<description class="blurb">
<p>You are Lone Wolf<ch.emdash/>the last Kai Master of Sommerlund<ch.emdash/>sworn avenger of your forefathers, the Kai Lords. To achieve your vow you must find the Lorestone of Ohrido, known to be hidden in the jungle-swamps of the Danarg. Guided by Lord Paido, warrior-magician of Dessi, you set off across the war-torn lands of Talestria on your vital secret mission. But your quest is soon endangered when your identity is discovered by agents of your mortal enemies<ch.emdash/>the Darklords of Helgedad. Can you survive the assassins of Gnaag, the armies of Warlord Zegron, and the Chaos-creatures of Agarash the Damned? Will you fall foul of their evil schemes, or will you defeat them and fulfil your destiny?</p>

For every <cite>Lone Wolf</cite> book that you complete in the Magnakai series, you may add an additional weapon to your <a idref="action">Weaponmastery Checklist</a>.</p>

<p>The possessor of this skill can restore 1 lost <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> point to his total for every numbered section of the book through which he passes, provided he is not involved in combat. (This can only be done after his <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> has fallen below its original level.) This Magnakai Discipline also enables a Kai Master to cure disease, blindness, and any combat wounds sustained by others, as well as himself.

<p>This psychic skill enables a Kai Master to attack an enemy using the force of his mind. It can be used as well as normal combat weapons and adds 4 extra points to your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ>.</p>
<p>It is a powerful Discipline, but it is also a costly one. For every round of combat in which you use Psi-surge, you must deduct 2 <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points. A weaker form of Psi-surge called <cite>Mindblast</cite> can be used against an enemy without losing any <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points, but it will add only 2 extra points to your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ>. (Psi-surge and Mindblast cannot be used simultaneously.) Psi-surge cannot be used if your <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> falls to 6 points or below, and not all of the creatures encountered on your adventure will be affected by it; you will be told if a creature is immune.</p>

<p>Paido<ch.apos/>s coma deepens. Shortly after midnight, his heart and brain cease to function and he slips painlessly into death. Grief fills your senses and you mourn the loss of your brave companion, but your grief soon turns to anger as you remember the foul trickery that ended his life and so nearly put an end to yours.</p>
<p>A rage grows within you. You take Paido<ch.apos/>s sword and vow to avenge his death by washing it in the blood of his murderers. Heedless of caution and the warning cry of your senses, you throw open the cellar door and go in search of vengeance.</p>
<p>You have taken only a few paces along the corridor when a terrific explosion lifts you off your feet. The monks followed your trail to the cellar and prepared a surprise for you. You have tripped a wire and activated an explosive charge set into the floor. When the monks come to inspect their handiwork, they will discover your remains lying in the rubble.</p>

An elderly man, tall and distinguished-looking, walks slowly to the centre of the floor and bows to his audience. His pale face and silver-grey hair are a stark contrast to his richly embroidered robes of crimson and gold. He smiles warmly and introduces himself as Count Conundrum, the prince of puzzles.

So confident is he that none will be able to answer his riddles correctly that he is offering 20 Lune to anyone who can prove him wrong. A hush descends as the passengers await his first puzzle.</p>
