PCs do so.
Translator Note: For dramatic effect, GM better to do a
real auction with the highest bid being 2d x 300 gamels.
2) Combat in the Market +★(*)
If PCs cause a disturbance in the slave market, all of the
surrounding barbarous become enemies. Determine the
barbarous using the Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122)
and fight them. However, their number should be tripled. If
the battle is won, the PCs may choose to “escape,” “help the
slave on the stage,” or “proceed to the back of the market.”
If PCs want to escape, they can run straight out of the
market.
If PCs help a slave on the stage, they must win the battle
again in order to get out of the market. At this time, the saved
slave is treated as a civilian (see p. 5) and can become a target
of the barbarous attack. Note that at this stage, there shall be
five slaves on the stage.
If PCs go deeper into the market, they will come to a place
where 10 cages are tucked away. Inside the cages are many
slaves. Each cage contains five slaves, and each cage is locked.
To unlock the cages, PCs must succeed in the Disable Device
31
check (Target Number B). Each time they perform a Disable
Device check, a battle ensues. Also, to escape from the
market, PCs must win two battles, one to move into the
marketplace and one to move out of the marketplace. Of
course, in this case, the rescued slaves also can become the
target of the barbarous attacks.
Translator Note: In the case of combat, slaves can hide at
the back of the battlefield. Depending on the combat system
used slaves can be placed at the end of the battlefield
(advanced or standard combat), or if you are using simplified
combat, slaves can be placed at the rearguard, which should
minimize the damage they will incur.
If a battle is fought in the marketplace, ★ is awarded for
each successful escape. In addition, an additional ★ will be
earned for every five slaves successfully taken out. However,
the number of ★ earned in “2) Combat in the Market” is
limited to 5 per day. The slave that PCs bring out will be
working together with the PCs. They can then hide with
Ariadne from [23: Prostitution Street], Yamur from [32:
Yamur's Bar], Ursula from [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through
the Trees”], in Temple of Lu Lode from [41: Bandit's Path],
Miranda at [42: Cul-de-sac Tenement House], or Sandrine
Capet at [61: Lighted House].
(*): Each time a slave is rescued from the slave market, the
PCs will gain a ★. However, if the PCs rescue more than 25
slaves in total, the security of the slave market will be increased
the next day. Henceforth, when determining within the
Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122), treat the average
level as being 1 higher. If PCs rescue more than 50 slaves, Zu
Gri, “Lord of Greed” (Ogre (CR II, p. 303)), will be
dispatched as the head of security. If Zu Gri is defeated, PCs
will automatically receive a Zabar Merchant Association
Membership Card (containing 10,000 Zabar points) as loot.
When Zu Gri is defeated, the unnamed Hercules (see p. 132)
will be dispatched the next time PCs will try to save slaves.
organization that resists the barbarous rule and will not get
away with it if it is exposed.
2) If Moulin's Bid Fails
If the PCs failed to win the bid for Moulin, Melchior is
dismayed to hear about it. However, he says he has no choice
and tells them he will think of another way to get his sister
back. He then asks for the return of the funds he gave them.
At this point, he is willing to pay 500 gamel if they demand a
reward for risking their lives to get into the market.
3) Dishonest Adventurers
If the PCs refuse to return the money or hand over
Moulin, Melchior will lash out at them with vengeance.
However, Melchior is afraid of putting himself in danger by
making a scene, so he backs off, biting his lip, and leaves for
somewhere else. Melchior then reports back to his colleagues
in the “Wind Brigade”. The PCs are henceforth no longer
able to receive assistance from the Wind Brigade.
If the PCs enter the [41: Bandit's Path], they will be
attacked without question. The enemy should be be
determined with the Humanoids Encounter Table (see p.
125) and combat shall take place. In this case, one of the
humanoid characters should be treated as a boss. Also, the
enemy priest shall be assumed to be a believer in Lu Lode. In
the second and subsequent battles, the number of enemies
doubles or triples each time, and reaches five times in the
largest battle, as Wind Brigade rushes in after hearing a
commotion.
If PCs keeper is Seira or Tohotel, they will not be attacked
out of the blue: they will be asked directly by them to return
Moulin or their money. If not, the PCs will be captured by
them and killed as traitors. If they return, they will be told,
“We will tolerate you this time, but next time we want you to
refrain from dishonest behavior. We are not barbarous.”

4. LEAVE THE SLAVE MARKET

When the PCs leave the [15: Slave Market], Melchior is
waiting for them with Moulin.

1) Deliver Moulin to Melchior +★

If the PCs have Moulin with them, Melchior is delighted
to see her safe and sound. And when the PCs hand Moulin
over to him, he thanks them profusely and tells them that if
they ever come to [41:Bandit's Path ], they are welcome to
stop by his house. From then on, if PCs visit [41: Bandit's
Path], they will be able to go to “2. Melchior's House”.
If the PCs complain that they have spent a lot of money
on bribes to enter the slave market or to pay for Moulin and
that they are underpaid, Melchior apologizes and says he is
sorry. However, he tells them that he cannot pay them now
because he does not have the money with him and promises
to pay them back if they ask for his house in [41: Bandit's
Path]. Moulin will point out the error if the PCs report a
higher bid than was paid. If the PCs accept the mistake, it can
be dismissed as “just a misunderstanding. If not, Melchior will
accept the PCs' price up to 10,000 gamel but will lose
confidence in the PCs.
In any case, Melchior and Moulin walk away, thanking the
PCs. In fact, they are part of the “Wind Brigade,” an

BRIDGE OVER THE DRAINAGE CHANNEL
A stone bridge crosses a river that reeks of filth. At the foot
of the bridge, there are stairs leading down to the bottom of
the bridge. Looking into the river, you can not see the bottom
of the river because of the black, dirty water, but it looks deep.
The current is so steep that it will be difficult to swim across.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to cross a bridge, go to “2. Crossing a Bridge”.
>If PCs want to go down the stairs, go to “3. Ferryman”.
If the PCs are going to a specific destination, for example,
for a mission, they must cross this river in order to reach their
destination. However, they can still turn back to the original
Block and bypass this Block in order to travel on to their
destination. If the GM is present, they should inform the PCs
of this.
1. BRIDGES AND FERRYMEN
On this bridge, the masters are allowed to kill
unaccompanied slaves. Therefore, if the slaves try to pass
through alone, they will be tormented by the barbarous. And,
to add insult to injury, there is a sign in the middle of the
bridge to indicate that this is the case. Under the bridge, there
are ferrymen for those who cannot cross. The fee is 3 gamel
per person.
2. CROSSING A BRIDGE +★
If PCs try to cross the bridge, they need to make a Danger
Sense check (Target Number B). If successful, they will notice
the barbarous smiling wickedly and looking at the PCs, and
one of the slaves accompanied by the barbarous will shake his
head with a pensive look.
If the PCs still try to cross the bridge, they will notice a sign
in the middle of the bridge that reads, “On this bridge, you
may not complain if your master kills an unaccompanied
slave. -- “Green General.” When the PCs reach the sign, they
are surrounded by barbarous. Determine the barbarous by
using the Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122). They will
attack PCs. In this case, their number should be doubled.
3. FERRYMAN
There is a ferry under the bridge, and a thin, old man acts
as a ferryman. The ferry fare is 3 gamels per person. If PC
take the ferryman's boat, they will hear a rumor on the way
across the river. According to the rumors, the ferryman is a
descendant of a family of gondola boatmen who used to ply
the waterways of the City Of Mist.
If the PCs ask the ferryman, “Do you know anything about
City Of Mist waterways?” the PCs will be asked to pay 30
gamel for the information. If the PCs pay 30 gamels, he will
give them “First Opening/Closing Code: 438”. However, he
does not know the meaning of the code.
The ship then arrives safely on the other side of the river.
4. CROSSING RIVER STEALTHY +★
PCs may swim across the river.
If swimming across, they need to make a Swim check
(Target Number 9). If successful, the swimmer swims safely to
the other side of the river. If unsuccessful, the swimmer
drowns, and 1 minute (6 rounds) elapses. The swimmer then
needs to make a Swim check (Target Number 9) again. If the
swimmer fails, they drown and another minute elapses. If the
Swim check is repeated and the total number of rounds of
drowning reaches the number of “vitality” rounds, the PCs will
faint. A PC who faints in the river will die unless rescued
immediately. If the PCs are alone when they faint from
drowning, they should immediately roll 1d and refer to the
Defeat Table (see p. 110).
If it is a party, other PCs can help. The PC trying to save a
fainted PC from drowning must make a Swim check (Target
Number 12). If successful, the PCs will reach the other side of
the river with the unconscious PC saved. If unsuccessful, both
PCs will begin to drown. However, the fainted PC does not
die yet because it is still holding the fainted PC. The swimmer
must succeed in the Swim check (Target Number 12) in order
to swim through the river with the fainted PC still in their
possession. To abandon the unconscious PC, the swimmer
need only succeed at a Swim check (Target Number 9). In any
case, a PC can only hold one fainted PC.
If the PCs swim across the river, regardless of the success
or failure of the Swim check, the PCs may become ill. They
need to make a Fortitude check (Target Number 13). On
failure, it becomes diseased. Thereafter, for every 1 tb that
elapses, the PC suffers a 3 disease magic damage. The PC who
has become diseased needs to make a Fortitude check (Target
Number 13) each “morning” and recover from the disease if
successful. The disease can also be cured by [Cure Disease]
(Target Number 13).

 DRY WELL
The well is located in the middle of a deserted back street
at a four-way intersection. Beside the well, an iron post that
used to support a fishing pole remains.
Looking into the well, one can see it is about 5 meters
deep. No water surface is visible at the bottom, and a pile of
junk has been dumped. It appears to be a dry well.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs are going down to the well, go to “1. Go Down to the
Well”.
1. GO DOWN THE WELL
To descend to the bottom of the well, PCs need to make
a Climb check (Target Number 10). At this time, there are no
modifications to the success value.
Translator Note: It is up to the GM what will happen on
the failed Climb check (fall damage, all PCs already down
below might take some damage, etc.).
If a rope is to be used, the best place to use it is on an iron
post by the well. Although the iron post has deteriorated, it is
still solid and does not wobble when the rope is tied and
pulled hard.
2. BOTTOM OF THE WELL +★
There is a myriad of debris thrown into the bottom of the
well. To search, one PC needs to make a Search check
(Target Number A). If they succeed, they will find a heavy
leather bag. The contents of the leather bag should be
determined by referring to the “Contents of Leather Bag”
table. Note that if PCs have already found a leather bag once,
they will not be able to find it again.
Contents of Leather Bag
1 Mere pebble
2 4 x Creeping Coin (CR II, p. 361)
3 2d x 50 gamel silver coins
4 2d x 1000 gamel silver coins

6
3 x Mako stones (3 pts. each).
Magisphere (medium)
Creeping Coins (CR II, p. 361) attack the moment the
leather bag is opened. When the leather bag is opened, PCs
need to make a Danger Sense check (Target Number 9).
Failure to do so results in a surprise attack from Creeping
Coins.
3. ENTRANCE TO BASEMENT
If the bottom of the well is checked and a leather bag is
found, a further Search check (Target Number B) can be
made. In the case of a party, only the PC that succeeded in
the previous Search check can perform this check.
If they succeed, they find a square slit in the bottom of the
well buried in junk. The cut is filled with water that is seeping
slightly from the wall surface. Perhaps the cut is a sag, and
there is a cavity beneath it. If PC were to examine the cut, they
would see that it is a lid and could be opened.
The lid is not locked but trapped. The trap should be
determined using the Trap Decision Table C (see p. 127).
When the lid is opened, there is a staircase leading to the
basement, and a door at the bottom of the staircase. This door
is neither locked nor trapped.
If PCs want to open the door, proceed to the event “4.
Madame Hedron's Room”.
4. MADAME HEDRON'S ROOM +★
The door opens into a neat little room. Here lives
Madame Hedron (Lizardman Tamer, see p. 132) with a
barbarous under her command, and when Madame Hedron
sees PCs, she will say in barbaric, “Well, well, well. This is
another feast. I'm sure our queen will be very pleased if we
offer them to her,” and attacks them with the barbarous under
her command.
Combat with Madame Hedron. The barbarous under his
command should be determined with the Barbarous
Encounter Table (see p. 122). In this case, the average level
of the party should be treated as 1 higher.
Hedron serves Ondine, the “Queen of Sewage,” who
resides in the lowest level of [Fixed Section 3: Jade Tower].
Hedron wants to capture the PCs and offer them to the
“Queen of Sewage.”
If PCs defeat Hedron, they get a ring in addition to the
normal loot. This is the Ring of Madame Hedron. Among the
living, only the bearer of this ring is not considered food by
the “Queen of Sewage.”
After the combat, if PCs want to search the room, they can
make a Search check (Target Number B). If they succeed,
they will receive three treasures from the Treasure Decision
Table: $$ (see p. 126). In addition, PCs will find Slave's
Collars equal to the number of party members and a key to
remove this collar. This is the Slave's Collar, which indicates
that they are the slaves of Ondine, the “Queen of Sewage.”
Madame Hedron was in charge of these Slave Collars.
 OPEN-AIR MARKET
The street is lined with shabby stores. Many barbarous and
slaves come and go.

>To take a look around the market, go to “1. Open-air
Market”.
>If PCs want to stop by a store, go to the respective store
section.
>If PCs are leaving the market, go to “7. Meet Someone”.
1. OPEN-AIR MARKET
The market was established when vagabonds began doing
business in vacant spaces. Therefore, many stores simply lay
out their goods on the side of the road with clothes spread out
on the ground. There are medicine shops, equipment shops,
item shops, gambling shops, and Bohr (see p. 139) sellers.
2. HARVEY, THE APOTHECARY
Harvey sells herbs and potions (up to the GM to limit
them).
Mucosol Grass is also sold as 100 gamels. For more
information on the effects of Mucosol Grass, see “About
Mucosol Grass.”
ABOUT M UCOSOL GRASS
Mucosol Grass can cure disease and is an herbal remedy.
Mucosol Grass provides a +1 bonus to Fortitude when curing
a disease. This effect is not cumulative by using more than one
Mucosol Grass.
3. NEUMANN, THE EQUIPMENT DEALER
Neumann sells all rank B equipment and ammunition.
However, all equipment prices are multiplied by 1.5 (rounded
up).
He also sells used equipment. Used equipment costs 80%
of the normal price, but has inferior performance. Used
weapons have a -1 to Extra Damage. Used armor has a -1 to
Defense. However, Defense cannot be less than 0 and used
Bucklers, and Round Shields are unavailable.
4. ITERA, THE ITEM TRADER (+★)
Itera sells items/accessories, repair tools, wizard’s items,
pets, and accessories. However, she does not sell magic items
besides Guardian Stone, Ability-Enhancing Rings, or Ability-
Enhancing Bracelets.
If PCs want to ask Itera, she will offer them a shiny red
stone and a shiny blue stone and say, “I'm not sure which one
is the more valuable stone. I'll give you the low-valued one for
your trouble.” PCs need to make an Appraise check (Target
Number B). If successful, they will know that the red stone is
a gem worth 30 gems and the blue stone is a Guardian Stone
(3 HP) worth 900 gems. In case of failure, the PCs must
choose one of them at random.
If PCs say that red stone is more valuable, Itera says, “You
are either blind or a liar. I can't help you.” However, as
promised, the blue stone will be given to PCs as a reward for
their time and effort.
If PCs say that blue stone is of higher value, then PCs gain
the trust of Itera.
If PCs gain Itera's trust, she will give PCs the code “First
Opening/Closing Code: 438,” as promised. This was given to
me by my grandfather, who was a ferryman. Since the
ferryman is a descendant of a family of gondola boatmen who
used to ply the waterways of the City Of Mist, Itera says that
the code must have something to do with the canals. However,
neither she nor her grandfather knows the meaning of the
code, nor do they know any other codes. Only if PCs can get
information from Itera will they receive ★.
5. MABEL, A GAMBLER
Mabel is a gambler who makes money by cheating. One
bet is 10 gamels; if PCs win, they get 20 gamels back.
Mabel spreads her Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery
out on the gambling table. If the PCs show her the
Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery, she smiles and says,
“Oh, you're in good company here.” Proceed to “3) Mabel's
Help.”
1) Cheating Bets (+★)
Mabel plays by Gambling on dice rolls. When gambling,
the PCs formally roll 2d to compare the dice, but on the first
two rolls, the PCs are always assumed to win. After the third
roll, Mabel says, “If I keep losing, I'm going to lose. Why don't
you double the bet?”. If the PCs accept this bet, they will lose.
The whole game is a cheat from the beginning, and Mabel can
manipulate her own rolls at will. Therefore, unless the PCs
see through the cheating, they will be at Mabel's mercy.
To detect cheating, PC can make a check (Target Number
B) with “Scout level + Intelligence modifier”. If it succeeds,
the cheating can be detected. However, just detecting the
cheating is not enough to win the game. It is necessary to cheat
back.
If PCs want to return a cheat, they can do so immediately
during the game when they have detected the cheat. To return
35
the cheat, they need to make a check (Target Number C) with
“Scout level +Intelligence modifier.” If successful, the PCs win
the game by cheating back. In this case, Mabel admits defeat
gracefully. She then says, “You have potential,” and gives them
a Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery. She says her friends
will help PCs out if they are in trouble. In fact, Mabel is a
member of the “Moonlit Wasps,” an organization that
opposes barbarous activities.
Only if PCs receive a Handkerchief with Wasp
Embroidery do they gain ★.
2) Confide in Mabel About the Situation (+★)
This event occurs when the PCs ask Mabel for help
because they are “looking for a way out of the city” or “looking
for someone to help them plan how to get the city back from
the barbarous” or “killing the well-known monster.”
When PCs honestly confide with Mabel, she says, “I see
what you mean,” and hands them a Handkerchief with Wasp
Embroidery. Then she says, “Go to Prostitution Street and
talk to someone with a handkerchief just like this. Show them
this handkerchief and ask them to meet the “Daughter of the
Moon.” Then you will be able to see her.” Mabel tells PCs
where [23: Prostitution Street ] is. Determine the block of [23:
Prostitution Street] and fill it in on the map.
If the PCs already have a Handkerchief with Wasp
Embroidery, she will not give them a new handkerchief.
PCs will only get ★ if they can get Mabel to tell them how
to meet the “Daughter of the Moon.”
3) Mabel's Help
If PCs are members of the “Moonlit Wasps” and ask for
Mabel's assistance, they may only receive the following
assistance once per campaign.
Help 1. 1,000 gamel.
Help 2. It gives PCs information about a specific location.
Mabel will tell PCs the Block where one of the sections
PCs specify is located. Determine the Block and fill it in on
the map.
6. BOHR SELLING DAVII
Davii sells a Bohr and all riding equipment. 1 Bohr costs
4,000 gamel. Vagabonds must not own a Bohr and will not
sell it unless the PC is wearing a Slave's Collar or Honorary
Bracelet. If the PC buys a Bohr, the next day, the Davii will
have a new Bohr for sale.
7. MEET SOMEONE
This event occurs if PCs try to leave [22: Open-air
Market].
PCs may meet an important person in the City Of Mist
here. Roll 2d. If the roll is 8 or more, the PCs meet an
important person. In this case, roll 1d and refer to the
“Important Person Encounter Table” to determine the
person they met.

There is an old woman who is struggling to carry a heavy
load. If PCs help her carry the luggage, she will tell them that
she is Miranda, who lives in [42: Cul-de-sac Tenement
House]. Determine the Block of [42: Cul-de-sac Tenement
House] and fill it on the map. If PCs want to carry her luggage,
they have to go to [42: Cul-de-sac Tenement House].
Miranda is treated as a civilian if a battle ensues during the
process (see p. 5).
2) Ursula of the Trees +★
If PCs have already met Ursula before, nothing will
happen.
There is a dwarf woman who is carrying a large amount of
luggage. If PCs want to help, she claims to be Ursula, who runs
[36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through the Trees”]. Her luggage is
said to include medicines, sheets, and a change of clothes for
use in the sanatorium. Determine the Block for [36:
Sanatorium “Sunlight through the Trees”] and fill it on the
map. If PCs want to carry her luggage for her, they have to go
to [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through the Trees”]. If PCs get
into a battle, Ursula will take on half of the enemies (rounding
down); choose randomly which enemies Ursula will fight, and
exclude them from the battle.
3) Butler of Sandrine +★
If PCs have already met Sandrine before, nothing will
happen. Steward asks the PCs, “My master is looking for
skilled people. Are you confident in your skills?”. If the PCs
answer yes, he invites them to come to [61: Lighted House].
Determine the Block for [61: Lighted House] and fill it on the
map.
If PCs accept the invitation to go to [61: Lighted House],
Steward will give the PCs a Key to Sandrine’s House and say,
“Please use this key in the keyhole behind the doorbell at the
back door. A servant will be waiting for you.” He then says,
“I'm sorry, but my master has something to do,” and leaves.
After going to [61: Lighted House], refer to [61: Lighted

The street is flanked by crude buildings. There is a faint
sweet aroma wafting in the air as if incense is steeping
somewhere. If you look closely, you can see young women
and beautiful boys standing on the street corners, looking
seductively at the people passing by. Apparently, this is a street
for those who are in the night business.

>If PCs want to see what is going on, go to “2. Observe the
Street.”
>If PCs want to contact the prostitutes, go to “3. Contact
Prostitutes”
>If PCs want to show Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery,
go to “4. Showing Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery”.
1. THE ONLY COLORFUL PLACE IN THE
CITY OF MIST
This is a city of male and female prostitutes. They deal
with wealthy slaves, vagabonds, honorary barbarous, and
barbarous people who look like humanoids. The prostitutes
are all humanoids of all humanoid races. The price is 30
gamel per 1tb per person. The room to stay is assigned to each
prostitute, and they will show PC the room when the deal is
settled. The rooms are managed by a prostitutes' guild and are
completely safe.
2. OBSERVE THE STREET
If PCs want to observe the city, they need to make a check
(Target Number A) with “Adventurer Level +Intelligence
modifier.” If they succeed, they will notice that some
prostitutes wear “Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery”
wrapped around their wrists or tied around their waistbands.
3. CONTACT PROSTITUTES +★
If PCs want to contact prostitutes for any purpose, they will
be asked to pay the market price (30 gamel per person per
1tb). If they want, they can pay for more than 2 tb. If PCs pay
for all the party members, they can be taken to a room in the
same building. In this case, the GM should recommend that
the PCs act together, as it would be too complicated if the PCs
were separated.
After paying the price, the PCs are taken to a room in a
nearby building. If they approach the women without
observing the street, GM should randomly decide whether or
not they are wearing a handkerchief.
1) For Prostitutes who do not Wear Handkerchiefs
If the person PCs talking to a prostitute who is not wearing
a “Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery,” they will be
surrounded by ruffians in the room to which they are led, who
will threaten PCs with, “If you want to save your life, leave
what you have and get the hell out of here.”
To determine the ruffians use the “Humanoids Encounter
Table” (see p. 125).
If PCs want to follow the thread, they must offer more than
200 gamels of gold or an item to be released. In the case of
items, the base price should be used.
If they refuse the demand, then there will be a battle.
When the ruffians are defeated, the prostitutes who have
guided the PCs are frightened and ask for forgiveness. If the
PCs forgive him, they will thank them and run away. If PCs
ask about the “Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery,” they
will tell PCs that those wearing the handkerchief are members
of the prostitutes' guild run by Ariadne, the Daughter of the
Moon. Ariadne is the boss of all the prostitutes in the area. If
PCs join her union, they can work in safety. However, they say
they are not in the guild because they are forbidden to strip
off their foolish customers and must pay for the place.
The room to which the PCs are led is safe; they may rest
here. In this case, the PCs are treated as being able to rest for
1tb same tb in which combat happened.
2) For Prostitutes Wearing Handkerchiefs
If the PCs are approached by a prostitute wearing a
“Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery,” they will have a fun
and safe night. If the PCs ask them about the handkerchief,
they will reply, “It's a sign that you are a member of the
Daughter of the Moon's sisterhood.” If PCs ask to meet
Ariadne, they will respond, after some thought, “I can
introduce you to her if you help me find my missing friend.”
If you want to know more about the details of this request,
please refer to “3) Request of the Prostitute” to continue the
game.
PCs may use the paid tb as is for the rest. They can rest
even after having a good time with them.
3) Request of the Prostitute
According to prostitutes, a prostitute named Mylene has
gone missing. According to one of the regulars, Mylene was
near [45: Town of No Return] with her lover. [45: Town of
No Return] is a terrifying place where dangerous mythical
beasts roam. The prostitutes are skeptical but ask PCs to
check out [45: Town of No Return] just in case. If they accept
this request, they also tell PCs that Mylene has a Handkerchief
with Wasp Embroidery.
If PCs have already found the woman's corpse in [45:
Town of No Return] and have found a Handkerchief with
37
Wasp Embroidery, see “4. Showing Handkerchief with
Wasp Embroidery”.
If PCs want to find Mylene, they need to go to [45:Town
of No Return].

>Find Mylene
The PCs must go to [45: Town of No Return] and look
for Mylene. Refer to the fixed mission “Searching for Mylene”
(see p. 98) in the fixed mission list to proceed with the game.
4. SHOWING HANDKERCHIEF WITH
WASP EMBROIDERY
If the PCs show the Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery
to a prostitute who is wearing the same handkerchief, they will
be asked, “Where did you get that handkerchief?”
1) If PCs received it from Mabel or Marilyn
When PCs tell them that either Mabel, the gambler, or
Marilyn, the “Headhunter,” has given him a handkerchief, the
prostitutes look at them with suspicion. They tell PCs that the
handkerchief represents membership in the “Moonlit
Wasps,” an organization that opposes the barbarous. They
then say that if the PCs want, they can take PCs to see their
leader, Ariadne, the “Daughter of the Moon”. However, in
order to do so, they tell the PCs that they need to test them to
see if they are trustworthy. “Can you help me find her?
Actually, one of the members is missing right now.”
To hear more details, refer to “3) Request of the
Prostitute” in “2. Contact Prostitutes” and proceed with the
game.
2) If They Got it in the [45: Town of No Return]
+★★
When the PCs tell the prostitutes that they have obtained
a handkerchief from the corpse of a woman in [45: Town of
No Return], the prostitutes cry out, “This is Mylene's
handkerchief.” They eventually confide that the owner of the
handkerchief is their dearest friend... Mylene was one of the
prostitutes in the city who had gone missing with her lover.
The prostitutes thank us for finding Mylene's corpse and
tell PCs that the handkerchief belongs to a member of the
“Moonlit Wasps,” an organization opposed to the barbarous.
If the PCs wish to meet Ariadne, see “5. Ariadne, the
“Daughter of the Moon.”
Whether they are allowed to see Ariadne or not, the
prostitutes pay 200 gamels per person as a gratuity for finding
the corpse of their companion.
5. ARIADNE, THE “DAUGHTER OF THE
MOON” +★
The PCs can meet Ariadne, the “Daughter of the Moon,”
only if they have been allowed to see her by the prostitutes,
either by completing the fixed mission “Searching for Mylene”
or by finding Mylene's corpse.
First, the PCs are led through the intricate alleyways of
Prostitution Street and into one building; Ariadne is in its
basement.
38
Ariadne is the leader of Moonlit Wasps, one of the
resistance organizations against barbarous rule. The “Moonlit
Wasps” is composed of prostitutes, bandits, and assassins who
repeatedly carry out assassinations aimed at the barbarous.
She knows “Important Information: About “Magic Sword of
Red Mist” Kurgaran. 1. Existence, 2. Location, 3. Effect. 4.
Secret” (see p. 105). But will not share this information for
free (see “Ariadne's Rewards” p. 39). She also strongly
influences the pirate Orzozo, the “Blue Butcher.”
1) Ask Ariadne for Help
This event occurs when the PCs ask Ariadne for help
because they are “looking for a way out of the city” or “looking
for someone to help them plan to get barbarous out of the city
or kill the barbarous.”
If the PCs are honest about the situation, Ariadne is willing
to help the PCs if they cooperate with the “Moonlit Wasps”
and fulfill the tasks she asks them to do. See “Ariadne’s
Requests” (see p. 39) for more information about Ariadne's
requests.
The objectives of the PCs and Ariadne's assistance to them
are as follows. In addition to this, “Ariadne's Rewards” (see p.
39) can be obtained by fulfilling “Ariadne’s Requests.”
OBJECTIVE 1. GET OUT OF THE CITY
Ariadne promises to write a “Letter of Introduction to
Orzozo” depending on the PCs' performance; Orzozo will
transport all the PCs to Kashkarn with this one letter of
introduction. For the conditions of getting a letter of
introduction to Orzozo, please refer to “Reward 1. Letter of
Introduction to Orzozo” in “Ariadne's Rewards.”
OBJECTIVE 2. R ESCUE A SPECIFIC P ERSON
If PCs want to rescue Sir Erlan Delmayle, who is being
held prisoner in [66: Prison], Ariadne can procure the Prison
Key for them. For the conditions under which she will provide
PCs with the Prison Key, please refer to “Reward 7: Prison
Key” in “Ariadne's Rewards.”
OBJECTIVE 3. GET IN T OUCH WITH R ESISTANCE
If the PCs show Barkman's order, Ariadne will
immediately write a “Letter of Support from the Head of the
“Wind Brigade” addressed to the Principality of Durlesburg
and give it to them. For the conditions for providing
information on other resistance organizations, see “Reward 5.
Get in Touch with the “Wind Brigade” or “Reward 6. Get in
Touch with the “Suela's Flame.”
OTHER OBJECTIVES
Ariadne cannot help with anything else.
Ariadne will allow the PCs to use her hideout as a Base for
all these purposes until they fulfill their objectives.
Ariadne Becomes a Keeper
Thereafter, [23: Prostitution Street] will become Base.
Ariadne is not barbarous or honorary barbarous, so she
will not put Slave's Collars on PCs. Note that the PCs are still
vagabonds.
If the PCs are someone's slaves, Ariadne cannot be a
Keeper. Alternatively, the PCs may choose not to make
Ariadne a Keeper if they already have a Keeper. In either case,
the PCs can use [23: Prostitution Street] as a Base.
ARIADNE’S REQUESTS
Ariadne will make the requests in order, starting with
“Quest 1”. Once a Quest is accomplished, the next Quest is
requested. If the party's average level is above the level
specified for the Quest, this Quest will be available even if the
previous Quest has not been completed.
Upon completion of the request, the PCs may receive and
accumulate as many “Ariadne’s Favor” rewards as specified in
the Quest. Ariadne’s Favors should be recorded; the PCs may

 GLADIATORS' QUARTERS
In the middle of the street stands a stone statue of
Lildraken with his two-handed sword raised to the sky. On top
of a large building, next to the statue, is a coat of arms with the
same design as the statue. Strong men enter and exit the
building.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>To see the stone statue, go to “1. House of Shepherd Don
Bucado”.
>To enter the building, go to “2. Visiting Don Bucado”.
1. HOUSE OF SHEPHERD DON BUCADO
The stone statue represents Don Bucado, the Shepard,
and the building is his mansion. He was once the most famous
lildraken gladiator in the City Of Mist, winning victories with
his overwhelming strength and eventually achieving the
honorary barbarous position. He is now a retired gladiator
and instead owns many gladiators as slaves, allowing them to
compete in the matches of [63: Arena]. In Don Bucado's
mansion, many of his slaves live with him.
2. VISITING DON BUCADO +★
Anyone, at any time, who requests a visit may meet with
Don Bucado.
1) Hear from Don Bucado
When the PCs try to get some information from Don
Bucado, he only tells them what is relevant to [63: Arena],
such as the rules of the match, the “barbarous whims,” and
opponents. If PCs ask him about anything else, he says,
“Everything is worth taking hold of with your own hands.”
If the PCs are not the slaves of another, they can become
the slaves of Don Bucado, who explains what rules his slave
must follow. But as long as they follow the rules, they are free
to do whatever they want.
2) Don Bucado's Rules
The slaves of Don Bucado become gladiators and must
fight in the [63: Arena]. At this time, the chance of being
forced to fight in a series of battles due to the “barbarous
whims” will be slightly reduced. However, they may continue
to fight if they wish.
If the gladiator wins, half of the prize money belongs to
Don Bucado. All prizes, including treasure/loot, will belong
to the gladiators.
After each match in Arena, the gladiator is free for the next
two days and must compete again in [63: Arena] until “dawn”
two full days (12tb) after the match. If the match is not
completed by this time, the PCs are considered fugitives and
are killed by the magic power of the Slave's Collar.
Gladiators must pay Don Bucado 5,000 gamels per
person and win a total of 16 Arena matches to have the
“Slave's Collar” removed and become free. However, if the
gladiator still wishes to remain a slave after 16 wins, Don
Bucado will not remove the Slave's Collar. In that case, PCs
must still compete in the Arena match every 2 days.
In addition, the slaves of Don Bucado can sleep for free
at [24: Gladiators' Quarters].
3) The Trials of Don Bucado
If the PCs accept to be slaves after listening to the rules,
Don Bucado will have them wear a Slave's Collar. Don
Bucado will then provide each PC with 1,000 gamel for
preparation. The PCs are then ordered to go to [63: Arena]
and perform a match to win the game before the second
“evening” from the current time. If the current tb is “evening,”
the deadline is the evening of the day after tomorrow.
Don Bucado Becomes a Keeper
Thereafter, [24: Gladiators' Quarter] will be the Base.
Don Bucado will remove his Slave's Collars if the PCs pay
him 5.000 gamels and if they win 16 games in the Arena.
However, if the PCs want to stay as slaves, they can do so. In
that case, the PCs must continue to fight as gladiators.
If PCs already have a Keeper, the PCs may choose not to
make Don Bucado a Keeper. In that case, [24: Gladiators'
Quarters] cannot be used as a Base.

