Seems to me that the majority of the people who've played this game have never played the first one, and there are alot of little details in this (the second) which relate back to the first. This could leave people puzzled over something as simple as a note found on theground, or a key found in a room. These are extremely interesting if you'veplayed the first, so this should help clear up all confusion with these "eastereggs". There's probably some stuff i missed, so i'll most likely end up updating it frequently with more stuff. But here it is anyways. =============================================================================== + Table of Contents + =============================================================================== I - Korhinis I.1 - Characters II - Valley of Mines II.1 - Background II.2 - Characters II.3 - Locations III - Items IV - Story from Gothic V - Legal Information =============================================================================== I + Korhinis + =============================================================================== Korhinis is the "new world" from Gothic, the world outside the barrier. This is nearly as close to a peaceful, civilized world, as oppsed to the world inside the barrier. Of course, the civilized-ness goes down the tubes once you've gotten the report for Lord Hagen; seekers, lizard men, etc. enter korhinis and terrorize the new world. Korhinis is a city of everything. Shops, trade, army, water-access, everything is there. Korhinis City has been where Paladins would rise from the Militia. Paladins would be the "sacred holy warriors" who were to fight the orcs and win the war. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I.1 + Characters + ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dexter -------- Dexter was a member of the old camp in the shadow guild. Like Diego, he was a vital key in joining the castle. In order to join the old camp, you had to get 4 votes from the shadows in the outer ring around the camp. Dexter's test was for you to obtain a recipe from Cor Kalom of the Sect Camp. The recipe was a recipe to create a super potion, and if Dexter had the recipe, he could make them himself. This required you to have a lock-picking skill. Provided you could pick Cor Kalom's chest lock and get the recipe, he would vote for you. However, he was not one of the characters who "bonded" with you. His main and only reason for voting you into the camp was because you had obtained the recipe for him. Ciphen -------- A Mercenary from the New Camp. He served little to no purpose In the Gothic story-line. He's a loyal follower of Lee, and would go anywhere with him. In the colony, he's one of the mercenarys who fancy swamp weed a cigarette that is smoked. To sway him to help you join Lee in Gothic 2, you get to help him get some swampweed. Lares --------- Back at the new camp, there were two guilds; Rogue, and then Mercenary. If you were to join the new camp, you'd start as a Rogue. Lares was the leader of the Rogues. In order to join the new camp, you'd have had to first have To accept Diego's Test of Faith. If you were to be true to the "Rogue" aspect, you'd have to be a backstabber, and take the list from Ian at the Old Mine back to Lares. He'd add to it, so The needed supplies could be robbed from the supply cart on its way to the old camp. Lares would then send you on trivial new camp quests to get you through the story line until you were elligible to join the merceneries. Lee ----------- Leader of the Mercenaries. After you are elligible to join the mercenaries, Lee will gladly take you in. To do this only requires completing objective quests. Eventually, he would reveal his past to you; He used to be A great general in the army for the king, but was thrown in the colony for being a suspected criminal. Outraged by this, he had vowed to get revenge to the judge who threw him in the colony. Once you're a member of the mercenaries in Gothic II, he will give you a quest to get the judge thrown in jail. Lee is one of the hero's "best friends" in the world of Gothic. Lester -------- Lester is a member of the Sect Camp in the swamp. He is a novice, who is also the assistant to Baal Namib, one of the influencial Gurus in the camp whom you must convince to let you join the camp. If you were to join the sect camp, you'd have to encounter Lester at some point; he's your key to getting access to talk to Baal Namib. He is one of the four allied with Diego, Gorn, and Milten in Gothic, who are trying to stop the spread of chaos in the barrier. He helps you recover a focus stone needed to blow up the ore mound at the new camp to bring down the barrier. He aids you in getting the focus stone from the Stone Fortress in the SouthEast. This is where the Stone Dragon is in Gothic II. Torlof -------- Torlof is Lee's representative in Gothic 2. In the first, he serves little purpose, other than a person with an actual name to talk to. He was a mercenary working for Lee under the barrier. Naturally he stayed with Lee after the barrier fell, and can be found at