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").

After surviving the perils of Castle Death and being tutored by the Elder Magi, Lone Wolf and the reader now seek out the third Lorestone.

Over the years, this fetid swamp has become the home for any number of evil creatures who seek to protect the jungle and its treasures.

To make matters worse, news is delivered that the Darklords have united behind a new leader, and may soon again bring war to Magnamund, increasing Lone Wolf's sense of urgency.