 GRIEF PLAZA
This is a plaza paved with cobblestones. A number of
metal monuments made of cylinders of different lengths are
lined up in a row, making a sound similar to a weeping sound
whenever the wind blows. Surrounding them are dozens of
stone statues of humans, elves, dwarves, and other figures. All
of them are as realistic and precise as if they were warriors or
knights in armor and holding weapons.

>If PCs just want to continue, go to “3. Encounter with a

1. EXAMINE THE STONE STATUES
PCs need to roll the Insight check. If the success value is
10 or more, they will remember that Medusa (CR I, p. 445)
has the ability of [Petrifying Eyes]. If the success value is 11 or
more, PCs will remember that Basilisk (CR II, p. 309) has the
ability of [Petrifying Gaze].
After examining the statue, they may immediately
encounter a monster roaming the plaza. See “3. Encounter
with a Roaming Monster”.
2. EXAMINE THE MONUMENTS
There are 36 monuments in total, 6 vertical and 6
horizontal, which are charged with magic power and can be
detected by [Mana Search].
If PCs want to examine them in detail, they need to make
a check (Target Number B) with “Artificer level + Intelligence
modifier.” They will see that the whole plaza is designed to lift
up if they succeed. They can guess that it is a magic boat of
some kind, but we do not know what it is used for.
For more information about these monuments, see “The
Secret of the Monument in [25: Grief Plaza]” (GM only).
After examining the monument, they may immediately
encounter a monster roaming around the plaza. See “3.
Encounter with a Roaming Monster”.

T HE SECRET OF THE M ONUMENT IN [25: GRIEF P LAZA]
In fact, the monuments are a magical devices for clearing
mist. When the device is activated, the monuments extend
high into the sky with its pedestal, and the cylindrical part
sucks in the fog to make it disappear. This effect is effective
against the “Red Fog” generated by the “Magic Sword of Red
Mist” Kurgaran that covers the entire city and its surroundings.
However, this magical device cannot be activated here. There
should be a control panel somewhere in the city to activate the
magic device. For details, please refer to “Important
Information: About the Magical Device that Clears the Mist.
1. Existence, 2. Location, 3. Effects, 4. Secrets” (see p. 105).
3. ENCOUNTER WITH ROAMING
MONSTER +★
This event will occur if the PCs do nothing after stepping
into the plaza or immediately after “1. Examine the Stone
Statues “ or “2. Examine the Monuments”.
Each time the PCs enter the plaza, they may encounter a
monster roaming the square. Roll 2d. If the roll is 6 or less,
the PCs will encounter a monster, which will attack any
intruder they find in the plaza.
If the roll is 7 or more, PCs will not encounter the
monster. However, if the PCs do not move to the next tb and
stay in this plaza, they have to roll again.
The PCs have to determine the monster encountered by
referring to the “Roaming Monster Encounter Table” based
on the average adventure level of the party and battle the
monster. At this time, the monster shall be treated as a boss.
The stone statues in the square are all those turned to
stone by these monsters. A monster may also be accompanied
by a construct. In this case, the construct should be
determined by the Construct Encounter Table (see p. 124).
When encountering a “Failure” Heurica, refer to “1)
Encounter with a “Failure” Heurica”.
(*): PCs gain ★ for each battle they win against the
monster. However, the number of ★ gained in this battle is
limited to one per day. If the number of ★ gained in this battle
reaches 5 or more, the PCs will encounter a “Failure” Heurica
and construct, regardless of the party's average level.
Roaming Monster Encounter Table

less than 2.5 1 x Medusa
2.5 – 4.5 1 x Medusa and Construct
more than 4.5 “Failure” Heurica and Construct
1) Encounter with a “Failure” Heurica (+★)
Heurica was severely wounded in a battle with the former
Principality of Durlesburg forces and cannot use [Monstrous
Form]. If Heurica is defeated, in addition to the normal loot,
the PCs gain a Parchment in barbaric with “Third
Opening/Closing Code:276”. PCs will gain an extra ★ only if
they beat him (2★, including the one PCs get from “2:
Encounter with a Roaming Monster”).
If Heurica has been defeated, thereafter, 1 x Basilisk (CR
II, p. 309) will appear in place of Heurica. This Basilisk has
no disadvantages and no special loot.
 ”BURNING DANCER” PAVILION
Walking down the street, you eventually come to a
building made of black stone. The entire building is decorated
with humanoid skulls and has a frightening atmosphere, with
a barbaric sign that reads “Burning Dancer Pavilion.”
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to talk to people around them, go to “1. “Burning
Dancer” Pavilion.
>If PCs want to enter the “Burning Dancer” Pavilion, go to “2:
Entering the Bar.
1. “BURNING DANCER” PAVILION
This is a tavern of Jabardine, “Blackburn,” where food from
humanoids is served. Therefore, it is extremely dangerous for
humanoids to enter the bar.
This information can be elicited by paying more than 10
gamels to the people around PCs.
2. ENTER THE BAR +★
No one would stop the PCs if they attempted to enter the
bar. The interior of the bar is a dome-shaped space with a
circular stage surrounded by a cage in the center. The seats
are arranged around the stage and are filled with countless
barbarous. Among the barbarous, indoctrinated humanoid
slaves, they carry glasses and food.
Suddenly, the sound of a gong rings out, and a human
man, who seems to be a vagabond, is brought in and thrown
onto the center stage. A sizzling sound is heard, and the smell
of burning meat fills the restaurant. Upon closer inspection,
PCs see that the stage is a griddle on which a fire is burning
from below. A man is thrown out onto the heated plate and
struggles to escape but is prevented from doing so by the cage,
and eventually burns black and dies. A barbarous dressed like
a cook drags the corpse down, cuts it into pieces, and serves it
to the guests.
Are the PCs honorary barbarous or slaves of Sandrine
Capet, “Evening Princess,” Daemon Tamer Zabar, Shepard
Don Bucado, or “Queen of Sewage” Ondine? Or do PCs
have a “Letter of Introduction to Upper Barbarous”
addressed to Jabardine? In these cases, they can meet
Jabardine. See “1) Jabardine, Blackburn”.
Translator Note: In PCs wanting to talk to Jabardine, it is
up to the GM to react to them.
Otherwise, right after watching a man blackout on center
stage, a voice says, “Well, enjoy yourselves. Go on. It's the
food that jumps in your mouth”. PCs look up and see an
elderly gentleman with a stylish mustache and a wicked smile
on the second-floor terrace overlooking the restaurant. He is
Jabardine, “Blackburn,” Basilisk (CR II, p. 309). And
Jabardine's “jumping-in food” are the PCs. With his voice
saying, “Well, enjoy yourselves,” the surrounding barbarous
attack the PCs at once. The barbarous who attack the PCs
must be determined using the Barbarous Encounter Table
(see p. 122). In this case, the number of barbarous should be
treated as three times as many. One of the barbarous should
be treated as a boss.
If PCs win the battle, they will have time to escape. If they
do not escape, they will be surrounded by the barbarous again,
and the same battle will ensue. Once the barbarous are
defeated, and the escape is possible, the PCs may choose to
“run upstairs and fight Jabardine” or “rush to the back of the
bar.”
If PCs want to fight Jabardine, refer to “1) Jabardine,
Blackburn”. If PCs want to go into the back of the bar, refer
to “2) Back of the Bar”.
1) Jabardine, Blackburn (+★★)
On the second floor, seated in a special place on the
terrace, is Jabardine, the gentlemanly old man. He always
enjoys watching the feast going on below from this spot.
He always has a barbarous under his command. In the
event of a battle, his men will also participate and must be
determined using the Barbarous Encounter Table (see p.
122).
If PCs successfully defeat Jabardine, the other barbarous
will flee in fear of the PCs. In addition, only when the
Jabardine is defeated the PCs will gain 2★. In addition to the
normal loot, Jabardine also has a Canal Pass.
If Jabardine is defeated, the “Burning Dancer” pavilion
will be closed.
2) Back of the Bar
A kitchen and cellar are at the back of the bar. In addition,
there is a room with an iron cage where slaves are captured

In the room with the cage, barbarous under Jabardine
keep watch. Barbarous must be determined using the
Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122).
The cage has no traps but is locked. To unlock the lock,
PCs must make a Disable Device check (Target Number A).
If successful, the lock is released.
Also, there are many barbarous in the bar. If PCs want to
avoid being found by them, they need to make a Hide check
(Target Number B). In the case of a party, if any one of the
PCs fails to do so, they will be discovered. Barbarous must be

 ABANDONED HOUSE
A high stone wall goes on and on. Part of the wall has
collapsed, and there is a place where it looks like you can get
in. Looking through the collapsed part to the other side, one
can see a dilapidated garden and an old building. In the
garden, a trodden path has been formed from the wall to the
building, indicating that someone is coming and going.
However, the building is not lit.

1. CHECK THE FOOTPRINTS +★
If PCs want to examine the path leading from the fence to
the building, they need to make a Search check (Target
Number A). If successful, they will find a large footprint.
A successful Monster Knowledge check (reputation
11/weakness 16) reveals that the owner of the footprint is Troll
(CR I, p. 450).
2. INSIDE THE ABANDONED HOUSE
The doors of the building are old but well-maintained.
However, the building itself, which originally had three or
more floors, has collapsed from the second floor up. There
are several rooms on the first floor, one of which contains a
box with human bones. In another room, there is a staircase
to the basement.
1) Go up to the Second Floor
If PCs want to search the first floor, they must make a
Search check (Target Number A). If successful, they will find
a crumbling staircase leading up to the second floor.
To examine the staircase, they need to make an
Engineering check (Target Number A). If successful, they will
find that the staircase is so fragile that it will collapse if even a
little pressure is applied.
44
If the PCs attempt to climb the stairs, the stairs will
collapse. In addition, the fall will also cause the second floor
to collapse, raining debris down on the PCs.
In the case of a party, if even one person attempts to go up
the stairs, the stairs will collapse. The PC ascending the
staircase and the PCs directly below the staircase are caught in
the collapse. The PCs involved in the collapse suffer 2d+3
physical damage. This damage can be reduced by Defense,
but not with Tumble checks.
2) Encounter with Sonnenfeles (+★)
If tb “night” to “dawn,” Sonnenfeles is awake. On the
other hand, if tb is from “morning” to “evening,” Sonnenfeles
is sleeping.
If PCs go down the stairs to the basement, they will
encounter a Sonnenfeles, who will attack PCs if they are not
wearing Slave's Collars or Honorary Bracelets. If PCs are
wearing Slave's Collars or Honorary Bracelets, the
Sonnenfeles will ask, “What do you want?” But no matter
what they say, Sonnenfeles will not give PCs any information.
He tries to push the PCs away, annoyed. If they persist,
Sonnenfeles will get angry and attack them. There is only
Sonnenfeles here.
If a Sonnenfeles is defeated, the PCs will receive a Canal
Pass in addition to the normal loot.
Only if Sonnenfeles is defeated PCs will receive ★.
(3) Exploring the Basement
If PCs want to search the basement where Sonnenfeles
was, they need to make a Search check (Target Number 11).
If they succeed, they will find one of the treasures from the
Treasure Decision Table: $$$ (see p. 126). If the success
value of the Search check is 12 or more, a hidden door is also
found. The hidden door is not locked but is trapped. When
the hidden door is opened, the trap is activated. The trap must
be decided by using the Trap Decision Table C (see p. 127).
4) Behind the Hidden Door (+★)
When PCs open the hidden door, they will find themself
in a small room. There are bookshelves lined with many
books. To examine a book, they can make a Literature check

Only one magnificent three-story building stands out in a

1. YAMUR'S BAR
The bar is run by a honorary barbarous dwarf named
Yamur, and the second floor and above are used as an inn.
Most of the customers are humanoid slaves or vagabonds, and
Yamur's Bar is said to be the most decent place for humanoids
in the City Of Mist.
If PCs talk to people around the bar, they can obtain this
information for free.
2. ENTERING THE BAR
When the PCs enter the bar, they find it crowded with
customers and slaves who look like waiters are busily coming
and going, carrying drinks and food.
Behind the counter, a stout-looking dwarf is polishing a
glass. He is Yamur. On his arm, he wears an “Honorary
Bracelet,” a sign of honorary barbarous. In the corner of the
store, a group of slaves and vagabonds are playing dice.
At Yamur's Bar, PCs can eat and stay overnight. Rates are
as follows:

or Seira, the Snow Wind, and are collaborating with “Wind
Brigade.”
If even one of these conditions is met, Yamur considers
the PCs to be trustworthy. He collects a lot of information on
his own and knows these facts to be true about PCs.
If he finds PCs to be trustworthy, Yamur confides that he
is using his position as an honorary barbarous to protect many
people by making them slaves. He also tells PCs that he is
associated with the Wind Brigade, an organization that
opposes the barbarous. If PCs wish to contact the “Wind
Brigade,” he will tell them how to do so. Refer to “2) Yamur's
Help” and proceed with the game.
PCs who have gained Yamur's trust may henceforth stay at
the bar for free. However, they will be asked to help out in the
bar from time to time. If PCs want to help out in the bar, see
“3. Working at the Bar”.
If the PCs are not the slave of someone else, they can
become the slave of Yamur. In this case, Yamur will give the
PCs a “Slave's Collar” and promise to remove it whenever they
wish. Yamur will not use the Slave's Collar's magic power to
kill the PCs if they escape. However, if the PCs leave the City
Of Mist while wearing the collar, the magic power of the
Slave's Collar will be activated regardless of Yamur's will, and
the PCs will die.
Yamur Becomes Keeper
Thereafter, [32:Yamur's Bar] becomes the Base.
The PCs can remove the “Slave's Collar” at any time just
by asking Yamur.
If the PCs are someone's slave, Yamur cannot be a
Keeper. Or, if PCs already have a keeper, the PCs may choose
not to make Yamur a keeper. In either case, the PCs can use
[32: Yamur's Bar] as a Base
2) Yamur's Help
Yamur tells PCs that a young man named Melchior in [41:
Bandit's Path] is a member of the Wind Brigade. If PCs visit
his house and tell him they are from Yamur, he will take them
to the Wind Brigade's Base.
If the PCs have already met Melchior, then Yamur says,
“Then, yes, very well. Give him my regards”.

4. DICE GAMBLING +★
In the corner of the tavern, there are slaves playing dice.
In gambling, the house and participants roll dice to
determine the winner. The winner gets the other's wager.
If the PCs wish to participate in the wager, they must wager
5 gamel each time. Once the wager has been placed, the PCs
and the house each roll 2d. The player with the larger result
wins and wins the other player's wager. If the two participants
have the same roll, the house wins. In this case, the players
can cheat by flipping over both 2d's dice together. If the house
can win by flipping over, the house must always cheat.
If PCs want to find out if the house has cheated, they need
to make a “Scout level + Intelligence modifier” to check
(Target Number 12). If successful, the cheat is exposed. The
owner clicks his tongue, hands the PCs the “2d x 5” gamel,
today's winnings, and tells them to go away. PCs can't take part
in any more gambling for this day.
When multiple PCs participate in a wager, winning and
losing are determined between the house and a single PC.
(Note that the PC with the highest bet does not win everyone's
wager).
The cheating is the same process as [Sword’s
Grace/Change Fate], which is a racial ability of humans but
not the same. For this reason, it can be done any number of
times per day.

5. LATE NIGHT BEGGAR (+★★)

On the street in front of Yamur's Bar, there are always five
hooded beggars at “midnight.” They sit silently at the end of
the street and leave around “dawn.” If PCs follow them, they
lose them in the intricate alleys and lanes.
If PCs give even one gamel of gold, the beggar says,
“Thank you very much. I wish you good fortune from the gods
of Ignis.” If PCs continue to give them more gold, there is no
change in the words. Also, there is no specific effect of this
blessing. If PCs speak to him without giving them gold, he will
not respond.
When attacking beggars, see “The Identity of Beggar in
Front of the Bar.”

 RIVER OF BONES
The river is shallow, with a bed of dead white branches
and pebbles. Walking along the path leading to the riverbank,
you see barbarous carts coming toward you. The barbarous
stop and dump the contents of two large bags on their carts
into the river, and when the barbarous have finished their
work, they leave with the empty bags on their carts.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to step into the river, go to “2. Stepping into the
River”.
1. RIVER OF BONES
This is a dumping ground for the bones of humanoid
casualties. What appeared to be pure white dead branches or
pebbles on the riverbed are in fact, all human bones. The
undead of the River of Bones attacks indiscriminately those
who enter the river.
2. STEPPING INTO THE RIVER +★(*)
If the PCs attempt to enter a river paved by human
skeletons, several human skeletons will rise up. They are
Skeletons (CR I, p. 463), and their number is equal to the
number of PCs x 2. Furthermore, this place where the hatred
of the dead is strong and has the following effects.
(*): PCs gain ★ for each victory over Skeletons. However,
the number of ★ won in this battle is limited to one per day.
When the total number of ★ won in this battle reaches five, a
Bone Knights (CR II, p. 354) will appear in place of Skeleton.
[Bone Hands/Target Number C/Fortitude/Neg]
All PCs perform Fortitude checks at the beginning of their
turn. If they fail, they are grabbed by a bone hand protruding
from the ground and suffer a -2 penalty to their Accuracy
check and Evasion until their next turn. This effect has no
effect on those flying or floating. However, a PC that the
hand's grabs cannot fly during their turn.
[Skull Bite/Can’t]
The bones dance wildly, attacking everyone in the area,
and at the beginning of Skeleton's turn, all PCs take “1d +
Average Party Level” points of magic damage. This attack
cannot be avoided. It is not performed on consecutive turns.
Red Eyes
Eyes of the one Skeleton glow red. When this red-eyed
Skeleton is defeated, all Skeletons will collapse and will not
appear for 1tb.
However, the red-eyed skeleton is almost
indistinguishable from other skeletons and blends with other
Skeletons within the skirmish. Therefore, when attacking a
Skeleton with red eyes, the attacking PC must perform a check
(Target Number B) with “Adventurer level + Intelligence
modifier” to determine which skeleton it is. If the check fails,
the PC will randomly attack a different Skeleton.
An attacker who attacks a skeleton other than the one with
the red eye can attack the target skeleton even without the
check.
3. EXPLORING RIVER OF BONES
When all skeletons are defeated, the bones that have been
dancing wildly for a while will be calmed down. After
performing the loot check, the PCs may make a Search check
(Target Number B). If successful, they find one of the
treasures on the Treasure Decision Table: $$ (see p. 126).
In the 1tb, only one treasure can be found at this location.
Therefore, even if the Search check succeeds after the second
time, no treasure will be obtained.
If PCs return in different tb, they may find the treasure
again after fighting Skeletons. However, if a total of 5 treasures
are found at this location, no more treasures can be found.
SECRET OF THE L IGHTS IN [34: CLOISTERS OF THE
E VERLASTING N IGHT ]
This light, which seems to be a pale blue light, is actually a
magical light called “the Light of the Dead” that produces this
darkness. The magical darkness created by the Lights of the
Dead cannot be seen even with darkvision. However, only the
lights of the dead are always visible. Because the Lights of the
Dead have the magic power to abolish vision, those who are
within the range of these lights become unaware of anything
else. Therefore, a person who wanders into this place will be
forever circling the corridor lined with the Lights of the Dead.
However, if the perception is Magic or Mechanical, it is not
affected by the Lights of the Dead.
By walking with your eyes closed, you will not be affected by
this magic light. However, in this case, the direction of the
movement will be randomly determined.

If PCs want to examine the pale lights, they need to make
an Appraise check (Target Number 15). If they succeed, they
will find the information written in “Secret of the Lights in [34:
Cloisters of the Everlasting Night]” (see the previous page).
Only if the information on the lights is known, ★ is
earned.
2. WALKING IN THE DARK
As long as PCs keep your eyes open, they will only
continue to wander the cloisters no matter how much PCs
walk. In this case, refer to “1) Wandering the Cloisters”.
After every 1 tb in the dark, the PCs need to make a check
with “Adventurer Level + Intelligence modifier” (Target
Number 15). If they succeed, they come up with the idea that
they might be able to walk with their eyes closed. The
conditions for walking with eyes closed are as follows.
• PCs checked the lights, and Appraise check was successful.
• GM suggested walking around with eyes closed after PCs
spend 1 tb in the cloisters.
• Players themselves came up with the idea of walking around
with their eyes closed.
If any of these conditions is met, the PCs may attempt to
walk with closed eyes.
48
If PCs walk with their eyes closed, they will not be fooled
by the pale lights. However, roll 1d and decide the destination
by consulting with the “Destination Decision Table.”
Destination Decision Table
1–2 Go to “1) Wandering in the Cloisters”.
3–4 Go to “2) Go Outside”.
5-6 Go to “3) Reach the Amphitheater”.
1) Wandering in the Cloisters
The PCs are unable to escape from the darkness and
encounter an undead wandering in the corridor. This undead
is a person who has wandered into the cloisters and died. The
undead are determined using the “Undead Encounter Table”
(see p. 123), and the PCs must fight. In this case, the average
adventure level is treated as lower by -1.
When encountering undead, PCs need to make a Danger
Sense check (Target Number C). If the PCs fail, they are taken
by surprise by the undead.
In the darkness of the corridor, PCs cannot see the
undead even if they have darkvision or its equivalent, so they
suffer a -4 penalty for Accuracy checks and Evasion (which
stacks with the penalty for surprise attacks). Also, since the
target is not visible, the spells cannot be used except when
touching the undead (see below). These disadvantageous
effects do not affect characters whose perception is Magic or
Mechanical.
PCs can touch to feel the undead with Minor Action.
When casting a spell on the undead, an Accuracy check is first
made to touch the undead. If it hits, the magic can be used
during that round. In all cases, the caster must be on the same
skirmish as the target when touching to make an Accuracy
check and cast a spell.
2) Go Outside +★(*)
PCs travel to an adjacent Block in a randomly determined
direction. If the destination is a blank Block, the section must
be determined. If the destination is a wall or a sea direction,
then randomly select another Block.
(*): When PCs go outside, they will get one ★. However,
the number of ★ PCs that can get here is limited to one per
day.
3) Reach the Amphitheater +★
The PCs pass through the darkness and emerge onto a
plaza enclosed by darkness. Here, there is an amphitheater.
The stage floor is made of a hard, silvery, semi-transparent
material, neither metallic nor mineral, that glows green when
touched. PCs must make an Appraise check (Target Number
15). If they succeed, they will know that this substance is called
silver crystal and was made with magitech. According to the
record, it can not even be damaged by a direct hit from a
[Meteor Strike]. However, the method of refining it is now
lost. The silver crystal is charged with magic power and can be
detected by [Mana Search]. In order to get out of this place,
PCs need to go through the cloisters covered with darkness
again.
For more information on this amphitheater, PCs need to
make Appraise check (Target Number 15) one more time,
and if successful, they will find out more about it. See “The
Secret of the Amphitheater in [34: Cloisters of the Everlasting
Night]” (see the previous page).
 DESERTED GARDEN
Behind a crumbled and distorted iron fence is a deserted

2. ENTER THE GARDEN FOREST +★
The garden is large and overgrown with plants and trees
over the years, making it look like a small forest. When the
PCs step into this forest, they sense a disturbing presence. A
monster appears from the darkness created by the trees and
attacks the PCs.
PCs encounter a monster every time they set foot in this
forest, roll 1d, and use the Animal Encounter Table (see p.
122) to determine the monster encountered if the roll is 1-3,
and the Plant Encounter Table (see p. 123) to determine the
monster encountered if the roll is 4-6.
If the PCs defeat the monster, they will automatically find
1d pieces of Mucosol Grass. Mucosol grass can only be found
once per day. If a PCs find a piece of Mucosol Grass once,
they cannot find any more Mucosol Grass on that day here.
For more information on the effects of “Mucosol Grass,”
see “About Mucosol Grass” (see p. 35).
3. POND OF UNDINES
Passing through the dense forest, PCs arrive at the deepest
part of the garden, where a large pond with skunk cabbages in
full bloom appears. The air around the pond is pure and
clean. Then, a naked maiden emerges from the pond. She is
Undine (CR II, p. 391), who tells the PCs to leave this place
quickly. This Undine can speak in trade common.
If the PCs are runefolk and have no other companions
who can see the fairies or hear their voices, Undine tries to
communicate by writing on the ground.
1) Draw Water
If the PCs politely ask to be allowed to fetch clean water,
Undine will allow them to do so. However, they are reminded
to leave immediately. If the PCs do not leave, they are further
warned, and if they still do not leave, they will be attacked. At
this time, the Undine will call two fellow Undines.
2) Makes a Fairy Trail
If the PCs are willing to leave, Undine will create a fairy
trail that will lead them safely through the forest. This path will
allow them to return to the entrance without encountering the
monsters that inhabit the garden forest. Undine will also warn
them of the “5. Barbarous Ambush”.
If PCs have gained Undine's trust, she will create a fairy
trail whenever they leave the pond and return to the garden
entrance. See “3) Gaining Undine's Trust” for details on how
to gain Undine's trust.
3) Gaining Undine's Trust
For PCs to gain Undine's trust, one of the following
conditions must be met:
Sword.
Undine will acknowledge that the PCs are not barbarous
allies if one of these conditions is met. In this case, an elf
woman emerges from the pond. Her name is Claire, the
“Summer Memories.”
For more information on Claire, see “4. Claire, “Summer
Memories.”
4) Collect Golden Skunk Cabbage +★
Some of the skunk cabbages in this pond have golden
petals, and the PCs are allowed to collect the Golden Skunk
Cabbage if they have the Undine's trust.
For more information on the effects of Golden Skunk
Cabbage, see About Golden Skunk Cabbage (see the next
page). The ability score increased by the Golden Skunk
Cabbage is randomly determined by rolling 1d for each one
immediately after it is collected.
This pond has 1d of Golden Skunk Cabbages. Golden
Skunk Cabbage can only grow once a year. Golden Skunk
Cabbage can be sold for 500 gamels each.

 If the PCs attempt to collect the Golden Skunk Cabbages
without the Undine's permission, the Undine will warn them
not to do so. If the PCs still try to collect the Golden Skunk
Cabbage, the Undine will call two of its Undines to attack the
PCs.

