The Quest

Setup Narrative

King Donut has sent Sir Staples and the Dart Knights out for food for the feast. He expects they return with enough meat to feed the dart community for the celebration.

The woods outside the castle have many dangers including a sneaky rabid fox who lurks about. The Dart Knights set out on their long journey but lo and behold become easily distracted. They see hoof prints of the elusive Legendary Buck.

King Donut would surely be pleased with the buck as a trophy, but this distracts them from their main quest.

Will the Dart Knights return alive?
Will they return with meat for the feast?
And will they capture the Legendary Buck?

Meat Scoring

Feed the feast — works like Cricket

Close a number first (3 hits), then every extra hit earns meat for the feast. Doubles count as 2 hits, triples as 3.

NumberCloseExtra Hits
203 hits+20 lbs per extra
193 hits+19 lbs per extra
183 hits+18 lbs per extra
173 hits+17 lbs per extra
163 hits+16 lbs per extra
153 hits+15 lbs per extra

Bullseye is NOT used for meat — it's reserved for the Legendary Buck shootoff only.

VI

The Rabid Fox

Threat Meter — she lurks in the woods

The fox watches from the shadows. Poor throwing attracts her. Easy Mode: 3 threat marks = fox spawns.

Party HitsThreat Marks
0 hits (everyone whiffs)Auto spawn — ALL companions
1 hit+2 marks
2 hits+1 mark
3+ hits (closed)0 marks

The Donut Rule: If an individual player scores 0 marks on a number, the fox auto-spawns for that player alone. Face her immediately.

Hard Mode — every miss = 1 mark, 6 marks = spawn.

VII

Fighting the Fox

Hit 1 → 2 → 3 — in order

When the fox spawns, the party chooses one companion to face her. Three chances. One dart at each number:

1
2
3

0 Hits

Companion dies — out of the game

1–2 Hits

Fox retreats to the woods. She may return...

Triple on 1, 2, or 3

Companion dies — the fox was too strong

Hit 1, 2, AND 3

Fox killed! Earn Magic Darts

VIII
