| When you were growing up in the little town of Sudoku, you always wanted to be a mighty Ranger. You ended up being a Fighter instead, because you didn't have the right prime requisites. At the tiny tavern on the outskirts of the Village of Quirm, you were trapped in a conversation with a man who had clearly had more than his fill of barley pop. He told you about the great plague of cats that had beset the entire region of Crunkleford, and of the rumor that the evil Lawyer Goldthwait was the source of the unpleasantness. You resolved to find the villain and dispatch him, mostly to get the drunk guy to shut up. Everything was hunky-dory but you soon were confounded by a fiendish depants-the-wizard puzzle, and by the time you figured out to solve it, you were livid as an underfed boa constrictor. But, unwilling to let that keep you from glory, you gritted your teeth and wielded your handaxe, and cut your way through the hordes of skeletons that stood between you and your goal. At last you found the lair of Grim Sorcerer Evilthing, who quite unexpectedly turned out to be your long-lost stepsister, but you killed the creep anyway. And thus was the land freed from tyranny, and you earned yourself a fat reward!