If the PCs give Claire a sword shard, she can use it to
perform a ritual that creates a Swords of Protection ward.
Currently, this Sword of Protection is not very powerful, so its
effects only extend as far as the garden. However, Claire, who
has inherited the lost Magitech Civilization Period technology,
can strengthen the Swords of Protection through repeated
rituals.
If Claire receives a total of 100 or more sword shards, she
will be able to create a Sword of Protection ward that will be
powerful enough to affect the entire City Of Mist. Once this
ritual is completed, all monsters in the City Of Mist with a
monster level of 6 or higher will receive a -4 penalty on all
checks. However, once the Sword of Protection is completed,
the upper barbarous will not be able to ignore its presence,
and they will have to mobilize a large number of their men to
raid the garden.
Therefore, it would be wise for the PCs to give Claire 100
sword shards and ask her to complete the Sword of Protection

as if the purpose is to lead people astray. If you continue on
your way, you are bound to get lost.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to turn back, go to “1. A Couple Passing in an
Alley”.
>If PCs want to continue down the alley, go to “2, Intricate
Alleyways”.
1. A COUPLE PASSING IN AN ALLEY
PCs pass a pair of men and women. A man is walking with
an exhausted woman supporting him deep into alleyways.
If the PCs listen, they can get the man and the woman to
refer to each other as husband and wife and say that the
woman is diseased. If the PCs ask, “What's at the end of this
alley?” the man and the woman look at each other as if they
are not sure if they are allowed to talk or not. The conditions
under which PCs can get the man to talk are as follows.
• PCs are the priests of the first sword, Lumiere.
• Someone from PCs is diseased.
• PCs are honest about what brought them to the city.
• Confide that PCs have been asked by Nils, the “Fairy of the
Back Alley,” to meet with Ursula of the Trees.
If PCs meet even one of these conditions, the man tells
PCs that there is a sanatorium run by Ursula of the Trees at
the end of this alley. However, Ursula, who treats vagabonds
and slaves free of charge, is popular with them and unfriendly
to the barbarous. For this reason, the barbarous are after her
life. The maze of alleys in this area is to protect Ursula and
the sanatorium from the barbarous.
If PCs are able to talk to the man, they can ask him to take
them to the sanatorium.
If PCs do not meet these conditions, the men will try to
deceive them by saying, “No, our house is just down the road,”
and then walk away. When the PCs try to stop him, he says,
“I want to give my wife a rest as soon as possible,” and walks
away.
If the PCs are following the men, they need to make a
Follow check (Target Number C). They will go through the
alley and reach Ursula's clinic if successful. See “3. Plaza
Surrounded by Buildings”.
If the check fails, the men will notice that the PCs are
following them and will try to lead them astray through the
intricate alleyways. This will soon cause the PCs to lose sight
of the men and become lost. If PCs get lost, refer to “2.
Intricate Alleyways”.
2. INTRICATE ALLEYWAYS
The PCs are lost in the maze of narrow alleys. Roll 2d. If
the roll is 7 or less, they wander for 1tb before finally finding
their way out of the alley. If the roll is 8 or higher, they will
find themselves in a square lined with shabby shacks. See “3.
Plaza Surrounded by Buildings”.
3. PLAZA SURROUNDED BY BUILDINGS
After passing through the alley, they come to an open
space with bare reddish-brown soil. There, several crude huts
stand. Looking into one of the huts, PCs see several sick
people sleeping in one hut. There are no beds, just clothes on
the ground, but the place is well-ventilated, clean, and spotless.
If PCs want to look in a hut, refer to “1) Visiting a Hut.”
To leave the plaza, see “2. Intricate Alleyways”.
1) Visiting a Hut
When the PCs visit the cabin, they find a dwarf woman
busily at work. When they ask her, “What are you doing?”
She replies, “You see, you know what I'm doing. I’m treating
the sick. This is a sanatorium.” Her name is Ursula, and she
explains that she runs this free clinic for the poor. If the PCs
are diseased, she will prepare medicinal herbs for free and
they can stay here for a night if they wish. However, a donation
of 10 gamel per person per night is required except for the
diseased PCs. If PCs have no money, they may pay with their
labor. If they want to work, go to “2) Work”.
2) Work +★
They have to do laundry, clean, and prepare meals. Roll
2d, if the result is less than 6, the PCs will fail in this task and
will not be able to wash or clean the room cleanly, and the
food they have prepared will be terrible. In this case, Ursula
will chastise PCs for being “useless” and demand 10 gamel for
lodging. Translator Note: PCs can also use appropriate Work
Skills from Alchemist Works to help Ursula.
This service is not required if any of the PCs is a priest
who can cast [Cure Disease]. Instead, Ursula asks to cast spells
on three patients who are very sick. The Target Numbers for
curing each patient's disease are the first patient (Target
Number B), the second patient (Target Number B), and the
third patient (Target Number C). If the magical recovery of
the disease fails, Ursula will thank PCs for casting the spell.
3) Lodging
The PCs must make a Fortitude check (Target Number
A) if accommodated. If it fails, the PC becomes diseased. If
the PC failed to wash, clean, or prepare a meal on the day of
51
the party, it gains a penalty of -2. In a party's case, all the PCs
who failed to clean or prepare a meal receive this penalty, but
those who succeeded do not. Also, PCs that have already been
diseased do not need to make this check.
If the PC is diseased, they suffer 2 disease magic damage
per 1tb thereafter. This effect lasts until the disease is healed;
the diseased PC needs to make a Fortitude check (Target
Number A) every “morning,” and if successful, they recover
from the disease. The disease can also be cured by [Cure
Disease] (Target Number A).
4) Ursula's Request +★
In order for the PCs to gain Ursula's trust, they must fulfill
her request. The “morning” following the PCs' first overnight
stay at the sanatorium, she asks, “Can you fetch some water
for me?” Water can be fetched at [11: Fountain Square].
However, the square is also a dangerous place where
barbarous sometimes appear and hunt people. For this
reason, Ursula does not complain if PCs refuse this request.
Even if the PCs decline this request, Ursula repeats the
same request each day after they grow on the “morning”
following the PCs' stay.
If they accept the request, Ursula gives the PCs 100 gamel
and asks them to buy five waterskins at an item store in [22:
Open-air Market] before going to the spring. The PCs are told
to fill those waterskins with clean water.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>Go to Get Some Water
The PCs must go to [11: Fountain Square] and fetch clean
water for 5 waterskins. Refer to the fixed mission “Go get
Some Water” (see p. 98) in the fixed mission list to proceed
with the game.
5) Get Information from Ursula
If PCs accomplish “4) Ursula's Request,” Ursula says, “I'll
tell you something interesting because it might be useful for
you,” and randomly tells PCs one of Ursula's Information (see
p. 53).
When the PCs asked, “How do you know all this
information?” Ursula explains that the clinic attracts many
slaves and vagabonds, and she gathers information from their
gossip. She also says that she gets money for the operation of
the clinic by selling some of this information.
If the PCs want to get more information from Ursula, she
replies, “I can tell you things if you pay me for the information.
Or, if you help me with my work, I can tell you things for free.”
In this case, the work Ursula is referring to is not doing the
laundry or cleaning at the clinic but fulfilling special requests
that she directs.
If PCs want to ask specifically about work, refer to
“Ursula’s Requests.”
When PCs pay Ursula an information fee to get “Ursula's
Information,” they first need to specify the information they
want to know. If the information is in “Ursula's Information”,
the PCs can learn more about it by paying Ursula the
prescribed information fee.
52
URSULA’S REQUESTS
If the PCs want to ask for more information about the
work, Ursula will make the requests in order, starting with
“Quest 1”. Once a Quest is accomplished, the next Quest is

Gustav, the Lord of Bloody Castle! The Quest is completed
when PCs get permission to use the library from Gustav and
report it to Ursula. PCs will receive a reward and 2★ for
completing the Quest.
Quest 6. Obtaining Rotten Water of Eight Talons
This quest is available automatically on average adventure

hands on Rotten Water of Eight Talons!
For more information on the effects of Rotten Water of
Eight Talons, see “About Rotten Water of Eight Talons” (see
p. 84).
The Quest is completed when the Rotten Water of Eight

Tower], and give it to Ursula. PCs will receive a reward and
4★ for completing the Quest.
URSULA'S INFORMATION
The PCs can get a piece of information from Ursula in
“Ursula's Information” by paying the information fee
stipulated for each piece of information. If a PC uses one “free
information coupon” at this time, the information fee is free.
To get information from Ursula, PCs must first specify the
information they want to know. If the information is available
in “Ursula's Information,” Ursula will tell PCs about it.
If the information PCs specified is not in “Ursula's
Information,” Ursula will say, “I don't know that information.
I'm sorry. Can you ask me something else?”
PCs may decide to have information told to them at
random. In this case, Ursula first randomly determines the
information to be given. PCs can then pay for the information
or use a “free information coupon” to learn more about the
information.

6) Ursula Tells Her Secrets +★
If the PCs accomplish “Quest 3. Obtaining Sacred Wine
of Sacaros,” Ursula confides that she is the head of an
organization called “Suela's Flame.” “Suela's Flame” is one of
the organizations rebelling against the barbarous rule. “Suela's
Flame” is composed mainly of slaves, including slaves of
upper barbarous. Ursula is trying to make allies among the
slaves of Yahakkazesh. One day, when the Principality of
Durlesburg or the Lukythra Empire invades the City Of Mist,
Ursula will incite the slaves to respond to the invasion and
liberate the city.
If the PCs are honest about their situation and ask for help
in achieving their goals, she will promise the following
cooperation.
OBJECTIVE 1. R ESCUE A SPECIFIC P ERSON
Suppose PCs want to rescue Sir Erlan Delmayle, who is
being held prisoner in [66:Prison]. In that case, Ursula
promises to show them a hidden passageway into and out of
Prison, either by paying her for information or by
accomplishing the task she asks of them. For more
information on the hidden passageway, see “Information 6.
Prison's Hidden Passage”.
OBJECTIVE 2. GET IN T OUCH WITH R ESISTANCE
Suppose the PCs show Barkman's order and tell her that
they were looking for an organization in the City Of Mist that
is working against the barbarous. In that case, she will write
and give them a letter of support from the head of the “Suela's
Flame” addressed to the Principality of Durlesburg and give it
to them. He also tells PCs that there are two resistance
organizations in the city, “Moonlit Wasps” and “Wind
Brigade.” For more information on other resistance forces,
please refer to “Information 10. Location of the Resistance
Bases”.
OBJECTIVE 3. DEFEAT A SPECIFIC M ONSTER
Suppose the PCs tell Ursula they want to defeat a well-
known Monster. In that case, she promises to give them
information about the monster by paying for information or
accomplishing a task she asks for. For information on a
monster, refer to the appropriate information in “Ursula's
Information” (specific to Well-known Monster or
54
Information 11. Information on the Well-known Monster for
others).
OTHER OBJECTIVES
Ursula cannot help with anything else.
In all cases, Ursula will agree to shelter the PCs in the
sanatorium. However, in order to stay overnight, the PCs must
pay a 10 gamels lodging fee and work. For more information,
see “1) Visiting a Hut” and “2) Work” (see p. 51) in “3, Plaza
Surrounded by Buildings”.
Ursula Becomes Keeper
Thereafter, [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through the Trees”]
will become the Base.
Ursula is not barbarous or honorary barbarous, so she will
not put a Slave's Collars on PCs. Note that the PCs remain
vagabond for this reason.
If PCs is someone's slaves, Ursula cannot become a
Keeper. Alternatively, the PCs may choose not to make
Ursula a Keeper if they already have a Keeper. In either case,
the PCs may use [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through the
Trees”] as a Base.
4. NILS, “FAIRY OF THE BACK ALLEY” +★
Grassrunner Nils, the “ Fairy of the Back Alley,” frequents
the Ursula sanitarium. Roll 1d per 1tb while the PCs are in
the sanitarium. If the result is 6, Nils will come. However,
since Nils never comes to the clinic from “night” to “dawn,”
no check should be made at that time.
Nils will tell Ursula various information he has gathered in
the city, and if PCs succeed in a Listen check (Target Number
12), they will be able to eavesdrop on what he is saying. The
content of the conversation should be randomly determined
from “Ursula's Information.” In addition, the words “Suela's
Flame” will also be overheard, although the details are
unknown. If PCs ask Ursula or Nils about “Suela's Flame,”
they will only answer, “I don't know what you are talking
about.”
Nils is a member of “Suela's Flame” and is the contact
between Ursula and the other members. If Ursula confides to
the PCs that she is the head of “Suela's Flame,” she also
reveals Nils' true identity.
 BANDIT'S PATH
The street is lined with crumbling, battered houses. There
are few people in sight, and those who do come and go are
somewhat listless. There is no Slave Collar around their
necks, indicating that this is the area where the vagabonds live.
You look down at your feet and see a slab of wood with a sign
that reads barbaric, “Beware of robbery.”
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs are walking Bandit's Path, “1. Robbery”.
>If PCs want to go to Melchior's house, go to “2. Melchior's
House”.
1. ROBBERY +★
If the PCs are wearing Slave's Collars, an event will occur
immediately after they arrive at [41:Bandit's Path].
The PCs notice the wary glances of people passing by in
the alley. Apparently, this is a vagabond neighborhood, and
there is not a single slave in sight, so the PCs are complete
strangers here. Soon, several men approach and surround the
PCs. They said, “This is no place for pigs like you to hang
around. Leave all your money and belongings here and go
away.” If PCs refuse, they will be attacked. The enemies
should be determined by the Humanoids Encounter Table
(see p. 125). At this time, it is assumed that the humanoid
priests believe in Lu Lode.
If the PCs give up money and all their possessions as the
men demand, they chuckle and say, “Well, we'll leave you
some, be thankful,” and leave PCs only one-third of the
money (rounded up). In other words, they will take two-thirds
of the PC's money (rounded down) and all their possessions.
If the PCs mention the name Melchior or Edgar, the men
look at each other and ask, “How do you know that name?”
If the PCs are honest about the situation, the men consult with
each other, say, “Follow us,” walking away.
The men will take PCs to “2. Melchior's House” if they
mention Melchior's name or to “3. Temple of Lu Lode” if
they mention Edgar's name.
2. MELCHIOR’S HOUSE +★
PCs may only visit this location if someone tells them
where “2: Melchior's House” is located or gives them
directions.
When they visit the house, Melchior welcomes the PCs; if
they rescue Moulin, she also shows up and welcomes them.
If Melchior has promised the PCs that he will pay for their
expenses in rescuing Moulin, he will pay them the full amount
promised here. If the PCs are honest about the circumstances
of their arrival in town, Melchior nods, “I see,” and confides
that he is a member of the “Wind Brigade,” one of the
organizations that oppose the rule of the barbarous. He then
tells her that Wind Brigade might be able to help the PCs
achieve their goals. However, he says, “I would like to believe
in you personally, but the lives of many of my friends are at
stake. I would like you to be cautious.” He then makes “1)
Melchior's Request” as a condition for introducing the PCs to
his friends.
1) Melchior's Request
Melchior confides that Edgar, a member of the Wind
Brigade, has been captured by the barbarous and will soon be
executed. He then asks them to rescue Edgar.
Edgar's execution takes place in [56: Bloodstained Walls],
and Melchior says that from “morning” to “evening” [56:
Bloodstained Walls] are full of barbarous people watching the
execution, making it difficult to rescue Edgar. However, from
“night” to “dawn,” there will be fewer barbarous spectators. If
PCs want to rescue Edgar, they need to go to [56:Bloodstained
Walls].
If Edgar has already been rescued, Melchior also knows
about it and thanks the PCs. He will then guide the PCs to “3.
Temple of Lu Lode”.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>Rescue Edgar
PCs must go to [56: Bloodstained Walls] and rescue Edgar.
Refer to the fixed mission “Rescue Edgar” (see p. 97) in the
mission list to proceed with the game.
3. TEMPLE OF LU LODE
At the end of the winding back alleys of Bandit's Path, in
the basement of a building, there is a Temple of Lu Lode.
This is also the base of the Wind Brigade. If PCs have already
been to [12: Execution Site], they will be greeted by the
rescued “The Sea Breeze” Tohotel. He is the head priest of
this temple. If he has not been rescued yet, they will be greeted
by Seira, the Snow Wind, who is the acting head priest and
deputy head of the “Wind Brigade.”
If a Tohotel greets PCs, refer to “2) “The Sea Breeze”
Tohotel.”
If Seira greets PCs, she will ask the PCs to help her rescue
Tohotel. If they accept this request, proceed to “1) Seira's
Operation.”
If they don't take on the operation, Seira says, “Sorry for
troubling you,” but says nothing more. Instead, thereafter, the
PCs will not be able to cooperate with Wind Brigade.
If the PCs show Seira Balkman's order and tell her that
they were looking for an organization that was opposing the
55
barbarous in the City Of Mist, she will reply, “You can talk to
Mr. Tohotel about that. I'm just a deputy”.
1) Seira's Operation
Seira explains, “First, we will go to the execution site by
ourselves inconspicuously and hide in a building or in a large
room until the execution starts. When the execution starts, I
will attack at once with my arrow as a signal and take advantage
of the chaos to rescue Tohotel.” The PCs should wait in the
plaza and take part in the battle as soon as the operation starts.
Seira Becomes Keeper
Thereafter, [41:Bandit's Path] becomes Base.
Note that the PCs will not wear the Slave's Collar because
Seira is not barbarous or honorary barbarous. Note that this
means that the PCs will remain vagabonds.
If the PCs are someone's slave, they cannot make Seira a
keeper. Alternatively, if PCs have a Keeper, the PCs may
choose not to make Seira a Keeper. In either case, the PCs
can use [41: Bandit's Path] as a Base.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>Rescue Tohotel
PCs must go to [12:Execution Site] and help in the rescue
of Tohotel. Refer to the fixed mission “Operation Tohotel
Rescue” (see p. 99) in the fixed mission list to proceed with
the game.
2) “The Sea Breeze” Tohotel
“The Sea Breeze” Tohotel is a mild-looking man with
white hair. He offers the PCs to join the “Wind Brigade” and
help them in their efforts to reclaim the City Of Mist from the
hands of the barbarous.
If the PCs promise to cooperate with the “Wind Brigade,”
the Tohotel will be very happy and grateful. If the PCs are
honest about their situation and ask for help with their cause,
Tohotel promise to cooperate in the following ways.
OBJECTIVE 1. GET OUT OF THE CITY
If PCs are interested in escaping from the city, the pirate
Orzozo, the “Blue Butcher,” who occasionally appears in
[Fixed 1: Port], will lend a helping hand if they pay him.
Tohotel promises to provide funds to board Orzozo's ship if
they help “Wind Brigade.”
OBJECTIVE 2. GET IN T OUCH WITH R ESISTANCE
Suppose the PCs show Barkman's order and tell him that
they were looking for an organization in the City Of Mist that
is working against the barbarous. In that case, he will write and
give them a letter of support from the head of the “Wind
Brigade” addressed to the Principality of Durlesburg and give
it to them. He also tells PCs that there are two resistance
organizations in the city, “Moonlit Wasps” and “Suela's
Flame.” The “Moonlit Wasps” members use a Handkerchief
with Wasp Embroidery to recognize each other.
OBJECTIVE 3. DEFEAT A SPECIFIC M ONSTER
If the PCs tell Tohotel that they want to defeat a particular
Well-known Monster, roll 2d immediately. If the roll is 8 or
higher, the “Wind Brigade” has the monster's data and
56
location, and Tohotel will tell PCs. For more information on
monsters, see “List of Well-known Monsters” (see p. 20).
OTHER OBJECTIVES
Tohotel cannot help with anything else.
In either case, the Tohotel will shelter the PCs in the
temple and arrange for them to stay there for free.
Tohotel explains the activities of the “Wind Brigade” to
the PCs. First, he talks about “Important Information: About
“Magic Sword of Red Mist” Kurgaran:
Existence/Location/Effects” (see p. 105) and tells them that he
is investigating whether there is any way to neutralize this
magical sword. He then makes a specific request to the PCs;
see “Tohotel’s Requests” for a request.
Tohotel Become Keeper
Thereafter, [41: Bandit's Path] becomes Base.
Tohotel is not barbarous or honorary barbarous, so PCs
will not wear Slave's Collars. Therefore, the PCs will remain
vagabonds.
If the PCs are someone's slaves, they cannot make Tohotel
a keeper. Alternatively, if PCs have a Keeper, the PCs may
choose not to make Tohotel a Keeper. In either case, the PCs
can use [41: Bandit's Path] as a Base.
TOHOTEL’S REQUESTS
Tohotel will make the requests in order, starting with
“Quest 1”. Once a Quest is accomplished, the next Quest is
requested. If the party's average level is above the level
specified for the Quest, this Quest will be available even if the
previous Quest has not been completed.
Tohotel also promises to pay a reward for each request
fulfilled.
Quest 1. Gathering Information about the
Screaming Gates
The reward is 500 gamel per person. “Wind Brigade” is

1. CUL-DE-SAC TENEMENT HOUSE
This is a Cul-de-sac Tenement House where many
vagabonds live. In this tenement house, an old woman named
Miranda is called “the Mother of Vagabonds” by the local
vagabonds.
2. CHILDREN'S SONG
When the PCs step into this tenement, the girls sing a song
while playing ball.
If they are listening, see “Old Ballad from [42:Cul-De-Sac
Tenement House]” (see the next page). If you have a GM,
they must prepare a copy of the lyrics and hand it to the PCs.
3. BARBAROUS ATTACK +★
This event occurs immediately after hearing the song or
when the PCs try to find Miranda.
Suddenly, the barbarous come and grab the tenement
dwellers and try to take them away. They want to use them as
food or as slaves. The residents are frightened but do nothing
but watch as their neighbors and friends are captured and
taken away.
The barbarous will also attack the PCs, determine the
barbarous using the Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122),
and engage in combat.
When the barbarous are defeated, the inhabitants accuse
PCs of “going the extra mile.” They are afraid of retaliation
later. They want PCs to get out of here.
When the residents blame the PCs, an old woman steps
forward and says, “You can't talk to them like that after they
helped you”. The old woman's name is Miranda, and she is
one of the residents of the tenement. Thanks to her, the
accusations against the PCs are put to rest. Miranda apologizes
for the residents' attitude and says, “I feel better now that you
kicked the crap out of them. You saved my children from

Granma Miranda”.

4. GRANMA MIRANDA
Miranda treats the PCs to tea at her home. Then she asks,
“By the way, what did you come here for?”.

1) Ask About Song +★

When the PCs ask about the ballad, Miranda replies, “It's
something that has been handed down in this town since long
ago.”
According to the song, the princess in the song is the
Shelashis, the “Loving,” one of the four founders of the City
Of Mist during the Magitech Civilization era. She is said to
have been a very beautiful and gentle princess who was adored
by her people. She is said to have had one brother, Zoraentes
the Strong, and two sisters, Quick-Witted Selansier and Suela
the Fierce. These four siblings worked together to protect and
develop the City Of Mist. It is said that Shelashis, in particular,
had the power to “dispel the soulscars.” Zoraentes was the
eldest child, followed by Selansier and Suela, with Shelashis
being the youngest sibling.

2) Miranda's Help
If the PCs are honest about the circumstances that brought
them to the city, Miranda can tell them who might know
information that would be useful for their purposes.
Determine the person who will be introduced to PCs
according to the “Table of People Miranda will Introduce PCs
to” (see p. 22) in [Introduction 3: Home]. If the 1d result is a
person who has already appeared, reroll.
Thereafter, PCs may rest safely in the Cul-de-sac

 BLOODY CASTLE The trap should be determined by the Trap Decision
Table A (see p. 127). The door opens to a staircase leading to
the floor above or below. Going up or down the stairs, PCs
will come to a door, and when they open the door, they will
find a room.
A hidden door on the second basement floor leads to “3:
Bloody Castle Lord’s Room,” where Gustav, the Lord of
Bloody Castle, is located. To find the hidden door, PCs need
to successfully complete a Search check (Target Number A).
There is also a trap in this hidden door.
There are no lights inside the Bloody Castle unless
otherwise stated. For this reason, the PCs must provide
lighting, such as torches.

Bloody Castle Room Decision Chart

To determine room roll 2d. It has already appeared you
need to reroll.

The building is distorted as if it has been built over and

The bookshelves, which reach the ceiling, are crammed
with books. The books are kept by a female runefolk,
“Spectacled Librarian” Martha, who works for Gustav.
According to Martha, PCs can freely read books, but taking
them out of the castle is strictly forbidden. Martha has a small
magisphere with an [Flashlight] on it.
This library holds the books listed in the “Library's
Holdings List.” To find a book, PCs need to specify which
information they are looking for and perform a Literature
check (Target Number C). At this time, PCs may ask for
Martha's help. However, they must pay 100 gamel as a fee. If
PCs get help from Martha, they get a +3 bonus to their success
value.

1. EXAMINE THE DOUBLE DOORS +★

The double doors are not locked but trapped. The trap
should be determined by the Trap Decision Table B (see p.
127).

2. EXPLORE THE BLOODY CASTLE

The trap is triggered if PCs enter the Bloody Castle
without examining the double doors. Refer to “1. Examine the
Double Doors” for further details.
When PCs open the door, they come to a room on the
first floor.
Bloody Castle has five floors above ground and two below.
Each floor has one room. The rooms' contents must be
decided by rolling 2d using the “Bloody Castle Room
Decision Chart.” Once the contents of a room in Bloody
Castle are determined, they will not change.
Each floor is connected to the floor above and below by a
staircase, which is always blocked by a door. All the doors
separating each floor from the staircase are, without
exception, trapped. Please refer to the Map of Bloody Castle
for more information on the structure.
Every room has two doors. Unless otherwise noted, the
two doors are located facing each other. All of these doors are
unlocked, but they are trapped.

It is a room with several beds in a row. The beds are
equipped with traps that emit a paralyzing gas when PCs lie
down. To find the trap, a Search check (Target Number B) is
needed, and to disarm the trap, perform a Disable Device
check (Target Number B). If the PC lies on the bed without
finding the trap, they need to make a Spot Trap check (Target
Number C). If successful, they can jump back before the trap
is triggered.
If paralyzing gas is inhaled, PCs need to make a Fortitude

The room is warm and overgrown with plants. The ceiling
is luminous and bright, as if it were midday. The trees in the
room bear fruit. The fruit is something PCs have never seen
before. If they want to try eating the fruit, they must roll 1d. If
the result is 1-2, it is a poisoned fruit. If the answer is 3-5, it is
a normal fruit. And if the result is 6, it is a fruit that restores
HP.
The PCs immediately suffer 1d+2 poison magic damage if
a poison fruit is eaten.
If PC eats normal fruit, nothing special happens.
If a PC eat a fruit that restores HP, their HP is immediately
restored by 1d points.

There are 1d+1 fruit in total; for each one, determine what
kind of fruit it is.
(9). APATHY R OOM
A black mass is floating in the dark room. The black mass
is Shade (CR III, p. 383), a fairy who uses the unique skill
[Dark Mind] when PCs enter the room. If PCs succeed on the
Danger Sense check (Target Number 12) or a PC with the
Fairy Tamer class is present, PCs can sense its presence.
If PCs tell Shade that they have no intention of going
against is, it will let them through. However, Shade can only
speak sylvan.
(10). R OOM WITH CAGES +★
There are four cages, two on each side of the room. All of
the cages contain one mythical beast, and there is a door
behind each cage. These doors are, in fact, all fake. The rear
door is hidden in the front wall. To find the real door, PCs
must complete a Search check (Target Number 10).
All cages are locked. To unlock a cage, PCs need to make
a Disable Device check (Target Number A). If they unlock
the cage, the mythical beast in that cage will attack PCs. The
mythical beast must be determined with the “Mythical Beast
Encounter Table” (see p. 124).
(11). R OOM WITH GEARS +★
It is a high-ceilinged room with countless gears turning
inside. The door is located near the ceiling and about 5 meters
from the floor. Therefore, one must go through the gears to
get to the door.
If PCs are going through the gears to the door, they need
to make a check with the “Adventurer Level + Agility
modifier” (Target Number B). If the PC fails, it will receive 9
points of fall damage. This damage can be reduced with a
Tumble check.
If the gear room is at the 1st basement level or 2nd
basement level, the PCs would have entered the room through
a door near the ceiling. In order to descend to the floor, they
must go through the gears. The check performed when
descending through the gears and the fall damage received if
the check fails are the same as when ascending through the
gears. But they will reach the next door even on a failed check.
(12). F OUNTAIN R OOM +★
There is a large fountain in the center of the room,
surrounded by statues of maidens that seem to represent
Undines. One of the maidens pours water into the fountain
from the palm of her hand, and when PCs enter the room,
she speaks to them in magitech, “Are you bathing? If you
would like to take a medicinal bath, please dissolve some
herbs in the spring”. If PCs wish to bathe, they will heat the
water in the spring. If PCs put medicinal herbs in the fountain,
their effect will be felt by everyone who has entered the
fountain (Lifegrass, Magic Herb, etc.). The “Ranger class level
+ Dexterity modifier” instead will be 7. So each PC will need
to roll the Power of the herb + 7 to determine the effect’s
strength.
 3. BLOODY CASTLE LORD'S ROOM +★
When PCs open the hidden door on the 2nd basement
floor, they will see a huge figure standing in front of them,
shining in a pale blue-white light. The figure shouts in a
thunderous voice and threatens the PCs, “You insolent
offenders! Leave at once!”. At the same time, lightning strikes
the surroundings.
PCs need to make a Detect check (Target Number A). If
successful, the PCs see that the figure is an illusion. The
illusion is projected by a magical device in the room. The
same is true for sound and lightning. If the PCs cannot see
through the illusion and run away from the room, no one will
come after them.
When the illusion is discovered, a young woman's voice
from the back of the room says, “Aww. I've been discovered”.
The room is separated by a black curtain and a bedroom
behind it. There is a girl and a female runefolk.
The girl is Gustav, Lord of Bloody Castle, the name of her
late father, her real name is Judith. She calls runefolk Ade the
RUINS OF THE TEMPLE OF TIDAN
It is cruelly destroyed ruins. There are blackened scorch
marks, indicating that it had been set on fire. Looking closely,
one of the collapsed pillars bears the holy symbol of Tidan.