Onar's Farm to send you on quests and increase your stats. Wolf ---------- Wolf was a member of the new camp, who was an expert in bows. He could teach you bow skills, as well as sell you archery equipment. When you are given a quest which involves you going into the Free Mine to find an orc slave, Wolf asks a favor of you; get him some minecrawler plates, and he can make some "really great armor". Get him the plates, and he makes minecrawler plate armor for you. It looks odd, but is good. Then, in Gothic 2, he is there to give you a vote to get into the mercenary guild. Later, he'll be able to make minecrawler plate armor for you (again) in the game. Xardas -------- Xardas the Necromancer. Xardas is a former member of the Circle of Fire at the Old Camp, but left to study the dark arts. During your questing, you will be sent to contact Xardas by Saturas, the high magician of water, to ask him to help destroy the ore mound. Xardas claimed the ore mound was not the answer, and instead sent the hero out to find "The Sleeper", the Sect Camp's god who had turned out to be an evil arch demon. According to Xardas, with the destruction of The Sleeper, the Barrier would fall, and that it was the Sleeper's presence that change the original state of the barrier during the casting to cause it to go haywire. If you are in a Magician guild, he will give you the Necromancer robes, and various artefacts and runes. During your quest to find the Sleeper, you come across an old sword. Xardas restores it to it's original power, and the hero uses it to slay the Sleeper. =============================================================================== II - Valley of Mines =============================================================================== Alright, here's the section for the Valley of Mines stuff. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- II.1 + Background + ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Valley of Mines was called "The Mining Colony" back in the first. Often, people'd just call it "The Colony" since just about everyone knew what it was there for. In "Gothic" you are thrown in the colony, through the barrier into the Trading Square. The Barrier was constructed by 12 Magicians, 6 from the Circle of Fire, 6 from the Circle of Water. Their magic was only intended to construct the barrier, which would kill anyone trying to leave, and allow anyone in. However, when they had created it, something went wrong; The barrier expanded too far, and the magicians were trapped inside their own barrier. This is the "barrier" spoken of in the game. During the war against the orcs, magic ore was needed; and every convicted criminal was sent to the colony to mine the ore. The ore would be traded between the colony and the kingdom to obtain everyones' needs. There was initially one camp which all the prisoners worked in. Then, Gomez, a digger for the colony, gathered up a group of diggers and rebelled against the camp, and raided the castle of the camp, taking control over the camp. Afterwards, people didn't feel too secure with Gomez in charge, and broke off to form two other camps; the new camp, and the sect camp. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- II.2 + Characters + ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Angar --------- Angar, found in the Caslte of the Valley of Mines, used to be one of the great leaders of the Sect Camp located in the swamp back in the days of the colony. He had the prefix title "Cor", which symbolized his place in the camp. Those who were important and held high ranks, took "Cor" before their name. So, he was known as Cor Angar in the first Gothic. He was the high templar leader, who trained rising templar. In the sect camp, if you were to be a warrior, you'd eventually become a templar. Cor Angar could provide strength and dexterity increasements, as well as two-handed sword skills. Y'Berrior, the leader of the Sect Camp, and high spiritual leader, died during the ritual to awaken the Sleeper (see section IV for more information). Afterwards, Cor Kalom, second in charge after Y'Berrion fled, and Cor Angar took role of "leader". After the fall of the barrier, Cor Angar was knocked out, while all others cheered and left. His mind wandered, and when he awoke, he was in the castle. This is a very odd event, but this explains how he came to be in Gothic II. Diego --------- Diego, member of Sylvester's Mining Group, was a shadow in the old camp of the colony. He was the first person to help the hero out, and aided him in getting into the old camp. Diego was one of the hero's friends and allys in the colony. Diego's role in Gothic was to give the hero "the test of faith" which would test the hero's trustworthyness. He was to obtain a supply list from the old mine, which in the hands of the new camp would be a problem. After this test was completed, the hero was accepted into the camp as a shadow. Later on in the game, Diego becomes on of the four who work together to solve the crisis under the barrier. The old mine had caved in, and lost all access to