3 THE STRONGHOLD South of Suranhill passed the Sokan Valley and inbetween the Dwanen Mountains lies an old Stronghold once a fortress against goblins. It is now a refuge for cutthroats, criminals, bandits, and the most notorious gladiators and fighters the lands will ever experience. The Bavidirian Empire once tried to extinguish the Stronghold, yet the men of this area united and fought back forcing the Empire to sign a truce. Today the biggest gambling in all of the lands is dealt here bidding large sums of gold pieces for the champions to defend their title against any who dare to challenge them. Far and wide the inhabitants of the lands come here in hopes to change their lives as they wage for their champions to make their pockets full of gold pieces. Buildings at the Stronghold Important Note 1. Know that all of the followers that are accompanying the adventurer will not agree to travel to the Stronghold and will bid farewell to the adventurer. In otherwords, all of the followers will be deleted from the character sheet, except for a horse or apprentice. 2. If the adventurer has followers that hinder his abilities then they must be resolved first before travelling to the Stronghold. Such followers include the Hag or the Invisible Jester. 3. If one leaves the competition before attaining the status Arena Champion then the battles won will not be saved. This means if your adventurer returns at a later date from Suranhill then he must repay 1000 gold pieces to compete again.

Available Commands Upgrade (name of armor) at the Ogre Armory - This command allows the adventurer to improve his armor. Make sure to indicate which armor to improve.

Repair (name of weapon or armor) at the Ogre Armory This command allows the adventurer to repair his armor or weapon. Make sure to have enough gold pieces for the services. Armor Upgrades One must first do the 1 st upgrade before allowed to do the 2 nd upgrade of the same armor. The 3 rd upgrade can only be attained if the adventurer had done a 2 nd upgrade to his armor. The 3 rd upgrade is the max armor can have. Gauntlets and Helmets can also be upgraded in the same manner.

5 Weapon Upgrades One must first do the 1 st upgrade before allowed to do the 2 nd upgrade of the same weapon. The 3 rd upgrade can only be attained if the adventurer had done a 2 nd upgrade. The 3 rd upgrade is the max a weapon can have. 1 st upgrade: cots 250 gold pieces = adds +1 Physical 2nd upgrade: costs 300 gold pieces = adds +2 Physical 3rd upgrade: costs 350 gold pieces = adds + 3 Physical Repair Weapons need to be sharpened and Armor needs repairs after being used so often. To determine when a weapon needs to be repaired look at the percentage indicated next to the weapon or armor on the adventurer's character sheet. If it is close to zero percent then the item is almost worthless and cannot provide any help. 10% repairs costs 20 gold pieces. 20% repair costs 30 gold pieces. 50% repair costs 55 gold pieces. For Magical Weapons and Armors the price changes. 10% repairs costs 70 gold pieces. 20% repair costs 120 gold pieces. 50% repair costs 280 gold pieces. Magical items are expensive to repair because the blacksmith has to ask a Veteran Mage to disenchant the magic from the item to be allowed to repair it. Then the Veteran Mage has to enchant the item again to keep its value.
