The whole of the Land of the Five Flowers is in the debt of the Dragon Emperor, and must pay!

'The Dark Heart of the Dragon Lands' by Darran Sims.
HeroQuest adventure for up to 6 players.
Age 12+. Newcomers Welcome. Maturity Preferred.

Six years ago the Tarnda clan was abruptly attacked and obliterated by the ferocious Dragonewts for reasons unknown. The only known survivors were the clansmen that weren't there at the time.
They have occupied the Tarnda Tula since, fiercely guarding their new acquisition but haven't advanced out into anyone else's territory nor has anyone given any concern to their new neighbours for fear of the same happening to them.
Yet now there are reports that the Dragonewts have packed up and left, returning back to their city. A band of explorers and warriors have been gathered to investigate the deserted villages and to try to discover why the Dragonewts have suddenly left, why they attacked and held this land, and if there is anyone or anything left.
However the main question at the back of everyone's head is
'Will the Dragonewts return?'

+

'The Riverside Incident' by Newt Newport.
HeroQuest adventure for up to 6 players.
Age 12+. Newcomers Welcome. Maturity Preferred.

A black case, full of contraband is the key to a power struggle being played out in the Riverside district of Serris City. As representatives of the Lunar Justicar you must find that key and restore Law and order. As representatives of one of the political factions involved you must see that your faction come out top when Balance is restored.

'BAD 'BOON RISING / BEAK NO EVIL'
Being, Two Twagedies In Five Acts by John Hughes.
HeroQuest adventure for 10 players in two teams of five, and two narrators.
Age 12+. Newcomers Welcome. Maturity not necessary as silliness required!

A twin session (approximately six hours), two team HeroQuest (kinda) module by John Hughes and friends revitalised for Conception. A sort of beer-and-pretzels affair, though distinctly lacking in pretzels. Play the fweedom-loving Heortling ducks, play the imperious Lunar baboons or (shudder) team one against the other in a ruthless battle where only the Narrators walk tall.
Guaranteed full on Gloranthan silliness.

Cheers,
