Michael, Krystal, & Anastasia find themselves magically transported from their homes and points in time to the

world
of Palladium. Valshea, an elf, befriends them and they begin down the road of a great adventure. Their first stop is the
town of Ac. A small town with little to offer but not far away from Ac lies Nar-Gash-Tor a kobold fort that is now the
home of a band of raiders led by a Mind Mage named Raznor. The group was hired by a man named Morgan to
retrieve some religious artifacts that were stolen by the brigands. While trying to gain entry to the fort they stumbled
upon the surviving Kobolds now living under the Kobold Road. Making a deal with them for Kobold master crafted
weapons and armor the adventurers set out to find the druid that the Kobolds spoke of to see if he knew of another
way into the neigh impregnable fort. Finding the druid was not too hard but alas he knew nothing but did recommend
that the team head toward the nearby lake and seek out the Merrow that lived there. The Merrow was also easy to
find, sunning herself in the light of the dawn. The Merrow agreed to help with one request, that the team go to the
Water crest hills not far away and bring her an armload of the water crest that grew there. Michael, Krystal, & Anna
went and harvested 3 armloads for the Merrow and one for themselves, they also found a cave in the growing place of
the crest where an adult Nightstalker Dragon was found sleeping. Wisely they decided to let it sleep and return later
to finish the beast off. With the aid of the Merrow they did gain entry to the fort through a secret underwater entrance.
Attacking from the inside the brigands and Raznor were of little challenge.
A few days later back at Ac, the group was approached by a stranger who said that his employer had heard of their great
deed at Nar-Gash-Tor and was wanting to hire them. They would need to ride to the city of Aracho to the Platinum
Sword Inn and Tavern and sit at a table with a black dragon statue and they would be found by the employer and
offered a job. They set out to the town and before going to the Inn they did see to it to take care of some business they
needed to do. Shortly after getting to the Inn and to the table the employer did arrive and made her offer. A simple job
go to an ancient tomb and rob it all she wanted from it was an ancient item known only as The Cauldron of
Obedience the group could take all they could carry from the Tomb of Gersidi. On their first day there they did make
several great finds leading to great potential wealth. If they can survive the cursed lands of Gersidi. That night it
became obvious that it would be no cake walk as Krystal was bitten by a vampire. Now the team heads down into the
Tombs of Gersidi to find this vampire and make him pay for tainting their friend. In the tombs they have found
several special items: Deathkiss a rune sword that is scary to say the least Death is the softest kiss, a fabled
doubling sword, the Hammer of Jejua a holy weapon of the red god. Still the vampire is at large but it will fall to
them.
After about 3 days the group had successfully cleared the tombs. They were successful in killing the vampire Gersidi
and freeing their friend from his control. Also in the tombs Krystal obtained The Sword of the Elements an ancient
rune weapon of great elemental power. They would travel to Credia to sell their finds and also gain a measure of
fame. While in Credia Michael joined the Guild Hall of the Soldiers of Fortune, a mercenaries guild, from them
Michael learned to become a Long Bowman. Krystal would also join this guild as well as the mages guild. They must
return to Ac or more specifically to the Tor where their Kobold friends have weapons and armor waiting for them.
Krystal must also return to Aracho for she had a Dwarven tinkerer building a special set of master craft Daisho, 2 sets
actually 1 for her and 1 to give to Michael for graduating from her training of Shi Ba Ban Wu Yi. They also plan on
killing the Nightstalker Dragon they found near the Tor. They headed out and did indeed kill the dragon and gained
even more respect from the Kobolds of Ac, Michael delivered a claw from the dragon as a gift and sign of its defeat.
On their way back to Credia they took a side track to an ancient temple of evil to free the spirit of a dead paladin from
a cursed well. Then they returned to Credia.

Back in Credia Michael & Krystal placed the head of the Dragon on the wall of the main entrance chamber of their
guild hall to be a representation of what this guild would be capable of. Michael also placed a claw from the dragon
in the meeting hall of the guild to help inspire the other guild members. Michael and Krystal were raised to the
Circle of Founders the inner circle of the guild though they themselves were not true founders their deeds already
were making the guild famous. For this they were rewarded with this promotion. Then the group went to the
alchemist and sold the remaining body parts of the dragon for a tidy profit. After 2 months of searching Michael still
came up empty on finding a location for the guild to expand into. Valshea talked with her father and he then in turn
talked with the king and 100 acres of royal land was set aside for a training/living area for the guild. Michael then
spent 2,000,000 gold on hiring a construction company to build the absolute best facilities they could, they had only
charged him 500,000. Then while Michael was reporting this to the guild he received a summons to the Barracks of
Rurga. When he got there he was informed along with his friends of a theft at the HQ of these temples Dane Rurga.
