Game Details

One of the crew of Ponce De Leon that explored the wilds to discover the Fountain of Youth, the Cursed Eternals succeeded in their quest for immortality, but at a grim cost. By drinking the Fountain's water, they were granted eternal life, but live out their days in a constant state of withering away, gaunt and pale. Only by cutting down Enemies with his tainted Ghost Blade, and stealing the life essence from his foes, can the Cursed Eternal hold his deterioration at bay. A full new Hero Class for the Spanish Conquistador theme, the Cursed Eternal Kickstarter Exclusive Promo Hero is not part of the Conquistador Team Heroes, but rather a stand-alone Hero Class in his own right. This means that he has his own unique Abilities, Starting Upgrades, and Skill Tree, but he does not benefit from all the synergy that being part of the Conquistador Team Heroes brings. For instance, the Cursed Eternal is still considered a Conquistador for Team Ability cards, but he does not generate any of these cards for the Hero Party, he must rely on the cards that the other Conquistadors bring to the group. Having drank from the Fountain of Youth, the Cursed Eternal is blessed and cursed with immortality. Taking Hits every turn (more so as the Darkness grows stronger on the Depth Track) from the withering effects of the curse, he must fight to stave off the deterioration, consuming the souls of his foes with his magical Ghost Blade to heal. Even if KO’d by Wounds, he can automatically Recover at the start of the next turn, rolling for Injury and Healing as normal, and Recovering a Grit, as he stands back up from even the most grievous of injuries! Carrying with him a small amount of the Fountain Water in a bottle, he can drink from it once per Adventure to Fully Heal and remove all Injuries, Mutations, and Status Effects that have built up on him. Of course, Madness is another story. Includes Cursed Eternal Character Sheet, Game Cards, Upgrade Skill Tree, Rules Sheet, 1 Female Cursed Eternal Miniature, and 1 Male Cursed Eternal Miniature, with 30mm bases. —description from the Kickstarter campaign
