MOUNTAIN MAN

Native Relations
Mountain Men stood on good terms with certain
tribes across the Frontier. Trading with the tribes was
essential while waiting for the next Rendevouz. Some
Mountain Men took Indian wives or were even members of
a tribe themselves. In some rare cases they would be
handed a Plains Indian War Shirt which was a sign of great
respect and honor.

Learn from It
Learn from It represents the most important survival
skill of the Mountain Man. The ability to be highly
adaptable and to think and act fast was the difference
between life and death.

 MOUNTAIN MAN SPECIAL RULES
The Mountain Men represent the old remnants of the fur
trade industry. As the demand for traditional Furs waned,
Mountain Men took up work as guides helping Settlers travel West
or made a meager living as independent trappers. In these
Brimstone days, these trappers are coming back into their own
with new demand of unique and exotic skins from worlds far, far
away.
Traps
Mountain Men have perfected the
art of setting and maintaining traps. And
with quarries far larger than beavers,
traditional Traps have evolved as well.
The Trapping Tools starting Item allows a Mountain
Man to place Traps when equipped with it. A Mountain
Man starts each adventure with a maximum of 5 Trap Token
which can be used to hinder or even damage enemies. The
backside of each Trap Token is a Snared Token (-2
Initiative, -1 Combat, -1 Defense). When a monster is snared
(through the Snare skill), use the Trap just sprung as a
Snare token.
When resolving an Attack (not an Ambush!), after
revealing a Threat Card, a Mountain Man with equipped
Trapping Tools may place any number of remaining Trap
Token on free spaces within Range 3, maximum one per
space. Trap Token do not block their space.
Springing a Trap
When an enemy enters a space with a Trap Token,
this Trap is sprung: Remove the Trap Token from the Board
and roll 2D6. If you roll higher than this enemy's current
Health, its turn immediately ends: The enemy may not move
any further or perform its attack.
Enemies which suffer the Snared effect do this 2D6
roll at the start of each subsequent activation. If the roll is
ever less than or equal to the Enemy's current Health the
Snared effect immediately ends.
Recovering Traps
At the end of a fight, a Mountain Man recovers all
Trap Token not sprung and thus still on the board.
When not in a fight, a Mountain Man may
spend 2 Grit to recieve D3 Trap Token up to
his Trap Maximum (usually 5).
Fur Trader
The Mountain Man traditionally makes his living
collecting, preserving and selling Furs and Skins.
Whenever a Mountain Man kills an Void, Beast or
Demon enemy, he immediately recieves a payout of $1 per
XP gained from this enemy to represent the Skins or Furs
collected. When this enemy has a variable XP value (for
instance 10 +5), the Mountain Man recieves $5 per base
Experience Point.
Prize Quarry
The Mountain Men has an uncanny knack for finding
Prize Quarries. Unfortunately these beings tend to be tougher
than normal and are quite attached to their prize Furs.
Once per Turn, after placing new enemies on the
board, a Mountain Man may pay 1 Grit to make a Beast,
Demon or Void enemy a Prize Quarry. Place a
corresponding Token next to this enemy. This enemy has
+1 Defense, +1 Damage and 5 x posse level additional
health. Experience Points and the payout for this enemy are
doubled.
Trapper's Upgrades
When a Mountain Man kills a Prize Quarry he may
forfeit the payout and draw a Trapper's Upgrade card
instead.
There are three separate Upgrade decks for Void,
Demon and Beast enemies respectively. When drawing a
Trapper's Upgrade card, the Mountain Man chooses one of
the Prize Quarry's keywords (Beast, Demon or Void) and
draws from the appropriate Upgrade Deck.
Each Upgrade Deck contains two Upgrades which
are essentially powerful and may only be acquired if the
Prize Quarry had variable XP (like 10 + 5 XP). If the enemy
had a fixed XP value the drawn upgrade is returned to the
deck and no payout or upgrade is gained.
Trapper's Upgrades are attached to an item like any
other upgrade. Unfortunately these impromptu craftings
cannot last forever: Discard them at the end of an adventure
or if they are removed from the item before.
When you attach a Trapper's Upgrade permanently
to an item via the Wilderness Craftsman skill, make note of
the upgrade and return the according card to its Upgrade
deck. You can collect this Upgrade card again.