They set out almost instantly to head off the thief before he could reach the town of Kaash. The thief a member of the
Triad Assassins Guild was also a changeling. While they waited for the thiefs arrival Michael was struck down by a
strange pain in his gut. A stranger walked into their camp and in 1 stroke gutted Michael slaying him where he knelt.
Anastasia and Krystal noticed this and charged Michaels attacker. The attacker defended himself but was knocked
back, Anna and Krystal were caught by surprise when Michaels body suddenly was enveloped with electrical energy.
Anna was struck hard from behind, Krystal drove the mysterious attacker back only to see her grasshopper stand to
his feet ALIVE! The stranger then issued a challenge to Michael for 1 on 1 combat. Michael was only too happy to
oblige, the fight was hard but brief as Michael unleashed his fury and rage at being caught by surprise. When Michael
had dropped the stranger as he was getting ready to deal the same blow the stranger had threatened him with Anna
was yelling for Michael to take the blighters head. After Michael cut the strangers head off a strange energy flowed
like a living liquid from the stump of the neck and drifted towards Michael. Michael then absorbed this energy and
learned what he was a Highlander Immortal. On the following day the thief approached the group stopped him and
Michael while invisible snuck on to the back of the covered wagon and searched it. He found the stolen sword and
tome, and the group captured the thief and then returned to Dane Rurga. Once there they returned the items to their
resting places and were offered whatever they desired as reward. The group said they would accept whatever the high
priest deemed worthy. This act impressed Rurga and she lifted the group up to her plane and gave them their reward:
Michael was given a legendary rune broad sword Bane and a griffon, Valshea was given a legendary rune ax
Azuredge and a griffon, Anna was given a winged unicorn, Krystal was given a griffon and made aware of part of
her future. After this they were returned and the high priest invited them to join in the summer festival. During this
time Michael, Krystal, & Anna were brought before Heimdall guardian of the rainbow bridge Bifrost. Annas quest
for knowledge had reached this Norse gods ears and he summoned them to him. He explained of the dangers
involved and they each went ahead and accepted the risk. Anna impaled by Excalibur, Krystal impaled by her new
found Sword of the Elements, and Michael impaled by Bane to the world tree yggdrasil. They survived and were
given the Gift of Knowledge, this also caused Krystals Becoming.

After completing the games at Dane Rurga the group went to find Valsheas castle. It is located in the mountains known
as The Scar right across a branch of The Old Kingdom River from an ogre village. Stopping in the village the
group learns of the church of the scar & that a tournament for this church is going to happen shortly. Valshea acting as
priestess and the group along with a new friend Omega, an elf from another dimension, then joined in this tournament
and while waiting for its day to arrive they explored Valsheas castle. There they found a Lich, a horrid foul creature
that caught them by surprise and much to Michaels chagrin was dispatched before Michael could join in the fray. In
the Lichs private chamber they found all his spell notes, books, & research and 2 new circles. They all experimented
with one of the circles and all were changed mostly for the better. Michael took the spell stuff and copies of the
circles to the Alchemist Behanu back in Credia to study them, Michael & Krystal also talked Behanu into allowing
them to leave a duplicate of themselves behind to learn what Behanu learned from the writings. The ogres celebrated
Valsheas arrival as their new liege, since they lived in fear of the Lich, and quickly set about to help clear & clean the
castle. The following day Michaels sister Stacy appeared in the river splashing and sputtering, Anna telekinetically
saved Stacy from drowning and Stacy then joined her brothers side. On the week of the tournament the group won
contest after contest, at mid-week they even defended the village from a rampaging Great Horned Dragon. The beast
retreated but returned for revenge on the final day of the tournament. Pretending to be the champion of the opposing
team when the battle was to commence the beast showed its true form and was quickly relieved of its existence.
