The Bogmole Trilogy

THE BLOOD OF BOGMOLE…

Long ago, in the lands of Bolimol evil ruled! Slither, the dragon scoured the land destroying the good dwarfs lived there.

Gregor, the wizard of Balimol using his magic powers tricked Slither into a trap, set by the dwarfs!

Slither while hunting down king Eldor, followed him into a giant trench where the dwarf’s were waiting!

As the dragon entered the trench, hundreds of dwarfs pushed down tons of soil, rocks and boulders down on top of Slither burying him alive for all eternity!

The giant trench was then flattened and renamed the valley of Bolimol by the dwarf king. After decades of peaceful living, the evil wizard Zogan amassed great armies of orcs and shadow orcs on the border and marched into Bolimol. As the dwarfs and orcs fought, Zogan used his magic powers to entomb the wizard Gregor inside a huge clay altar.

He then killed Eldor the King and turned the land of Bolimol against the dwarf army. Earthquakes caused huge chasms to open and swallow up great numbers of dwarfs. It was at this time that

prince Eldrin, son of the dwarf king took command of the remaining army, which now numbered only 1,600 men.

They retreated to the swamp where they would be safe from any further attack and where he could plan his next offensive!

Now, Zogan having control over the lands sent forth many orc patrols to hunt down the last of the dwarfs while he searched for the unique ingredient to a spell, which once cast would release the dragon from the weight of the land that imprisoned him. Together they could move into the neighbouring lands and control the whole province.

You are Bogmole, the last of the swamp monsters! After receiving word that your father had been killed in the war at Bolimol, you decide to leave your own home land Freand for revenge! After many days travel you arrive at the summit of mount Crag looking down into the valley ofBolimol below.

You decide there and then to make contact with prince Eldrin and to help in Zogan’s destruction!

INFORMATION

THE ARMIES

The dwarf and orc armies have been spilt up into hundreds of patrol groups comprising of 20 men to each group. This is so more territory can be covered.

DWARF PATROLS

Dwarf patrols are sent out by prince Eldrin to guard one of three main positions in the lands

of Bolimol. If an orc patrol spots you, you can find safety with the dwarf patrols as they will fight to protect you! NOTE: If the dwarfs are victorious, they will move to a new position, You may find that the moving patrol will be replaced by a relief patrol immediately.

ORC PATROLS

Orc patrols are sent out by the orc general Knife, There main task is to destroy any dwarfs they come into contact with or anyone else who they think is collaborating with them. Depending on certain events and on how much information has been given to the patrol leaders by Knife, You may be taken prisoner or killed!

ORC LEADERS

‘Knife’ is the main orc general in total command, but he is on a secret mission for Zogan, so other orc leaders take over separate command of the patrols and vary in intelligence, Some might see through any disguise you have on, where others may not.

BERNARD THE BEAVER

If you make friends with Bernard you will be able to call him. You might have to keep calling, as Bernard follows your call and may have to travel a great distance to arrive at your location.

TROLLS

Trolls will kill anything in sight, They are being used by Zogan as paid mercenaries and are dangerous.

MUD MONSTERS

Mud monsters are distant cousins. Although neutral in this war, some may help while others may not.

DUNGEON

All prisoners are taken to the orc encampment dungeon, which is run by an incompetent orc guard.

EARTHOUAKE

Earthquakes cause chasms to open and block <MISSING TEXT>

ZOGAN‘S REVENGE

After Zogan was defeated at Bolimol he retreated with the remaining orc army and marched into Freand!

He set up camp at the far side of Battle valley and began his new campaign to rid this land of good.

His first target were the mud monsters he believed that if the mud monsters had helped him, he would not have lost the war.

Zogan called on all his magic powers and one by one the mud monsters dried and crumbled to dust! As Zogan became more powerful the evil that burned inside him began to take its toll. The

dark force engulfed Zogan, his body and face twisted and distorted into a hideous form. It was at this time that Bogmole, following Zogan's trail, arrived in Freand with prince Eldrin and the dwarf army.

As prince Eldrin and the dwarfs marched towards Battle valley, Bogmole decided to visit his old swamp and see what damage had been done. After a short walk he arrived at Black hill. Suddenly, three orcs appeared and surrounded Bogmole. They were about to attack when Randor the dwarf burst forth from behind a tree. He drew his sword and charged into theorcs.

Now, badly wounded the orcs retreated up Black hill and disappeared.  Randor then explained to Bogmole how had been sent by prince Eldrin to act as bodyguard and to travel with him on his journey.

YOUR QUEST...

You are Bogmole, the last of the swamp monsters, With the aid of Randor you must hunt down Zogan and destroy him before he commits total genocide on the mud monster race.

Gregor, the wizard of Bolimol, has promised to help when he can and Bernard the beaver has already entered Freand and is now searching for you…

THE FINAL BATTLE IS ABOUT TO TAKE PLACE!

THE WIZARDS SKULL

After Zogan was destroyed in Freand and the final battle left the orcs defeated &  virtually wiped out, Bogmole settled back in his swamp and dared to rest and think of more pleasant things.

Several years had passed by, it was midsummers night and the sound of heavy rain was

hitting the roof of Bogmoles hut. Then he heard a loud knocking at his door, Bogmole opened the door and was confronted by a strangely dressed old elf!

The old elf introduced himself:- "My name is Danark, may I come in?".

Bogmole let the elf in, he was soaking wet, so Bogmole made him comfortable in a chair by the fire.

Danark, now warmed by the fire began to tell Bogmole tales of evil, and of Freand in a different time!

They sat up half the night, or maybe more, and Danark began to tell Bogmole what it was all for:- "Zogan's powers have lived on! A race of goblins called the Kranad had found Zogan's skull in the talons of a dead eagle. They had used the power within..." Danark fell silent...

Suddenly, an intense bright light engulfed Bogmoles hut! Danark pulled a letter out from his cloak and threw it into the fire, He then rose to his feet and ran out of the hut.

Bogmole now found himself uncontrollably falling asleep, Danark's words echoed in his head:- “Zogan's powers have lived on!"

You are Bogmole, the last of the swamp monsters.  As you wake from a deep sleep, you wonder if what had happened was real, or just a dream?

AND SO IT BEGINS…