ore mining. Gomez' position was threatened by this disaster, and in order to keep the ore production in line, he invaded the new camp and took over the free mine. This was the chaos that Diego was involved in, to settle it down and help the hero. There was a time when the Magicians of the Circle of Water needed to obtain the focus stones, which charged their magic power during the creation of the barrier. There were 5 total; one of which the sect camp already had. Diego assisted you in obtaining the focus stone in "Troll Canyon". After the fall of the barrier, Diego was forced to be in Sylvester's Mining Crew, and to mine the magic ore needed for the war against the orcs. Not having any other choice, he set off with the platoon back into the colony, and set up a mine. After his encounter with you, and the ore is dealt with, he returns to Korhinis, and gets revenge on the man who got him thrown in the colony in the first place, and takes up a new life. Gorn ---------- Gorn, Found in the Castle Dungeon in the Valley of Mines, was a mercenary from the new camp, under the guidance of Lee. He served little purpose to the plot until the focus stones were needed. Until then, he was only needed to get a hut in the new camp that the hero could stay in. When the focus stones were needed, Gorn could be found at the Monestary in the NorthEast, where the focus stone from the monestary was. He aided the hero in getting that focus stone. Gorn was one of the four, allied with Diego in the stop of the chaos under the barrier. After the fall of the barrier, Gorn was trying to leave, but was imprisoned in the old camp dungeon. He can be released for one thousand ore, to be of later help in the game. He can be found at Onar's Farm with Lee. Milten -------- Milten, Found in the castle in the Valley of Mines, if a member of the Circle of Fire back at the old camp. It is to be believed that he and the other fire magicians who were in power at the old camp were from the monestary in Korhinis. In Gothic, To become a member of the Circle of Fire, you'd have to encounter Milten. Either way, you'd have to have spoken with him to have the letter presented to you at the beginning of the game delivered. Milten is the apprentice to the high magician of fire, Corristo, and will do all the gofer work you need. When the time came to recover the focus stones, Milten could be found at the stone circle, waiting to help. He aided the hero in obtaining the focus stone from the stone circle. When the barrier fell, Milten remained behind to study. He also had an interest in Gorn's condition, as he was one of the four allied to stop the chaos. With the hero's help, Milten was able to buy Gorn's freedom, and return to the monestary in Korhinis. Ur-Shak ------- Ur-Shak is an ex-Orc Shamen, who had been banned from the orc shamens because he thought that the summoning of the Sleeper was a bad thing. The Sleeper was really an orc god, and the members of the Sect blidnly followed the worship of this god unbeknownst of what it really was. Xardas sends you on a mission to meet with Ur-Shak to get a way into the orc temple. Once you arrive, you fight off a squad of Orc Warriors and then Ur-Shak helps you. He adds the orc land on your map which was previously blank. He tells you to get an ULU-MULU from his friend Tarok. The ULU-MULU weapon allows the hero to walk through the orc town without being attacked. Ur-Shak remembers you when you encounter him and greets you. He wants back into the orc shamen guild, and if you've already killed Hosh-Pak from the mission given from the castle, he will despise you and all humans all over again. Grimes -------- Grimes was an elderly member of the Old Camp who'd been in the colony for ten years working as an ore digger. You meet him in the Old Mine during the Test of Faith assigned by Diego. Not much was to Grimes in Gothic, he only served for an interesting conversation to get you to know more about the history of the barrier. In Gothic II he is in a mining expedition from Korhinis to get magic ore from the Valley of Mines. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- II.3 + Locations + ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Old Camp ---------- The old camp is the original mining camp for the colony. That is where the majority of the people in the colony are. The Old Camp is located at the very center of the colony, with a big wall surrounding the outer ring around the castle. In the outer ring, that is where all the ore diggers and shadows live. The Old Camp is lead by Gomez, a rebel who got a group of rogues to backstab the excavation leader and take control of the camp. His choices did not appeal to everyone, and alot of people fled the camp to start new ones. The Old Camp is the home of the Fire Mages, members of the Circle of Fire. They are basically co-leaders of the camp with Gomez. In joining the Old Camp, you were presented with a guild such as the following: Shadow -> Guard -> Fire Mage After serving time as a Shadow, you could choose to either get promoted into the Circle of Fire or