King Roland’s Pennies

Three treasure chests have been stolen from the royal tax collector, and the king is willing to part with 240 coin for the return of his gold. The thieves are believed to be the orcs you drove away, now roving the countryside on their way to the Zalgara Mountains, called there by the dread warrior Guron.

NOTES

This quest is an unofficial reimagining of the official quest “Prince Magnus Gold” using the beautiful dungeon mats by Ian Schofield. You can find the digital maps for print on his DriveThruRPG page.

It was created partly as proof of concept, partly for shits and giggles when making Ian’s maps available for use in HeroScribe (with his blessing, of course). You can find the the HeroScribe package with all the Beautiful Dungeon Mats on my DriveThruRPG page. Please use it responsibly and take care to only aggravate the heroes on the board and no one else.

The description of the quest itself you can find in your base Hero Quest quest book, I only altered the intro. The writer in me was compelled to change the overarching story a bit, make it coherent, up the stakes, that sort of thing. I’ll make sure to release all the 14 quests in the coming weeks (so please check back). The difficulty will be the same as their official counterpart, although with these larger maps there is plenty of room for additional monsters and traps should you wish to add them.

And while you’re here, stay a while and browse around the site for other content. Remember, there can be no lamentation if you don’t have enough quests to drive the heroes before you. Unless the lamentation is about not playing Hero Quest, which is terrible—and how did I get this far off track…

I need to get back to creating (and posting) more quests.
