| At an early age, you were apprenticed to the Great Wizard Jim, but you grew tired of having to scour the floors and tidy the alchemical equipment day in and day out. So, you stole a spellbook and took off to become a Wizard on your own. You headed off into the wild wilderness of Schmalbion in search of adventure, and upon your arrival at the great city of Stoatsford you heard a town crier shouting about how the a charwoman's sexy uncle had been kidnapped by lizardmen, and the massive reward for their rescue. Not wanting to get in the way of the plot railroad, you set out on your new quest. You weren't having any problems until you got attacked by more dark elves than you could handle. You were lucky to get out of there with your elbow intact! You holed up in a small storeroom with a lockable door, and spent several weeks resting until your hitpoints were back to full. Then, keeping a careful eye out for hobgoblins, you made your way to the lair of Shadow Marquis Goldthwait and the object of your quest. You thought he nearly had you when he summoned a foul carrion crawler to his aid, but you put paid to the beast with your dagger and knocked the villain screaming into a lava pool with a well-placed kick to the eye. At last, the treasure was yours!
