You are Lone Wolf
In The Deathlord of Ixia, you must journey to the forbidden city of Xaagon
There is some confusion around the use of the term Old Kingdom
in this book. Although the native Ixians are often described as belonging to the time of the Old Kingdoms
(Section 152), it is clear from the fact that the Deathlord destroyed them during the Age of Eternal Night that they could not have existed during the Age of the Old Kingdoms which began more than 1000 years after the Age of Eternal Night ended. (See The Magnamund Companion, Magnamund Then and Now
.) The author may have used the term Old Kingdom
to refer to any humanoid nation prior to the appearance of the Shianti.
You are Grand Master Lone Wolf, last of the Kai Lords of Sommerlund and sole survivor of a massacre that wiped out the First Order of your
It is the year MS 5077, twenty-seven years since your brave kinsmen perished at the hands of the Darklords of Helgedad. These champions of evil who were sent forth by Naar, the King of the Darkness, to destroy the fertile world of Magnamund have themselves since been destroyed. You vowed to avenge the murder of the Kai and you kept your pledge, for it was you who brought about their downfall when alone you infiltrated their foul domain

You vowed to avenge the murder of the Kai and you kept your pledge, for it was you who brought about their downfall when alone you infiltrated their foul domain
In the wake of their destruction, chaos befell the Darkland armies who, until then, had been poised to conquer all of Magnamund. Some factions which comprised this huge army, most notably the barbaric Drakkarim, began to fight with the others for control. This disorder quickly escalated into an all-out civil war which allowed the Freeland armies of Magnamund time in which to recover and launch a counter-offensive. Their commanders exploited the chaos skilfully and secured a swift and total victory over an enemy far superior in numbers.
For seven years now peace has reigned in Sommerlund. Under your direction the once-ruined monastery of the Kai has been thoroughly rebuilt and restored to its former glory, and the task of teaching a Second Order of Kai warriors the skills and proud traditions of your ancestors is also well established. The new generation of Kai recruits, all of whom were born during the era of war against the Darklords, possess latent Kai skills and show exceptional promise. These skills will be nurtured and honed to perfection during their time at the Monastery so that they may teach and inspire future generations, thereby ensuring the continued security of your homeland in future years.
Your attainment of the rank of Kai Grand Master brought with it great rewards. Some, such as the restoration of the Kai and the undying gratitude of your fellow Sommlending, could have been anticipated. Yet there have also been rewards which you could not possibly have foreseen. The discovery that within you lay the potential to develop Kai Disciplines beyond those of the Magnakai, which, until now, were thought to be the ultimate that a Kai Master could aspire to, was truly a revelation. Your discovery has inspired you to set out upon a new and previously unknown path in search of the wisdom and power that no Kai Lord before you has ever possessed. In the name of your creator, the God Kai, and for the greater glory of Sommerlund and the Goddess Ishir, you have vowed to reach the very pinnacle of Kai perfection
With diligence and determination you set about the restoration of the Kai Monastery and the training of the Second Order recruits. Your efforts were soon rewarded for within the space of two short years, the first raw recruits had graduated to become a cadre of gifted Kai Masters who, in turn, were able to commence the teaching of their skills to subsequent intakes of Kai novices. The Kai Masters rose to their newfound responsibilities readily, leaving you free to devote more of your time to the pursuit and perfection of the Grand Master Disciplines. During this period you also received expert tutelage in the ways of magic from two of your most trusted friends and advisors: Guildmaster Banedon, leader of the Brotherhood of the Crystal Star, and Lord Rimoah, speaker for the High Council of the Elder Magi.
-In the deepest subterranean level of the Monastery, a hundred feet below the Tower of the Sun, you ordered the excavation and construction of a special vault. In this magnificent chamber wrought of granite and gold, you placed the seven Lorestones of Nyxator, the gems of Kai power which you had recovered during your quest for the Magnakai. It was here, bathed in the golden light of those radiant gems, that you spent countless hours in pursuit of perfection. Sometimes alone, sometimes in the company of your two able advisors

