If you already know Epic Encounters, you’ll be familiar with our detailed boss and enemy minis, bringing chaos to tabletops far and wide. 

(And if you don’t know Epic Encounters yet, you can find out more here.)

For The Gem in the Barrow we thought ‘why stop there?’ and — for the first time ever, — included player character minis in an Epic Encounters set! 

Yes, our talented sculptors turned their talents to creating five brave player character minis — inspired by the evocative, dark fantasy setting of Symbaroum and ready to take on this tense heist adventure. Their motive? That's for you to decide.

Meet the Priest

Every adventuring party needs a fearless magic user! This versatile mini can be played as any number of magic user classes across 5e and Symbaroum systems.

Found in Epic Encounters: Ruins of Symbaroum – The Gem in the Barrow, the Symbaroum priest mini is ideal for keen spell slinging players. And with a heist between them and an ominously powerful gem, you can bet they’ll want to join the party.

Will you use their powers for good, or become corrupted by the dark magics of Davokar? You decide what calls this powerful magic user to the darkest depths of the forest. Add this caster to your party and work your magic as you stealth or battle your may through this challenging encounter.

What is the Gem in the Barrow?

The first of two roleplaying sets that make up our Ruins of Symbaroum collab with Free League, Gem in the Barrow is a tense heist adventure set against the mysterious, folkloric Forests of Davokar. 

As the Game Master you’ll love keeping your players on their toes in this tense heist adventure. Especially as your players aren't the only ones vying for the gem. Will they choose combat or collaboration as they come up against the Barbarians, Goblins and Elves also seeking the same magical artifact?

The best part? Your prep work is basically zero — just grab the set and start weaving a dark fantasy adventure as if you’d planned it (we won’t tell).

As a player, you can choose your player character mini to send into this caper. But beware your competition. Three rival factors are ready to race or battle for the gem. Will your party prevail?

Gem in the Barrow is out now, and we’ll be spotlighting more of the player character miniatures in future articles. In the meantime, make sure you join the Steamforged Discord to hang out with us and other roleplayers.
