| An ancient prophecy foretold of a child born in the city of Stoatsford with a pair of glasses-shaped birthmark, who would grow up to be the greatest Wizard ever known. You have a birthmark like that, but at first you were only a sort of okay Wizard. Everyone has to start somewhere, I guess. As luck would have it, as you were passing through the land of Calamaria, you stopped at the inn in the quiet hamlet of Madlib, and heard the local barber talking about the ancient tower that the town had (perhaps ill-advisedly) been built next to, and the fantastic Gold Idol of Splitforbidden that was purported to be hidden there. Without bothering to ask why nobody had managed to recover it already, you set out on your very first quest. You had a good handle on it until you dropped your sack of doorknobs in a spiked pit and couldn't get it back out. Wouldn't you know it, that was when the kobolds showed up. However, you managed to overcome the odds (and your injuries), and after a lengthy crawl through a tomb infested with skeletons, you finally came upon the lair of the Devil King Blackfist, who was guarding the object of your quest. The evil fiend fell before your magic wand, 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).