There was 2 weeks worth of celebrating Michael missed the first week as he was too busy gathering the dragons
treasure horde from its pocket dimension. As champions the group began to explore the mountains as was the custom,
and encountered a village where changelings were hated and hunted with a vengeance. Along this touring they
encountered a Rahu-man farmer and were given directions on finding a lonely titan. When they found the titan he
explained of a lost friend and begged the group to go to a secret valley and see if it was possible to save his friend
from the accursed Crystal Magic they had found there. The group agrees and goes on the trail as described by the
titan to this hidden valley. The valley is well guarded and highly paranoid of inhuman monsters, the group is taken to
a holding area where they are tested to see if they will keep the secret of the valley. Anna, Valshea, Krystal, & Omega
fall victim to the Mind Mages hypnotic suggestions, this is found out by accident and with Stacys help the group is
quickly freed from the influence. They meet a elven mage named Archie, and are taken before the Crystal King.
The king gives them a chance to prove their worth, they are to slay the Beast Dragon that attacks the valley from time
to time. They go out and do so in record time, earning their place as aids to Archie. Archie wants to find the resting
place of the Perstida Kings and see if his hypothesis, that all 13 generations were changelings, is correct. They find
the tomb and after fighting with some pesky ghosts they learn the truth, Archie was correct. Archie is also made
aware of how blinded he has become and that a friend of his on the edge of the world is in need of assistance. They
go back and remove the Crystal King from his castle returning him to his friend the titan, help with evacuating the
civilian populace of the valley and robbing 1 of the treasure rooms of the castle. They then return to Valsheas castle
with Archie, his ex-wife & her son in tow. Michael gives her some money to make a new road house and then they go
off to help Archies friend. They go all the way to an island that is within sight of the Edge of the World, aka the
wall, which is at the moment of their arrival a seething wall of destruction that is literally sucking anything &
everything into it. The island is the last refuge for changelings but is now in danger, an evil changeling has arrived
and is promoting an offensive attack on the rest of the world. Nearly 1/2 of the island population has fallen for his
treacherous babbling. Michael suspects Archies friend has a connection to this evil but doesnt prove it until Archie
makes the discovery for himself. Archies friend, a changeling suffering from multiple personality syndrome, IS the
evil being. They are able to bring his friends personality back to the fore and use psionics to remove the MPS as well
as erase any knowledge he had of the circle that changed the wall into the world consuming vacuum it had become.

They return to Credia where Michaels boat is finished and he now hires a crew for it. They sail around the world as a
merchant vessel making stops in the port of Southwatch where they are asked to go and save a group of spies from
the clutches of a Wolfen legion. Then on to Byzantium where they are asked to take supplies to an outpost lumber
camp. At the lumber camp they hear tails of an ancient pirate and a young Wolfen pup claims to have seen their
treasure cave. They agree to help the pup carry out all the loot in exchange for an even split of the treasure. On the
way to the cave they encounter another tribe of Wolfen and after an exchange of gifts are now considered allies of this
tribe. They find a skeleton of a Wolfen where the pup thought the cave was and the skeleton has a rune sword
Mindprancer. The skeleton is still alive, at least its consciousness is still alive, it begs for the release of death. The
group agrees to help it and they are told the sword knows where the pirate cave is and that it must be replaced on its
table in order for its hold on him to be released. It also warns of the swords evil curse of Immortality and continuous
awareness. When they reach the cave Michael places an Impenetrable Wall of Force to keep the ocean out of the cave.
They enter and place Mindprancer on its table. Then suddenly without warning Omega does a stupid, no make that
idiotic, no moronic, no ah I got it: STUPID-IDIOTIC-MORONIC-BONEHEADED-MINDLESS-BRAIN DEADRETARD of a blunder he picks up Mindprancer and claims it as his. Michael fails in his attempt to prevent it from
happening & the group cant talk Omega into placing the sword back on its table. So they go and begin to search for
treasure. They find instead Vampirella and her pirate dogs, Vampirella their employer for the Tombs of Gersidi the
Pirate Queen that attacked them on their way to the island on the edge of the world, now she stands in their way to
amass a great treasure. Captured and at her mercy (note: mercy um I dont think she really knows what that word
means) she taunts them and teases them until one of her pirate underlings grabs a cursed demon black sword. He is
instantly transformed into a monster of unknown power, Vampy wisely frees her captives and Michael fells the foul
beast with a single mighty sweep of Bane sheathed in a fire of Michaels creation. As reward Vampy makes an offer
the group gets to have all the treasure of the cave and their lives if they give her Mindprancer (note: maybe she does
know the basic concept of mercy after all.NAH!) Omega agrees and gives her Mindprancer, the party takes all
the treasure found in the cave and even takes the cursed demon black sword to keep it from falling into the wrong
hands. After this they travel to the island of Y-Ota and the town of Bletherad, Michael wants to see the Library of
Bletherad. There they learn much and spend several weeks going over and reading the texts contained there in.