If PCs want to examine the ruins of the temple in detail,
they need to make a Search check (Target Number A). They
will find a staircase leading to the basement under the rubble
if successful.
“Mother.” Ade is Judith's caretaker and has been her mother
since she was a little girl.
Judith is in possession of a book with information about
“Important Information: About the Canal Gate. 1. Existence
and Location/2. Open/Close Codes Required” (see p. 105).
And she knows the “Third Opening/Closing Code: 276” that
her father had told her about, and if PCs ask her about the
Canal Gate or the Opening/Closing Codes, Judith will tell
them on the condition that they “never reveal what they saw
or heard here.”
Once the PCs get acquainted with Judith, she will give
them “Gustav's Bell” to call Ade on the first floor.
With Ade's guidance, PCs can safely enter and exit “(2).

“(2). Library” has not yet appeared inside Bloody Castle, it is
assumed that “(2). Library” is located at the back of this room
(which is not shown on the map).
2. BASEMENT +★
Down the stairs is a basement. There are countless human
bones lying around in the basement, all of them old. They
probably belonged to people who were once hunted down
and burned to death by the barbarous.
Here, undead lie waiting and will attack the PCs as they
enter. The undead must be determined using the Undead
Encounter Table (see p. 123).
If PCs want to search the basement, they need to make a
Search check (Target Number B). If successful, they will find
a hidden door. The hidden door is neither locked nor
trapped.
A hidden door leads to a passageway. There is a trap in
this passage. The traps should be decided by using the Trap
Decision Table B (see p. 127). At the end of the passage is a
small storage-like room.
If PCs want to check a room like a storage room, they need
to make a Search check (Target Number A). If they succeed,
they will find one of the treasures on the Treasure Decision
Table: $$ (see p. 126) and a plate marked “Second
Opening/Closing Code: 951” in the magitech.

high pile of junk. Refer to “1) Pile of Junk”.
Search checks here can be performed as many times as
necessary until the “1) Pile of Junk” is found. However, every
two search checks, 1tb will elapse, and the PCs will encounter
mythical beasts. The mythical beasts must be determined by
the Mythical Beast Encounter Table (see p. 124).
Once the Search check succeeds, the mythical beast will
not appear even if the Search check is performed here again.
However, 1tb still will elapse for every two times the Search
check is performed.
1) Pile of Junk +★
It is a place piled high with rubbish.
Immediately after the PCs discover the pile of junk, they
encounter mythical beasts. The bloodthirsty mythical beasts

PCs win the battle with the mythical beast, they can examine
the pile of junk.
If PCs want to search through a pile of junk, they need to

PCs meet a middle-aged man carrying a bag of medicinal
herbs. He calls himself Ramshin. He is a vagabond and says
that he collects and sells medicinal herbs. PCs may buy herbs
from Ramshin. If PCs buy lifegrass or magic herb, Ramshin
will use the herb for the PC. Ramshin's Ranger class level +
Dexterity modifier is 8. If PCs are looking for “Mucosol

If PCs ask Ramshin for directions, they will automatically

Ramshin comes here frequently and says, “If you want
medicinal herbs, come to the entrance of the hill.” When he
comes to this hill, he keeps a marker, so he says that if PCs
wait at the entrance, they can meet him. Thereafter, if PCs
come to [46: Black Hill] to meet Ramshin, they will always
find his mark if PCs are there from “morning” to “evening”
tb. If PCs wait, they will meet Ramshin coming down from the
hill in the next tb. However, some events will occur while PCs
are waiting. Please refer to the “Random Event List” (see p.

a barbaric, “I've paid you. Go quickly. If you run away, I'll kill
you. If you don't go, I'll kill you.” It seems that he is ordering
the vagabonds to enter the ruins.
One of the barbarous is Zu Gri, “Lord of Greed,” Ogre
(CR II, p. 303), who brought the vagabond to him and
demanded, “Now that you have paid, go dive into the hole
and kill the monster inside!” From the content of the story, it
can be inferred that several people have already dived into the
hole but have not returned. When the PCs came here, Zu Gri
found them with a keen eye and demanded, “Bring out the
treasures from the ruins. According to my estimation, there
must be more than 2,000 gamels. Go on”. The reward is 100
gamel per person, paid in advance. If PCs want to enter the
ruins, go to “2. Entering the Ruins”.
If the PCs refuse or run away, Zu Gri will come after them.
Zu Gri has a barbarous under his command. The barbarous
under his command must be determined using the Barbarous
Encounter Table (see p. 122).
In the event of a battle, only the barbarous under his
command will initially join in the fight, not Zu Gri himself. If
the PCs defeat his men, Zu Gri will say, “I will let you choose
one more time. Enter the ruins for me or die fighting me.
Choose whichever you prefer.” If PCs choose to enter the
ruins, go to “2. Entering the Ruins. If they refuse to enter the
ruins, they will have to fight Zu Gri. Only if PCs defeat Zu Gri,
they will receive 2★.
2. ENTERING THE RUINS
Most of the ruins have collapsed and are inaccessible.
There are five rooms in the ruins that can be explored. Each
room has two doors arranged so that they face each other.
However, there is only one door in the first room. All the
doors are unlocked and have no traps. The contents of the
rooms must be determined by rolling 1d and using the “Ruins
Rooms Table.” However, in the fifth room, a construct will
always attack the PCs. Determine the construct using the
Construct Encounter Table (see p. 124).
Ruins Rooms Table
Roll 1d. If you get the same result that already appeared,
you must reroll.
(1). N OTHING IN THE R OOM
(2). R OOM WITH A H OLE
There is a large hole in the middle where several corpses
have been thrown in. There are also 1d+2 new corpses, and
each of these new corpses has 100 gamels when explored.
In addition, the Search check (Target Number B) is
performed, and if successful, the “1d” treasure from the
Treasure Decision Table: $$ (see p. 126) can be found.
(3). R OOM WITH JUNK
Broken magitechs, etc., are piled up in this room. If PCs
want to examine them, they need to make a Danger Sense
check (Target Number B). If they succeed, they will find that
the junk is infested with Poisonous Fungi, which spit out
purple poison spores when the PCs try to explore the junk. If
the PCs do not notice the fungus, or if they do notice the
fungus but search through the debris, they will spit out spores.
PCs that have examined the debris need to make a Fortitude
check (Target Number C). If they fail, they become ill.
If the PC is ill, they suffer 2 disease magic damage every
1tb thereafter. This effect lasts until the disease is healed. Each
“morning” PC who is diseased can make a Fortitude (Target
Number A) every “morning,” and if successful, they recover
from the disease. The PCs can also be cured by [Cure
Disease] (Target Number A).
If PCs want to search through the junk, they need to make
a Search check (Target Number B). If they succeed, they will
find one of the treasures in the Treasure Decision Table: $$$
(see p. 126).
(4). DOOM R OOM
There are three recesses on each side of the room,
containing a total of 6 DOOMs (CR I, p. 481). In the center
of the room is a pedestal with the word magitech “Activate”
flashing in red on its surface.
If PCs want to search the room, they need to make a
Search check (Target Number A). If they succeed, they will
find that the DOOMs in the recesses are clearly in the process
of being manufactured, and some of the armor plates have not
been installed, or the arms have not been attached. Four
DOOMs appear to be able to move at present, but even these
seem unlikely to be able to operate for long periods. If PCs
want to examine the DOOMs in a more specialized way, they
can use “Artificer level + Intelligence modifier” to perform a
check (Target Number C). If successful, they will find that
65
DOOM's uptime is close to one to two rounds. They will also
see that DOOM will start working when PCs touch the
flashing “Activate” sign on the pedestal in the center of the
room.
When PCs touch the word “Activate”, they will hear a
beep sound, and DOOMs will start moving. Four DOOMs
start moving. The other two DOOMs are not yet ready to
move. The DOOM that starts to move attacks the PCs that
have entered the building without permission. Combat.
However, since they are in the process of being manufactured,
they can only act for two rounds; after two rounds, they
collapse.
If the PCs do not give up more than 2,000 gamels of loot
or treasures as requested, Zu Gri will yell “You thieving
bastards!” and attack PCs with barbarous at his side. The
barbarous under his command must be determined using the
Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122). Only if PCs defeat
Zu Gri, they will receive 2★.
If the PCs give up more than 2,000 gamels of loot or
treasures as requested (or if there is a shortage, they can make
up the difference with cash or goods on hand), Zu Gri will be
satisfied and release the PCs. He then says that he will make
this ruins his home. From then on, the PCs can meet Zu Gri,
“Lord of Greed” at any time at [51. Ruins].

(5). GAS R OOM

When all PCs enter the room, the door automatically
closes, and the poison gas comes spewing out of the ceiling.
They need to make a Danger Sense check (Target Number
B). If successful, they will notice the door closing. If they want
to escape, they need to make an “Adventurer level + Agility
modifier” check (Target Number A). If successful, they can
escape before the door closes. If they want to hold the closing
door, an “Adventurer level + Strength modifier” check is
needed (Target Number A). If successful, they can stop the
door from closing. The poison gas will not be sprayed unless
the door is completely closed. If the door closes completely,
it becomes locked.
When the poison gas is released, the PCs in the room
need to make a Fortitude check (Target Number C). If failed,
the PCs suffer 2d poison magic damage; the poison gas will
dissolve from the room after 1 minute, and the doors open.
If PCs know that the door closes when they enter a room
and want to run through before the door closes, they can make
an “Adventurer level + Agility modifier” check (Target
Number C). If successful, they can run through the room and
exit through the door on the other side before the door closes.

(6). R ESEARCHERS’ R OOM +★

The beds are cleverly arranged in a room separated by
compartments. Each bed has a small desk next to it. To
search, PCs need to make a Search check (Target Number
A). If they succeed, they will find one of the treasures from
the Treasure Decision Table: $$$ (see p. 126). In addition,
they find a bundle of research papers in a desk drawer. The
bundle of papers is titled “Improvements of Light of
Shelashis” in magitech and contains “Important Information:
About Light of Shelashis. 1. Existence/2. Location/3. Effect/4.
Secret” (see p. 105).

3. FORTRESS OF ZU GRI
After exploring all the rooms, Zu Gri will be waiting for
PCs outside the ruins and says, “Give me everything you got
in there.” Zu Gri will accept if PCs offer him loot or treasures
that are worth more than 2000 gamels in the base price. A
bundle of papers titled “Improvements to the Light of
Shelashis” is considered to be worth 1,000 gamel.
If the PCs are reluctant to give, or if the total amount
offered is less than 2,000 gamels, Zu Gri would say, “Bullshit!
There must have been more than 2,000 gamels!” If the total
base price of the loot or treasure obtained in ruins was really
less than 2,000 gamels, Zu Gri would back down.

 BACK ALLEY
You found yourself lost in a convoluted, narrow alleyway.
Walking aimlessly, you found a rag on the side of the road.
And then, the rag begins to move. It turned out to be an old
woman clad in rags.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to talk to an old woman, go to “1. Knowledgeable
Old Woman”.
>If PCs want to ignore the old woman, go to “2. In the Alley”.
1. KNOWLEDGEABLE OLD WOMAN +★
The old woman looks at PCs and says in horror, “You
have come to bully me again, haven't you? I know you have.
How much more do you have to bully this old woman?”
When PCs convinced her that they were not here to bully
her, she finally seemed relieved and asked, “Then what are
you doing here?”
The old woman, who goes by the name of Navaria,
confides that she used to be an elf who used to manage the
canals of the City Of Mist. However, she looks human, not an
elf in front of the PCs' eyes. When the PCs point this out, she
replies that she was cursed by an upper barbarous priest to
look like this.
If Navaria is subjected to [Mana Search] or [Sense Magic],
the PCs will know that the magic aura is palpable on her. This
curse was given to her by malevolent gods and could not be
broken by mortal hands.
Once calm, Navaria asks the PCs, “What are you doing
here?” When they reply that they are lost, Navaria offers to
show them the way out if they pay her a small reward. She
adds, “I've lived here for a long time, and I know the city
reasonably well. If there is anything you need to know, I may
be able to help you.” However, for any help, Navaria asks for
a fee.

(4). H OLE
PCs need to make a Danger Sense check (Target Number
A). If failed, one of the PCs in the lead will step on a piece of
wood placed in the alley and fall into the hole below it. The
depth of the hole is 5 meters. The PC that falls into the hole
receives 15 points of fall damage. This damage can be
mitigated with a Tumble check. A successful Danger Sense
check will reveal the existence of a hole under the plank
before it happens.

(5). T RAMP
PCs meet an old tramp. Refer to “3. Old Tramp”. If the
old man has already given PCs some information, treat this
event as “nothing.”

(6). GET OUT OF THE ALLEY

After 1 tb has elapsed, PCs manage to get out of the alley.
The direction of exit should be randomly determined. If the
destination is a blank Block, the section should be decided. If
the destination is a wall or the sea, then decide again where to
go.

3. OLD TRAMP (+★)

An old tramp, as thin as a dead branch, calls out to the
PCs, “You kind soul, give me some money.” If the PCs give
more than 1 gamel, the old man, who goes by the name of
Morton, will tell them that he used to be a soldier in the
Durlesburg army that attacked the City Of Mist. He then tells
PCs that the barbarous has a secret. He then offers to sell the
barbarous' secret information for 200 gamel.
Morton says, “I looked into this information to take a shot
at them, but I'm getting to be this old now. I'm too old to leave
town anymore, and at this rate, any information I have will be
worthless.”
If PCs pay 200 gamel, he will give them “Important
Information: About “Magic Sword of Red Mist” Kurgaran. 1.
Existence, 2. Location, 3. Effect. 4. Secret” (see p. 105). He
then leaves, saying, “If you ever escape from the city, please
deliver this information to Durlesburg.” PCs will receive ★
only if they get information about the magic sword from
Morton.

 TRICOLORED TENTS
After the alley that led between the buildings is a small
dead-end plaza. The plaza has three tents (red, black, and
blue).
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to enter the red tent, go to “1. Red Tent”.
>If PCs want to enter the black tent, go to “2. Black Tent”.
>If PCs want to enter the blue tent, go to “3. Blue Tent”.
1. RED TENT (+★)
Lamps hang from the ceiling, making it bright inside.
There is a carpet near the center of the tent, and thin smoke
is rising from an incense burner fading above it. The tent is
therefore filled with a sweet aroma. In fact, this smoke has a
hypnotic effect. Once in the tent, the PCs need to make a
Fortitude check (Target Number C). If they fail, they fall
asleep and do not wake up for 1tb. When all the party
members fall asleep, they will wake up to find that all their
money and belongings are gone; if one of them is still awake,
nothing of that sort will happen.
2. BLACK TENT (+★)
Inside the tent are two young men. They look exactly like
twins, and if PCs look closely, they will see that they are both
runefolk. They call themselves Diego and Dario and say they
work for a merchant named Daemon Tamer Zabar.
PCs must make a Danger Sense check (Target Number
16). If successful, they will notice a sign that someone or
something is invisible here. In fact, there are two Godbells
(CR III, p. 397) here, protecting Diego and Dario.
Here PCs can buy all kinds of melee and ranged weapons,
armor, general equipment, mount equipment, accessories,
and magic items. Mucosol Grass is also sold for 100 gamel.
For more information on the effects of “Mucosol Grass,” see
“About Mucosol Grass” (see p. 35). Zabar also sells mounts:
Bohr (see p. 139) for 3,500 gamel, Ox see p. 139) for 12,000
gamel, and Arachne (see p. 139) for 35,000 gamel.
In addition, a broken PC-owned Arachne can be repaired
to perfect condition for 2,000 gamel. The time required for
repair is 1tb. The repair cost of an Arachne is 2,000 gamel,
whether it has zero HP in all sections or is only slightly
damaged.
Loot and items can also be sold here at the base price, with
the loot being sold at its original price and other items and
equipment being sold at a half base price (rounded down).
When PCs buy and sell here, runefolk suggests in unison,
“Now you can become a member of Zabar Merchant
Association by paying 500 gamel. Members receive 10%
Zabar Points for every purchase they make at Blue Tent, and
they can use their Zabar Points to take advantage of the many
benefits our merchant association offers. How about it?”.
If PCs ask about the benefits they get with Zabar Points,
the two runefolk will show PCs a Parchment describing the
“Zabar Points Benefits” (see p. 71).
PCs paying 500 gamels will receive a Zabar Merchant
Association Membership Card. In that case, Diego and Dario
will say, “And please do not enter the red tent. It is dangerous.
If you want to use your Zabar points, please go to the blue
tent. When you enter the blue tent, please show your
membership card to the person in charge.”
If the PCs want a “Slave's Collar,” Diego and Dario will
say, “If you become Zabar's slave, we will put a Slave's Collar
on you, and you will automatically become a member of the
Zabar Merchant Association.” If PCs accept this offer, they
can wear the “Slave's Collar” and receive a Zabar Merchant
Association Membership Card. Runefolk will say, “Please
meet Master Zabar at the blue tent.” However, if PCs are
already a slave of someone else, they cannot become a slave
of Zabar.
PCs will receive ★ only if they receive a Zabar Merchant
Association Membership Card.
Zabar Becomes Keeper
He becomes a keeper only if PCs become Zabar’s slaves.
Thereafter, [53: Tricolored Tents] becomes Base.
Zabar will remove the “Slave's Collar” if the PCs pay 6,000
Zabar points. Zabar points can be earned by accomplishing
Zabar’s Requests. For more information, see “1) Daemon
Tamer Zabar” in “3. Blue Tent”.
3. BLUE TENT
Entering the tent, one comes out into a small space
separated by a curtain. There are two or three boards with the
words “trade common” written on them on the floor.
When the PCs enter the building, a signboard appears
saying, “Please stop,” followed by a signboard that says,
“Please show your membership card.” If the PCs do not show
their membership cards, a slice of wood with the words
“Please leave” will appear. If PCs still try to go, they will be
attacked by an invisible enemy, one Godbell, a daemon who
raised and lowered the signboards as instructed by Zabar. And
it was Godbell's role to repel the insolent people.
1) Daemon Tamer Zabar (+★)
After presenting their membership cards and proceeding
to the back of the tent, they will see a jet-black-colored tabbit,
who is the Daemon Tamer Zabar. PCs will receive ★ only if
they meet Zabar.
69
 There are three Godbells in the room, guarding Zabar,
who has them under his command by means of a certain
magic item. The PCs should make a Danger Sense check
(Target Number 16), and if successful, they can detect the
presence of unseen monsters.
If the PCs become Zabar slaves, he says, “I will remove
your collars in exchange for 6,000 Zabar points per person.
In addition, I can let that person escape from the City Of
Mist”. See “Benefit 6. Escape from the City Of Mist” under
“Zabar Point Benefits” for more information.
If PCs have a Zabar Merchant Association Membership
Card, Zabar will explain the details of Zabar points.
How to earn Zabar Points
• When PCs make a purchase at the Zabar’s tents, they will earn
10% (rounded down) of the price as Zabar points.
• PCs can complete “Zabar’s Requests” and earn Zabar points
instead of being rewarded by gamel.
• When an “item redeemable for Zabar points” is handed over
to Zabar, it earns a predetermined number of Zabar points.
How to use Zabar Points
• PC can select a reward of their choice from the “Zabar Point
Rewards.” And it will cost a specified number of Zabar Points
for them.
If PCs want to get information out of Zabar, he replies,
“Information is a valuable asset. If you want to get it out of
Zabar, you have to exchange Zabar Points”.
The “Zabar Merchant Association Membership Card”
may be owned by any one of the PCs. If “any” of the PCs have
a “Zabar Merchant Association Membership Card,” they can
use the points accumulated on it to gain benefits for all PCs.
If the PCs are honest about their situation and ask for help in
achieving their goal, the following cooperation is promised.
OBJECTIVE 1. GET OUT OF THE CITY
If PCs ask about escaping the city, Zabar will say, “For
6,000 Zabar Points, I can get PCs out of the city in my wagon.
See “Benefit 6. Escape from the City Of Mist” in “Zabar Point
Benefits” for more information.
OBJECTIVE 2. DEFEAT A SPECIFIC MONSTER
If PCs tell Zabar that they want to defeat a particular
“Well-known Monster,” Zabar says he is willing to provide
monster data and location in exchange for Zabar points. See
“Benefit 7: Information on the Well-known Monster” under
“Zabar Point Benefits” for more information.
OTHER OBJECTIVES
Zabar cannot help with anything else.
ZABAR’S REQUESTS
If the PCs ask for more information about the Quest,
Zabar will ask for the Quests in order, starting with Quest 1.
If the party's average level is above the level specified for the
Quest, this Quest will be available even if the previous Quest
has not been completed.
Zabar also promises to pay a reward of either gamel or
Zabar points for each request fulfilled.
70
Quest 1. Obtaining the Sacred Wine of Sacaros
The reward is 500 gamel or 750 Zabar points per person.
Sacred Wine of Sacaros is said to cure all illnesses and is a
popular item. The quest is accomplished by obtaining the
Sacred Wine of Sacaros and delivering it to Zabar. The quest
is completed when PCs get the Sacred Wine of Sacaros and
give it to Zabar, who will reward them with ★.
Quest 2. Obtaining “Dream Drug Sales
Authorization”
This quest is available automatically on average adventure
level 3 or higher.
The reward is 800 gamels or 1,200 Zabar points per
person. A drug called “Dream Drug” is catching on among
the population. This is a good business opportunity. However,
it seems that a “Dream Drug Sales Authorization” is required
in order to sell Dream Drugs. The Quest will be completed if
PCs get the Dream Drug Sales Authorization and give it to
Zabar.
Quest 3. Obtaining “Pilatoto's Codex”
This quest is available automatically on average adventure
level 4 or higher.
The reward is 1,000 gamel or 1,500 Zabar points per
person. Zabar wants to obtain the “Pilatoto's Codex” written
by a Kilhia priest from the Magitech Civilization period. The
quest is accomplished by obtaining the “Pilatoto's Codex” and
giving it to Zabar, who will reward them with ★.
Quest 4. Search for Resistance Organizations
This quest is available automatically on average adventure
level 5 or higher.
The reward is 2,000 gamels or 3,000 Zabar points per
person. Information on organizations that oppose the
barbarous is highly traded in various quarters. The Quest is
accomplished by identifying the bases and leaders of the three
organizations, “Moonlit Wasps,” “Wind Brigade,” and
“Suela's Flame,” and reporting the information to Zabar.
Quest 5. Rescue Sir Delmayle
This quest is available automatically on average adventure
level 7 or higher.
The reward is 3,000 gamel or 4,500 Zabar points per
person. A certain source has asked to rescue Sir Erlane
Delmayle, a nobleman of the Principality of Durlesburg, who
is being held prisoner in [66: Prison]. The quest will be
completed if PCs rescue Sir Erlane Delmayle and bring him
back to Zabar. 3★ will be awarded for completing the Quest
as well as a reward.

it a try and see how much use it can be to me.” Zabar then
asks for the “Red Gem Pendant” that he dropped in [33: River
of Bones], which is glowing like a flashing yellow light inside.
Zabar, however, does not tell PCs exactly where [33: River of
Bones] is, and he says, “You are useless if you can't even find

2) Eating +★
The food is not very tasty, but it satisfies the PCs' hunger
and is enough for one day.
If PCs buy the slave nearby in the dining room an ale, the
slave will thank them and advise them not to stay in the small
room with beds. He says that the innkeeper kills the guests
who stay in that small room with a trap set in the bed and takes
their money and goods.
If PCs try to get other information out of them, the slave
will say, “Let me have something to eat.” If PCs order an
additional meal, they will tell PCs who might know more.
Decide what to order, pay for it, and refer to “Additional
Information in the Inn.”

2. ACCOMMODATION (+★)
If the PCs eat rat meatballs, homemade sausages platter,
or spoiled wine, they need to do Fortitude (Target Number
B). If they fail, they will have an upset stomach and will not
sleep well. Since they will not be able to sleep tonight, calculate
their sleep time as half for recovery of HP and MP.
If PCs stay in a large room with just a few mats on the
ground or a large room with a wooden floor, there is no
danger, but they may not be able to sleep because of the
terrible smell and snoring. PCs will need to make a Willpower
check (Target Number B). Failure to do so should result in
HP and MP recovery, calculated as half the sleep time. This
effect does not stack the penalty for eating rat meatballs,
homemade sausages platter, or spoiled wine.
In other words, sleeping for 6 hours will recover at least
10% of HP and half of MP (all rounded up).

Nothing happens if PCs stay in a small room with a

wooden floor.

If PCs stay in a small room with beds, beds in this room

have a poison stinger trap. This trap is not activated simply by
lying on the bed. The innkeeper will activate the trap in
another room at the appropriate time. The trap can be found
by successfully completing a Search check (Target Number B)
and can be released by successfully completing a Disable
Device check (Target Number B). When the innkeeper
activates the trap, a Spot Trap check (Target Number C)
should be made performed. If successful, the PC notices that
the trap has been activated and rolls off the bed just in time.
Trap deals 1d+1 points of physical damage on activation.
If the Poison Stinger causes more than 1 point of damage, the
PC needs to make a Fortitude (Target Number 11). If they
fail, they are paralyzed for “1d” tb and cannot move. During
this time, the innkeeper will finish off the poor victim and take
all their belongings. If the PC can move freely, the innkeeper
is surprised and apologizes on his knees. He then begs for
forgiveness and refunds the room’s cost. Since the innkeeper
does not have the will to fight, it is up to the PCs to kill the
innkeeper. If they kill the innkeeper, no one will complain.
The next day, the new innkeeper will run the inn as if nothing
had happened.
Only if PCs stay in a small room with a bed, they will get
★.
Translator Note: This trap could be deadly. It is up to the
GM to determine how many rooms/PCs will be affected by
sleeping in such rooms. The room has 2 beds, and when the
innkeeper is activating traps in one room with two PCs, GM
should ask for two checks. Maybe it is a good idea to
foreshadow previous unfortunate events that happened in
such rooms.

 RUINS OF THE TEMPLE OF SACAROS
You see a rotting gate. The gate, made of twisted iron, is
lying on the ground, and beyond them, trees are growing
thickly. Above the trees, the roof of a stone building is faintly
visible.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to enter the temple grounds, go to “1. Trying to
Enter the Temple.
1. TRYING TO ENTER THE TEMPLE
Stepping onto the temple grounds, the PCs find bones
lying at the base of trees in the garden. Some are human
bones, others barbarous. Further on, they find an abandoned
temple building. It looks deserted, but there is no sign that it
has been destroyed by the barbarous. As the PCs put their
hands on the door to enter the temple, they hear a magitech
voice in the garden telling them to wait. When they look, they
see a beautiful naked woman coming out of a tree in the
garden. She is Dryad (CR III, p. 387). The PCs find
themselves surrounded by five Dryads, who warm, “The
temple awaits the Lord's return, but not you.” If they ignore
the warning and attempt to enter, a battle ensues (they are each
enhanced with sword shards).
Dryads can explain that they used to spend nights drinking
and singing with the priests and believers in the temple and
that it was from them that they learned to speak magitech. And
the fairies have continued to protect the temple even after the
barbarous invasion that took away the priests and believers.
Dryads invite the PCs to join them for a feast, as it has
been a long since they hosted one. If the PCs are interested in
joining the feast, see “2. Feasting with Dryads”.
1) Ask about Sacred Wine of Sacaros
When PCs ask Dryads about the “Sacred Wine of
Sacaros,” they will tell PCs that it is in the cellar of the temple.
If the PCs ask, “Can I have some of the Sacred Wine of
Sacaros?” Dryads will tell them that they could have it if they
won a drinking contest with him. See “2. Feasting with
Dryads”.
74
For more information on the effects of “Sacred Wine of
Sacaros,” see “About Sacred Wine of Sacaros.”
ABOUT SACRED WINE OF SACAROS
Sacred Wine of Sacaros is a magical drink made in the
temple of Sacaros, the god of drinking. Sacred Wine of
Sacaros immediately removes any disadvantageous effects the
user suffers from poison, disease, or psychic type, regardless
of its success value.
2) Entering the Temple +★
If there are priests of Sacaros in the party, they will let PCs
into the temple.
Without the priests of Sacaros, the Dryads will refuse to
allow the PCs to enter the temple. If they really want to enter
the temple, they will have to fight the Dryads.
The temple is dusty inside but not destroyed; the
barbarous could not destroy the temple because the Dryads
were guarding it.
No valuable materials were found inside the temple, as
they had already been taken out. However, there is a cellar in
the basement, and the water basin in the back is filled with the
Sacred Wine of Sacaros.
There is one waterskin (five uses) worth of Sacred Wine
of Sacaros in the water basin. Dryads tell PCs that this Sacred
Wine of Sacaros was once awarded to the monthly Sacaros
drinking competition winner.
2. FEASTING WITH DRYADS +★
When PCs agree to join the feast, Dryads are delighted;
out of nowhere, they bring a jar. The jar contains a pot of
strong liquor. This liquor is made from the plants that grow
on the property, which the Priest of Sacaros once told the
Dryads how to make.
1) Drinking Competition with Dryads (+★)
Dryads ask the PCs to do a drinking contest.
When comparing drinks with Dryads, PCs need to make
Fortitude checks (Target Number 15). Those who fail to do
so will get drunk and drop out of the competition. The winner
is the one who succeeds in all five Fortitude attempts.
If one of the PCs wins, the Dryads will give the winner a
waterskin filled with the Sacred Wine of Sacaros (5 uses) that
is stored in a water basin in the cellar.
Dryads will always accept another drinking challenge even
if PCs lose the drinking contest. And even if PCs win the
drinking contest, they will still host a drinking contest anytime
PCs visit here.
Only if PCs win the drinking competition with Dryad and
obtain the Sacred Wine of Sacaros, they will receive a ★. PCs
can win only one Sacred Wine of Sacaros per campaign.
Translator Note: GM should modify the rule in case no
one succeeds five times in a row, or there are several winners.
For example, see “Drinking Competition with Undine” from
Fairy Garden p. 141 to get more ideas on how this contest
could be improved.
 BLOODSTAINED WALLS
A 10-meter-high wall is towering. In front of the wall, many
barbarous, slaves, and vagabonds are gathered, and several
humanoids with their hands tied are suspended from the top
of the wall.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to go to the front of the wall, go to “1:
Bloodstained Walls”.
>If PCs want to see what happens, go to “2: The Criminal to
be Hanged”.
1. BLOODSTAINED WALLS
This wall is the place where those who defy the barbarous
are executed. The criminals are hung from the top of the wall,
and the crowd that has gathered to watch the execution is
forced to throw stones at them. The lower half of the wall is
therefore stained with the reddish-black blood of the
criminals.
While looking at the wall, “2. The Criminal to be Hanged”
occurs.
2. THE CRIMINAL TO BE HANGED +★
The event occurs immediately after arriving at [56:
Bloodstained Walls].
A barbarous executioner appears on the wall with several
criminals in tow. He hangs the criminals and exclaims in
barbaric language what crime each of them has committed.
According to the story, some of them were slaves and hurt
their masters because they hated the way their masters treated
them, and some of them were caught trying to kill honorary
barbarous.
When he finished speaking, the barbarous on the wall
announced, “Now the fun begins. Throw stones as much as
you like, all of you.” Then all the barbarous people start
throwing stones at the hanged criminals. Cries of anguish and
screams echo through the air, and blood splatters on the walls.
If one wants to save the guilty, one must fight not only the
executioner's barbarous but also all the surrounding
barbarous. First, the executioner's barbarous is determined by
the Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122). At this time, the
executioner's barbarous should be treated as the boss.
Next, determine the barbarous in the surrounding area
using the Barbarous Encounter Table. However, the number
should be doubled. When fighting, all of these barbarous will
be enemies. If all of the barbarous are defeated, the criminals
can be saved. Refer to “2) Rescuing Criminals”.
1) Wait for the Night
Crowds are present until “evening.” From “night” to
“dawn,” there is only a barbarous on patrol, and the crowd is
gone. A crowd gathers because they know there will be an
execution. However, at the next tb, they are gone.
If PCs want to rescue the criminals while the crowd is away
and the patrolling barbarous are not looking, they need to
make a Hide check (Target Number B). If anyone fails to do
so, the patrolling barbarous will find them. The barbarous
must be determined by the Barbarous Encounter Table. In
this case, one of the barbarous should be treated as the boss.
If everyone succeeds in the Hide check or defeats the
patrolling barbarous, the sinner can be rescued. See section
“2) Rescuing Criminals”.
2) Rescuing Criminals +★
Rescued criminals must be sheltered somewhere. The
following are the places that shelter sinners: Ariadne in [23:
Prostitute Quarter], Yamur in [32: Yamur's Bar], Ursula in
[36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through the Trees”], the Temple of
Lu Lode in [41: Bandit's Path], Miranda in [42: Cul-De-Sac
Tenement House], or Sandrine Capet at [61: Lighted House].
Among the criminals is a man named Edgar, who is a
human. He is a member of the “Wind Brigade,” an
organization that opposes the barbarous.
If the PCs carry the criminals to the Temple of Lu Lode
at [41: Bandit's Path], Edgar confides that he is a member of
the “Wind Brigade” and thanks the PCs. Treat the fixed
mission “Letting Them Know that Edgar is Safe” (see p. 99)
as having been accomplished. In that case, see “5) Epilogue”
in “Letting Them Know that Edgar is Safe.”
If it is transported to any other location, proceed to “3)
Edgar's Request”.
3) Edgar's Request
Among the criminals is a human man named Edgar, who
confides that he is a member of the “Wind Brigade” and asks
“to inform my friends in Bandit's Path about me.” He is too
deeply wounded to accompany the PCs.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>Head for Bandit's Path
The PCs must go to [41: Bandit's Path] and inform the
“Wind Brigade” associates that Edgar is safe. Refer to the

4) Repeated Executions
After rescuing criminals, the execution is still taking place
if one visits this location; the PCs may rescue the criminals in
the same manner, or they may ignore it and pass by.

