Help me, these cards are not on any list ...

theclapofonehand
I bought WQ and in the box I found a series of home-made cards, who are graphically identical to the original. Unfortunately I could not tell where they were taken.
The names of the cards are:
Treasure - Bracelet of Ashain, Energy Jewel, Arkal's Powder, Deathsword, Helmet of Farseeing, Hemp Rope, The Ring of Dadaan, ,Grey Armor of Eshkalon, Gems of Life, Belt of Gagron, Dawnstone, Armour of Taakan, The Staff of Command, Hydra Sword Brooch of Power.
Event - Lightning Bolt, Ghost, Curse of Hashakk, Lost!, Daylight?, Secret Door, poison Daqrt, Mercenary, Orc Runes, Halfling, Revenant Knight, Gust of Wind.
Please,someone can tell me, where they were taken?

I'll look into it, I think I recognize some of the card names - would you be able to post photographs or scans of the cards? seeing the artwork will go a long way towards tracking them down

I keep meaning to look into this as well.
Do you have access to WQ main roleplay rulebook?  I know I've often thought about copying treasure from the dice based  tables onto blank cards for use with the basic game.  Are they listed in a different format in the main rules?  (Sorry I haven't got my copy to hand)
Alternatively, could they have been adapted from quests for HeroQuest or AHQ?  Do you have access to those games as well?
(sorry if I'm sounding a little obvious)  I don't have HQ, but I do have AHQ (no expansions) but the rules are in another house.

This is all beginning to smell like FFG's Runescape or World of Warcraft!  Those names ...

I see that you have a similar post on Boardgame Geek and someone has provided the tables from the main rulebook there (some are adapted from WH Fantasy Battles  as well).  Nice find. :)
Some of them are definitely from there.