into the guards. After following the objective quests, you get banned from the old camp and are then must find residence in another camp. In Gothic II, the old camp has been laid to waste by Dragon attacks, and have totally obliterated the outer ring. The orc seige has prevented the Paladin excavation from Korhinis to leave. The New Camp ---------- The New Camp is located in the NorthWest at the big Lake. It is where the rogues and "bullies" fled to. If you wander around the camp, you'll find several people willing to beat the snot out of you. But once you find the "real" camp, it's good. Real camp means, the people who aren't bullies and are serious with what they do. That'd be the Mercenarys and The Water Magicians. It's really a cozy place once you get to like it. The New camp boasts the supply of rice; they are the only camp that grow and cultivate rice. That is their main trade export. With the rice, they can make Rice Schnapps, a form of alchohol. The leaders of the Camp are Lares, Lee, and Saturas. Lares leads the Rogues, Lee leads the Mercenaries, and Saturas leads the Water Magicians. MidWay through the story, the water mages tell you they have a plan to take down the barrier; they have been stockpiling ore, and will then focues their magic energy with the fire mages to destroy the magic ore. since the ore is magic, it will only harm the barrier. You are then sent to get focus stones to help the camp. Even once you get it, that is not enough, and you are sent to find Xardas the Necromancer. In joining the new camp, you get a guild system such as the following: Rogue -> Mercenary -> Water Magician In Gothic II, the New Camp has been covered with ice, and is now the ice region where one of the 4 dragons resides. The Sect Camp --------- The camp is located in the swamp to the East. They are a religious group who worships their god called "The Sleeper". They believe that they of good spirit will be released from the barrier by the Sleeper while the heathens will remains in the barrier. They produce swampweed; a popular cigarette made of an adbundant plant in the swamp called swampweed. That is their main export in trade. If you join the Sect Camp, often reffered to as the Swamp Camp, you will be given a guild system such as the following: Novice -> Templar -> Baal Baal is their form of Magician. They are the ones who can supposedly contact the Sleeper and have visions. Since they are not of pure magic, they are not as strong as a Fire Mage or Water Mage. The Sect camp sends you out on a mission to the orc cemetery after a vision by Y'Berrion. There, you find nothing but death and destruction that had been inflicted on previous investigations by templar. Then, this continues you along the plot of "The Sleeper". The Stone Fortress ---- Not much; was the location of one of the focus stones, and is now a dragon location in Gothic II. Lester aided the hero in the obtainment of that focus. Orc Land -------------- The area southwestward on the map is The Orc Land. This is where the orc town was, and where the temple to the Sleeper was. This is also where Xardas set up his New Tower. This is known as "Ancient Demon Tower" by the teleport rune in Gothic II. The demon found in the temple was Xardas' servant in Gothic. In Gothic II, "Orc Land" is now the area to the East behind the wall where the Monestar and Sect Camp were in Gothic. =============================================================================== III + Items + =============================================================================== Message in ------------ There is a letter from Saturas in one of the huts by Ice Region Finkregh. It is a message from Saturas saying that the barrier had fallen and they had left. Saturas is the high mage of water back at the new camp, and was co-leader of the camp. He had a key role in the completion of the quests and the game. Gomez's Keys 1+2 ------ In the castle of the Valley of Mines, you can find sets of keys that are to open "the first and second door", and then the name Gomez is written on them. Gomez was the leader of the old camp, which is where the castle was positioned. These keys have relevance to Gomez... secret. Package of Weed ------- In the Harbor District of Korhinis, you can find a building beside Brahim's, with a treasure chest that has a package of weed in it. This isn't really all that important, but swampweed was a popular thing back at the colony. DragonSlicer ---------- DragonSlicer can be found in a cave n the way to the sun circle in Korhinis. The sprite is something that is the URIZIEL sprite, only changed to remove the URIZIEL ore on the blade. URIZIEL was the uber sword in Gothic in which the hero used to slay the Sleeper. DragonSlicer is found in a floating blue aura, which makes is seems "holy" and all-powerful, and has a simmilar sprite to URIZIEL. Ore Lumps ------------- These are explained rather well in the story, but here's a bit more information; Ore was the currency back in Gothic, rather than coins. Of course, ore can be used to forge powerful weapons, and that's why it's