“Slick”

Lord Ulfred Krieg
-Duke of the Kriegsland Duchy and Lord of Kriegsburg.
Appearance:  6’6”, 265 lbs, brown hair and beard, brown eyes

Galan Vostok
-A character mentioned in adventures set in Jadus, this tyrant is the descendent of the famous Rath Vostok who drove the yrch from the area around Home after the local aristocrats, the Folcners, lost to them and fled.  He rules the city his ancestor founded, Vostok City north and east of Home.


There were at least three sagas:
-First was the Saga of Aceries, a strange story of an adventurer who was originally aligned with evil forces, but later forsook that path and found his way to the light.  The action took place mainly on the continent of Jadus, the first campaign land.  Aceries eventually completed his adventures and ascended to demigodhood.

-The second saga, longest of all in all likelihood, was the Saga of Verial.  This was a complicated story that involved many parts including the great struggles between the dark-aligned powers and the light-aligned powers.  The action took place mainly on the continent of Cairen, on the subcontinent of Saen.

-The third saga was the Saga of Vampyro, the tale of an assassin who capitalizes on the coming of the shadow and orchestrates the rise of a tyrannical oligarchy.  This Saga takes place in Saen, probably about 30 years after the events of the Saga of Verial ended.