 LIGHTED HOUSE
Beyond the garden, surrounded by an iron fence with a
myriad of vicious thorns protruding from it, a small mansion
can be seen. Its windows are lit, and there are signs of people.
A sign reading “Sandrine’s House” in barbaric and trade
common is inlaid on the front gate post.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>To examine the area around the house, go to “1. Check
Around the House”.
>If PCs want to call out from the front gate, go to “1) Front
Gate” in “1. Check Around the House”.
>If PCs want to go around to the back door, go to “2) Back
Door” in “1. Check Around the House”.
>If PCs want to get over the iron fence, go to “1. Check
Around the House”.
1. CHECK AROUND THE HOUSE
The house is surrounded by an iron fence. The height of
the fence is about 6 meters. If the PC tries to climb over the
fence, they must perform a Climb check (Target Number 10).
If the check fails, the PC suffers fall damage of 9 points. This
damage can be reduced by Defense and Tumble checks.
If the check is successful, the fence can be climbed over,
and the property can be entered. Refer to “3) Entering the
Grounds”.
1) Front Gate
The front gate is tightly closed, there are no traps, but it is
locked. There is no doorbell, and no one will come out even
if PCs shout. The PC needs to make a Disable Device check
(Target Number C) to unlock the lock. If they succeed, they
can unlock the door.
2) Back Door (+★)
There is a back entrance at the back of the house. The
back door has both locked and trapped. Next to the door is a
doorbell with a sign that reads, in barbaric and trade common
language, “Please use the doorbell only if you have something
to ask for, but be prepared to die.”
76
The trap can be found by completing a Search check
(Target Number 13) and released by completing a Disable
Device check (Target Number 13). If the door is opened or
the doorbell is rung without disarming the trap, the trap will
be activated.
A poison arrow will fly from inside the fence and hit the
PC near the door. The PC receives a Power 20 + 5 physical
damage if the arrow hits. The Critical Threshold is 10. In
addition, if the arrow causes 1 or more points of damage, the
PC needs to make a Fortitude check (Target Number 14), and
if it fails, it suffers 2d+5 poison magic damage.
After a few moments of ringing the doorbell or opening
the door, a servant will come out of the back door. The
servant then says, “He who rings the doorbell and is alive has
the right to see the master,” and leads the PCs into the house.
The servant should be determined by the “Humanoids
Encounter Table” (see p. 125).
If the PCs have the Key to Sandrine’s House, they can use
it on the keyhole hidden behind the doorbell. In this case, the
back door will open a short time later, and a servant will
appear and invite the PCs in. This allows the PCs to safely
enter the house.
If the PCs have a “Letter of Introduction to Upper
Barbarous” addressed to Sandrine, it is assumed that they also
have the “Key to Sandrine’s House” and are allowed to safely
enter the house.
Only if PCs enter the house in any way, they will earn ★.
3) Entering the Grounds +★
The grounds are a garden. Beyond the garden, a house
can be seen. The construct is in the garden and will attack
anyone who enters the grounds of the pavilion without the
servant's guidance. The construct must be determined by the
“Construct Encounter Table” (see p. 124).
When the construct is defeated, a servant appears and
says, “The master would like to see you,” and leads the PCs
into the house.
2. MEETING WITH SANDRINE +★
Upon entering the pavilion, PCs are taken to the dining
room. After a while, a beautiful and mysterious woman
appears. She introduces herself as Sandrine Capet, the
“Evening Princess,” and says, “It's been a long time since we've
had guests in this house,” and offers the PCs a meal. The meal
is a fine meal, very tasty, not poisoned. Treat it as a full day's
meal.
After the meal, Sandrine asks, “So, what brings you to this
house?” Sandrine will respond to the PCs' request with one
piece of information from “Information Sandrine Knows”.
The PCs must specify the information they wish to know. If
the information is not in the “ Information Sandrine Knows,”
she will reply, “I'm sorry, but I don't know.”
After the dinner, proceed to “1) Sandrine's Lover”.
1) Sandrine's Lover
After the PCs had dinner with Sandrine, over after-dinner
tea, she asked, “Can you do me a favor? One of my slaves
went to [46:Black Hill] and had not come back. Could you
please find him and bring him back?” A slave is a human man,
and his name is Kris. She will pay 500 gamel for each person
who accepts, and if the PCs want, she will give them any
information she knows.
At this time, Sandrine may propose PCs become her
slaves. In this case, she will make all the PCs wear the Slave's
Collar. However, if the PCs have already become someone
else's slaves, they cannot become Sandrine's slaves.
If PCs are Sandrine's slaves, they can stay in this house for
free. However, each time they return to the house, one of
them must donate blood to Sandrine. The PC that donates
blood receives 2d+2 physical damage. The PCs are not
allowed to wear armor during this process and cannot use
Defense to reduce this damage.
If PCs accept the request or become Sandrine’s slave, they
need to go to [46: Black Hill] to find Kris.
If they refused the request, Sandrine would say, “Right.
That's fine then,” she said grimly and quickly kicked the PCs
out of the house.
Sandrine Becomes Keeper
She becomes a keeper only when PCs are Sandrine's
slaves.
Thereafter, [61: Lighted House] becomes Base.
Sandrine promises to eventually remove the Slave's Collar
and allow PCs to escape from the city as long as they fulfill the
work she requests. For more information on Sandrine's
requests, see “Sandrine’s Requests” (see p. 78).

>Find Kris
The PCs must find Kris, Sandrine's slave, and bring him
back safely. Refer to the fixed mission “Looking for Kris” (see
p. 100) in the fixed mission list to proceed with the game.
2) Sandrine's Help
If Chris is brought back safely, Sandrine trusts the PCs.
She then suggests, “Why don't you come work for me?” If the
PCs reveal their goals, Sandrine promises to cooperate with
them. Here is how Sandrine can help with the PCs' objectives.
OBJECTIVE 1. GET OUT OF THE CITY
Sandrine says she knows one way out of the city and will
show it if PCs fulfill her requests.
OBJECTIVE 2. GET IN T OUCH WITH R ESISTANCE
Sandrine says she knows the leader of one of the resistance
organizations, “Moonlit Wasps,” and that she knows the
organization's base. She promises to tell PCs about the leader
of the “Moonlit Wasps” and their base if they fulfill her
requests.
OBJECTIVE 3. L OOKING FOR A M AGIC DEVICE
Sandrine says that she knows that one of the magical
devices made in the time of Magitech Civilization is in the City
Of Mist. Sandrine promises to give PCs information about the
magical device if they fulfill her requests.
OTHER OBJECTIVES
Sandrine cannot help with anything else.
For all intents and purposes, Sandrine hides the PCs in
[61: Lighted House] and promises to take care of their lodging
until they fulfill their purpose.
Sandrine's definition of “working for me” is to fulfill the
tasks she requests. See “Sandrine's Requests” on the next page

Sandrine will ask for the Quests in order, starting with Quest
1. If the party's average level is above the level specified for the
Quest, this Quest will be available even if the previous Quest
has not been completed.
For each request she fulfills, Sandrine will provide one
piece of information from “Information Sandrine Knows”
and pay her some amount of money. The PCs can specify the
content of the information. If the PCs do not specify the
content of the information, it will be determined at random.
Quest 1. Errand to Zabar
The reward is one piece of Information Sandrine Knows
and 200 gamels per person. The quest is completed when the
“Sandrine's Letter” is given to Daemon Tamer Zabar, who
reports to Sandrine. PCs need to show the “Sandrine's Letter”
to Diego and Dario at “2. Black Tent” in [53: Tricolored
Tents], and they will give it to Zabar. PCs will receive a reward
and ★.
Quest 2. Errand to Claire
This quest is available automatically on average adventure
level 3 or higher.
The reward is one piece of Information Sandrine Knows
and 500 gamels per person. PCs need to find the elf Claire,
the “Summer Memories,” and ask her for information about
a magical device called “Light of Shelashis.” The quest is
completed when the information about the “Light of
Shelashis” is given to Sandrine. PCs will receive a reward and
★.
Quest 3. Obtaining the Canal Pass
This quest is available automatically on average adventure
level 4 or higher.
The reward is one piece of Information Sandrine Knows
and 1,000 gamels per person. PCs will need to obtain a Canal
Pass to use the canal in [Fixed Section 3: Jade Tower]. Once
PCs have the Canal Pass and give it to Sandrine, they will
receive a reward and 2★.
Quest 4. Obtaining the Opening/Closing Code for
the Canal Gate
This quest is available automatically on average adventure
level 5 or higher.
The reward is one piece of Information Sandrine Knows
and 1,500 gamels per person. To open and close the canal
gate in the canal, PCs must obtain the “Opening/Closing
Code” for the canal gate. Once PCs have the two
“Opening/Closing Codes” and report them to Sandrine, the
Quest will be completed. PCs will receive a reward and 2★.
Quest 5. Rescue Heine
This quest is available automatically on average adventure
level 6 or higher.
78
The reward is one piece of Information Sandrine Knows
and 3,000 gamels per person. PCs will be asked to gather
information on a girl with crimson hair named Heine, find
her, and bring her to Sandrine. If she is wearing a Slave's
Collar, it is strongly advised to remove it.
Heine is Kris’ sister. The Quest is completed when PCs
bring Heine back to Sandrine's house (without the Slave's
Collar). PCs will receive a reward and 3★.
Quest 6. The Last Request
This Quest will only occur if PCs have completed “Quest
5. Rescue Heine”.
See “Sandrine's Last Request” for more information.
SANDRINE'S L AST R EQUEST
In front of the PCs, Sandrine reveals everything: Chris, the
slave, is her lover, and Heine is Chris' sister, as the PCs already
know. She wants to escape the City Of Mist with them and live
peacefully in the humanoid city.
Because of the requests the PCs have fulfilled so far,
Sandrine has obtained a Canal Pass and two of the three
Opening/Closing Codes needed to open the canal gate. She
says that she knows the third code, which should allow her to
open the canal gate and escape the city. Actually, the final
code is needed to open the canal gate, but Sandrine does not
know that.
Sandrine offers to escort the PCs and exchange a third
Opening/Closing Code. She also says that if the PCs accept
the request, she will give them five treasures from the
Treasures Decision Table:$$$ (see p. 126) as a reward.
If PCs accept this request, go to [Fixed Section 3: Jade
Tower] and refer to 1. Crossing the Canal (see p. 90) to
proceed with the game.
The PCs may suggest other ways to escape the city.
Sandrine will accept one of two options: “Escape by Orzozo’s
Ship” or “Escape by Zabar's Wagon.”
In the case of escaping on Orzozo's ship, Sandrine can
afford the boarding fee for the three of them but not for the
PCs. If the PCs can pay their own boarding fees, they may
escape this way. In that case, see [Fixed Section 1: Port]. Of
course, if Orzozo is not in port, this method will not work.
To get a ride in Zabar's wagon and escape, PCs need Zabar
points. Sandrine can get Zabar points for the three of them
but not for the PCs. If the PCs have already accumulated
6,000 Zabar points, they can escape this way. In that case, see
Benefit 6. Escape from the City Of Mist” (see p. 71) under
“Zabar Point Benefits” in [53: Tricolored Tents].

>To explore the temple grounds, go to “2. Explore the
Temple Grounds.”
1. ENTERING THE TEMPLE
The temple is in ruins, and nothing is to be found.
2. EXPLORE THE TEMPLE GROUNDS (+★)
If PCs want to search all over the temple grounds, they
need to make a Search check (Target Number A). If they
succeed, they will find a shattered statue of Kilhia behind the
temple. If they want to examine the Kilhia statue, they need to
make a Search check (Target Number B). If they succeed,
they will find that the pedestal can be moved. When they
move the pedestal, a stairway to the basement appears. If PCs
go down the stairs, they will find a basement. Refer to “3.
Temple’s Basement”.
Only if PCs find the entrance to the basement do they get
★.
3. TEMPLE’S BASEMENT
The crypt is lined with a number of graves. Apparently,
this is an underground cemetery.
The walls of this room are decorated with iron ornaments
in the shapes of a sword, shield, hoe, staff, book, candlestick,
flower, and mirror.
In addition, four stone statues are enshrined in the inner
part of the room.
The stone statues are, from left to right: a tall man in his
late 20s, a loosely dressed woman in her early 20s, an armor-
clad maiden in her late teens, and a girl in her mid-teens who
has a charming impression.
1) Ghost Riddle
When the PCs enter this basement, Ghost (CR II, p. 346),
a man who seems to be a priest of Kilhia, appears. Ghost
makes the following riddle in magitech.
“Offer to the Hands of the Holy Four Founders. To the
Righteous One, the Righteous Tool. Then I will grant you
divine wisdom.”
This Riddle means to choose the correct item from the
decorations on the wall and have each statue hold it. The PCs
should think of the answer and then refer to the “Answer to
the Riddle of [62: Ruins of the Temple of Kilhia]” (see p. 80).
GM should check the answer first.
If the PCs are having trouble finding answers, the Ghost
will say, “Those who have no knowledge, leave. Gate of
knowledge will remain closed for you”.
2) If the Answer is Incorrect +★
A trap will be triggered if the four stone statues are given
the wrong ornaments. Gas will be emitted from all parts of the
basement. Everyone in the basement needs to make
Willpower (Target Number 13). If they fail, they will be
tempted to read a book. If a character has a book, it will keep
reading for 1tb. PCs who do not have a book lose 2d points
of MP from the pain of not being able to read.
3) If the Answer is Correct
If the correct statue is placed with the correct ornament,
the Ghost will appear and say, “Well done, you have solved
the mystery. Take the Pilatoto's Codex and take over my
research.” The floor in the center of the basement opens, and
a stone pedestal rises up. On the pedestal are six books.
4) Pilatoto’s Codex +★★
Pilatoto's Codex was written by a Kilhia priest of the Al-
Menas period named Pilatoto and consisted of volumes 1 to
6. Volumes 1 through 5 were written in ancient celestial and
arcana, and only the sixth volume, “Commentary,” is written
only in magitech and seems to have been written by Pilatoto
himself.
According to the Commentary, the ancient celestial part is
the Kilhia Book of Languages, and the arcana part is the
interpretation that many researchers have added. The Kilhia
Book of Languages is a riddle, with all the riddles difficult to
understand, such as “I rise in the west and set in the west” or
“The river flows toward the sky as the clouds set in the sea.”
The interpretive part of the researcher's work is an attempt to
find an answer to the riddles. Pilatoto, who declares all these
interpretations to be wrong, apparently has not come up with
the right answer himself. PCs who read these languages can
read what they say but don't know what they mean. This is
because they use a lot of technical terms that only a researcher
would understand.

 ARENA
There is a huge circular building made of stone. You hear
cheers. The building has a sign in barbaric that reads, “Fight!
Kill! And grab the gold!” It seems that this place is an arena.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>To see what's going on, go to “1. Arena”.
>If PCs want to compete in Arena's match, go to “2.
Competing in Match”. However, please also check the Arena
rules.
1. ARENA
As the PCs pass by Arena, the barbarous scout attendant,
with a sly grin, asks, “Are you confident in your skills? It's a
good way to make some money.”
PCs may compete as gladiators in matches held in the
Arena whenever they wish.
Matches in the Arena are starting each tb. They are
entertainment for barbarous, mostly involving humanoids
being beaten to death by barbarous or ferocious monsters. For
this reason, only barbarous or honorary barbarous are allowed
in the audience, and no admission fee is required. In addition,
betting is only conducted among spectators on their own, not
by gladiators.
In City Of Mist, many humanoids, some willingly, some
by force, become gladiators and challenge the Arena.
However, the chances of humanoid survival are low. The
barbarous, who are enthusiastic about this brutal spectacle, are
ruthless against the humanoid victor; if the humanoid survives
against their expectations, the barbarous hope that the victor
will challenge them to another fight. Humanoid gladiators are
thus forced into a series of battles and lose their lives. But if
they are lucky enough to survive, they will be rewarded with
bounty and treasure.
For information on prizes, treasures, and special rules for
Arena, see the descriptions that follow.
80
1) Explanation of Prize Money and “Barbarous
Whims”.
For each match won, each gladiator receives a reward of
“(number of opponents defeated) x2d x 10” gamels and the
treasure specified for each opponent defeated. However, if
the PCs are slaves of the Shepard Don Bucado, only half of
the reward will be received. The other half belongs to Don
Bucado. PCs will still keep all earned treasure/loot.
All of these rewards and treasures are handed over to the
PCs when they finish the match and leave the [63: Arena]. For
this reason, even if equipment or potions are obtained by
winning a match, they cannot be used during a series of
matches.
If the PCs win the match, they may be forced to fight a
series of battles due to “barbarous whims.” Whether or not
the PCs are forced to fight in a series of matches is determined
by the “barbarous whim” check.
The “barbarous whim” check is performed with 2d. If the
PCs are the slaves of the Shepard Don Bucado, they gain a
+1 bonus to 2d. If the roll is lower or equal to the “8 - the
number of consecutive matches”, the next match begins
immediately; the PCs are not given time to rest or the right to
refuse the match. If the roll exceeds “8 - the number of
consecutive matches”, the PCs are given the right to end the
match; if they end the match, they receive their prize money
and treasure and may leave the Arena. If they wish to continue
fighting, the next match begins immediately. No time is given
to take a break.
2) Priests in the Arena
The Divine Magic of the gods from the first sword
Lumiere may be used during the match. The bloodbath of
such a cocky challenger is the pleasure of the barbarous.
3) If the PCs do not have the Equipment
Arena lends equipment to gladiators who do not have it.
The following equipment is available for rent. Borrowed
equipment must be returned after the match.
Equipment for Rent
Each PC can be lent the following equipment
• One B-rated weapon (used, Extra Damage -1)
• One B-rated armor (used, Defense -1, but not
less than 0)
• One of each of the following: Magical
Implement, Holy Symbol, Fairy Tamer's Gem,
Magisphere (small), or a musical instrument.
2. COMPETING IN A MATCH (+★-+★★★(*))
If there is a GM, they should show the “Arena Opponents
List” to the PCs and let them choose their favorite opponent.
However, the only opponents who can be chosen are those
who have not yet been defeated.
If the PCs do not specify an opponent, then it will
automatically be the opponent with the “lowest number of
opponents not yet defeated.”
However, only during the first match as gladiators PCs will
automatically fight “(1) Bloodthirsty Beasts”.
(*): PCs earn a specified number of ★ for each match
won, as specified for each opponent.

SECRET OF THE ARIADNE, THE “DAUGHTER OF THE M OON
Ariadne, the “Daughter of the Moon,” is actually Leanan
Sidhe Assassin (CR III, p. 309). She is an operative sent by
nosferatu to orchestrate the decline of Basilisk's power in the
City Of Mist, to head of the resistance organization, to exploit
people's hatred and hostility toward the barbarous to achieve
her own ends. She will not leave alive those who discover her
true identity; if Ariadne discovers that she has discovered it,
she will try to kill them. She is accompanied by two Lesser
Vampires when she attacks those who learn her secret (CR II,
p. 320).
ANSWER TO THE R IDDLE OF [62: R UINS OF THE T EMPLE
OF K ILHIA]
The four stone statues represent the four founders who
built the City Of Mist during the Magitech Civilization period.
The combination of the stone statues and the four
founders is as follows.
• The stone statue of “a tall man in his late 20s” on the
left is Zoraentes the Strong.
• The second statue from the left, “a loosely dressed
woman in her early 20s”, is the Quick-Witted Selansier.
• The third from the left is a stone statue of “an armor-
clad maiden in her late teens,” Suela the Fierce.
• The fourth from the left, “a girl in her mid-teens who
has a charming impression,” is the Shelashis, the “Loving.”
Each of the four founders should be adorned with specific
to them ornaments. The ornaments to be placed on the
statues are, from left to right, as follows.
• Zoraentes the Strong should have a Shield.
• Quick-Witted Selansier should have a Book.
• Suela the Fierce should have a Sword.
• Shelashis, the “Loving” should have a candlestick.
Only Shelashis is likely to be impossible to guess without
knowing about the Light of Shelashis. Their names can help
if PCs do not know the legends of the Four Founders or the
names of the Four Founders.
If the GM feels that the PCs still lack the information to
solve the mystery, they should advise them of this with the
help of the ghost.
 TEMPLE OF DALKHREM
More than a dozen twisted spires of unequal height tower
up toward the sky. The walls are painted with countless skulls,
and the spaces between the skulls are lined with ribs, femurs,
and other bones. In the opening of the tallest main tower,
there is a huge reddish-bronze double-opening door, about 5
meters high, with the holy symbol of Dalkhrem, the god of
war, reverently displayed above it. This is the Temple of
Dalkhrem.
Now, the double-opening gates are open, and one
barbarous guard stands on each side of it.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to enter the temple, go to “1. Entering the
Temple.
1. ENTERING THE TEMPLE
The barbarous gatekeepers are two Boggart Troopers (CR
II, p. 298). Since both vagabonds and slaves are free to enter
and leave the temple, the PCs are not attacked or blamed for
attempting to enter the temple.
Entering the front door, one finds oneself in a domed
chapel. The interior is dimly lit, with only a few torches.
In the chapel is one Blood Troll (see p. 132), with a
number of barbarous corpses lying around him. In addition,
10 Boggart Troopers and 3 Trolls (CR I, p. 450) are watching
from a distance.
Blood Troll is the bishop of the Temple of Dalkhrem,
Puteute, the “Golden General.” Puteute finds the PCs and
says, “Oh! Are you my new training partners? I just lost my
partner.” It seems that the corpse lying on the floor was his
former training partner.
1) If the PCs have Won a total of 8 or more Games
in Arena
Puteute says, “Mmm? I recognize your faces,” and then
recalls the PCs' exploits in the arena. Then he says happily,
“Just as well. I've been wanting to have hand-to-hand combat
with you.” If the PCs refuse, Puteute refuses to listen. Refer to
“5) Puteute's Training,” and there will be combat.
2) Show “Letter of Introduction to Upper
Barbarous” addressed to Puteute
Puteute reads the letter of introduction and says, “I see. I
see that you are the one Zabar sent to do the training with.
Well, let's get started.” If the PCs refuse, Puteute refuses to
listen. Refer to “5) Puteute's Training,” and there will be
combat.
(3) PCs say “We are not Training Partners”
Puteute looks disappointed and says, “What a bore. Well,
what do you want?” Puteute is not interested in anything other
than fighting, so he simply replies, “Oh, I don't know, I don't
know.” If the PCs leave the temple, they will be able to get out
of it and return to their own life. If the PCs want to leave the
temple, no one will stop them.
4) PCs Attack
A battle ensues if Puteute or any of the surrounding
barbarous are attacked. In addition to the Puteute, 10 Boggart
Troopers and 3 Trolls will join the combat.
5) Puteute's Training +★
The PCs must fight the Puteute. Since this battle is a
training exercise, the surrounding barbarous will not touch the
PCs. Puteute tells the PCs that if they can stand for more than
three moves (rounds), they may call off the training at any
point. If the PCs declare “stop training,” from the 4th round
onwards, Puteute ceases his attack. If the PCs attack again
after Puteute has ceased attacking, Puteute will be enraged,
saying, “You cowards!”. In this case, since it is no longer a
training exercise, all the surrounding barbarous join in, and
the battle resumes. See “4) Attack” for more information on
such combat.
If PCs could survive, Puteute would say, “Mm. I like it.
Here is the reward,” and he pays each person “rounds fought
x 100” gamels. Then he says, “Come back and train with me
again.” The PCs can leave the Temple of Dalkhrem with
Puteute watching over them.
6) If Puteute is Defeated +★★★
If the PCs defeat Puteute, they gain three treasures from
the Arena's Treasure Table (see the previous page) in addition
to the normal loot.
The surrounding barbarous flee in fear of the PCs who
defeated Puteute, allowing the PCs to safely exit the Temple
of Dalkhrem. A week after Puteute is defeated, a new bishop
is appointed. The new bishop is a Blood Troll and should be
treated as a boss. Even if PCs defeat this new bishop, PCs will
not gain the 3★.

 TEMPLE OF BRAGZABAS
In the center of the vast pond sits a revered white stone
structure. The narrow bridge, which runs straight through the
green algae-infested surface of the pond, is also made of pure
white stone. At the entrance of the bridge, there is an iron arch
on which hangs the holy symbol of Bragzabas, the “Goddess
of Decay”.
This is the Temple of Bragzabas in the City Of Mist.
There was no barbarous guard, and only a metal gong was
set beside the pillar of the arch.

