At each stage a wild creature from the biome steps up. Early stages tend to front the biome's weaker species; the Showdown leans toward its strongest. On a Guardian run, the final stage shows the boss instead of a wild creature. | At each stage a wild creature from the biome steps up.

== Wins | == Wins and flees == | ||
* '''Win''' — you clear all four stages and take the run's loot. | Since [[Expeditions#How an expedition works|v0.39.0]] there's no coin flip and no outright loss: a run you're strong enough to attempt always finishes as a win eventually, clearing all four stages and taking the loot. Coming in under-geared doesn't fail the run — it just runs longer (more exchanges, more food burned), and grinding it out well past the intended gear line can leave your survivor injured even on a win. | ||
* '''Flee''' — | * '''Win''' — you clear all four stages and take the run's loot. The normal outcome. | ||
* '''Flee''' — not a choice to bail on a losing fight (there isn't one); it's the automatic swiftness-boosted escape your party attempts when you'd otherwise run out of food mid-fight. If the flee itself fails, you die instead (see [[Expeditions#Death and reclaiming gear|Death and reclaiming gear]]). | |||