so high in demand outside of the colony. Swampweed ------------- Swampweed grew only in the swamp of the Sect Camp which let them control the selling price since they had the monopoly. Now, it seems the plant is growing anywhere there is water. Not really impoartant, just a little tidbit of information. =============================================================================== IV + Story from Gothic + =============================================================================== The World of Korhinis is in war against the orcs. A new method for forging swords had been discovered; coat the blade in magic ore. With the layer of magic ore around the blade, it would be strong, durable, light, and easy to use. The demand for this ore had grown so high in the lands of Korhinis, the king made an order that all convicted criminals, regardless of the level of the crime, would be sent to the Valley of Mines to mine the ore. To ensure that all the convicts would remain in the valley and not escape, a set of 12 magicians were hired to construct a magic barrier around the Valley of Mines. It would let people into the Valley, but if someone tried to escape it would kill them. Something went wrong that day; the powers that defined magic went haywire, and the barrier went crazy. It expanded too far, and caught the magicians in their barrier. The magicians divided into two groups; those in the Circle of Water went one way, those in the Circle of Fire went another. The Magicians of fire went to the camp situated at the center of the colony. The old camp was the first, and originally the only camp in the colony. That's where the main power was. The Water Mages brought a group with them to make the New Camp in the NorthWest. The Old Camp focused on the collection of magic to trade with the king. Since they had the only supply of ore, they could demand whatever they wanted from the king. At the edge of the barrier, a new prisoner was brought. He didn't know it at the time, but he would be the one to save the colony from the evils inside and bring down the barrier. Escorted by a judge and a set of guards, he was on the verge of being sent in, right as a Fire Mage arrived. He demanded that the judge stop, and gave the hero a letter that he was to deliver to the magicians of fire. The hero accepted, and was cast into the colony. Upon the arival in the colony, he was met with a fist to the face by a guard from the old camp. A man showed up and shoo'd off the bully guards and helped the hero. His name was Diego. He told the hero what was of the colony, and how to stay alive. Thankful for his help, the hero went with Diego to the Old Camp, which Diego was a member of. To become a member of the Old Camp as a shadow, the lower-level "defenders" of the colony, he had to go retrieve a supply list from Ian at the Old Mine. He did so, and brought it back to Diego. Though, that was not enough to join the camp. Along with the test of faith, he must get votes from other shadows in favor of him. In getting Cor Kalom's recipe to Dexter, getting a sword for Whistler, getting Nek's amulet for Sly, fighting Karhim in the arena for Scatty, and learning theif skills for Fingers, the hero was able to obtain enough votes to join. Gomez, head of the old camp after his rebellion against the former leader, let the hero in as a shadow. His first mission was to find out what was going on at the Sect Camp in the swamp. The hero set out through the forest and arrived at the Sect Camp. Upon his arival he was told of a ritual awaken their god and leader, "The Sleeper". Lester, a novice whom is the assistant to Baal Namib, tells the Hero to go see Y'Berrion, the spiritual leader of the camp. The hero goes to the temple. He talks to Y'Berrion, and finds out that in order to hold the ritual, they need a magical focus to concentrate his magical power to contact the sleeper. Since the hero is not a member of the Sect, he asks him to go and obtain it. A novice had been sent days before the Hero's arival, and had yet to return. The hero sets off to a massive cliff overlooking the camp, and finds the novice, already in possesion of the focus. He goes insane, claiming that he had a vision from the sleeper that said he was to be his only servant, and was to get the focus stone for the sleeper. In a fit of rage, he attacked the hero but lost the battle. The hero took the focus stone back to Y'Berrion and explained what had happened. Y'Berrion will send the hero to Cor Kalom. He will then tell Hero that in order for the ritual to commence, he needs a secretion produced only by Minecrawlers. He has only found their mandibles to contain the secretion, however this is not an efficient enough supply, and he needs something with more concentrated secretion. The hero is then sent to the old mine to find a sufficient source of secretion that can be used to invoke the Sleeper. At the mine, the hero makes his way all the way to the bottom after fighting several minecrawlers the taking their mandibles. He finds Asghan, a guard for the old camp guarding a closed gate in