One day your penchant for gold will be your undoing. Yet again you went in search of legends, this time guided by a local, down many twisty hallways. Then, in a room with three doors, your guide snuffed the light and with a cackling farewell left you alone in the dark. Far too late did you realize it was a set up, and you now have no choice but to find your way, or perish in the darkness.

NOTES

This quest is an unofficial reimagining of the official quest “Race Against Time” 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.
