What the characters know

The characters have four minutes (20 rounds) to defeat Mordai Vell before he succeeds in crafting the scepter, causing them to lose the challenge.

Mordai Vell is located in the forge.

There are no short rests during the challenge, and the heroes have to time to perform rituals before the challenge.

There are general and challenge awards.

Due to Maegera's primordial magic, a character's fire resistance is halved while in the dungeon (this does not affect resistance to all damage, such as a goliath's stone endurance power).
