Hailing from the lost land of [[Gallowmere]], Sir Daniel Fortesque killed in a battle against [[Zarok]], an insane wizard, way back in the 13th Century. Some time after Dan's death, Zarok discovered a book of Black Magic and used an ancient spell to make the dead rise from their graves to form a legion of [[zombies|zombie warriors]]. A side effect of this was that Dan also returned from his "eternal rest". Quickly realising that something was wrong, Dan embarked on a quest to destroy Zarok once and for all.
