Almuryk

How they play

A solid front-rank swordsman who can also cast a little: with sword +2 and agility 3, Almuryk wounds on every swing. Magic potential 1/1/2 gives only one or two spells per adventure, so pick a utility spell such as Healing or Magic Armour rather than a damage spell. Black Gate 1 is a one-in-six chance per attempt, so don't rely on Almuryk to break the Gate alone.

• Sword: wounds 100% of the time, 1.3 wounds per attack. Usable from the front rank.
• Dagger: wounds 83% of the time, 0.8 wounds per attack. Usable from the front rank.
• Resists a spell on a 1K6 roll of 1–2 (33% of the time).
• Knows 2 spells. The dominant sun decides how many they can ready for an adventure: 1 under the red and yellow suns and 2 under the blue sun. Casting costs wounds, and in a fight only the second rank may cast.
• Black Gate 1: destroys the Gate on a 1K6 roll of 1 or less (17% per attempt), and every failed attempt costs a wound.

Figures use the hero's starting stats and leave out magic items and weapon bonuses. They come straight from the rulebook tables.