>If PCs want to ring the gong, go to “1. Ring the Gong”.
>If PCs want to walk around the pond, go to “2. Walk Around
the Pond”.
>If PCs want to cross a bridge, go to “3. Across a Bridge”.
1. RING THE GONG +★
After ringing a gong, two Sirens (CR II, p. 301) emerge
from the temple. The Sirens fly past the water in the pond and
come to the PCs, who ask in barbaric, “What can we do for
you?”.
1) Buy a Slave's Collar
PCs must be honorary barbarous or a slave to be able to
buy a Slave's Collar”.
When PCs tell them they are here to buy a Slave's Collar,
they ask, “How many do you need?” Sirens ask that the
payment be made in advance of 500 gamels per collar. Once
the payment is made, Sirens return to the temple with the
requested number of Slave Collars and the key to remove the
collars.
2) Meet “Stagnant Poison” Ivan Aivan
When PCs ask to see Ivan Aivan, Sirens reply, “The
Grand Priest does not see anyone. Siren replies, “The bishop
does not see anyone.”
If the PCs show them a Golden Skunk Cabbage, Sirens
take it and say, “Please wait a moment while we go see what
you want,” and return to the temple.
84
If the PCs have a “Letter of Introduction to Upper
Barbarous” addressed to Ivan Aivan, it should be handled in
the same way.
In both cases, Sirens eventually return and say, “Bishop is
going to meet you. Please go around to the back of the temple”
and lead the PCs to the back of the temple. See “5. Back of
the Temple”.
3) Buy Rotten Water of Eight Talons
When PCs ask for Rotten Water of Eight Talons, Sirens
reply, “We do not sell Rotten Water of Eight Talons.” If the
PCs show them the Golden Skunk Cabbage, Sirens accept it
and say, “Please wait a moment so I can ask about your
inquiry,” and return to the temple.
Sirens return and say, “Bishop said he wouldn't mind if we
shared it with you, so we brought it to you. This is the Rotten
Water of Eight Talons. Please take it,” they say, handing over
a small bottle of blue, luminous liquid. Each time the PCs
bring a Golden Skunk Cabbage, they will receive one Rotten
Water of Eight Talons.
For more information on the effects of Rotten Water of
Eight Talons, see “About Rotten Water of Eight Talons.”
ABOUT R OTTEN WATER OF EIGHT T ALONS
Rotten Water of Eight Talons” is magical water produced
in the temple of the goddess of decay, Bragzabas, and is
treated as a potion. A person who drinks the Rotten Water of
Eight Talons needs to make a Fortitude check (Target
Number 18). If the drinker fails, they lose consciousness for
one full day. During this time, they will not be awakened by
any stimuli and will not regain consciousness even with the
[Awaken] spell.
The Rotten Water of Eight Talons is magical water
unknown to the public, and the only few people in the
humanoid community know of its value such as Daemon
Tamer Zabar and Ursula of the Trees. Therefore, if PCs try
to sell it to someone else, they will only get 100 gamels.
2. WALK AROUND THE POND +★
The pond is surrounded by a forest.
Soon after, three Sirens fly toward the temple. They say,
“This is the sanctuary of the temple. No one is allowed to
enter. Please turn back.” If PCs disobey, there will be combat.
In the event of combat, one Siren blows the whistle on
their first turn with Major Action. The barbarous hear the
sound of the whistle, and the barbarous appear from inside
the temple and join the battle with a “Full Move” at the end of
the barbarous side's next turn. The barbarous's
reinforcements come every round unless the PCs turn ends
with no surviving barbarous. GM must roll 1d at the beginning
of the barbarous turn what barbarous's reinforcements will be
using the table below.
Translator Note: This and “1) Battle at the Temple” (see
next page) could be very deadly combat for low-level PCs, so
GM should make PCs aware that much more reinforcements
from the temple are coming. Or at least make them aware of
the Siren’s or Lamia’s monster level.
Table to Determine Barbarous Reinforcements
If the PC's average level is 8 or higher, the 1d roll should
be reduced by -1.
0 1 x Succubus (CR III, p. 305)
1–2 1 x Scylla (CR II, p. 307)
3–4 2 x Lamia (CR I, p. 451)
5–6 2 x Siren (CR II, p. 301)
If the barbarous are completely defeated, if PCs walk
further around the pond, they will reach the back of the
temple. See “5. Back of the Temple”.
3. ACROSS A BRIDGE +★
The bridge extends straight from the shore to the temple.
The distance from the shore to the temple is about 20 meters.
PCs attempting to cross the bridge should perform a
Danger Sense check (Target Number B). If successful, they
will notice the bridge sinking slightly. If the PCs cross the
bridge, the bridge will begin to sink at about the middle of the
bridge.
If PCs want to run across to the temple, they will need to
make check the “Adventurer Level + Agility modifier” (Target
Number 13). If they succeed, they can cross to the temple
safely. They can also return to the shore in the same way.
If they fail, they get stuck in the pond. The pond has a
large number of water plants, which are difficult to swim
through because they get caught in the arms and legs. PCs
stuck in the pond need to make a Swim check (Target
Number 12) and, if successful, swim to either the temple or
the shore. If they fail, they become stuck in the water plants.
They cannot escape on their own; if they remain stuck, they
will eventually drown.
If other PCs want to help, they must perform a Swim
check (Target Number 12) and remove any further water
plants that have become entangled. To remove the weeds,
they need to make a check (Target Number 12) with
“Adventurer Level + Dexterity modifier.” If successful, the
waterweeds will be removed.
The PCs who have had the water plants removed and the
PCs who have come to their rescue will again need to make a
Swim check (Target Number 12) and, if successful, swim to
either the temple or the shore.
The same process is applied when an attempt is made to
cross the pond without crossing the bridge. However, in order
to swim across the pond, the swimmer must succeed twice in
the Swim check (Target Number 12).
If an elf tries to swim across this pond, only one Swim
check (Target Number 12) should also be performed. The
reason is that they must swim without getting caught in the
water plants.
4. ENTERING THE TEMPLE
The temple is built of polished white stone. The double
doors in front are made of steel, but their surfaces are polished
like mirrors. There is no barbarous guard at the entrance. The
doors are solid, unlocked, and not trapped, so if the PCs try
to open them, they will do so without difficulty.
When PCs open the door, they found themself in a
temple. The front of the temple has no walls, and the
beautifully shining Jade Tower stands beyond the green pond
and the black forest. Behind it stands a statue of Bragzabas,
the goddess of decay. Her gaze was so beautiful that PCs could
almost feel their whole being rotting away.
1) Battle at the Temple +★
At first, the chapel is empty. However, as soon as the PCs
enter, the doors on either side open, and three Lamia appear.
Lamia, in barbaric, says, “This is the temple's sanctuary. No
one is allowed to enter. Leave now.” If this is not obeyed, a
battle ensues.
In the event of combat, 1 Lamia blows the whistle on her
first turn with Major Action. Hearing the sound of the whistle,
a barbarous appears from the left and right doors of the
temple. The newly revealed barbarous joins the battle with a
“Full Move” at the end of the barbarous side's turn. The
barbarous's reinforcements come every round unless the PCs
turn ends with no surviving barbarous. GM must roll 1d at the
beginning of the barbarous turn what barbarous's
reinforcements will be using “Table to Determine Barbarous
Reinforcements”.
2) Exploring the Temple +★
If the barbarous are completely defeated, the temple may
be explored.
There is a door on each side of the temple and a number
of rooms in the back. In these rooms are traces of the
barbarous' life, but no one is in them now.
There are two special rooms.
In the room at the far end of the door on the right side,
there are many ready-made Slave's Collars that are not
imprinted with a pattern that identifies the owner. Slave's
Collars are useless by themselves and cannot be sold.
In the room at the far end of the door on the left side is
the Rotten Water of Eight Talons. Currently, 2d Rotten
Water of Eight Talons is stored in this room.
Ivan Aivan is nowhere to be seen, nor is there anything
that looks like his apartment.
The back of the temple can be seen from the inner part of
the temple. At the back of the temple, there are steps leading
down to the shore of the pond, and at the end of the steps,
there is a pier overhanging the pond. There is a small boat
floating on the pond. Someone is lying on the boat, but it is
hard to make out who it is.
If PCs are going out by the pond, refer to “5. Back of the
Temple”.
5. BACK OF THE TEMPLE
Behind the temple are steps leading down to the pond's
shore, with a wooden bridge extending into the green water.
A small boat floats on the pond, and someone can be seen
lying down. Someone is lying on the boat, but it is hard to
make out who it is.
If Siren has guided PCs, she will say, “Please wait here,”
and fly toward the small boat. Then the figure on the boat gets
up and pulls the boat toward the PCs.
If the PCs are not guided by Siren, no change will occur
unless the PCs do something; if the PCs call to the figure in
the small boat loudly, the figure will get up, notice the PCs,
and pull the boat over.
85
1) “Stagnant Poison” Ivan Aivan +★
The man in the small boat is an elf. He looks young but
has an unusual air about him. “Hi, I'm Ivan Aivan, the one
they call the Stagnant Poison. By some twist of fate, I am now
in the service of Lord Bragzabas and am the bishop of this
temple. And you?” The elf inquired.
If the PCs had given Siren the Golden Skunk Cabbage,
Ivan would have had it. Ivan asks, “Where did you get this
flower?” If he answers honestly, Ivan will mumble, “Well, I
didn't know Claire was in such a place,” and then turn to the
PCs and say, “Thank you. I must give you a fair amount of
credit for bringing me this valuable information”. The gratuity
offered by Ivan should be determined by rolling 1d on “Ivan's
Gratitude Table.” Note that Ivan does not have all the items
on “Ivan's Gratuities Chart” in his possession. Even if PCs
defeat Ivan, they cannot obtain all of them.
Ivan's Gratuities Chart
1 Zantetsuken (CR III, p. 210)
2 Champion Loincloth (CR III, p. 214)
3 Goddess's Veil (CR III, p. 219)
4 Cattleya Garland (CR II, p. 185)
5 Night Goggles (CR II, p. 192)
6 Mana Coat (CR III, p. 218)
Thereafter, Undines and the Claire, “Summer Memories”
no longer appear in [35: Deserted Garden]. This is because
Ivan has defeated Undines and captured Claire. Claire is
imprisoned in Ivan's apartment at the bottom of the pond. For
more information on Ivan's apartment, please refer to “3)
Room at the Bottom of the Pond”.
If the PCs do not speak, he says, “Well, that's too bad.”
Then he will lie down on the boat, smell the Golden Skunk
Cabbage, and begin to ponder. After that, he will not respond
to anything PCs say to him.
Ivan is only interested in the Golden Skunk Cabbage and
Claire, and when PCs talk to him about other things, he simply
replies, “Oh,” or “Oh, I see,” as appropriate. After a while, he
would turn the PC away and lie down on the boat again, as if
he had had enough.
2) Battle with Ivan (+★★★)
If the PCs attempt to initiate combat, they need to roll the
Danger Sense check (Target Number 15). If successful, the
PCs detect the presence of someone or something lurking
under the surface of the water nearby. At this stage, the GM
may disclose the Target Number and give a hint as to who or
what may be the enemy.
When the battle begins, 2 x Scylla appear from the water.
If PCs were guided by Siren, 1 x Siren also becomes hostile
and joins the combat.
If Ivan is defeated, the PCs get one of “Ivan's Gratuities”
as loot if they have not already received it. Roll 1d to
determine it. In addition, Ivan has a Water Key.
Only if Ivan Aivan is defeated, PCs gain 3★.
3) Room at the Bottom of the Pond
If PCs want to dive into the pond behind the temple, they
must successfully complete the Swim check (Target Number
7). The bottom of the pond is relatively easy to swim in
because there are few plants in this area.
86
At the bottom of the pond is a small dome-shaped bubble.
This bubble is magical and maintains this shape no matter
what the impact.
This bubble is always guarded by 1 x Scylla. If PCs
approach the bubble, they must fight Scylla.
If Scylla is defeated, PCs can approach the bubbles. The
bubble is about 10 meters in diameter and contains a bed,
desk, and other furniture. If the PCs give Ivan the Golden
Skunk Cabbage and reveal where they found it, Claire will be
imprisoned in this room after one day (6tb) has passed since
they spoke. Claire sees the PCs and asks for help.
To enter and exit the bubble, one needs a Water Key.
Only the person with the Water Key can pass through the
bubble's walls. No water can enter the bubble, and they can
breathe normally and act as if they were on the ground.
If Claire is there, she will tell PCs what happened. Ivan is
an elf who used to be Claire's lover. However, during the
barbarous invasion, Ivan had many of his friends killed, and
out of pain for them, he was seduced by Bragzabas and
became his follower. He has been searching for Claire ever
since.
If PCs want to search a room, they need to make a Search
check (Target Number C). If successful, they will find the
treasure. The treasure must be determined by using the
“Treasure Decision Table: $$$” (see p. 126). In addition,
several other memento objects that Ivan kept with Claire are
found, but none of them have much monetary value. Claire
will take these items.
N OBLEMAN T RAPPED IN [66: P RISON]
In one of the cages, a human is trapped. He is skinny, and
his hair and beard have grown long and wild, but his eyes are
resolute. His clothes are dirty, but they are of high quality. If
PCs call out to him, he identifies himself as Sir Erlan
Delmayle, a nobleman of the Principality of Durlesburg.
If PCs want to open the cage where Sir Delmayle is being
held, they will need to unlock it. To unlock the cage, they must
use the Prison Key or succeed in the Disable Device check
(Target Number 13).
Even if he is rescued, Sir Delmayle is so exhausted that he
cannot stand and must be supported by one of the PCs to
walk. In battle, he is can be targeted by the enemy's attack, but
he himself cannot take any action. However, he will always
succeed in Hide check.
Sir Delmayle has a “Map of the West Coast of the
Razeldawn Continent” sewn on the back of his clothing. If he
is dead, a Search check (Target Number C), will reveal the
map.
For information on how to escape from Prison, see “2:
Inside Prison” (see the next page) in [66: Prison].
 PRISON
A 5-meter high wall surrounds the prison. The wall is
vertical and its surface is smooth, making it impossible to
climb up.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>To enter the Prison, go to “1. Prison’s Gates”.
1. PRISON’S GATES
The high wall surrounding the prison has gates. The gate
doors are locked and trapped. To find the trap, PCs need to
make a Search check (Target Number 13). If successful, the
trap is found.
In order to disarm the trap, a Disable Device check
(Target Number 16) must be successfully completed. The
trap is that if the door is not opened by the correct means, an
alarm will sound. Using the Prison Key, the door can be
opened safely, and the trap will not be triggered.
If the alarm is triggered, the patrolling barbarous will come
to PCs. The patrol barbarous must be determined using the
Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122). At this time, the
average level of the party is treated as 1 higher. In addition,
one of the barbarous characters is treated as a boss.
The key and trap are also active when opening the door
from inside the prison.
2. INSIDE THE PRISON +★
There are several cages in which prisoners are kept. All
the cages are locked. To unlock them, PCs must use the
Prison Key or successfully complete a Disable Device check
(Target Number 13).
If PCs are looking for the cage in which a specific person
is held captive, they need to make a Search check (Target
Number C). If successful, the cage of the target person is
found. However, PCs must roll 2d for each Search check. If
the roll is 6 or less, the PCs encounter a barbarous patrol. See
“1) Barbarous Patrol” for more details. In this case, the result
of the Search check is applied after resolving the encounter
with the barbarous patrol. Note that in Prison, 1tb will elapse
for every two Search checks.
If PCs have searched for the cage of Sir Erlan Delmayle,
see “Nobleman trapped in [66: Prison]” (see the previous
page).
The prisoner can be rescued by successfully completing a
Disable Device check or using the Prison Key to unlock the
cage.
If PCs are trying to escape from prison, whether they have
a prisoner with them or not, they must roll 2d. They will
encounter a barbarous patrol if the roll is 6 or less. See “1)
Barbarous Patrol” for more details.
If no patrol is encountered, the PCs may exit the prison
from the same location from which they entered; once out of
prison, they may move to any adjacent block, and 1tb will
elapse.
If the prisoner is successfully rescued and escapes, refer to
“2) Prisoners”.
1) Barbarous Patrol
The PCs encounter a patrolling barbarous who makes
regular rounds in prison.
The patrol barbarous must be determined using the
Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122). In this case, treat
one among the barbarous as a boss.
The PCs need to make a Danger Sense check (Target
Number = Barbarous Monster Level + 7). If one of them
succeeds, the approaching patrol can be detected.
If PCs detect the approach, they may take cover. If they
do, they must make a Hide check (Target Number =
Barbarous Monster Level + 7). If all the PCs succeed in the
Hide check, they can choose whether to let the patrol pass or
to attack with a surprise attack (barbarous lose initiative and
gain -2 on the first round).
Once PCs have either passed the patrol or defeated the
barbarous patrol, they may continue their search or escape
from the prison. If they wish to continue their search, refer to
“2. Inside the Prison” to continue the game. If they wish to
escape from the prison, they can exit from the same place
where they entered the Prison. Once out of prison, they may
move to any adjacent block, and 1tb will elapse.
2) Prisoners (+★ - ★★)
If the PCs rescue Sir Delmayle, he will hide in [32:
Yamur's Bar] if the PCs already know Balkanas, and Balkanas
will be happy that his master is safe and grateful to the PCs.
Yamur pays 2,000 gamel for each PC on behalf of Balkanas.
Suppose PCs are not acquainted with the Balkanas. In that
case, Sir Delmayle may be sheltered in Ariadne’s hideout at
[23: Prostitution Street], at Yamur at [32: Yamur's Bar], at
Ursula at [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through the Trees”], at
the temple of Lu Lode at [41: Bandit's Path], at Miranda at
[42: Cul-De-Sac Tenement House], and at Sandrine Capet at
[61: Lighted House].
If other prisoners are rescued, they can also shelter them
if they do not know where to return.
PCs will earn ★ if they shelter a prisoner.
If the prisoner is Sir Delmayle, PCs get 2★ instead of ★.

 PORT
It is a port using the river that flows into Lake Chess. Many
ships are moored here, but most of them seem to be
barbarous pirate ships that go out to the open sea from Lake
Chess to plunder. Many slaves are employed to carry cargo.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs Want to Work as a Load Carrier, go to “1. Work as
a Load Carrier”.
>If PCs want to skean to a pirate ship, go to “2. Sneaking into
a Pirate Ship”.
>To find Orzozo, go to “3. Pirate ship “Three-Headed
Golden Dragon”.
1. WORK AS A LOAD CARRIER
Here, PCs can work as load carriers. When PCs carry a
load, 3tb will automatically pass. The PCs are forced to work
for that long. When carrying cargo, PCs get 10 gamels for the
work.
2. SNEAKING INTO A PIRATE SHIP +★
There are a number of pirate ships tied up at the wharf,
and the PCs may infiltrate them if they wish. If they do, they
must perform a Hide check (Target Number A); if one of
them fails, the pirates will find them, and a battle will ensue.
Most of the pirates on the pirate ships docked in this port are
barbarous. Determine the pirates with the “Barbarous
Encounter Table” (see p. 122) and fight them.
If everyone succeeds in the Hide check or defeats the
pirates, they can infiltrate the pirate ship.
1) Beaten Up +★
If PCs are able to infiltrate, they will encounter a pirate
barbarous playing with a human by beating them in one of the
cabins.
The barbarous shall be determined by the Barbarous
Encounter Table (see p. 122). In this case, one of the
barbarous should be treated as the boss.
88
At this stage, pirates' clans are not yet aware of the PCs. If
they want to surprise them, they need to make a Hide check.
The target number for this check is “Barbarous Monster
Level + 7”. In order for the surprise attack to succeed, all the
PCs must succeed in the Hide check.
Once the barbarous are defeated, the person who was
beaten can be rescued. After rescuing the person who was
beaten, refer to “Beaten Person in the [Fixed Section 1: Port]”
(see p. 91).
3. PIRATE SHIP “THREE-HEADED
GOLDEN DRAGON” ( +★★★★)
If PCs are looking for Orzozo, roll 2d. If the roll is 10 or
more, a pirate ship is in the harbor with a statue of a three-
headed dragon attached to its hull. This pirate ship is the
“Three-Headed Golden Dragon.” If PCs ask captain, Orzozo,
he will can PCs to Kashkarn on his ship.
If the PCs have selected “Get a boat ride to Kashkarn” in
[Introduction 2: Request], then Orzozo must be here if PCs
come to [Fixed Section 1: Port] between 30 and 33 days after
escaping from Prison.
The procedure for boarding the Orzozo is as follows.
1) Get a Letter of Introduction to Orzozo
If PCs have a “Letter of Introduction to Orzozo” provided
by Ariadne, Orzozo will send all the PCs to Kashkarn with just
one letter of introduction.
2) PCs chose “Get a boat ride to Kashkarn”
When PCs are captured in prison at the beginning of
[Introduction 2: Request] and choose “Get a boat ride to
Kashkarn,” Orzozo will send everyone to Kashkarn for free
(between 30 and 33 days after escaping from Prison).
3) Pay a Shipping Fee Equivalent to 5,000 Gamels
For every 5,000 gamels paid, one person is sent to
Kashkarn. Payment may be made by loot or items. However,
items are determined by half of the base price (rounded up).
Orzozo agrees to send PCs to Kashkarn, so they can
escape the City Of Mist.
After escaping the City Of Mist, refer to “1. Escape by
Orzozo’s Ship” (see p. 93) in “Endings.”
 SCREAMING GATES
• Only one side of the gate is open from “morning” to
• A group of armed barbarous leaves just before the gates close
There is a huge reddish-black colored gate. It is said that
once you enter the City Of Mist, you will never get out alive.
Legends say that the gates’ surface is painted with the blood of
Durlesburg soldiers who attacked the city and were defeated.
It is called Screaming Gates because the sound of opening and
closing the gate sounds like a scream.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>To see the gates, go to “1. Screaming Gates”.
>If PCs want to break through the castle gates, go to “1.
Screaming Gates”.
>If PCs want to watch/monitor the gates, go to “2. Watching
the Gates”.
1. SCREAMING GATES
The gate is about 20 meters high, thick and strong. The
mechanism that opens and closes this gate is located in the
towers on either side.
To move, these mechanisms must be powered by 10
magisphere (large) each. In the left and right towers, there is a
1 x Caesarscorpion (CR II, p. 304), and each is accompanied
by 10 x Androscorpions (CR II, p. 297) to move the
mechanism that opens and closes the gate. In addition, the
perimeter of the gate is guarded by a number of barbarous.
If the PCs attempt to break through the gates, the GM or
player reading this must let them know that it is extremely
dangerous. If they still try to break through, PCs will be killed
without checks or fighting.
2. WATCHING THE GATES +★
In front of the gate is a plaza surrounded by buildings.
If PCs want to examine buildings, they need to make a
Search check (Target Number B). If successful, they will find
an unoccupied building where they can watch the gate.
If the PCs have received “ Quest 1. Gathering Information
about the Screaming Gates” (see p. 56) from “The Sea
Breeze” Tohotel, they have been told about the building
where the watchman is located and can find it without having
to do a Search check.
If PCs watch the gate, they have to roll 2d for each 1tb
watching. If the roll is 6 or less, there is a chance that the
barbarous patrollers will find them. All PCs need to make a
Hide check (Target Number A). If any one of them fails, he
or she will be found. If they are found, the barbarous will
attack the PCs to capture them; the barbarous must be
determined using the Barbarous Encounter Table (see p.
122). In this case, one of the barbarous is treated as a boss.
If PCs keep watch at the gate for one day (6tb), they will
learn the following. If PCs are on watch at the request of the
Tohotel, this information can be obtained from the watchmen
who take turns.

side is opened, the left side is opened, and so on.
in the “evening” and returns just as the gates open in the
“morning”. This group of barbarous is not inspected.
3. TAILING A GANG OF BARBAROUS +★
If PCs are following a group of armed barbarous, they will
arrive at a square a short distance from the gates. Here, the
barbarous disperse.
PCs must make a Search check (Target Number B) and,
if successful, find an unoccupied building suitable for keeping
watch over this square. If they keep a lookout, they will be able
to see the barbarous gathering and forming a line at “dawn.”
PCs can join this group by disguising themselves as
barbarous or by shapeshifting. To disguise, each PC must
make a Disguise check (Target Number 14). If successful,
they will not be detected.
If they fail and are detected, they will be surrounded by a
large number of barbarous and beaten to a pulp. Barbarous
must be determined by the Barbarous Encounter Table (see
p. 122). At this time, the average level of the party is treated as
1 higher. Furthermore, the number of barbarous should be
multiplied by 5.
GM should be warned that the number of barbarous is
quite large, and the possibility of being killed is extremely high
once their disguise is discovered.
However, if they are not spotted, they can escape the city
by blending in with the barbarous group. Outside the city, the
PCs sneak away from the group of barbarous by making a
Hide check (Target Number 15).
If unsuccessful, the PCs are noted by other barbarous and
must return to the queue. The next “morning,” the PCs return
to [Fixed 2: Screaming Gates] in vain.
If successful, the PCs can leave the barbarous group
without being detected; the PCs have finally escaped from the
City Of Mist. See “3. Escape from Screaming Gates” (see p.
93) in “Endings”.

 JADE TOWER
A canal, perhaps 10 meters wide, lies in front of you. The
water was stagnant and dirty. The smell of rotting water
irritates your nostrils. Several small boats are tied up on the
banks of the canal, and a barbarous lookout stays beside them.
Across the canal rises a beautiful green tower, the “Green
General” Yahakkazesh, the Jade Tower that dominates the
City Of Mist.
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>If PCs want to cross the canal, go to “1. Crossing the Canal”.
1. CROSSING THE CANAL
The canal is stagnant and has no current. It is only about
10 meters wide. Therefore, it looks easy to swim across the
canal. In fact, if PCs want to swim across, they must succeed
in the Swim check (Target Number 7). In reality, however, the
barbarous guards will not allow them to do so. Also, there are
many barbarous guards on the shore on the Jade Tower side.
1) Barbarous Watch (+★★)
The two watchmen here are Lizardman Mariners (CR III,
p. 301). Both of these Lizardman Mariners should be treated
as bosses.
If PCs ask the barbarous guard to let them use a small
boat, they will be asked to show them their Canal Pass. PCs
need a Canal Pass to cross the canal. These Lizardman
Mariners do not accept bribes. Even upper barbarous will be
prevented from crossing the canal unless they show their
Canal Pass.
If the PCs are trying to defeat the Lizardman Mariner and
cross the canal by swimming, then on their first turn, one
Lizardman Mariner blows the whistle with the Major Action.
The GM must use the Barbarous Encounter Table to
decide which barbarous will gather at each barbarous turn (see
p. 122). The assembled barbarous join the battle with a Full
Move at the end of the barbarous turn.
The combat ends if there are no surviving barbarous at the
end of the PCs’ turn. At this time, no more barbarous will
come.
Only if the barbarous are completely defeated, PCs 2★.
90
2) Show Canal Pass
If PCs show barbarous a Canal Pass, the Lizardman
Mariners will provide a small boat for the PCs. The
Lizardman Mariners will make sure that there are enough
boats to accommodate the PCs and their allies.
Using a small boat, PCs can travel to the four blocks
adjacent to [Fixed Section 3: Jade Tower] and to the artificial
island where the tower is located. This travel will cost 1tb.
3) About Flying
If PCs try to cross the canal by flight, they will be hit by
magic from the Jade Tower. This attack will inevitably kill
PCs.
If anyone tries to fly, Lizardman Mariners will warn them.
4) Canal Gate
As PCs follow the canal toward Lake Chess, they will see
a canal gate. The gate separating the canal from Lake Chess is
made of solid metal refined with Magitech Civilization-era
technology and cannot be destroyed.
The sluice is currently closed. Three Opening/Closing
Codes must be entered on the control panel made of silver
crystal by the side of the gate to open the sluice. If PCs know
the Opening/Closing Code, see “Entering the
Opening/Closing Codes for the Canal gate.”
E NTERING THE OPENING/CLOSING CODES FOR THE CANAL
GATE
To open or close the canal gate, it is necessary to enter the
Opening/Closing Code on the silver crystal board beside the
gate. To enter the code, PCs need simply to write the
Opening/Closing Code on the silver crystal board with their
fingers. However, the Opening/Closing Code must be written
in magitech characters.
The silver crystal board is divided into nine 3x3 squares,
and a single number is written on each square. The three
Opening/Closing Codes are “First Opening/Closing Code:
438”, “Second Opening/Closing Code: 951”, and “Third
Opening/Closing Code: 276”.
PCs have to write in the squares of the silver crystal board:
438
951
276
When the Opening/Closing Codes are entered, the
numbers entered float as they are, and the message “Please
enter the final code” appears.
To open the canal gate, a final code must be entered. The
final code is a two-digit number. Note that the GM should
refer to “Important Information: About the Canal Gate” (see
p. 105) to confirm the answer. Go to “Entering Final Codes
for Canal Gate” (see the next page).
 E NTERING F INAL CODES FOR CANAL GATE
The final code is “15”. The sum of the three numbers in
all columns, vertically, horizontally, and diagonally, is 15.
By pressing the numbers displayed on the silver crystal
control panel in the order of “1” and “5,” the canal gate slowly
opens.
To proceed to “4. Escape from the Canal Gate” (see p.
93) in “Endings.”
5) Activation of Light of Shelashis
An open gate can be easily closed by a lever on the
opposite side of the gate.
If the canal gate is left open, the flow of water poured into
the canal will eventually flow down to the basement of the Jade
Tower, where it will feed a magical device installed there.
When enough water power is applied, the magical device will
be activated, and the Light of Shelashis streetlights throughout
the city begin to shine brightly. These lights have the power to
dispel soulscar. While the Light of Shelashis is active, anyone
in the City Of Mist receives a penalty modifier equal to their
soulscar level to all checks.
The Light of Shelashis disrupts the City Of Mist for a time
but is recovered in about two days by “Green General”
Yahakkazesh. Yahakkazesh then destroys all the Lights of
Shelashis.
2. JADE TOWER
The Jade Tower soars high into the sky through the city
sky's mist. The tower stands on an artificial island surrounded
by canals and guarded by numerous barbarous.
1) Entering the Tower
At first glance, no doors or openings on the tower appear
to be entrances or exits.
2) Barbarous Guards
There are always a large number of barbarous around the
tower. Barbarous will attack the PCs on sight, no questions
asked.
Combat with the barbarous should be decided by rolling
1d and using the “Barbarous Around the Tower”. At this time,
barbarous marked with the (!) mark should be treated as a
boss.
There are no shadows around the tower to hide in.
Therefore, it is not possible to hide from the barbarous
guards.
The tower can be searched to find the entrance if the
barbarous are defeated. To find the entrance, PCs need to
make a Search check (Target Number 15). If successful, they
will find the hidden entrance. Refer to “3) Entrance to the
Tower”. However, each time PCs perform a Search check,
they will encounter a barbarous guard. Only if they find the
entrance to the tower, they can enter the tower before the
barbarous guards find them.
3) Entrance to the Tower +★★
With a bang..., the jade jars into a part of the wall. A square
entrance appears.
If PCs want to enter the tower, refer to “3. Inside the
Tower”.
3. INSIDE THE TOWER
The GM is free to create the interior of the tower.
However, the whereabouts of several named barbarous
have been determined. In addition, a magical device is hidden
in the tower's basement that activates the Light of Shelashis.
With these facts in mind, we offer some rough guidelines for
GMs. If you are playing solo, you can instead just challenge
the upper barbarous at each layer.
The interior of the tower is divided into five main layers:
the Lowest Layer, the Underground Layer, the Bottom Layer,
Middle Layer, and the Top Layer.
1) Bottom Layer of the Tower
Entering the tower from the entrance, PCs will find
themself on the tower's lower level. In the lower level, there
are usually barbarous monster level 6 to 8 patrolling the layer.
There are no well-known barbarous here.
From the lower levels, PCs can move to “2) Underground
Layer of the Tower” and “4) Middle Layer of the Tower”.
2) Underground Layer of the Tower (+★)
The tower's basement is roamed by monsters of monster
levels 7 to 10. Barbarous do not often enter the layer; instead,
there are many mythical beasts and constructs.

