Monster turn

menu
Placeholder

Monsters’ decisions are controlled by a system of action cards that automate what the monsters will do on their turn in the initiative order. They are not controlled by a separate player.

All monsters will perform the actions listed on their ability card for the round in the order written. They will not move or attack unless these actions are listed on their card.

In this example the Archer would not move.

A monster will first attempt to find focus then perform each of these abilities in the order listed (if possible) and then end its turn.