At this time many changes were occurring beyond the borders of Sommerlund. In the regions to the northeast of Magador and the Maakengorge, the Elder Magi of Dessi and the Herbwardens of Bautar were working together in an effort to restore the dusty volcanic wasteland to its former fertile state. It was the first tentative step towards the reclamation of all the Darklands. However, their progress was painfully slow, and both parties were resigned to the fact that their efforts to undo the damage caused by the Darklords would take centuries to complete.
Elsewhere, throughout Northern Magnamund, peace reigns victorious and the peoples of the Free Kingdoms rejoice in the knowledge that the age of the Darklords has finally come to an end. Readily men have exchanged their swords for hoes and their shields for ploughs, and now the only marching they do is along the ruts of their freshly furrowed fields. Few are the watchful eyes that scan the distant horizon in fear of what may appear, although there are still those who maintain their vigilance, for the agents of Naar come in many guises and there are those upon Magnamund who wait quietly in the shadows for the chance to do his evil bidding.
Already your newfound skills have been tested against Naar
My lord, do you wish me to go to Ixia
you replied, expecting Rimoah to affirm your assumption.
Partly so, my lord,
he said, holding you with his steel-grey eyes, but I fear that already it has fallen into the hands of an enemy
You faintly remembered having heard this name before but were unable to recall any detail. Lord Rimoah, seeing that you were unable to give an answer, obliged with an impromptu history lesson:
-The Deathlord of Ixia was once lieutenant to Agarash the Damned
said Rimoah, his head bowed as he paced the granite floor of your vault. During the Age of Eternal Night he conquered much of Northern Magnamund, including the realm of Ixia which was once a rich and very fertile land. He destroyed the native Ixians, transforming them into a legion of undead servants under his command. Many centuries later, when my ancestors defeated Agarash during the Age of War, they magically imprisoned the weakened Deathlord in a secret tomb within the dread city of Xaagon, near to the southern coast of Ixia. For thousands of years his tomb lay undisturbed until the first of the Drakkarim appeared on Magnamund. They entered Xaagon and found the Deathlord

During the Age of Eternal Night he conquered much of Northern Magnamund, including the realm of Ixia which was once a rich and very fertile land. He destroyed the native Ixians, transforming them into a legion of undead servants under his command.
My lord, are you telling me that the Deathlord of Ixia is now free of this prison and in possession of the Deathstaff?
you asked, fearing Lord Rimoah
Yes, Grand Master. I
For hours, you and your trusted advisor deliberated over what could be done to prevent this unspeakable disaster from befalling Magnamund. You considered a muster of the Freeland armies and an immediate attack upon Ixia, but such a plan simply could not be executed. The peninsula of Ixia is far too remote and desolate a territory to be reached by any Freeland army on foot, and, with winter already so far advanced, any ship-borne invasion would be doomed to fail. Time was also against you. The Deathlord had to be stopped as quickly as possible before he could unleash an army of undead upon Magnamund, an unkillable army that would grow larger with every battle it fought against the living.

There is no mention of what type of Weapon the Power Spike is. If you choose to consider it one of the close combat Weapons used by the Kai (i.e. Spear, Dagger, Mace, Short Sword, Warhammer, Quarterstaff, Broadsword, Axe, and Sword), you may add all appropriate bonuses to your Combat Skill. If you decide that the Power Spike is not any of those Weapons, you may still decide that your Weaponmastery bonuses, if any, apply since Grandmasters are proficient with all close combat and missile weapons
due to their knowledge of Magnakai Weaponmastery. (Grand Master Disciplines)
You raise the Power Spike and a halo of silvery flame engulfs the tip, flaring with such brilliance that Deathlord Ixiataaga is momentarily blinded by its intensity. He shrieks, and raises the Deathstaff defensively to ward off your first blow. As the tip of the Power Spike bites deep into the haft of Ixiataaga
The Deathlord reels from the force of the impact, but he recovers swiftly and slashes with the sharp tip of the Deathstaff at your face. You duck the blow, but you sense that this is only the opening exchange in what will surely be a titanic fight to the finish.
This supernatural being is immune to all forms of psychic attack, except Kai-surge and Kai-blast.
+This supernatural being is immune to all forms of psychic attack, except Kai-surge and Kai-blast.
Assuming that this weaponry was created by native Ixians prior to their destruction at the hands of the Deathlord since no other nation has occupied Ixia since that time, it is impossible to reconcile calling them Old Kingdom armourers
with the timeline presented in The Magnamund Companion, Magnamund Then and Now
. According to that book, the Ixians must have been destroyed long before the Age of the Old Kingdoms.
At the first opportunity you sprint away from the wooden crates and descend the staircase to a closed door. It is a sturdy portal, carved from solid rock and banded with strips of bronze. You test it with the toe of your boot and, to your surprise, it swings open with barely a sound.
-Beyond the door lies a rough-hewn chamber lined with racks of ancient crystal spears and swords. Despite the millennia which have passed since they were crafted by Old Kingdom armourers, these weapons still hold a keen edge and gleam like new.