the mine. He says the area has been closed because minecrawlers just kept comming and comming from there. In order for him to open it, he has to have Ian, the mine lord's permission. The Hero goes back to Ian and finds that for Ian to give him permission, he will need to find a new gearwheel to repair the busted ore masher. The Hero finds another gearwheel at an abandoned ore-mashing site and presents it to Ian. The Hero returns to Asghan, but still he will not open the gate. He says he doesn't want to be the only one there when the crawlers come crawling out. He wants the hero to find 3 templar from the Sect camp who are assisting in the extermination of the minecrawlers to back him up. The hero goes and gets 3 willing templar, and brings them to Asghan. He then opens the gate. After a temendous battle against a wave of minecrawlers, the hero ventures farther into the caves. He fights random bits of minecrawlers on the way in and then eventually comes to the minecrawler nest, where the minecrawler queen has been laying eggs. He slays the queen, and takes some eggs. On his way out of the mine, Drake, a guard from the old camp, tells him that for doing that, he's sure to get promoted into the guards. The hero returns to the old camp and tells Gomez's right-hand man, Raven, about all that's been going on there, and gets his promotion to the guards from leader-of-the guards, Thorus. He then heads back to the Sect Camp and brings the eggs to Cor Kalom. He gives the hero his reward, and then tells him that there is still one thing missing in order to perform the ritual; an almanac that had been lost by the Novice Talas. The hero talks to Talas, and is told that Black Goblins stole the almanac from him. Eager to get it back, Talas leads the hero to the cave which they took it. The cowardly novice refuses to go in. The hero goes into the cave and fights off the goblins and gets the almanac. He brings it back to Cor Kalom, and is then again rewarded for his efforts. He is told to attend the invokation, and that it would be held that night. He waited until nightfall and returned to the Sect Camp, and watched Y'Berrion hold the invokation. He summoned the Sleeper, and a blue aura shone from his hands as he held them above his head. He fell over a moment later, passed out. Cor Angar, leader of the Templar said that the vision was of an Orc in a Temple, which he and Cor Kalom believed hinted that the way to salvation lead through the orcs. Cor Angar says that there is a nearby temple of the orcs, where they would bury their dead warriors. Cor Angar sent a platoon of Templar to the temple, and remained behind with Y'Berrion. He asks the hero to set out to see what the word is from the Templar lead by Baal Lukor. Hero sets out for the Orc Cemetery, and gets in. After fighting a few orcs, he manages to locate Baal Lukor in a fierce battle against several Orcs. Hero joins in and helps save Baal Lukor. Lukor thanks him, and tells him of the tragedy; all the other templar have been killed. He cannot return empty-handed with those losses, so he and Hero work in the underground cemetery to find the secret that lies within. They find two halves of a spell scrool, which Lukor deciphers, and finds that it's an orcish teleport scroll. He gives it to Hero, and they walk into a "great hall". Baal Lukor feels a strange presence in this hall, and is guided to a spot on a wall, in which he tells Hero to use it. Hero uses the spell, and is teleported through the wall. He then activated the gate and lets Lukor in. They explore the catacombs, and find a tomb with a coffin, and a sword stabbed in it. Lukor gets enraged that he lost so many lives for nothing. He goes mad, and claims that Hero's non-guru presence prevented him from recieving a word from the Sleeper. He then says he must give a human sacrifice to the Sleeper so that he will be made his servant, and attempts to kill Hero. Hero fights off Lukor, and heads back for the Sect Camp and reports to Cor Angar of what happened. Cor Angar says that Y'Berrion's condition had grown severe, and asks Hero to get some healing herbs from the swamp. Hero gets the herbs, and returns to Cor Angar with them. Cor Angar tells Hero that Y'Berrion woke for a short time while he was away, and he said that Y'Berrion's last hope for escape was to be put on the Water Mages at the new camp, and that they should not attempt to awaken the Sleeper again because he thinks is an evil arch demon. Cor Angar attempts to administer the herbs to Y'Berrion, but he had died just before Hero had arrived. Cor Angar took courage, and took leadership of the camp in Y'Berrion's absence. He said normally Cor Kalom would be the new leader but he was enraged with Y'Berrion's prophecy of the Sleeper being a demon and set out with a group of templar to find his own way to awaken the Sleeper. He gives you the key to Cor Kalom's chest, which contains the almanac and the focus stone, and then sends you to the Water Mages to deliver them. Hero goes to the New Camp, and finds Cronos, Water Mage and guard of the magic ore mound