Town Features for DangerousDelves
Town Activities
Whenever you return to Town, you may visit as many of the following locations as you can afford...
- The Grand Bazaar - to convert Loot into Gold and to spend Gold to repair, sell and buy Gear or hire Hirelings
- The House of Healing - to try to heal Combat Fatigue, Spiritual Fatigue, Magical Fatigue and Hirelings' Fatigue
- The Oracle - to try to learn INFORMATION
- The School of Dungeon Delvers - to try to improve your Abilities
The Grand Bazaar
The marketplace and magic shops of the Town contain lots of Gear. You can visit the Grand Bazaar as often as you like.
You can exchange your Loot (bulky treasures) for Gold, one Loot = 1 Gold. Gold does not take up any Gear Slots.
You can sell any undamaged items for full Gold value. You cannot sell a Hireling.
You can sell damaged goods for 1 Gold per undamaged slot.
You can buy anything you can afford, as long as you (or your Hirelings) can carry it in their Gear Slots.
You can repair any damaged Slot of Gear for 1 Gold.
Gear Hirelings
The House of Healing
Spend 1 Gold per Healing Dice for either Combat, Spiritual or Magical Fatigue. Choose which before you roll. You can attempt to heal each type of Fatigue ONCE before you must return to a Delve and attempt at least one previously unexplored Encounter (or attempt a BLOCKING card) or start a new Delve and attempt at least one Encounter. The Online Character Sheet has checkboxes to track when the Town Features have been used and are no longer available."
Roll the dice and take the highest result and consult the table below...
| 1 | Heal 1 |
| 2 | Heal 1 |
| 3 | Heal 2 |
| 4 | Heal 2 |
| 5 | Heal 3 |
| 6 | Heal 4 |
Healing more Fatigue than you have taken is wasted. Any healing that restores Combat Fatigue also stops ongoing poison.
You can spend Gold to heal a Hireling and roll dice for them in the same way
The School of Dungeon Delvers
You can visit the School of Delvers once only after completing a Delve. The Online Character Sheet has checkboxes to tick to indicate when the Town Features have been used.
Spend 1 Gold per Training Dice for one of your Abilities that you wish to increase. Roll that number of Dice and take the highest result and consult the table below.
If the result is under your current Rating in this Ability, you gain nothing from the training
If the result is equal to or over your current Rating in this Ability, add 1 to the Ability Rating
The Oracle
You can visit the Oracle ONCE only before you must return to a Delve and attempt at least one previously unexplored Encounter (or attempt a BLOCKING card) or start a new Delve and attempt at least one Encounter. The online Character Sheet has checkboxes to tick to indicate when the Town Features have been used and are no longer available.

Returning to a Delve
When you return to an unfinished Delve, you roll 1 Dice and consult the table below to see how many of the already resolved cards you must shuffle and return to the top of the deck. Kings are not usually returned to the deck if the main objective of the Delve has already been defeated (unless it was a Demon, Lich, Vampire or Troll and wasn't PERMANENTLY defeated).| 1 | Spades |
| 2 | Hearts |
| 3 | Diamonds |
| 4 | Clubs |
| 5 | Jacks and Jokers |
| 6 | Kings and Queens |
Look through the discarded pile and extract the relevant cards. Shuffle them and add them to the top of the deck (face up) and start playing them as normal except that there is NEVER any Treasure or Information until you reach the face down unexplored cards.
You cannot choose to leave the Delve again until you reach the face down unexplored cards and have attempted at least one Encounter on an unexplored or BLOCKING card.
If you have any BLOCKED Cards (as a result of GO A DIFFERENT WAY), they remain BLOCKED. You can choose to return to the BLOCKING Card but only after you have reached the face down unexplored cards and either BEFORE you turn a Card, or if you are at an Optional Challenge.
