| You always knew that the village of Deaf Chicken wasn't big enough for you -- after all, it was just the one hut, and it was a small one. So, when you came of age, you decided to make a name for yourself as a Fighter. (You parents never gave you a name. You were hoping for "Zachary".) As luck would have it, you found yourself wandering through the sleepy village of Piehole just as the village people (you know, the construction worker, the cop, the Indian) were beset by the evil Troll Xxyrg, who had poisoned the town's gerbil population. Against your better judgment (and with the hope of fat loot to come), you agreed to try and bring the villain to justice. You were doing a nifty job until you got your leg caught in a lava pool and had to gnaw it off to escape. Fortunately, you don't need that to be a hero... but you will sort of miss it. However, you managed to overcome the odds (and your injuries), and after a lengthy crawl through a necropolis infested with skeletons, you finally came upon the lair of the Blood Warlock Arc'klor, who was guarding the object of your quest. The evil fiend fell before your entrenching tool, and the land was finally free of his foul shenanigans. You made your way back to civilization, and basked in the glory of your success (and the reward money).