2 x Androscorpions (CR II, p. 297)

91
 Here lives Gad Bodek, the “Thousand Roars” (Chimera
(CR II, p. 385)). If PCs defeat Gad Bodek, they will receive a
Silver Crystal Plate in addition to the normal loot. Only if PCs
defeat Gad Bodek, they will receive ★.
From the underground layer, PCs can move to “1) Bottom
Layer of the Tower” and “3) Lowest Layer of the Tower”.
3) Lowest Layer of the Tower (+★★)
The tower's lowest level is roamed by monsters from levels
9 to 12. Barbarous come here not often; instead, there are
many undead and constructs. There is also a huge cavity here
with a magical device to activate the Light of Shelashis. After
1tb has passed since the opening of the canal gates, the rising
water level of the canal causes water to flow through part of
the cavity walls. The water that flows in is stored in the magical
device, and after one day (6tb) has passed, it activates the
device. The activation of the magic device supplies the Lights
of Shelashis, and they begin to shine brightly across the city.
Ondine (Hercules (see p. 132)), the “Queen of Sewage,”
lives here accompanied by the undead with a torch. The
undead must be determined by using the Undead Encounter
Table (see p. 123). In this case, the party's average level should
be treated as one level higher.
She indiscriminately attacks and eats anyone who intrudes
into the lowest layer. However, if PCs are wearing the
“Madame Hedron's Ring,” which is possessed by her
subordinate Madame Hedron, PCs will not be attacked
unexpectedly.
If the PCs wear the Ring of Madame Hedron and attack
Ondine, she is automatically taken by surprise.
If PCs defeat Ondine, they will get a “Map of the City Of
Mist” in addition to the normal loot. If PCs get the “Map of
the City Of Mist,” they must immediately determine the
section of all the blank blocks. If PCs have this map, treat it as
completed for the achievement of “3. Create a Map of City Of
Mist” in [Introduction 2: Request]. Only if Ondine is defeated
PCs will receive 2★.
PCs can move to the “2) Underground Layer of the
Tower” from the lowest layer.
4) Middle Layer of the Tower (+★★)
In the tower's middle layer, there are monsters level 9 to
12 roaming about.
In the middle level, there is a tabbit artificer and conjurer
called “Grave Robber” Mugido (Lesser Vampire (CR II, p.
320)). Mugido can use his magitech to perform magic
transformations on the bodies of the dead and bring them
back to life. He uses corpses purchased by his men from the
city as test subjects, and performs magic transformations on
them every day.
92
Mugido is a Lesser Vampire and a priest of the Metissier,
the god of immortality. Therefore, there is a temple of the
Metissier on the middle floor and a few nosferatu.
Only if Mugido is defeated, PCs will gain 2★.
From the middle level, PCs can move to “1) Bottom Layer
of the Tower” and “5) Top Level of the Tower”.
5) Top Level of the Tower (+★★★)
At the top of the tower are monsters of levels 10 to 15,
many of them barbarous, but some are mythical beasts or
undead. There are also constructs and daemons that are used
as guards.
On the top floor is the throne room, decorated with jade
statues of numerous boys and girls. From there, the city is
hidden under a foggy mist, so it does not look very bright.
Instead, PCs can see the Bloody Mountains and the high
peaks of the Dragon Spear Mountains.
And on this throne sits “Green General” Yahakkazesh.
On his waist, he always carries the “Magic Sword of Red Mist”
Kurgaran. Even today, he spends his time bored. Until the day
he gets tired of the throne.
Only if Yahakkazesh is defeated, PCs will gain 3★.
PCs can move to the “4) Middle Layer of the Tower” from
the top level.
B EATEN P ERSON IN THE [F IXED SECTION 1: P ORT ]
The man who was beaten was a human man. He thanks
the PCs and calls himself Balkanas, a servant of the nobleman
Sir Erlan Delmayle of the Principality of Durlesburg. Sir
Delmayle, under the command of Princess General
Magdalena Yates of the Principality of Durlesburg (see CR II,
p. 242), was surveying the western coast of the Razeldawn
Continent when he was attacked and captured by pirates.
Balkanas, who accompanied him on the voyage, was also
captured at some point and brought to this city.
Balkanas inferred from the stories of the barbarous that
Sir Delmayle was imprisoned in [66: Prison] because he was
an enemy nobleman. Apparently, barbarous are trying to
learn about his secret mission.
Balkanas begs the PCs, “Please. Please save my master”.
Note that Balkanas knows Yamur and asks him to shelter him
at [32:Yamur's Bar].
Balkanas asks the PCs to escort him to [32: Yamur's Bar].
If PCs accept Balkanas’ request, they must take him with them
to [32: Yamur's Bar].
PCS’ N EXT M OVE?
>Head to Yamur's Bar
The PCs must deliver Balkanas safely to [32: Yamur's
Bar]. Refer to the fixed mission Escort Balkanas (see p. 100)
in the fixed mission list to proceed with the game.
 ENDINGS
1. ESCAPE BY ORZOZO’S SHIP
The Three-Headed Golden Dragon, the pirate ship of
Orzozo the Blue Butcher, carrying the PCs, will sail down
the river from Lake Chess and out into the open sea. In a
few days, the city of Kashkarn will be visible under the azure
sky. At last, they have succeeded in escaping from that
dreaded city!
Just as the PCs were patting their chests in relief from
the depths of the ocean, the last of their enemies rose
ominously to the surface of the ocean.
Using the PC's average adventure level, the last enemies
should be determined by referring to the “Ending Enemy
Decision Table/Enemies at Sea” (see p. 126). If there are
more than 5 PCs, add 1 x Sea Serpent (CR III, p. 330).
Also, all the last enemies should be to be treated as bosses.
Numerous other enemies also will appear, and Orzozo and
the other pirates will be busy fighting them.
The PCs will somehow overcome this peril if the last
enemy is defeated. After a few days, they finally arrive in
Kashkarn. Proceed to “5. Return to Kashkarn”.
2. ESCAPE BY ZABAR’S WAGON
The wagon carrying the PCs safely exits Screaming
Gates, the shadow of the City Of Mist gradually fading into
the distance beyond the reddish-brown horizon. It was then
that the PCs finally realized that they had succeeded in
escaping from that dreaded city. As the PCs rejoice, the last
of their foes appear, as if they had been waiting for them.
Using the PC's average adventure level, the last enemies
should be determined by referring to the “Ending Enemy
Decision Table/Enemies on Land” (see p. 126). If there
are more than 5 PCs, add 1 x Wyvern (CR III, p. 374).
Also, all the last enemies should be to be treated as bosses.
Numerous other enemies have appeared, and the guards
hired by Zabar are busy fighting them.
The PCs will somehow overcome this peril if the last
enemy is defeated. After a few days, they finally arrive in
Kashkarn. Proceed to “5. Return to Kashkarn”.
3. ESCAPE FROM SCREAMING GATES
As the barbarous group moved away and disappeared
behind the foggy lake, the PCs knew that they had finally
escaped from the dreaded City of Mist.
However, this was not the end. Just as the PCs were
about to take the first step toward their return, an ominous
monster appeared out of the mist that enveloped the
lakeside.
Using the PC's average adventure level, the monster
should be determined by referring to the “Ending Enemy
Decision Table/Monsters by the Lake” (see p. 126). If
there are more than 5 PCs, add 1 x Jack O'Lantern (CR II,
p. 351). Also, all the last enemies should be to be treated as
bosses.
If the PCs defeat the lakeside monsters, they will
somehow overcome this peril. If the GM is present, they
can create a scenario of the journey to Kashkarn and play
with it. If you are a solo player, it is assumed that you have
arrived in Kashkarn after about a month of arduous travel.
Once PCs have returned to Kashkarn, proceed to “5.
Return to Kashkarn”.
4. ESCAPE FROM THE CANAL GATE
When the canal gate opens, clear water flows into the
canal from Lake Chess, and the PCs maneuver their boats
out of the canal and into Lake Chess. Once sufficiently far
from the City Of Mist to land, the PCs crossed the misty
lake, mindful of the presence of the barbarous patrol
guarding Lake Chess. When the shoreline they were
aiming for came into view through the mist, the feared
enemy appeared in their path: the barbarous patrol
guarding Lake Chess. Using the PC's average adventure
level, the monster should be determined by referring to
“Ending Enemy Decision Table/Upper Barbarous by the
Lake” (see p. 126). If there are more than 5 PCs, add 1 x
Lizardman Mariner (CR III, p. 301). Also, all the last
enemies should be to be treated as bosses.
If Sandrine and her party are accompanying PCs, only
Sandrine will participate in the battle, so she should be
counted towards the number of people. In this case,
Sandrine should be controlled by the PCs.
The PCs will somehow overcome this peril if the last
enemy is defeated. After a few days, they finally arrive in
Kashkarn. Proceed to “5. Return to Kashkarn”.
5. RETURN TO KASHKARN
Finally, the PCs arrive in Kashkarn. The people of
Kashkarn greet the PCs with surprise upon their return
from the barbarous-controlled City Of Mist, where they
were summoned by Princess General Magdalena Yates
(see CR II, p. 242) to provide various information about
the City Of Mist. If they have started their adventure with
[Introduction 2: Request] and have fulfilled Barkman's
orders, they will receive 50,000 gamels and 1000 reputation
points as a reward.
Magdalena invites the PCs to join the Principality of
Durlesburg Army. She wants them to participate in the
upcoming operation to retake the City Of Mist. It is up to
the PCs to accept this invitation. If they accept Magdalena's
invitation and join her in recapturing the City Of Mist, they
will have to return to the city again.
Alternatively, the PCs may decline Magdalena's
invitation and choose to live as adventurers.
In any case, the PCs' adventure is not over yet. The next
adventure awaits the PCs.

When the PCs arrive at [41: Bandit's Path], they can
immediately go to [2. Melchior's House], but Melchior is not there.
His sister Moulin tells the PCs that he has gone to [13. Drug Den].
He has gone to bring back a friend of his who has been addicted to
drugs. Melchior is worried about him because it's a dangerous place,
so he asks her to pick him up if she can.
Determine the block of [13: Drug Den] and fill it on the map.
If the PCs do not pick up Melchior, he will be killed by the
barbarous and never return, and the PCs will have to find a way to

FIXED MISSION “RECOVER LOST ITEM”
1) MISSION OVERVIEW
PCs received this mission from Zabar. The mission is
accomplished by going to [33: River of Bones], retrieving the “Red
Gem Pendant,” and taking it back to [53: Tricolored Tents]. First,
PCs need to find [33: River of Bones]. The mission begins at [53:
Tricolored Tents]. The mission starts in the “morning.”

3) E VENTS ALONG THE WAY
Event 1: Children Pickpockets +★
Until PCs acquire a ★, if they ask anyone where [33: River of
Bones] is located, they will reply, “I don't know such a place.” This
event 1 will occur immediately after obtaining one or more ★.
PCs encounter vagabond children. The children are
pickpockets. One randomly selected PC needs to check Danger
Sense (Target Number B). On success, the pickpocket is noticed
and caught. If the check fails, children pickpocket all gamels on that
PC. If they have no money, the pickpocketed PC will randomly lose
one item. This does not include equipped items and ammunition
but does include herbs and medicines. If PCs capture children, they
will tell them the location of [33: River of Bones] on the condition
that they don't kill them and instead let them go. Determine block
for [33: River of Bones] and fill on the map.
94
4) CLIMAX
The event occurs immediately after arriving at [13: Drug Den].
Melchior, carrying a man he seems to know, is chased by a
barbarous. Barbarous also attacks the PCs if they do help Melchior.
Barbarous should be determined by the “Barbarous Encounter
Table” (see p. 125), and the PCs must fight the barbarous. One of
the barbarous should be treated as a boss.
5) E PILOGUE
When the PCs tell Melchior what happened, he will say, “You
saved my life. Besides, you are from Mr. Yamur. I trust you.” He
then takes the PCs back to [41: Bandit's Path] and leads them to the
Temple of Lu Lode, which is hidden in the basement. From then
on, refer to “3. Temple of Lu Lode” (see p. 55) in [41:Bandit's Path]
to proceed with the game.
6) R EWARDS
Melchior pays 200 gamel per person as a reward.
Event 2: Letting the Children Go
After meeting the children, if PCs ask someone for the location
of [33: River of Bones], they will tell them if they pay 5 gamels (or
one item with a base price of 5 gamels or more). Determine block
for [33: River of Bones] and fill on the map.
4) CLIMAX
An event occurs immediately after the PCs enter the [33: River
of Bones]. Skeletons (CR I, p. 463) appear and attack the PCs.
There are twice as many skeletons as there are PCs. One of the
Skeletons has red eyes and wears a “Red Gem Pendant.” It should
be treated as a boss. The River of Bones has a unique skill that
affects combat. For details, see [33: River of Bones].
5) E PILOGUE
A “Red Gem Pendant” will be obtained as loot when the red-
eyed skeleton is defeated. When PCs take it back to [53: Tricolored
Tents] and give it to Zabar, he will be satisfied, “Yes. Here it is.
Thank you very much. It seems you can be of some use”.
Thereafter, refer to “3. Blue Tent” (see p. 69) in [53: Tricolored
Tents] and proceed with the game by referring to Zabar's request
and the use of Zabar's points.

Quarters]. The mission starts in the “morning.”
2) B LOCK D ETERMINATION
Determine blocks for [22: Open-air Market] and [63: Arena]
and fill them on the map.
3) E VENTS ALONG THE WAY
This event occurs when PCs try to travel from [24:Gladiators'
Quarters]. Suddenly, a white fog covers their field of vision.
PCs need to make a Danger Sense check (Target Number B).
The failed PC falls into a cesspool of manure, which smells so bad
that even barbarous frowns. Thereafter, the PC receives a -4 penalty
on the Hide check for 6 tb. That smell can be washed away with a
waterskin of clean water.
FIXED MISSION “FIND URSULA”
1) MISSION OVERVIEW
PCs receive a mission from Barkman or Miranda. The
mission would be accomplished if PCs could meet Ursula of the
Trees. However, in order to do so, PCs must first find out the
location of Ursula's clinic [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through the
Trees”].
The client will be Barkman if the mission is received under
“1: Investigate the magic device” in [Introduction 2: Request], and
Miranda if the mission is received under “3. Ursula of the Trees”
in [Introduction 3: Home].
The mission starts at [66: Prison] if the client is Barkman and

Event: Encounter with Grassrunner +★
A lone Grassrunner speaks to the PCs. The Grassrunner
introduces himself as Nils and says, “Hey, buddies. You don't
seem like a native of this district. What are you doing here?”
When they tell him that they are looking for Ursula, he tells them
the location of [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through the Trees”].
4) CLIMAX
This event occurs immediately after arriving at [63:Arena]. Don
Bucado welcomes the PCs and says, “I have prepared a special
partner for you. Good luck.” The opponent is “(3) Ga Zom, the
“Butcher” and his gang “ from Arena Opponents List (see p. 80).
For details, see [63: Arena]. However, only this time, even if PCs
win the match, they will not be forced to fight again due to the
“barbarous whims.” The match will always end with only one round.
5) E PILOGUE
After winning the match, Don Bucado, who was watching the
game, says, “Well done. You did very well. I'm looking forward to
seeing how you fight in the future”. Don Bucado then returns to [24:
Gladiators' Quarters] with the PCs.
Thereafter, refer to “2. Visiting Don Bucado” (see p. 41) in [24:
Gladiators' Quarters] and proceed with the game.
6) R EWARDS +★
Don Bucado will give each PC 150 gamels, half of the prize
money, as well as the treasure won. If PCs have not yet decided on

Table: $” (see p. 126).
Determine the block of [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through the
Trees”] and fill it on the map.
If the PCs do not tell that they are looking for Ursula, they will
not be able to get the location of [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight
through the Trees”] from Nils. Thereafter, roll 1d when gaining a
★. If the result is 4-6, the first blank Block they move to after that
will automatically become [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight through the
Trees”].
4) CLIMAX
Immediately after arriving at [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight
through the Trees”], an event occurs. Barbarous attacks
humanoids and catch them. Barbarous also attacks the PCs.
Barbarous should be determined by the Barbarous Encounter
Table (see p. 122) and must be fought. In this case, one of the
barbarous is treated as the boss.
5) E PILOGUE
After defeating the barbarous, a dwarf woman comes and
thanks them. She is Ursula, and when the PCs explain the
situation, Ursula suggests they can stay at her house if they help
her with her work while searching for the magic device. For more
information on the work, see “3: Plaza surrounded by buildings”
and “Quests from Ursula” (see p. 51) in [36: Sanatorium “Sunlight

3) E VENTS ALONG THE WAY
Event 1: Misty (+★)
At the point when PCs try to travel from [66: Prison], the city is
covered by such a thick mist that they cannot see more than a few
steps ahead. Because of this, they may lose their bearings and not
be able to proceed in the direction they wish to go. Roll 1d each
time PCs travel and determine the direction in which to move.
If the result is 1, travel north; if the result is 2, move east; if the
result is 3, move south; if the result is 4, move west; and if the result
is 5-6, move one block in the direction of the intended move. If the
destination is a blank Block, the section must be determined. If the

mission, and Diego will take them to [3: Blue Tent]. If Diego is with
PCs, Godbell, who is guarding the entrance to the blue tent, will not
disturb them.
In the blue tent, there is a black-and-white tabbit. He is Zabar.
When Diego tells Zabar what had happened, Zabar will say, “I don't
mind cooperating with you, but let me see if you are worthy of my
cooperation. Deal?”
If the PCs agree to the test, the events of “4) Climax” will occur.
If the PCs do not agree to the test, they will not be able to cooperate
with Zabar, and the PCs must explore the city on their own and try
to make contact with the resistance organizations.
4) CLIMAX
Zabar calls a construct and asks the PCs to “try to fight this
construct.” The construct must be decided on the Constructs
Encounter Table (see p. 124). One of the constructs should be
treated as a boss.
5) E PILOGUE
When PCs beat construct, Zabar will say, “You're doing better
than I thought you would,” and then adds, “Can you do me one
more favor?” If the PCs accept Zabar's request, they should proceed
with the game by referring to “2) Zabar’s Lost Item” (see p. 69) in
“3: Blue Tent” in [53: Tricolored Tents].
6) R EWARDS +★
If the PCs accept Zabar's request, then Zabar becomes the
keeper. At the same time, [53: Tricolored Tents] becomes Base.
5) E PILOGUE
After defeating the barbarous, Lildraken had just defeated the
last surviving barbarous. Lildraken thanks the PCs for their help. As
PCs look closely and see that he has an “Honorary Bracelet” on his
arm. Lildraken, calling himself Don Bucado, invites the PCs to [24:
Gladiators' Quarters].
PCs arrive uneventfully at [24: Gladiators' Quarters] after only
1tb has elapsed. Don Bucado entertains the PCs at the pavilion. If
the PCs explain the situation and ask for help, Don Bucado asks
them if they are ready to be his slaves and fight as gladiators in the
Arena. If the PCs accept to be his slave and fight as gladiators, refer
to “1) Hear from Don Bucado” in “2: Visiting Don Bucado” (see p.
41) in [24: Gladiators' Quarters] and proceed with the game.
Thereafter, the PCs will live as Don Bucado's gladiators as well as
create a map of the city.
If PCs refuse to become a gladiator, Don Bucado will say, “Oh,
well. Then look elsewhere. I'm not going to play games with people
who are not willing to go to their deaths to achieve their goals.” The
PCs must map the city independently and find a way out of it.
6) R EWARDS +★
If PCs accept to become gladiators of Don Bucado, Don
Bucado becomes the Keeper. At the same time, [24: Gladiators'
Quarters] becomes the base.
 FIXED MISSION “RESCUE EDGAR”
1) MISSION OVERVIEW
PCs receive a mission from Miranda. They must go to [56:
Bloodstained Walls] to rescue Edgar to complete the mission. The

Boggart (CR I, p. 444) comes up behind her and asks, “Have you
seen a suspicious woman?” If PCs answer that they did not see her,
Boggart clucks his tongue and runs off, choosing a suitable alley. If
they do, Boggart asks, “Which way did she go?” But the PCs do not
know which alley the figure ran down. So Boggarts will run in the

to play with them in the tenement, she remembers PCs and smiles
at them in a friendly way. If PCs tell her what happened and ask for
her help, Marilyn says, “Then you can ask for the help of the
daughter of the moon, who has a handkerchief just like this one.”
Marilyn gives PCs the “Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery”.
Marilyn then says, “I'd love to tell you an old story, but I'm in a

needs to make a Swim check (Target Number 9). If successful, the
PC swims safely to shore.
If failed, the swimmer drowns, and 1 minute (6 rounds) elapses.
Then, the Swim check (Target Number 9) is performed again. If
failed, the swimmer drowns, and another minute (6 rounds) elapses.
The Swim check is repeated, and when the total number of rounds
of drowning reaches vitality rounds, the PC faints. A PC who faints
in the river will die if not rescued immediately. If the PC is alone
when they faint by drowning, they will unfortunately die.
If the PC faints, it can be rescued by another PC. The PC that
tries to save the fainted PC need to make a Swim check (Target
Number 12). If successful, the fainted PC is rescued and reaches the
shore. If it fails, it drowns. However, since the fainted PC is still held,
it will not die yet. To swim to the shore with the fainted PC still in
possession, another PC must succeed in the Swim check (Target

stuck in the middle of nowhere because of that thing. Thank you for
saving my life.” He is Kris.
Kris says that he came to this hill in search of the location of the
tomb when he learned that Sandrine was researching the legend of
the Four Founders. As a result, he is delighted that he has
successfully found this tomb. When PCs bring Kris back to [61:
Lighted House], Sandrine says, “You did a great job. Thank you.”
The PCs, seeing Sandrine's joy at Kris' safety, might realize that they
are lovers. Thereafter, refer to “2) Sandrine's Help” in “2. Meeting
with Sandrine” (see p. 76) in [61: Lighted House] to proceed with

After defeating the mythical beast, Yamur appears from the
tavern and says, “Thank you for defeating the mythical beast. I don’t
need dead customers. Thank you”. Then he notices Balkanas and
calls out to him. When Balkanas tells him what happened, Yamur
gladly agrees to shelter him.
If the PCs do not know Yamur, Balkanas introduces them, and
the PCs thereby gain Yamur's trust. From then on, refer to “1)
Gaining Yamur's Trust” (see p. 45) in “2. Entering the Bar” in [32:
Yamur's Bar] and proceed with the game. In this case, Yamur's trust

A humanoid with a Slave's Collar comes up to PCs and asks,
“Can you share the materials with me?” The humanoid had

and the slaves offered to buy up to 5 of them. If PCs sell them, the
humanoid will thank them and leave. If not, the humanoid will call
his master, Boggart Trooper (CR II, p. 298), in a loud voice, and
the barbarous master would say, “It's too much trouble. I will just
take it myself.” and the barbarous master attacks the PCs. The

 IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE CITY OF MIST
I MPORTANT I NFORMATION: ABOUT THE CANAL GATE
1. E XISTENCE AND L OCATION
The canal runs around the artificial island on which [Fixed
Section 3: Jade Tower] stands and connects to Lake Chess.
Between the canal and Lake Chess is a canal gate, which used
to be open during the day and closed at night. However, it is
now closed all the time.
2. OPEN/CLOSE CODES R EQUIRED
To open the canal gate, three “Opening/Closing Codes”
are required: the “First Opening/Closing Code: 438”, the
“Second Opening/Closing Code: 951”, and the “Third
Opening/Closing Code: 276”.
3. F INAL CODE R EQUIRED
To open the sluice, the final code must be entered after the
three “Opening/Closing Codes” have been entered into the
sluice's control panel.
4. SECRET
If the three “Opening/Closing Codes” are arranged
vertically in the specified order, the following 3x3 array is
formed.
438
951
276
The sum of the three numbers in this number sequence's
vertical, horizontal, and diagonal columns are all 15. These
“1” and “5” will be the final code. To open the canal gate,
the “1” and “5” must be pressed in sequence.
A clue to this final code can be found in the “Old Ballad
from [42:Cul-De-Sac Tenement House]” (see p. 57). The
part “I put a square around them and make eight wishes in a
row” is it, indicating that the sum of the eight columns in the
numerical sequence, vertically, horizontally, and diagonally,
is the same number. If the GM is present, they may give
additional hints.
Refer to the relevant descriptions of canal gates in
“Entering Opening/Closing Codes for Canal Gate” (see p.
90).
I MPORTANT I NFORMATION: ABOUT L IGHT OF SHELASHIS
1. E XISTENCE
There is a magical device called “Light of Shelashis” in the
City Of Mist.
2. L OCATION
Light of Shelashis are streetlights located throughout the
City Of Mist.
3. E FFECT
When the Light of Shelashis is lit, all soulscarred characters
in the light receive a penalty to all checks equal to a number
of their soulscars.
4. SECRET
A magical device exists in the basement of [Fixed Section
3: Jade Tower] to supply magic power to the Light of
Shelashis. This magical device is activated by pouring water
from the canal into the device. However, the canal sluice is
currently closed, and the magical device is not working. For
information on how to open the canal gate, see “1. Crossing
the Canal” (see p. 90) in [Fixed 3: Jade Tower] and
“Important Information: About the Canal Gate.”
I MPORTANT I NFORMATION: ABOUT THE MAGICAL
DEVICE THAT CLEARS THE M IST
1. E XISTENCE
In the City Of Mist, a magical device exists to clear the mist.
This was built during the Magitech Civilization period to
comfort the city's people.
2. L OCATION
The metal monument in [25: Grief Plaza] is this magical
device.
3. E FFECT
The amphitheater made of silver crystal in [34: Cloisters of
the Everlasting Night] is the control panel for this magical
device.
4. SECRET
When the [Silver Crystal Plate] is inserted into the center
of the amphitheater in [34: Cloisters of the Everlasting
Night], a control panel will be activated, and countless
magitech letters appear. These letters can be freely
reconfigured by touching and moving them. The letters are
then combined to form meaningful sentences, which control
the magical device's main body in [25: Grief Plaza]. The
Silver Crystal Plate, which is necessary to activate the control
panel, is guarded by Gad Bodek, the “Thousand Roars” in
the basement of [Fixed Section 3: Jade Tower].
This magical device is also described in “The Secret of the
Monument in [25: Grief Plaza]” (see p. 42) and “The Secret
of the Amphitheater in [34: Cloisters of the Everlasting
Night]” (see p. 47).

