Pathfinder Adventure Card Game: Rise of the Runelords – "Dance With Squealy Nord" Promo Card

Description

--- "Barrier" is an Elite Animal Obstacle card with Acquisition Check of 9 (Wisdom/Survival) or 18 (Combat). Defeat rewards random item loot; failure deals damage and aids an ally. Key mechanics include: - *Acquisition Check* Success requires 9 Wisdom/Survival or 18 Combat to defeat the Barrier. - *Defeat Effect* Draw 1d4 random items from the box, choose 1 for hand, banish rest. - *Undefeated Penalty* Player takes 1 Combat damage; select another character at location to draw a card. - *Classification* Designated as Obstacle, Animal, and Elite type. Barrier (Obstacle, Animal, Elite) represents a formidable encounter card demanding precise Acquisition Check thresholds: 9 via Wisdom or Survival skills, or alternatively 18 through Combat prowess. Successful defeat triggers a rewarding loot mechanic, where the player draws 1d4 random items from the communal box, strategically selects one to integrate into their hand for future use, and banishes the extraneous draws to streamline their collection. Conversely, failure imposes a dual consequence—immediate 1 Combat damage to the attempting player—while introducing a cooperative twist by mandating the selection of another character sharing the location to draw a card, potentially shifting momentum among participants at the site. ---
