An adventurer is you! Complete quests, collect treasure and be the first player to defeat the dreaded Naughty Sorceress. Based on the popular MMO-ish browser-based game of the same name: http://www.kingdomofloathing.com.

Special Rules

Classes and the NS Quest

Remove the six class cards and the Naughty Sorceress Quest from the deck before playing. The Naughty Sorceress Quest is placed in the middle of the table; it cannot be destroyed and may be attempted by any eligible player. Each player selects a class to represent his/her adventurer. Class cards cannot be destroyed or traded away. Unused class cards should be set aside.

Equipment and Levels

Hats, weapons, pants and accessories are a type of Thing called Equipment. An adventurer can wear one hat, one pair of pants, one accessory and wield one weapon. The number in the corner is added to the adventurer's level for the purposes of overcoming Quests and Monsters. The adventurer begins at Level 1 and goes up in level after completing Quests and defeating powerful Monsters.

Quests, Complications and Monsters

An adventurer's primary lot in life is completing Quests. To complete a Quest, an adventurer's effective level must equal or exceed the difficulty rating (the number in the corner). An adventurer who completes a Quest gains a level, a quest mark and possibly other rewards. Other players may stymie the adventurer by playing Monsters and Complications; these cards may be played anytime and on any player, even one's self. If an adventurer fails to complete a Quest, it is usually discarded (exceptions are noted on the cards).

Trading

Once per round, a player may attempt a trade. The player may reveal any number of cards in hand. Any other player may offer to exchange cards in his/her hand or in play for any or all of the revealed cards. If both players agree to the trade, the cards are exchanged. Trading requires an Action to initiate for any player except an Accordion Thief.

Winning the Game

The first player to complete the Naughty Sorceress Quest wins the game.

Notes about the game

This game is totally untested and likely VERY unbalanced. The classes in particular are probably misbalanced. Suggestions are welcome.

More cards will likely be added in the future. There's a lot to cram into this deck, alas. I'll be adding cards in dribs and drabs as time allows.
