| An ancient prophecy foretold of a child born in the city of Zevroozlchester with a ballpoint pen-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. You rode into the city of Bafflesbury, and met a shadowy stranger in a hooded cloak who was sitting in the corner of the local bar. He told you about the legendary Amber Lion of Beigebury Grove, which is rumored to be hidden in an ancient pyramid near the village of Ironforge, and promised you a hefty fee if you could bring it to him. Figuring he wouldn't offer you the quest if it weren't level-appropriate, you readily agreed. You had a good handle on it until you dropped your magic wand in a gelatinous cube and couldn't get it back out. Wouldn't you know it, that was when the tramps showed up. Nevertheless, you fought your way through evil overlord's dungeon, dispatching kobolds left and right, and finally arrived at the throne room of the Horror Troll Diabolico. After a long and dramatic battle, you plunged your handaxe into his lower back. The entire dungeon unexpectedly began to collapse as soon as the evil spaz was dead, but you managed to escape with your life, and claimed your reward from the grateful people of Shuntington.
