Relics are a special type of items that are unique to the campaign mode. They are double-sided with different versions of the relic on each side; one version for the heroes and one version for the Overlord. For the Overlord, the relic must be wielded by a lieutenant.

Monster & Universal Relics

Two new Relic card types are included in the Manor of Ravens expansion: monster relics and universal relics. Except where noted here, these relics follow the normal rules for relics. Each of these relic types is designated by an icon on the lower left of the Relic card. Monster and universal relics cannot be wielded by lieutenants.

Monster Relics

Monster relics are wielded by monster groups in the same way regular relics are wielded by lieutenants. During setup of each encounter, the overlord chooses which monster relic (if any) each of his monster groups will wield. Each monster group can wield only one relic. The overlord places the chosen Relic card next to the monster group’s card. The monster relic remains there until the end of the encounter, even if all monsters in that group are defeated. A monster relic has no effect if it is not wielded by a monster group.

Universal Relics

Universal relics are not wielded. Instead, each time the overlord receives a universal relic, he places it in his play area, where it remains for the rest of the campaign. The overlord can use universal relics by following the instructions on the card.
