Weekly Challenge Report #2 – Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Bleed?
Welcome back to our Weekly Challenge Report, adventurers!
Today, we're lovingly throwing you into the jaws of the week’s wildest modifiers and hope you survive to read next week’s. This time? The wolves are out—and they brought backup.
This week' s challenge is: Threatening Howls
It’s full of bleed, rich in gold, and dangerously slow. A fairytale gone horribly wrong.
⸻
🩸 What You’re Dealing With:
🩸 Hemorrhage: Enemies apply 2 Bleed charges that hit at the end of the turn, bypassing Buffer and Bleed Immunity. It hurts more than it should.
⚡ Energized Heroes: Every hero starts with +1 energy each turn, guess you got your dose of caffeine in!
🐢 Slow Heroes : Unfortunately, you're not winning any race today, -1 speed to your whole party. I don't make the rules.
🌪️ Elemental Monsters: All monsters gain +10% Fire, Cold, and Lightning resistance. Hope you weren’t counting on consistent damage output.
💰 Wealthy Heroes : You begin with +300 gold and shards. Great! Use it fast, before the wolves get you.
💉 Double Injuries: When you take an injury, you get an extra copy. Because clearly open wound wasn’t enough.
This is a challenge where you’ll want your healing sharp, your positioning smarter, and your defensive layers thicker than the straw house Ottis used to live in.

⚔️ Party Report – Field Notes, Day 1:
🐷 Ottis – Vital. Keeps the bleeding from turning fatal. Must protect him at all costs.
⚡ Wilbur – Sparks flying, brain humming. Slower than usual. Still irreplaceable.
🏹 Sylvie – Sharp. Focused, and everything she hits bleeds.
🦌 Bree – Unmoving, unshaken. If something’s coming for us, it’ll have to go through her first.
The woods are quiet. Too quiet. We’re 70% bleed stacks, 40% regret, and somehow still at -10% initiative.
⸻
🃏 Rewards Worth the Risk:
Reach the third act to unlock two wildwood-themed card backs and prove that you didn’t become the Big Bad Wolf’s chew toy this week.
⸻
💬 How have your runs gone? Did Ottis squeal all the way home, or did Wilbur collapse under a pile of bleed stacks?
