Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Ragnar's Quest: The Search is an Extra Large (144x144) underground map for Shadow of Death, rated Impossible. It has eight players, with only one human slot and seven computer-controlled colors, split into two teams. Seven colors play as Dungeon, while Purple mixes Necropolis and Dungeon and Teal mixes Dungeon and Fortress. The story follows Ragnar, whose dragon is slain, and a hero searching for a broken artifact the underground town needs. Victory requires acquiring one specific artifact, and losing a designated hero ends the game. Rock covers about 41 percent of the terrain and water about 25 percent. The map holds 35 towns, 82 mines, 46 monoliths and portals, 50 quest guards, and the Grail. Wandering monsters include many Black Dragons, and dwellings house creatures such as Beholders, Medusas, and Hydras.
