A labyrinth adventure for hours of entertainment
Product
Information
In Torchlight, word of Ember blazed across the land, and the town of Torchlight flared to life. Ember is the essence of magic and the keystone of alchemy; it lures the restless with the promises of power and riches. As miners burrow deep beneath Torchlight's dirt streets for veins of the rich ore, they discover a buried past - a dangerous labyrinth of caverns and ruined civilizations, twisted creatures and the bones of those who came before. Evil bubbles up from the depths and threatens to overrun the town as the heart of a villain infuses Ember. To survive, the townspeople need a champion who can destroy the evil at its root and break the cycle of destruction.
This adventure is set in the mining settlement of Torchlight, a boomtown founded on the discovery of rich veins of Ember - a rare and mysterious ore with the power to enchant or corrupt all that it contacts. That corruptive power may have dire consequences however, and players set out into the nearby mountains and depths below to discover the full extent of Ember's influence on civilizations that have come before. As champion, you must battle through rock and fire, through lost cities and ancient tombs, into the palace of the villain himself.
