Rewards
- All members of the Golden Badgers survive: The biggest reward. Loot, renown, a solid friendship with the other group, and an open "favour" later down the line.
- Some of the Golden Badgers survive: Still pretty solid.
- None of the Golden Badgers survive: They get the loot from the dungeon.
If a player takes the role of the escapee, don't count them towards the survivors.
