Lone Wolf books rely on a combination of thought and luck.

Certain statistics such as combat skill and endurance attributes are determined randomly before play (reading).

This number depends directly on how many books in the series have been completed ("Magnakai rank").

In his quest to attain Kai Grand Master status, Lone Wolf must seek out and find 7 Lorestones.

Here, Lone Wolf is directed by friendly Elder Magi to search within the accursed fortress of Kazan-Oud, otherwise known as "Castle Death".