 I MPORTANT I NFORMATION: ABOUT THE L EGEND OF THE
F OUR F OUNDERS
1. E XISTENCE
The original City Of Mist was built during the Magitech
Civilization period by four brothers and sisters known as the
Four Founders.
2. N AMES
In order of age, the four founders are Zoraentes the Strong,
the eldest brother; Quick-Witted Selansier, the eldest sister;
Suela, the Fierce, the second oldest sister; and Shelashis, the
“Loving,” the youngest sister.
3. L EGEND
The legend of the Four Founders tells the following about
them.
Zoraentes is said to have “protected the people and carved
out a barbarous land,” telling us that he had carved out a
human settlement in this land that was once under barbarous
rule.
Selansier is said to have “laid the foundation of the city”
and that she laid out the city's facilities, such as canals and
sewers, as well as institutions for the various people's
livelihoods.
Suela is said to have “burned down every barbarous on the
lakeshore,” telling us that she exterminated the barbarous
forces scattered around Lake Chess and temporarily
removed the barbarous threat.
It is said that Shelashis “nurtured the City Of Mist” and that
the city reached its greatest period of prosperity under her
reign. In other words, the Four Founders were the four
generations of kings and queens who ruled the city, and it is
believed that their rule was completed by the Shelashis.
4. L OCATION OF THE T OMB
At the top of [46:Black Hill] is a tomb called the Tombs
of the Four Founders.
106
I MPORTANT I NFORMATION: ABOUT “MAGIC SWORD OF
R ED M IST ” K URGARAN
1. E XISTENCE
There is a magical sword called “Magic Sword of Red Mist”
Kurgaran.
2. L OCATION
The magic sword is always in possession of “Green
General” Yahakkazesh.
Yahakkazesh usually sits on a throne on the top floor of
[Fixed Section 3: Jade Tower].
3. E FFECT
The magic sword has the magic power to generate “red
mist.”
When Kurgaran's Magic Power is activated, an eerie
reddish-black mist covers the City Of Mist and the
surrounding area. As long as they are in this fog, all
soulscarred characters gain a bonus to all Skill Checks equal
to the number of soulscars they possess.
4. SECRET
The “Red Mist” Magic Power of the Kurgaran must be
activated at the cost of living blood. For this reason,
Yahakkazesh has created a system in which the Honorary
Bracelet is designed to suck the blood out of the honorary
barbarous. In the event of a battle with the humanoids,
Yahakkazesh calls the honorary barbarous to the [Fixed
Section 3: Jade Tower], purportedly to mobilize them. Then,
as soon as the “Red Mist” is activated, the blood is sucked
out through the bracelets. The unfortunate victims will have
their blood sucked out of them until they die in order to keep
this secret.
 RANDOM EVENTS LIST
If a random event occurs, roll 1d to determine the event's
content.
If an event with this number has already occurred, roll a
1d; if it’s also occurred 1d is added one more time until a
random event corresponding to the sum of rolls hasn’t
occurred (GM can always select an event manually).
If a random event has already occurred, it cannot occur a
second time, and after all random events have occurred, all
random events can occur again, assuming that all the
random events have not yet occurred.
1) E NCOUNTER IN THE M IST (1) +★
A thick mist appears. Someone appears out of the mist
and bumps into PCs. It's a pickpocket! One randomly
selected PC need to make a Danger Sense check (Target
Number B). If successful, the pickpocket is prevented. The
pickpocket flees into the mist in a panic.
If the check fails, all gamels in the PC’s possession will be
stolen.
2) M ISTY (1)
Due to the thick mist that covered the PCs’ vision, they
could not see in which direction they were heading. This
may prevent them from traveling in the direction they wish
to go. If PCs travel from this Block, the direction they travel
is determined by 1d roll.
If the result is 1 travel north, if 2 travel east, if 3 travel
south, if 4 travel west, and if 5-6 travel one block in the
direction they were trying to travel. If the destination is a
blank Black, the section must be determined. If the
destination is a wall or the sea, then reroll 1d to determine
the destination.
The mist will dissipate in the following tb.
3) CONSTRUCTION SITE
PCs find a site where a military facility is being built by a
barbarous. A barbarous, who seems to be the site
supervisor, asks, “Anyone who wants to work? We'll pay
you!”
If PCs work at a construction site, they need to make a
check with the “Adventurer Level + Strength modifier”.
The salary is the “Success Value” gamel. If PCs worked, 3
tb would be elapsed.
4) B OHR 'S OUTBURST +★
People start to make a commotion. Looking, 1 Bohr (see
p. 135) is seen running amok, kicking people around. Bohr
comes charging toward the PCs.
If there is a PC with Rider class, after killing Bohr, GM
should make a Death Check for Bohr. If successful, Bohr
is taken alive. The Rider PC can make the captured Bohr
their mount.
5) B EGGAR (1)
One beggar appears and extends their hand to the PCs,
saying, “Bless you, poor old man.” If PCs give them some
money, they will gladly walk away. If they don't, they swear,
“Damn pigs! Hey, here's the 'Wind Brigade'!” PCs hear his
and see a barbarous coming toward them. If PCs run away
immediately and travel from the Block, they can avoid the
battle. If they do not run away, there will be a battle.
Barbarous should be determined with the Barbarous
Encounter Table (see p. 122).
When the battle was over, the beggar disappeared.
6) E NCOUNTER IN THE MIST (2) +★
A thick mist appears. PCs are hit by a grassrunner that
appears out of the mist. Grassrunner says, “Sorry, sorry,
sorry. Sorry for bumping into you, but I'm in a hurry.”
Grassrunner is Nils, the “Fairy of the Back Alley”. Even if
the PCs already know Nils, Nils doesn't notice the PCs,
probably because he is in a hurry.
In both cases, as PCs look on the ground, they will find a
key. When they return the key to Nils or deliver it to
Ursula, they will be rewarded with 100 gamels. This key is
the Prison Key. If PCs try to go to [66: Prison] “1. Prison
Gates” without knowing it, the key will work, and PCs will
be able to open the gates without triggering the alarm trap.
7) T HE L IVING DEAD +★
Corpses are lying on the side of the road. Suddenly, the
corpses rise and attack the PCs. The corpses are undead.
It should be determined using the Undead Encounter
Table (see p. 123). At this time, one of the undead should
be treated as the boss.
If PCs defeat the undead, they will get one of the treasures
in the Treasure Decision Table: $ (see p. 126) in addition
to the normal loot.
8) M ISTY (1)
Due to the thick mist that covered the PCs’ vision, they
could not see in which direction they were heading. This
may prevent them from traveling in the direction they wish
to go. If PCs travel from this Block, the direction they travel
is determined by 1d roll.
If the result is 1 travel north, if 2 travel east, if 3 travel
south, if 4 travel west, and if 5-6 travel one block in the
direction they were trying to travel. If the destination is a
blank Black, the section must be determined. If the
destination is a wall or the sea, then reroll 1d to determine
the destination.
The mist will dissipate in the following tb.
9) H ONORARY BARBAROUS +★
A human man is trying to take a girl by force. The man is
wearing an Honorary Bracelet. The man is an honorary
barbarous. The girl seems to be a vagabond. The man is
forcing the girl to become his slave. The honorary
barbarous is accompanied by barbarous, who seems to be
his escort. The barbarous should be determined with the
Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122).
If the PCs help the girl, they will have to fight with the
barbarous guard; the honorary barbarous man does not
join in the fight but watches on, and when the barbarous is
defeated, the man is frightened and runs away. However, if
the PCs chase after him, they can capture him. The man
107
begs for his life. Since he does not have the Adventurer
class, he dies automatically if the PCs declare that they want
to kill him. The Honorary Barbarous possesses an
Honorary Bracelet and a “1d x 100” gamels.
10) CONSTRUCTION SITE
PCs find a site where a military facility is being built by a
barbarous. A barbarous, who seems to be the site
supervisor, asks, “Anyone who wants to work? We'll pay
you!”
If PCs work at a construction site, they need to make a
check with the “Adventurer Level + Strength modifier.”
The salary is the “Success Value” gamel. If PCs worked, 3
tb will be elapsed.
11) B ARBAROUS B UTCHER (+★)
One barbarous has three slaves with it. The barbarous
should be determined with the Barbarous Encounter Table
(see p. 122). In this case, the party's average level is one
level higher and should be treated as a boss.
The barbarous points to the slave and asks the crowd,
“Why don't you cut off their heads?”
For 500 gamel, “I'll let you cut off one of their head,” he
offers, and if the PCs do nothing, one honorary barbarous
will appear, pay 500 gamel, and cut off the head while
looking down grinning at the slave begging for their life.
Even if the PCs pay 500 gamels for each slave to free
them, the barbarous will use the magic power of the “Slave's
Collar” to kill the slaves and then giggle and laugh.
If PCs attack barbarous and defeat them, a key to remove
the “Slave's Collar” will be obtained as loot. This key can
be used to free the slave's collar.
Only if PCs helped the slaves, they will receive ★.
12) T HE CHASED WOMAN +★
PCs come upon a scene of a dispute between a young
woman and barbarous. The barbarous appear to be trying
to force the woman to go with them. Upon closer
inspection, the woman is wounded.
The woman finds the PCs and says, “Please. Help me.”
Hearing this, Barbarous says, “She is a traitor. Everyone
who helps her is a traitor too!”
If PCs want to rescue a woman, there will be in combat
with a barbarous. Barbarous should be determined with the
Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122). In this case, the
party's average level is assumed to be 1 level higher.
After fighting off the barbarous, the woman introduces
herself as Marilyn. She is an assassin called Marilyn, the
Headhunter, and is a member of the Moonlit Wasps” a
resistance organization. If the PCs are not already involved
with the “Moonlit Wasps,” Marilyn gives them a
Handkerchief with Wasp Embroidery. She then tells them,
“I'm in a hurry right now, so if you'll excuse me, come visit
me when you get a chance.” She invites them to the [23:
Prostitution Street] and says that the people who wear the
same handkerchief are also from “Moonlit Wasps.”
If PCs are already acquainted with Ariadne, the
“Daughter of the Moon,” Marilyn will not give the
handkerchief but instead say, “Thank you for your help. I'll
be sure to tell your sister about it.”. PCs will gain Ariadne's
Favor instead of a handkerchief.
In both cases, Marilyn then runs away.
108
13) E NCOUNTER IN THE M IST (3) +★
A thick mist appears. Someone appears out of the mist
and bumps into you. One randomly selected PC performs
a Danger Sense check (Target Number B). If successful,
the PC can avoid the blade that stabs at them just before it
hits them.
The one that attacked PC is the robber! The robber
should be to be determined by the Humanoids Encounter
Table (see p. 125). So, on fail, the PC is dealt damage equal
to the melee attack of the robber.
14) M ISTY (1)
Due to the thick mist that covered the PCs’ vision, they
could not see in which direction they were heading. This
may prevent them from traveling in the direction they wish
to go. If PCs travel from this Block, the direction they travel
is determined by 1d roll.
If the result is 1 travel north, if 2 travel east, if 3 travel
south, if 4 travel west, and if 5-6 travel one block in the
direction they were trying to travel. If the destination is a
blank Black, the section must be determined. If the
destination is a wall or the sea, then reroll 1d to determine
the destination.
The mist will dissipate in the following tb.
15) B ARBAROUS ARGUMENT +★
Two barbarous are encountered in an argument, and the
two barbarous should be determined by using the
Barbarous Encounter Table (see p. 122) twice for each. In
this case, the party's average level is one level higher. Treat
each of these barbarous as bosses.
The barbarous asks the PCs to choose which of the two
seems stronger. When one of them chooses, the chosen
one is pleased and gives the PCs 100 gamels as a reward.
The barbarous then walks away, insulting the other
barbarous. The barbarous who is not chosen becomes
enraged and attacks the PCs.
If the PCs are lost and cannot choose one or the other,
both barbarous will attack the PCs. The GM should warn
the PCs that if they are in doubt and if they do not choose,
the barbarous will attack them.
16) B ARBAROUS M ANHUNT +★
A group of barbarous are attacking people. The
barbarous see the PCs and attack them. Barbarous should
be determined with the Barbarous Encounter Table (see p.
122). In this case, the party's average level is one level
higher. And the leader barbarous tribe should de separately
determined with the Barbarous Encounter Table (see p.
122). Treat the leader as the boss.
17) CONSTRUCTION SITE

SITUATIONS AFTER DEFEAT
Situation 1: The PCs found themselves in a small cage. They
are at the slave market; the PCs have been killed,
reanimated by someone, and sold off. In addition, parts of
their bodies have been transformed into some other
creature!
Situation 2: The PCs found themselves woken up by a
keeper. Apparently, they had been defeated, but someone
had identified them and sent them back to the keeper.
However, someone seemed to have taken all the PCs'
equipment as a reward.
Situation 3: The PCs were killed. PCs thanked Keeper for
his help, but Keeper showed PCs the cost of resurrection.
Situation 4: PCs found themselves in a small cage. They are
at the slave market. They don't know if the previous keeper
had grown tired of the PCs or if it was unavoidable, but it
seems that the keeper chose to sell them off as slaves.
Situation 5: The PCs found themselves woken up by the
keeper. Apparently, they had been defeated, but someone
had identified them and sent them back to the keeper.
Situation 6: PCs find themselves lying in the most luxurious
room he had ever seen in the City Of Mist. When they woke
up, a dignified man said, “You're awake.” The PCs sat down,
not understanding the words, and the man smiled and said,
“I am Yahakkazesh. When you have finished your meal,
fight me. If you can beat me, you can get out of here. If you
lose, I will guarantee your resurrection.”
Situation 7: PCs were killed. The next thing they know, they
are lying on the ground, with the whole area covered in white
bones and husks. As the PCs sit up, they realize something
is wrong with them. Parts of their bodies have turned into
those of some other creature!

Hercules / Female / ? yrs. / Fixed Section 3: Jade Tower
“I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I'm hungry... You want to eat?”
She is the higher Scylla that lives on the lowest level of
Jade Tower, guarding the magical device that activates the
“Light of Shelashis.” The Hellhounds of her lower body are
always hungry, and her hunger is never satisfied. She is
always on the prowl in the lowest levels of Jade Tower,

that guards the basement
of Jade Tower. He was
entrusted by the then
barbarous chief to guard
the basement of Jade
Tower immediately after
the fall of the City Of
Mist due to the
barbarous invasion and
the beginning of

then, he has continued
to fulfill his duties

Gustav, Lord of the Bloody Castle
Human / Female / 16 yrs. / 43: Bloody Castle
“Mom, there's a stranger here. What should I do?”
She lives in Bloody
Castle with two runefolk,
Ade and Martha, and is
revered as the Lord of
Bloody Castle. Her real
name is Judith; however,
she has taken the name
of her father, Gustav,
who passed away five
years ago. She was raised

Kris
Human / Male / 22 yrs. / 27: Black Hill
“As long as you can make Lady Sandrine laugh, that's all
that matters to me.”
Kris is a slave of Sandrine Capet, “Evening Princess”. He
looks like a gentle man bland with only crimson hair. But in
fact, he is strong-willed and has the capacity to heal the
wounded with kindness. Sandrine loves him for this, and he
becomes her lover. When he learned that Sandrine was
investigating the legend of the Four Founders, he went to
[46: Black Hill] to investigate, but encountered a monster
and was unable to return home. After being rescued, he
returns to Sandrine in [61: Lighted House].
Claire, the “Summer Memories”
Elf / Female / Estimated 320 yrs. / 35: Deserted Garden
“Wow, I haven't seen an outsider in 300 years.”
She lives in hiding
with Undine in a pond at
the back of the garden.
She has green eyes and
blond hair twice her
height. She used to live
near the City Of Mist
before the Diabolic
Triumph, but she was
forced to take refuge in
this garden pond after
failing to escape during
the barbarous invasion.
Since then, she has been
living here under the
protection of Undines.
When she fled to the pond, she brought with her Sword of
Protection, and the sword's magic power caused the pond to
bloom with Golden Skunk Cabbages. She had a former
lover, “Stagnant Poison” Ivan Aivan. She thinks he was
killed by the barbarous.
113
 Daemon Tamer Zabar
Tabbit / Male / 25 yrs. / 53: Tricolored Tents
“Show me your products. Show me what you can do.”
Zabar is the most
famous businessman in
the City Of Mist. As his
nickname suggests, he
has a large number of
daemons in his employ,
and even the upper
barbarous take a shine to
him. For this reason, he
has the same position,
although he is not
officially an honorary
barbarous. In addition,
he can enter and leave
the city with his cargo
almost unchecked. This
allows him to single-handedly procure food for the City Of
Mist's vagabonds and slaves. Without him, the vagabonds
and slaves would not be able to survive, and even the
barbarous would be affected since they do not produce food
in the city. This adds to his power. He has at least Sorcerer
11, Conjurer 10, and Sage 9.
Translator Note: As this was written before Cardia Grace,
you can add Warlock 11 to his classes if you use Cardia
Grace.
Sandrine Capet, the “Evening Princess”
Lamia / Female / Looks like 28 yrs. / 61: Lighted House
“Could you please do me a favor?”
Sandrine is one of the
few upper barbarous
who live in the City Of
Mist and live close to a
humanoid lifestyle. She
owns many young
humanoid males as her
slaves and feeds on their
blood every night. She
used to think of
humanoids as nothing
more than food, but that
changed when she came
to love Kris, one of her
slaves, for his strength
and kindness. Since
then, she has grown tired of the city and plans to escape with
Kris, researching the legends of the Four Founders to open
the canal gate. For her use, Lamia’s (CR I, p. 451) data
enhanced with sword shards.
114
Shelashis, the “Loving”
Human / Female / 15 years at the time of legend / -
“The light shines fairly on yesterday, today, and even the
future.”
She is one of the four founders of the city that later
developed into the City Of Mist during the Magitech
Civilization period. She is considered the youngest princess.
She is portrayed as a pure and innocent princess with long
golden hair of slightly reddish waves and is often
symbolically holding a light in her hand. It is said to have
nurtured the City Of Mist, which seems to have enjoyed its
greatest period of prosperity under her rule.
Jabardine, “Blackburn”
Basilisk / Male / Looks like 45 yrs. / 26: “Burning Dancer”
Pavilion
“My fellow children of Ignis. Come, let us enjoy the feast
to the fullest!”
One of the upper barbarous who rule the city, he is the
owner of the “Burning Dancer” Pavilion. He is an elderly
gentleman with black hair tied up in a single bun, a stylish
mustache, and a pair of round tinted glasses. He always takes
a special seat on the second-floor terrace of the “Burning
Dancer” pavilion, where he takes pleasure in watching
humanoids being roasted alive and wailing on a grill that
resembles an amphitheater. For him, use Basilisk (CR II, p.
309) data enhanced with sword shards.
Suela the Fierce
Human / Female / 18 years at the time of legend
“Ravage like wildfire! Nurture human seedlings in
burning remains.”
She is one of the four founders who built the town that
later developed into the City Of Mist during the Magitech
Civilization period and is considered to be the second
princess. She is depicted as a brave princess with orange hair
in a ponytail and a sword. According to the legend, “Suela
burned down all the barbarous by the lake,” and it is
believed that she temporarily removed the barbarous threat
from around the City Of Mist. Ursula named her
organization “Suela's Flame” in honor of this legend.
Old Morton
Human / Male / 63 yrs. / 52: Back Alley
“I will die soon. I'm glad I met you before that.”
Old Morton is an old beggar in the back alley. He was
one of the soldiers who followed the young Duke of
Durlesburg, “Swordsman with the Broken Sword” Alfred
III, in a battle against the barbarous army. The battle was a
terrible defeat for the Duchy's army, and he was captured.
Since then, he has been living in this town as a vagabond,
gathering information and dreaming of the day when he will
be back on his feet. He has discovered the secret of the
“Magic Sword of Red Mist” Kurgaran, but he has given up
the idea of returning to his homeland alive because of his
old age.
 Zu Gri, the “Lord of Greed”
Ogre / Male / ? yrs. / 51: Ruins
“Hey, buddy. Go into the ruins. Go get the treasure.”
Zu Gri is one of the
upper barbarous of the
City Of Mist. He has the
propensity to collect
gems and expensive
accessories, which is
unusual among
barbarous who tend to
think of gems as a
means to tame
humanoids as slaves.
He orders his slaves to
search the ruins of the
Al-Menas period
scattered around the
city for any valuable
treasures. To him, the slaves are nothing more than
disposable tools for exploring the ruins. Of course, he takes
good care of the “useful items” that he often brings back
from the ruins. Use Ogre's (CR II, p. 303) data for him
enhanced with sword shards.
Seira, the Snow Wind
Human / Female / 30 yrs. /41: Bandit's Path
“I will not follow them. I have no reason to follow those
beasts.”
She is the deputy
leader of the “Wind
Brigade,” an
organization based in
the underground
Temple of Lu Lode on
Bandit's Path that
opposes the domination
of the barbarous. She
has a childish face that is
sometimes mistaken for
a boy's due to her
messily cut short hair,
and she wears glasses
that give her an
intelligent impression.
Because she does not speak much and her facial expression
does not change much, she is often thought of as cold-
hearted, but she has more hatred for the barbarous and
more love for her fellow countrymen than anyone else. At
times, she boldly executes a daring plan of rebellion against
the barbarous, revealing her inner fierceness. She has at least
Marksman 7, Scout 6, and Priest (Lu Lode) 6.
Quick-Witted “Selansier”
Human / Female / 22 years at the time of legend / -
“'Nurture Hope. Nurture it for Tomorrow.”
She was one of the four founders of the town that later
developed into the City Of Mist during the Magitech
Civilization period and is considered to be the oldest
princess. She is depicted as a reticent-looking woman with
shimmering golden hair cut at the shoulder and often
symbolically holds a book in her hand. According to legend,
“Selansier laid the foundation of the city” and is said to have
built the canals and sewers. He was also an excellent
Artificer and built the foundations for the various magical
devices that still remain in the city today.
Zoraentes the Strong
Human / Male / 28 years at the time of legend / -
“For the people. For my sisters. We will not retreat!”
He is one of the four founders who built the town that
later developed into the City Of Mist during the Magitech
Civilization period and is considered to be the firstborn son.
He is depicted as a fearless-looking young man in armor,
often holding a shield symbolically. According to tradition,
“Zoraentes protected the people and cleared the land of
barbarous,” reminding us that he cleared the land, which
was once under the rule of the barbarous, for human
habitation. He is said to have died in a fierce battle
protecting the people from the barbarous.
”Bonehead” Sonnenfeles
Troll / Male / ? yrs. / 31: Abandoned House
“When you are hungry, kill and eat. This is the order of
the world.”
One of the upper barbarous of the City Of Mist, he is
the priest of Dalkhrem, the god of war. He makes his home
in the Abandoned House in the city and acts from “night”
to “dawn” because of his nature. Believing that food is
obtained by hunting, he does not own a slave but roams the
streets at night, killing vagabonds for his meals. He has a
“Canal Pass” for this purpose. For him, use Troll (CR I, p.
450) data enhanced with sword shards.
Bohr Selling Davii
Human / Male / 33 yrs. / 22: Open-air Market
“Hehehe. Now the fog is thin, and it's a good day for
riding, sir.”
He is a seller of Bohrs and mount equipment on the
Open-air Market. He is always hunched over with a dirty
appearance and a sneer on his face that makes him look
older than he really is. He is a picture-perfect hooligan but
honest at heart, and many people befriend him. However,
he has a strong business instinct and is good friends with
Daemon Tame Zabar. Davy has Rider 4.
115
 Dalio
Runefolk / Male / Looks like 17 yrs. / 53: Tricolored Tents
“Welcome to the Zabar Chamber of Commerce!”
He is one of the twin runefolk who serves Daemon
Tamer Zabar, the most famous wealthy merchant in the City
Of Mist. He has the appearance of a young man with shiny
white teeth and is always polite to his customers, whether
they are vagabonds or upper barbarous. To distinguish him
from Diego, he wears white. As a storekeeper, he is always
in the black tent. He has at least Artificer 7, Marksman 7,
and Sage 7.
Diego
Runefolk / Male / Looks like 17 yrs. / 53: Tricolored Tents
“Please wait, and I will go to Mr. Zabar.”
He is one of the twin runefolk who serves Daemon
Tamer Zabar, the most famous wealthy merchant in the City
Of Mist. He looks exactly like Dario and has the same tone
of voice and attitude. However, they can be distinguished by
his black clothing. He is always in the black tent with Dario
but often goes out on Zabar's errands to deal with clients or
to dispose of victims in the red tent. He has at least Grappler
7, Enhancer 7, and Scout 7.
”The Sea Breeze” Tohotel
Human / Male / 48 yrs. / 12: Execution Site
“I will decide how to live my life on my own. One day,
that day will come.”
He is the leader of
Wind Brigade, an
organization based in
the Temple of Lu Lode,
located on the Bandit's
Path, that is working to
liberate the City Of Mist
from the domination of
the barbarous. He is a
mild-mannered, white-
haired man who also
serves as the head priest
of the Temple of Lu
Lode. He is currently
being held captive by
the barbarous and is
scheduled to be executed in the near future. Although he
was subjected to horrendous torture, he was so bold that he
does not confess the whereabouts of his comrades until the
very end. If he is rescued, he will thereafter lead Wind
Brigade's activities at [41: Bandit's Path]. He has at least
Priest (Lu Lode) 8, Fencer 6, Sage 6, and Bard 6.
116
Dryads Guarding the Temple of Sacaros
Dryad / Female / ? yrs. / 55: Ruins of the Temple of
Sacaros
“Are you a heavy drinker? Really? Then let's play.”
They are forest fairies that guard the Ruins of the
Temple of Sacaros. They have been living here since before

 MAGIC TRANSFORMATION TABLE
If PC die in the City Of Mist, they can still be revived. If
PC choose to be resuscitated by Mugido instead of the
normal resurrection, they will not have to pay for
resurrection, but their body will be forcibly altered.
Body modification involves replacing the body's organs,
such as arms and legs, with those of a powerful monster,
which adds functions that are not originally present. The
content of the modification changes according to the whim
of Mugido and is decided randomly by rolling dice.
Magic Transformation can be performed at any time
without death by requesting it from Mugido. However, PC
must still die to perform Magic Transformation (and will
accumulate soulscar).
The PC who received the Magic Transformation cannot
walk from Mugido for 1 day (6tb).
Magic Transformation Body Part Table
When a Magic Transformation is performed, roll 1d to
determine the body part where the Magic Transformation
was performed. You cannot select the same location that
has already received a Magic Transformation.
Once the modification area is determined, the details of
the modification are further determined by the second 1d
roll.
Any Magic Transformation can be hidden to some extent
by disguise or costume. In most cases, the peculiar physical
appearance of a person is not noticeable to the casual
passerby. However, if PC is discovered, they will not be
allowed to appear in public, and other humanoids will keep
their distance from you.
Magic Transformation Body Part Table
1d The Body Part to be Magic Transformed
1–2 Hands
3–4 Feet
5 Chest
6 Head
Hands Magic Transformation
1) [B OGGART H ANDS/R APID ATTACK ]
Summary: Both arms turn into the strong arms of Boggart
(CR I, p. 444).
Effect: The ability score is unchanged, and the hands can
be used just like normal hands. If a melee weapon is used
with this arm and the attack hits the target, the same target
can be attacked again.
If each hand is equipped with a different melee weapon,
and the character has [Dual Wielding], each hand can
attack once more on hit.
Hands can be disguised by wrapping them with a
bandage or wearing larger clothing.
2) [WIGHT H AND/P OISONOUS CLAW]
Summary: Tip of one hand is rotted like Wight (CR II, p.
348).
Effect: The tip of one randomly selected that has been
decided on by the dam will rot, and nails will start to secrete
poison. The ability score remains unchanged, and the hand
can be used just like a normal hand.
128
This hand is handled in the same way as the Punch
weapon of the Wrestling category. If the attack with the
Wight Arm hits and inflicts damage, the attacker and the
attacked PC both need to make Fortitude checks. If the
attacker has a higher result, the attacked target will be dealt
an Adventurer level poison magic damage to both HP and
MP.
The hand can be hidden by clothing, but if one gets
close enough to touch them, they will notice them by smell.
3) [I NVISIBLE B EAST H AND/INVISIBILITY]
Summary: One hand becomes invisible like the hands of
the Invisible Beast (CR I, p. 443).
Effect: One randomly selected hand is always invisible and
can be used just like a normal hand without any change in
ability score. The invisibility can be concealed by wearing
clothes and gloves.
If this hand is exposed and the character attacks with a
one-handed melee weapon, the attacked target suffers a -2
penalty on Evasion checks. Attacked target is immune to
this penalty if it has magic or mechanical perception.
If the hand is equipped with metal armor, it can hide
the fact that the arm is invisible, but it cannot be exposed
to give a penalty.
4) [GAR-UI H AND/GUN]
Summary: One hand changed into a gun of a GAR-UI (CR
I, p. 477).
Effect: One randomly selected arm is turned into a gun.
The gun hand cannot hold any equipment or items and
cannot have any accessories. The character loses 6
dexterity.
Gun can be handled as B-rank Gun and B-rank Mace
with the following data. Also, [Solid Bullet] 1st-level
magitech can be learned regardless of prerequisites and
experience points and can be cast only when attacking with
the following gun.
The hand can be hidden by clothing, but the absence
of the hand makes it look suspicious.

5) [OVEREATER 'S VINE/M ELEE ATTACK E XTENSION ]
Summary: One hand will be extended like the vine of
Overeater (CR II, p. 340).
Effect: One randomly selected hand is extended to 5 m and
can be bent freely outside the joint.
 When attacking with a one-handed melee weapon with
an extended arm, the character can ignore the skirmish and
attack any target up to 5 meters away. The character can
attack any target inside from outside the skirmish, and they
can attack any target outside the skirmish within 5 meters
even if they are inside the skirmish.
The arms are overgrown closely to the body as if folded,
and if you hang a cloth or something from the shoulders,
the character can cover up the length of the arms.
6) [K ILLER OCTOPUS’ T ENTACLES/T ENTACLES]
Summary: One arm turns from a shoulder into the
tentacles of a Killer Octopus (CR I, p. 458).
Effect: One randomly selected arm is replaced by a tentacle
with a suction cup. The tentacle arm cannot hold
equipment or items and cannot be equipped with
accessories. The Dexterity is reduced by -6 points.
Tentacles are treated as wrestling melee weapons, and
the combat feat [Tail Swing] is also can be used with them.
A character who already has a Tail will be treated as if they
have two Tails, but this change will not increase the number
of attacks they can make.
If the Tail hits the target, it is entangled by the tentacles.
The entangled target receives an Accuracy and Evasion
checks -2 penalty, and the next tentacle attack will
automatically hit the target.
To remove a tentacle, the target needs to make an
“Adventurer level + Strength modifier” (or monster level in
the case of a monster) on their turn versus the tentacle's
Accuracy check with Major Action. If it is higher, the
entanglement is removed. The tentacles can be removed by
anyone except the target themself.

is necessary to cover the entire arm from the shoulder with
a large piece of cloth.

the target's Willpower. If the character is successful, the
target's agility or dexterity is randomly set to -6. This effect
is cumulative, and if either falls below 0, the target's entire
body is petrified on the spot, rendering it unable to act. In
the case of a fixed value character, the ability score is not
reduced, but the character will be petrified after 3 failed

effect cannot be removed, and once changed, the body
cannot be returned to its original state. In order to restore
the body, the character will need to use the [Reincarnation]
spell (see CR III, p. 160) or [Call God] (CR III, p. 161) to

 Designer's Notebook
Tanaka Kouji
To those who have been playing Sword World 2.0 for a
long time, we are pleased to present our first major
supplement, “Mist Castle: Barbarous Capital Survival.” We
have worked hard to create a multi-purpose game book that
can be played solo or with a party, with or without a GM.
Although we use the word gamebook, we have tried our
best to make the game's difficulty level as high as that of many
famous gamebooks. If you play the game, you will
understand how harsh, unlucky, and dangerous the “city
ruled by barbarous” is. However, the sense of
accomplishment you get when you overcome and grow
differs from the others.
In the City Of Mist, a character you have created and
developed over the years may be easily defeated by a
random, powerful barbarous. However, even if you are
wiped out or die, you can use the “Defeat Table” or “Magic
Transformation Table” to continue to enjoy the game. Do
not give up just because you have been defeated by a
barbarous only once, but try again and again until you escape.
Use your previous experience and be careful and daring, and
you should be able to clear the campaign in no time.
I want to thank everyone involved, the editors, and those
who participated in the test play for their assistance in creating
this book. Without any one person, City Of Mist would not
have been completed. I want to take this opportunity to thank
you again.

So, we will see you again after you escape from the City Of
Mist.
Tadaaki Kawahito
A new horizon of adventure has opened up for you: the
City Of Mist, a dangerous city ruled by barbarous and full of
death and traps.
So, this book, “Mist Castle,” is the third collection of
scenarios for “Sword World 2.0,” following “Magic Sword
Labyrinths “ and “A City of Singing Voices.” In addition, the
volume and content have been greatly upgraded compared
to the previous two paperback editions! It is a collection of
scenarios that can be enjoyed for a long time and at a
reasonable price. By playing this book, you will also learn
what kind of place the City Of Mist is and what kind of
ordeals await you there. These various descriptions will be of
great help when playing this book and creating your own
scenarios set in the City Of Mist.
In addition, a variety of tables, such as the “Monster
Encounter Tables,” which allows you to randomly determine
the monsters to encounter, and the “Treasure tables,” which
allows you to determine the treasures, will help you play your
own scenarios and to create encounters and find treasures on
the fly.
As you can see, this book is packed with elements that will
help you enjoy your adventures in the world of Raxia to the
fullest. We hope you will make use of it in your adventures.
And we hope that many more adventurers will take up the
challenge of the City Of Mist.
