Mogmurch, still reeling from the last battle, turns to face an Ancient Skeleton. Checking his bag, he finds only a Torch and proceeds to bop the skeleton with it.
Adding 1d6 to the roll because of the location's effect Combat 8:1d4 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + 1 + (2) = 7
The skeleton, unfazed, swings its sword towards Mogmurch. Mogmurch raises his Buckler Gun and survives the assault. As he lowers his shield, he finds himself alone once more in The Old Light.
Mogmurch gets bored of the Woods and heads for The Old Light.
Wandering around the entrance he sees a Warlord. He throws a Potion of Fortitude setting it on fire with his Fiery Glare to burn the Warlord.
Difficulty of check increased by six because of the Human trait for this scenario. Adding 1D6 to my check because of the Fire trait from the location effect. Discarding Potion of Fortitude, adding 2D6. Combat 16:1d8 + 4 + 2d4 + 2d6 ⇒ (5) + 4 + (3, 4) + (1, 6) = 23 Check to recharge Fiery Glare 10:1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 Fiery Glare is discarded.
The Warlord flinches from his gaze and bursts into flames. Mogmurch blows the ashes away and steps forward.
Mogmurch prays to Zarongel for his Blessing of Bark Breaker
Recharging to explore, and taking one damage, discarding Burning Snot for damage.
A Xulgath blocks his way!

The Xulgath's tough scales deflects the blade.
Mogmurch gets wounded, and runs away to nurse his wounds.
Discarding Animalbane Dagger.

The good news is after redoing my turn I did defeat the Warlord even with the +6 to difficulty. The bad news is that I took 3 damage. My deck is down to 2 cards, a Blessing of Bark Breaker, and a Potion of Hiding

We leave somebody posted at each of the three locations where the villain isn't; they're just there to temp close to prevent the villain escaping. Exploring at those locations (and risking running into a henchman or a really unpleasant bane) isn't advisable.
Meanwhile, the other three characters explore the locations where the villain could be, hoping to find the villain. That's currently Ranzak, Tup, and Mogmurch. If people want to change assignments we can discuss that.
It's probably best if the three explorers each take a different location - one they could temp close - so that if do we find the villain we can prevent her escaping and win the game
Sounds good. I'm packing some firepower, literally, in my hand right now. Should be able to take on the baddies.
Wandering around the Village House, Mogmurch finds a scroll of Fiery Glare. Scratching his head he puts his Intelligence to the test. He sends Amfibier away to scrounge for what was left os his brain in the last battle.
Putting Amfibier on top of Ranzak's deck. Intelligence 8:1d8 + 1 + 1d4 ⇒ (7) + 1 + (4) = 12
Mogmurch figures out how to perform the Fiery Glare spell.
Mogmurch then roasts a Turtle for a snack while walking around the Village House. Discarding Turtle. He runs into a big bad Hill Giant!
Mogmurch prays to the Gobs and lobs Alchemist's Fire towards the Hill Giant. Banishing Alchemist's Fire, and discarding Blessing of the Gobs. Combat 15:2d10 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (6, 9) + 2 + (2, 5) = 24
Mogmurch defeats the Hill Giant!
Mogmurch takes a nap at a nearby hut.

@cartmanbeck I need a random card that has the Alchemical trait.
You're right. I don't have any of those skills. I do have a Potion of Vision and a Potion of Fortitude. The Potion of Vision is in my hand right now. I just hope I don't lose it. The Potion of Fortitude is somewhere in my deck.

I know Harsk's was an optional explore (unlike those Ranzak gets after accquiring a boon), but I was pretty much assuming Harsk would avail himself of the opportunity
Ranzak starts his turn by giving Zargobla a Fire Sneeze.
OK, guys - we really need to work out who does what checks when we encounter a henchman.
We need to succeed at six different checks. There are only six different checks shown on the Henchman card: Acrobatics, Disable, Fortitude, Perception, Stealth & Survival
Urgraz has a good Fortitude check, but none of the others, so he looks like a good choice for that
Similarly, Tup has a reasonable Acrobatics check
That leaves us Disable, Perception, Stealth & Survival
Tup has a card giving a one-time automatic success at a Perception check, but that would leave Acrobatics uncovered. He could give the card to somebody else, but not this round. And even then that only helps us once.
Ranzak is pretty good at Disable and Stealth - I don't think anybody else is good at those checks, though
Harsk is probably our best bet for Survival
Unfortunately, I don't think either Mogmurch or Zarlova has any appropriate skills.

Mogmurch feels emboldened, sensing that victory is near. He moves into the cabin and encounters a Spectre! Mogmurch takes out his Animalbane Dagger +1. He decides that it may not be a good idea to light anything on fire so he relies solely on the dagger. Recharging the dagger. Combat 11:1d10 + 2 + 1d4 + 1 + 1d4 ⇒ (9) + 2 + (2) + 1 + (4) = 18
Mogmurch defeats the Spectre!
I'm gonna stop right here. I won't be able to take on Vorka. Since we're endgame already and I'm hoping that I won't have to draw anymore cards, I have a Blessing of the Gobs I can discard and I can add 2d6 and the Fire trait to one combat check in my location by discarding my Alchemist's Fire.

