OPTIONAL: EPISODIC MODE

Arcadia Quest is intended as a campaign game, with the sce-

narios being played from the beginning in the Outer Circle all

the way to the Final Showdown at the heart of the city, with

your accomplishments in one scenario affecting the game in the

next, and with your group of heroes becoming gradually more

and more powerful. However, if a group of players desires to

simply have some fun in a disconnected way, just gathering some

Heroes and playing a scenario without greater repercussions,

they can play in Episodic Mode.

In Episodic Mode, players quickly set up their Guilds, with Heroes

and Upgrade cards in any level of their choice and go tackle any

scenario in the Campaign Book (or perhaps even come up with

one of their own). To play in Episodic Mode, follow these steps:

1. Create your Guild. This is done in the normal way, as de-

tailed on page 7. Each player picks a Guild color, the Heroes

are picked so each Guild ends up with three, and the starting

equipment from the Starter deck is dealt normally.

2. Choose Level. The players should decide together at what

level they would like to play this game, from level 1 to level

6. The higher the level, the stronger the Monsters will be, but

players will have access to more Upgrade cards.

3. Deal Upgrade Cards. For each level beyond 1, the players

are dealt Upgrade cards from all previous levels. So if playing at

level 2, only the Level 1 deck will be dealt; at level 3 - decks Level

1 and 2; at level 4 - decks Level 1, 2 and 3; and so on. Starting

with the Level 1 deck, each player is randomly dealt 6 cards from

the deck, from which he may keep only 2, discarding the rest.

The cards are not purchased with coins, the players simply choose

which ones to keep. This is repeated for all the decks accessed,

according to the game level. If at the end the players have more

than 12 Upgrade cards, they must discard the exceeding number.

4. Play a Scenario. Any scenario in the Campaign Book can

be played in this mode, just be sure to use the Monster cards at

the level that has been chosen by the group. Alternatively, you

may want to create your very own scenarios, using the modular

game tiles and coming up with custom Quests!

5. Determine the Winner. Victory in Episodic Mode is de-

termined in a slightly different way from the normal game: the

winner is the player whose Guild has the most coins at the end

of the game. Once the scenario is over, each Guild receives ex-

tra coins normally for completed Quests, and also:



Lose 1 coin for each Death Token in your Guild.



The Guild that nishes the Scenario (by completing three

Quests) gets an extra 5 coins.

Each Guild adds together all its coins, and the one with the

largest amount is the winner.

HEROES

DIVA

“If I always did what I was told, I’d

still be a peasant.”

In the tiny hamlet of Remy, Diva grew

up with visions granted by the gods. She

glimpsed the future and saw herself cov-

ered in dirt, surrounded by monsters, and

on her last legs. The warning was clear: do

not follow the warrior’s path. But Diva,

ever the stubborn heart, had a talent for

combat and an indomitable spirit. She

bore a soldier’s heart. She felt that, per-

haps, the gods were warning of something

else: death by dirt. She could see herself in

gleaming Sunguard’s armor, standing over

her defeated enemies, perfect hair owing

in the breeze. Clearly, this was what the

gods intended. She traveled to Arcadia at

age 16, enrolled in the academy, and has

never looked back. Now a full knight, she

spends hour upon hour polishing her own

weapons and armor, since lazy squires can’t

be trusted.

GREENSLEEVES

“Do you like my new coat? It’s my

complete delight.”

Greensleeves has two pleasures in life: the

sound of an arrow crossing the air, and the

feel of fresh cotton against his skin. A native

from the Daylight Woods, Greensleeves is

an enthusiastic orc hunter and an avid tai-

lor, who is very picky with the quality of the

arrows he uses and of the cotton he sews.

His aim, either with an arrow or a needle, is

legendary. Greensleeves descends from an

ancient line of Blond Elves, where honesty

and honor are sacred, knowledge and tra-

dition are passed from one generation to

the next, and the length of the hair shows

how long one intends to stay single. He

dreams one day of sewing via archery, but

the thread proves problematic to aerody-

namic efciency.

GROM

"GRRRRRRRRRRAAAGHHHHH!"

As a tiny barbarian, Grom was told that

‘practice makes perfect’, and the young

Grom took it to heart… perhaps a little

too literally. Grom prefers not to walk

anywhere. He ghts his way from place

to place. He does not eat dinner. He

conquers it! He does not take out the

trash. He forces it into exile! He does

not bathe… er, because, barbarian!

In all the world, Grom fears only one

thing. It is the greatest opponent he has

ever faced. No matter his wit, no mat-

ter his cunning, it matches him move

for move, and stalks him everywhere he

goes: His shadow.

HOBSBAWM

“… therefore it must be perfectly

obvious to even the most am-

ateur understanding of simple

physiologic processes that, when

properly applied according to the

Mendoclian Dactum and basic

Theory of Arcane Diffusion and

intoned with verbiage not at all

dissimilar to proper pyromantic

articulation, one will, inevitably

and invariably with very little ran-

domization, excepting for local

disruptions in the ley convergence

and accounting for proper celes-

tial alignments, one will discover

that any monster, particularly

those of a mortal nature and not

linked in any way to a pyroclastic

elemental effusion, will expire at

the proper ignition temperature.

Now, turning to the undead, as

both species and philosophy, con-

sider…”

--Excerpt of Professor Hobsbawm

in battle. (Just imagine what his

lectures are like.)
