When you enter combat armed with one of your Grand Master weapons, you may add 5 points to your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ>. The rank of Kai Grand Master Senior, with which you begin the New Order series, means that you are skilled in the use of <em>one</em> of the weapons listed in the <a idref="equipmnt">EQUIPMENT section</a>. For every adventure that you complete successfully in the New Order series, you will gain proficiency with one additional weapon.</p>

<dd><p>Your Kai Weapon is a Special Item and it can be carried and used in addition to two normal weapons. If you possess the Discipline of Grand Weaponmastery for a weapon type which is the same as your unique Kai Weapon, you may add the Grand Weaponmastery bonus of +5 to your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ>. This is in addition to the bonus gained when you use your Kai Weapon in combat.</p></dd>

<dd><p>Food is carried in your Backpack. Each Meal counts as one item. You will need to eat regularly during your adventure. If you do not have any food when you are instructed to eat a Meal, you will lose 3 <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points. However, if you have chosen Grand Huntmastery as one of your four Disciplines then you will not need to tick off a Meal when instructed to eat.</p></dd>
<dt>Potion of Laumspur</dt>
<dd><p>This is a healing potion that can restore 4 <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points to your total when swallowed after combat. There is enough for one dose only. If you discover any other potion during the adventure, you will be informed of its effect. All potions are Backpack Items.</p></dd>

<p>The tip of your enemy<ch.apos/>s lance glances your shoulder and spins you out of the saddle to crash heavily on the rocky trail (lose 2 <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points).

But as you approach the River Ioma you are shocked to see that the bank ahead is steeply undercut.

<p>As the <cite>Starstrider</cite> begins its descent there is a startlingly loud explosion. From his nest atop the mainmast, the lookout shouts a warning and points frantically towards the ground. You rush to the rail and peer over the side, your stomach churning with fearful anticipation of what you will see. Deep within the fathomless reaches of the fissures and chasms passing below, you glimpse flashes of blue-white energy. These bolts are growing brighter and louder as they streak towards the surface. One bolt escapes from a vent in the middle distance and rips open the sky. It skewers a cluster of steam-clouds and blows them apart in a loud and spectacular explosion of gas and flame. You urge Acraban to order his helmsman to ascend, to avoid the new and deadly danger that is striking at you from below. The wizard turns to Kuo, but before he can issue the order, there is a deafening <quote>Crack!</quote> from somewhere beneath the stern.</p>

<p>You are moving along the trail when suddenly your Magnakai pathsmanship skills alert you to danger. Immediately you halt and scan the surrounding woods, fearing an ambush. Seconds later you detect the danger; it is a concealed pit which bisects the track a few metres ahead. It has been covered with pine branches and camouflaged by a thin layer of earth and stones, so as to make it indistinguishable from the rest of the trail. You warn Acraban of its position and motion him to leave the trail and skirt around this hidden trap. He obeys, but within moments you detect a second pit hidden amongst the undergrowth. You hiss a warning to Acraban to halt just as he is about to step upon it.</p>