they'd been stockpiling. He tells Hero of their plans to detonate the ore mound by using the focuses, which would take down the barrier. Cronos then gives Hero the password to the upper level to talk to the other Water Mages, specifically Saturas, high magician of the cirlce of water. Hero delivers the password (TETRIANDOCH) to the guards at the upper floor, and they let him proceed to Saturas. Hero gives Saturas the focus and the almanac, and tells Saturas of everything that happened at the Sect Camp. Saturas then sends Hero on a mission to obtain the remaining 4 focus stones. Hero goes to Troll Canyon and takes out a troll with Diego's help for the Troll Canyon Focus. Hero goes to the Ruined Monestary for the Monestary focus stone, and took out a young troll and shadow beast with Gorn's help. Hero went to the Stone Circle and took out an undead guard and got the stone circle focus with Milten's help. Hero went to the Stone Fortress and took out a stone golem with Lester's help and got the stone fortress focus stone. After obtaining all the stones, he brought them back to Saturas. Saturas greatly thanked Hero, but there was yet again, another element missing from the plan. The Barrier was created by 12 magicians, not 6. Saturas sends Hero to the Old Camp to convince the Fire Mages to join the Water Mages in their efforts to detonate the ore mound. Hero heads back to the old camp to find Milten standing outside the camp. He says that the fire mages have been killed by Gomez. Hero talks to Milten for a while and then learns what all happened: The old mine caved in, which was Gomez's seat of power, because he's the ore baron. With that gone, he needed something to keep his seat of power, so he sent a group of guards to raid the free mine. The Fire Mages were against the raid on the free mine and tried to rationalize, so Gomez had them killed. There are now guards stationed outside the camp, and anyone who nears the camp will be killed. Milten tells Hero to go to the south entrance to find Diego. Hero heads to the south entrance and finds Diego hiding behind a set of rocks. Diego goes into more detail on what happened at the camp and explains that Hero was banished from the camp for helping the water mages. Hero decides to go to the New Camp and warn the Water Mages of the attack before the guards arrive at the mine. Hero gets to Saturas and tells him that the fire mages have been killed. Saturas is almost at a state of hopelessness, but tells Hero to find Xardas the Necromancer. Xardas was an ex-Fire Mage who left the old camp to study the dark magic of Beliar. There was a 13th mage overlooking the creation of the barrier, and Xardas was him. Saturas says that with his help they could detonate the ore. Hero then complains that he got banished from the old camp for helping them, so Saturas welcomes Hero into the New Camp as a mercenary under Lee's Orders. Hero is told that his tower is located in the middle of orc land; of all other places "evil". Hero sets off through Orc Land, fighting several Orc Warriors, and encounters a valley. In it, he finds a Stone Golem, an Ice Golem, and a Fire Golem. He killed the Stone Golem with a hammer and takes it's "heart". He then kills the Ice Golem with a fire bolt spell and takes it's "heart". He then kills the Fire Golem with an ice bolt spell and takes it's "heart." Just outside the valley, he arrives at Xardas' Tower. He enters, and there is a demon just floating in the sky. The demon talked to Hero in his head using telepathy. He says that anyone worthy to visit his master must bring him the three elements. Having killed the golems already, Hero gives the demon the hearts, and is given a teleport rune. Hero uses the teleport rune which teleports him to the pentagram several floors up the normally inacessable tower. He climbs up a ladder and finds Xardas. Xardas tells Hero that the ore mound is not the answer to escape, and that the other Mages have been too arguous to study the cause of the barrier. Hero tells him that the fire mages are dead, and Xardas becomes troubled. Xardas tells him the secret to the barrier is in the orc temple, and that if he were to bring down the barrier, he'd have to go there. Xardas tells Hero to speak to Ur-Shak, a banished Orc Shamen. He would know how to get into the Temple. Hero ventures to the ruined temple at the top of a hill just slightly north, and arrives to a group of orc warriors attacking a lone orc shamen. Hero helps the shamen, and is thanked. Ur-Shak tells Hero the history of "The Sleeper": There were 5 Orc Shamen who tried to awaken their god, whom the orc name translates into "He who Sleeps". They built a temple for the sleeper, and then held a ritual to awaken him. Once he was awake, he took their hearts and made them undead beings, guardians of his temple. He curses all the orcs who helped with the construction of the temple. Ur-Shak tells Hero that if he wants to get in, he needs to obtain an ULU-MULU: a weapon which is a sign or courage; orcs will not attack someone who is using an ULU-MULU. Ur-Shak tells Hero to go