Michael and Krystal both make a duplicate to stay behind and read the entire library. Then the group left Y-Ota and
headed back to Southwatch to load more cargo and head to the Western Empire en route they stopped in the city of
Llorn where evil happenings were afoot. A Raksasha was scheming from the shadows and gaining influence over the
ruler of the city. The group did some spying and then made contact with the Duke and in a matter of a few days (2)
made the Duke aware of the Raksashas presence. Now with everything going smoothly in Llorn they are ready to
head out to sea again back on their trip to the Western Empire.
Upon reaching the Western Empire they ported in Caer Itom. There Michael, Anastasia, Krystal, Valshea, Stacy set up 2
bank accounts each, with 100,000,000 gold each & Omega set up 1 account for 100,000,000. This caught the
attention of Emperor Itom and they found themselves invited to appear before the royal court. When they went before
the court Michael met Llasha Itom the emperors sister. The group was given royal treatment and soon found they
were needed to aid the emperor with some problems on the Old Kingdom frontier. While trying to settle the problems
Michael & Valshea also went on an adventure to try to find the pieces of Castlerake. Michael ended up stealing 3
pieces from The-One-Above-Alls treasure room, right in front of that ancient lich to boot. Michael & Valshea now
knew where the lichs castle was and how to get there, plans were being formulated to bring about the downfall of the
Triad. Michael & Valshea while out on this adventure also found the treasure vault of Tesuan which required the
Hand of Tesuan to open it. So the team left duplicates behind to run things on the frontier and went to find the hand
on grimbor island. Instead of finding the hand they found the Soul Gem which claimed Anastasia and Nigel before it
could be claimed. The group then went to a secret workshop of Vandergast Darkshard where they gave the Soul Gem

to that ancient master of the arcane works. Vandergast then freed Anna and Nigel from the gem. Next they went to the
island of the cyclops to gain the hand. While there they saw Vampirella was also at the island, Michael knew this was
not good. Why would she be here of all places simply to buy provisions? No she must also be searching for the hand,
Michael and Ana sent duplicates to inspect the capitol city of clops and found a plain jar that contained a demon beast
that wore the hand. After defeating the beast a duplicate of Michael volunteered to put the hand on to unlock the
treasure vault. Inside they found a great treasure and wealth of knowledge, including the remaining 2 pieces of
Castlerake. With this finished they returned to the frontier and Michael began a peace talks with the non-humans of
the old kingdom. The Lich was not through with them yet and attempted to sabotage the peace effort this failed
thanks to efforts on the part of the group. Then one day 4 days after the attempted sabotage, the ogre warlord and the
group met for a last meeting. This meeting forced the Lich to play his hand and attack both sides. The Lich in his
arrogance took the field of battle along side his minions and was seen by Michael. Michael split off some dupes and
they launched a combined annihilate assault on the Lich. This assault took the Lich by surprise and inflicted some
damage, the lich returned the favor on Michael. Anna and Valshea split off all their duplicates and the dupes launched
an attack that destroyed the lichs body and turned the area where he stood into a crater. The group then leaving 1
dupe behind each to maintain order on the frontier went to the Lichs castle to finish the fight. They found many
treasures and Michael was able to rob the treasure room of quite a bit of its money. After a brief visit to the Land of
the Damned Michael and his friends were able to defeat the lich again and destroy him permanently. The group then
found themselves in front of a Board of elder gods as it were. The gods informed them they had done a great favor
and were entitled to a boon but they needed to make their request quickly. Michael requested that the gods give him
what they felt was appropriate, Stacy asked for her mind to be opened for even more psychic powers to develop,
Beauty asked to be able to cast the spells use psionics & heal like Michael could, Anastasia asked for the wisdom to
be more like King Arthur, Valshea asked for the chance to be able to have children at least once in her life, Krystal
asked for, and Omega asked for.
With the frontier taken care of and the lich destroyed they have a few places left to visit the place of magic is one such
area. Michael will make sure his duplicates are in place and ready to live without him as he feels he is soon to be
heading home. At the place of magic they found a cult group that was trying to awaken a sleeping old one. They were
nearing completion when the friends found them. Michaels team was able to defeat the cult and summon the angels
that were needed to send the beast back into its eternal slumber. Shortly after this Michael found himself back on
Atlantis back at the exact moment in time when he left.