As the last skeletal warrior crumbles beneath your repeated blows, you step back and wipe the sweat of battle from your brow. A glance into the secret panel through which they emerged reveals a narrow chamber beyond. Lying on the crystal slab floor you see several items of equipment:
If you decide to keep any of the above, record them on your Action Chart as Backpack Items.
You leave the chamber and hurry down the stone staircase to the archway below. The Drakkarim patrol you sighted earlier is now nowhere to be seen, enabling you to leave the barbican and enter Xaagon without further confrontation.

You have just passed a derelict mausoleum when you are forced to halt and hide from a passing troop of Ixian warriors. You watch as they march stiffly along an ice-choked avenue towards a plaza that is dominated by a huge frozen fountain. Beyond the fountain
It is impossible to reconcile the statement that Old Kingdom magic is older

and the statements about the origin of magical power in The Realms of Northern Magnamund: The Birth of Magnamund
and The Realms of Southern Magnamund: Man, Magic and the Moonstone
in that same book. According to The Magnamund Companion, magic entered Magnamund with the Elder Magi long after Agarash and his minion, the Deathlord.
You reach the subterranean lake and go aboard an ice-boat moored alongside the stone jetty. With the demise of the Deathlord and his necromantic power, you are fearful that these vessels may no longer be serviceable; their sorcerous engines could prove to be as immobile as the warriors who stand like frozen statues all around the shore of the lake. But, fortunately, your fears turn out to be groundless.
-You quickly discover that these ice-boats are propelled by Old Kingdom magic, an arcane art far older and more benign than the Deathlord

Leaning at a slant to make headway into the blizzard, you trek determinedly through deep snow that is heaped in drifts around the breached city wall. As you pass through the gap, you catch brief glimpses of ruined buildings through the sleeting gale. You also become aware of a noise

It is unclear whether Grand Huntmastery should help you find food in this situation. Note that this appears to be the only section within the Grand Master books where Huntmastery is not mentioned in when you are required to eat a Meal. This either means that the current omission is intentional because the author is otherwise so consistent, or it means that Huntmastery was intended to be applied in all situations and this is a simple omission.