talk to his friend Tarok in the Free Mine about getting an ULU-MULU. Having to go to the free mine anyways, Hero goes to the new camp, and finds Gorn stationed at the pass to the free mine with Cord and 2 mercenaries, planning a couter assault on the old camp's invasion. Gorn plans for him and Hero to go in and take out each guard one-by-one. They get to the free mine and take out the guarding group at the gate and enter. After taking out the guards inside, and killing several MineCrawler Warriors, Hero finds the Orc Slave Tarok. However, Tarok is sick, and needs Hero to find his medicine that he lost in the mine. Hero explores the adjacent rooms and finds the orc medicine and gives it to Tarok. He asks him about the ULU-MULU. Tarok says he can make an ULU-MULU for Hero if he gets him the ingredients: Troll tusk, Fire lizard tongue, Swampshark teeth, and ShadowBeast Horns. Hero leaves, and slays a shadowbeast, a troll, a firelizard, and a swampshark, returning to Tarok with the required things. Tarok makes the ULU-MULU and gives it to Hero. Hero returns to Ur-Shak, who tells Hero how to get inside the Temple; there is a statue that the new orc shamens worship around. If he can obtain it, he can use it to enter the temple. Hero enters orc land and crosses the bridge with the ULU-MULU out. The orcs do not attack, and let him pass through. He walks through the orc village to the temple courtyard,and finds the new shamens worshiping the statue. He killed the shamens and uses a telekinesis spell to obtain the statue, and uses it on the door. Hero enters the temple, and wanders about setting different keys and puzzles and killing random orcs. He finds 4 undead Orc Shamen and kills them, taking their weapons. One of the undead Shamen were guarding a strange sword, which Hero picks up and brings back to Xardas. Xardas says the sword has URIZIEL written on it, and supposedly it was the sword wielded by the human warrior who had originally put the sleeper to sleep. He says that it will be needed to take out the 5th shamen and the sleeper. However, it has not been magically charged. He can produce a magic formula for it, and in the meantime, he tells Hero to go to his old tower that sunk beneath the lake in an earthquake. He gives him a key to a chest which contains some special armor. Hero goes to the southern lake and finds the tower, swims underwater and gets in. He fights a hoarde of zombies, and then finds the chest. Upon opening it, he finds Magic Ore Armor, which is supposedly the armor worn by the human who originally put the Sleeper to sleep. He goes back to Xardas, and recieves the magic spell which is to be read while the blade of URIZIEL comes in contact with a powerfully concentrated source of magic. Hero goes back to the New Camp and tells Saturas that things are not the way they thought. Saturas tells Hero to just get Xardas to come. At the new camp, Hero finds Milten. He asks him a favor; to sneak into the ore chamber with him and read the spell while he puts the blade into the ore. The Water Mages would not appreciate him using their ore, and would deny him accessing it. Milten agrees, and goes to the ore with Hero. Milten reads the spell, and Hero places the sword in the ore. The blue gem on the blade lights up and swirls with magic. With it, he returns to Xardas, and he says that Hero is ready to go defeat the Sleeper. Hero goes back into the temple and finds his way to the fifth orc Shamen, and slays him with URIZIEL. He goes up the steps into the shrine, and finds Xardas standing in the center of the shrine room. Xardas tells him that he had to use all his magic power to get there, and that he knows how to defeat the sleeper; the sleeper uses the 5 undead orc shamens' hearts to live. If Hero can stab each heart with the sword he took from each shamen, the sleeper should be destroyed forever. Xardas then vanishes, and Hero goes down the hallways to the Portal Room. There he finds Cor Kalom with a group of crazed Novices, bowing before the Sleeper. Cor Kalom sends the novices on him. Hero kills the novices, and then takes out the mad Cor Kalom. The Sleeper is this huge scorpion-esque demon standing on a platform with 5 statues around him. Hero dodge the fire blasts shot by the Sleeper to each of the 5 pillars and finds the heats. He stabs each with the orc Shamen swords, causing Greater Demons to appear. He fights off the 5 greater demons, and then Gives the throat-stab to the Sleeper which causes URIZIEL to light up blue and send magical energy into the sleeper, which kills him and sends him back through the portal. Afterward, the temple began to collapse, and Hero was caught in the rubble. The barrier had fallen, and everyone was free, except for Hero. =============================================================================== V + Legal Information + =============================================================================== You may use this FAQ on any site you want, (not that i'd expect this to be of any use to any gaming site) as long as you give credit to the maker, and the host site.
