This is the sequel of my first forum game Potash Maker Adventure which I, uhm, let starve to death...
The game mechanics will mostly stay the same, but I changed some numbers to improve mortality:

skill checks: Whenever you apply a skill or do something tricky two d12 are rolled against each other. The success roll receives a bonus of +1 for every skill level (and other boni/mali your almighty GM choses to give you) and has to surpass the other d12, otherwise you'll fail and may die horribly.

combat: When trying to hit an enemy you* roll your weapon skill against the victim's dodge or shield using skill. If the roll is successful, you hit.
Then you* roll a d6 to determine which zone of the body you hit. Then one or more dice are rolled, depending on the used weapon, the sum is divided by the armor value of the hit body zone and rounded to determine the damage.

*Your almighty GM rolls the dice and tells you the result. No, he won't cheat. Probably.

According to the travel map you finally reached your destination. There is just one problem:
Where is the entrance?

That is the surrounding area you are able to overview:

Oh yes. Let the epic begin!

Clearly it's among the reef. Go hop from rock to rock looking for it. Or at least see if there's a way down there.

[Haspen]

Yeeeees

Follow the crutch-walker to the edge of the land and then look around. Clearly the entrace is carved into side of a cliff. That thing on the right of map is clearly a cliff.