I fear Mogmurch is having an even worse day than he at first thought
Unfortunately there's a further penalty for failing to defeat the Siren spelled out on the Monster card
Siren wrote:
If undefeated, examine the top 3 cards of your deck and discard any allies. Shuffle any remaining cards into your deck
Assuming that Mogmurch listed the cards that he drew to fill his hand in the order in which he drew them, the third card in his deck would have been an ally - the Reformarium Servant. That, too, should have been discarded (and, therefore, an additional card drawn when resetting his hand).
My goodness you're right!

Mogmurch runs into a Siren.

Not smart enough, Mogmurch takes damage.

Urgraz travels to join Mogmurch in the woods and finds LOTSOLEGS
Urgraz discards his Blessing of the gods to help Harsk with his survival check
So we have 3 other locations to close
Mountain Peak Zargobla needs wisdom dc6 base roll 1d10+1 Shrine to Lamashtu Tup needs to banish blessing Treacherous cave Harsk needs Survival dc7 base roll 1d6+1, 2d6+1 with my blessing
After that Urgraz discards +1 warhammer and discards a card form his deck (2d8+4+2d6)
Mogmurch can add (2d6) by discarding his alchemical potion of fortitude?
Harsk can add 1d4 by recharging a card
And that's not counting the fire sneezes
I believe Zargobla and Harsk have at least two blessings each if they play one each on the closing checks I think every location has a very strong chance of closing
Mogmurch attempts to move out of the cave..
Constituion 6:1d8 ⇒ 8
Mogmurch is so excited to see the sun again!
Mogmurch then heads to the woods.
He runs into a Scout in the woods.
The Scout shoots a volley of arrows at Mogmurch.
Ranged combat damage:1d4 - 1 ⇒ (4) - 1 = 3
Mogmurch buries his tattered Leather Armour after the Scout's volley of arrows. He comes away unscathed.
Mogmurch casts a Rain of Frogs and uses his Dogslicer dousing it in a Potion of Gracefulness.
Combat 10:1d4 + 3d6 ⇒ (2) + (3, 1, 4) = 10
Mogmurch triumphantly shouts at the Scout, who got squished in a deluge of frogs.

Mogmurch travels deeper into the cave. He sees something reflect the light off his torch.
Constitution 6:1d8 ⇒ 2
Mogmurch is too spooked to check it out and decides to ignore it.
Mogmurch strokes his pet Amfibier, for luck. Discarding Amfibier. He is then blinded by the light from a Holy Candle that seemed to appear from nowhere. Lacking the Wisdom to comprehend what's happening, he cowers from the light.
Mogmurch spends the night shivering in fear of what he saw.

Mogmurch has started to hate the damp cave and wants a change of adventure. Getting outside is just as much an adventure as getting in, so he asks for a Blessing from the Gobs. Using Tup's Blessing of the Gobs. Constitution 6:2d8 ⇒ (3, 1) = 4
The Gobs ignore his plea so Mogmurch grudgingly goes deeper into the cave.
Mogmurch finds a Horsechopper, but lacking the strength to pick it up he leaves it where he saw it.
Mogmurch ends his turn.

Mogmurch makes a mad dash into the Treacherous Cave.
Minutes later, he trips on something half-buried on the ground. He picks it up but inaverdently triggers the item, which makes a booming sound in the cavernous walls.
Dexterity 5:1d10 ⇒ 6Constitution 5:1d8 ⇒ 6
He dodges the explosion and somehow withstands the booming sound. He finds out that the item is a Buckler Gun, and he licks his lips thinking about the wicked things he can do with it.
He completely forgot that a Reformarium Servant came with him, and he decides to send the servant ahead to scout for danger. Discarding Reformarium Servant to explore, and add 1d4 to acquire checks.
He hears the servant squeal with glee and he rushes to its side with anticipation. He examines the potion the servant found and tries to figure out what it's for.
Craft 6:1d8 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
The potion smells familiar and Mogmurch realises that it's a Potion of Gracefulness. He thanks the servant, and thinking that it has outlived its usefulness, kicks the servant into a ravine.
Mogmurch is eager for adventure so he sets fire to a Turtle to see better in the deeper parts of the cave. Discarding Turtle to explore. He smells an awful stench and decides to follow the smell. He finds a Zombie feeding on a hapless explorer. Mogmurch brings out his Dogslicer, douses it with a Potion of Vision and sets it on fire, and charges at the Zombie. Revealing Dogslicer, and discarding Potion of Vision to add 1d6 and the Fire trait. Combat 9:1d4 + 1d6 ⇒ (3) + (2) = 5
The Zombie spews a vile liquid before Mogmurch reaches it. Mogmurch is thankful for the Buckler Gun he found earlier as he takes cover behind it. Recharging the Buckler Gun to reduce 2 damage
Mogmurch is winded and decides to rest up in a ledge where the things in the dark can't reach him.

It's after the combat check that I realised that I put the wrong weapon, Dogslicer, which uses strenght, in my deck, and that I chose the wrong location. I will have to save the blessings I have for the closing check.