(The Story So FarOld Kingdom
in this book. Although the native Ixians are often described as belonging to the time of the Old Kingdoms
(Section 152), it is clear from the fact that the Deathlord destroyed them during the Age of Eternal Night that they could not have existed during the Age of the Old Kingdoms which began more than 1000 years after the Age of Eternal Night ended. (See The Magnamund Companion, Magnamund Then and Now
.) The author may have used the term Old Kingdom
to refer to any humanoid nation prior to the appearance of the Shianti.
(The Game Rules) The Discipline bonuses mentioned do not affect your permanent scores. If you have completed previous adventures, the Disciplines that you have mastered may still be beneficial. See the Grand Master Rules section of the Rules Handbook for details.
(The Game Rules) Note that this list now includes the Silver Bracers and Korlinium Scabbard. These items are restored to the list of permissible items from the Kai and Magnakai series again in this book after being omitted beginning in
(Grand Master Disciplines) The rules of the books in the Magnakai series (6rank of Kai Grand Defender
imply that for each book that you complete of the Grand Master series (13
(10) This is the correct answer to the crystal dais grid in Section 69.
(20) This is the correct answer to the ancient, green crystal lock in Section 213.
(64) The wording of this section ignores the fact that you may arrive here without passing through the curtain of light.
-(67) Unless you have Grand Weaponmastery and are a Sun Knight or higher, you may not use a two-handed weapon (i.e. Broadsword, Quarterstaff, and Spear) for this combat.
+(67) Unless you have Grand Weaponmastery and are a Sun Knight or higher, you may not use a two-handed weapon (i.e. Broadsword, Quarterstaff, or Spear) for this combat.
(69) The section corresponding to the correct answer will have a footnote confirming that it is indeed correct. You have only one chance to guess at the correct answer. If you guess incorrectly, turn immediately to 139.
+(77) There is no mention of what type of Weapon the Power Spike is. If you choose to consider it one of the close combat Weapons used by the Kai (i.e. Spear, Dagger, Mace, Short Sword, Warhammer, Quarterstaff, Broadsword, Axe, and Sword), you may add all appropriate bonuses to your Combat Skill. If you decide that the Power Spike is not any of those Weapons, you may still decide that your Weaponmastery bonuses, if any, apply since Grandmasters are proficient with all close combat and missile weapons
due to their knowledge of Magnakai Weaponmastery. (Grand Master Disciplines)
(96) Kajarda are undead. (See Section 8, 52, or 265.)
(100) This is the correct answer to the intricate lockplate in the center of the green crystal door in Section 322.
(123) It is unclear whether a 0 picked on the Random Number Table should count as exactly 0. Since the procedure described here is similar to the procedure for Kai-blast, and you are required to be a Sun Lord who has mastered Kai-surge, it would be reasonable to count 0 as a 1 in the same way as for Kai-blast.
(125) Kajarda are undead. (See Section 6, 8, 52, 103, 120, or 265.)
(137) Unless you have Grand Weaponmastery and are a Sun Knight or higher, you may not use a two-handed weapon (i.e. Broadsword, Quarterstaff, and Spear) for this combat.
-(179) It is unclear whether Grand Huntmastery should help you find food in this situation. Note that this appears to be the only section within the Grand Master books where Huntmastery is not mentioned in when you are required to eat a Meal. This either means that the current omission is intentional because the author is otherwise so consistent, or it means that Huntmastery was intended to be applied in all situations and this is a simple omission.
+(141) Assuming that this weaponry was created by native Ixians prior to their destruction at the hands of the Deathlord since no other nation has occupied Ixia since that time, it is impossible to reconcile calling them Old Kingdom armourers
with the timeline presented in The Magnamund Companion, Magnamund Then and Now
. According to that book, the Ixians must have been destroyed long before the Age of the Old Kingdoms.
(152) It is impossible to reconcile the statement that the native Ixians reigned in the time of the Old Kingdoms
with the timeline presented in The Magnamund Companion, Magnamund Then and Now
. According to that book, the Ixians must have been destroyed long before the Age of the Old Kingdoms.
(162) It is impossible to reconcile the statement that Old Kingdom magic is older
with the timeline presented in The Magnamund Companion, Magnamund Then and Now
and the statements about the origin of magical power in The Realms of Northern Magnamund: The Birth of Magnamund
and The Realms of Southern Magnamund: Man, Magic and the Moonstone
in that same book. According to The Magnamund Companion, magic entered Magnamund with the Elder Magi long after Agarash and his minion, the Deathlord.
(165) It is impossible to reconcile the statement that the native Ixians were a race of the Old Kingdoms
with the timeline presented in The Magnamund Companion, Magnamund Then and Now
. According to that book, the Ixians must have been destroyed long before the Age of the Old Kingdoms.
(179) It is unclear whether Grand Huntmastery should help you find food in this situation. Note that this appears to be the only section within the Grand Master books where Huntmastery is not mentioned in when you are required to eat a Meal. This either means that the current omission is intentional because the author is otherwise so consistent, or it means that Huntmastery was intended to be applied in all situations and this is a unintentional omission.
(213) The section corresponding to the correct answer will have a footnote confirming that it is indeed correct. You have only one chance to guess at the correct answer. If you guess incorrectly, turn immediately to 199.
(220) This is a permanent enhancement to this Weapon.
(239) There is no path which leads to this section of the book. It is functionally identical to Section 23 and Section 242, and therefore its isolation does not affect the gameplay of the book.
(287) Kajarda are undead. (See Section 6, 8, 52, 103, 120, or 265.)
(322) The section corresponding to the correct answer will have a footnote confirming that it is indeed correct. You have only one chance to guess at the correct answer. If you guess incorrectly, turn immediately to 84.
+(343) It is impossible to reconcile the statement that the native Ixians reigned in the time of the Old Kingdoms
with the timeline presented in The Magnamund Companion, Magnamund Then and Now
. According to that book, the Ixians must have been destroyed long before the Age of the Old Kingdoms.
