| ===Friendlies===
| | Four entries are available from the start: |
| ==== Sir Daniel Fortesque ====
| | ====Friendlies==== |
| Our bone-headed protagonist, born again into this Age of Wonders! In life he was just the worst: a coward, a cheat, a philatelist (or was it a philanderer... I don't recall). But either way, he seems to have woken up... different?
| | ===== Sir Daniel Fortesque ===== |
| | | {{BookOfGallowmereEntry|Sir Dan}} |
| Perhaps he can redeem himself? Zarok should be more careful where he aims his dark magic.
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Morten the Earthworm]] ====
| |
| Morten was so happy when Dan died. Surely, he initially had a lot of housework to do, but now he's got the place to himself, and just how he likes it.
| |
| | |
| Of course, Dan coming back to life was a bit of a shock, but Morten will do anything he can to keep his home-buddy safe (and get him back to the earthy darkness as quickly as possible).
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Information Gargoyles]] ====
| |
| Can you imagine how boring it would be to be a sentient being - wise even - and be stuck permanently to a brick wall? No wonder these guys are grumpy.
| |
| | |
| They pass time by eavesdropping, gossiping, and bad-mouthing any bizarre looking adventurers that might pass by.
| |
| | |
| ==== [[The Heroes]] ====
| |
| The mightiest heroes of Gallowmere are awarded a place in the [[Hall of Heroes (MediEvil)|Hall of Heroes]]. It's an exclusive club, with access paid for by only the greatest of deeds.
| |
| | |
| Who runs the place? We don't know. How do the heroes pass the time for all eternity? We don't know. But trust me, these heroes are the best of the best, and they deserve every moment of whatever it is they do up there.
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Merchant Gargoyles]] ====
| |
| Even in medieval times, there were vending machines designed to part a foolish hero from his gold.
| |
| | |
| Clever customers may qualify for a discount... just don't ask the merchant how he acquires his wares.
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Mr. Organ]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Kul Katura the Serpent Lord|Kul Katura]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[The Pumpkin Witch|Pumpkin Witch]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Jack of the Green]] ====
| |
| <poem>
| |
| There once was a statue named Jack,
| |
| For riddles, he did have a knack,
| |
| Dan entered [[The Asylum Grounds|the garden]]
| |
| Which Jack was a guardin',
| |
| A smart hero would have turned back.

| ==== [[King Peregrin]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Vulture]] ====
| |
| | |
| ===Enemies===
| |
| ==== [[Zombies]] ====
| |
| These guys were fashionably undead before it was fashionable to be undead. Your brain may have long since rotted, but that won't stop them from eating it.
| |
| | |
| Just a few chops should do them in. Be careful not to miss! That would be embarrassing.
| |
| | |
| ==== Severed [[Hands]] ====
| |
| Dan's number one fans. They can't afford to lend a hand, but they'll follow you to the ends of the earth. Or at least, to the end of the graveyard.
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Boulder Gargoyles]] ====
| |
| These guardian gargoyles aren't much for conversation. And don't ask to hear their singing voice - unless you're into rock and roll. Badum-tsh!
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Headless Zombies]] ====
| |
| Have you ever had one of those days where you leave the house full of breezy purpose, only to realize that you've left something really important at home? Well, that's how these guys feel all the time.
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Imps]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Graveyard Wolves]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Scarecrows]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Mad Farmers]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Mecha Imps]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Corn Killers]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Bats]] ====
| |
| They're vampire bats. Actually, they're just bats. But they bite. That's sort of vampirey.
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Pumpkin Plants]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Pumpkin Bombs]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Rats]] ====
| |
| These rats seem harmless, but they have tiny fingers an they're probably plotting something terrible.
| |
| | |
| Each rat you squish is an act of treason against the mighty rat king [[Rat King Derok|Derok]].
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Townspeople]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Boiler Guards]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Mad Monks]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Hedges]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Head Bangers]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Dragon Toads]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Poisonous Plants]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Shadow Demons]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Ants]] ====
| |
| Fascinating creatures, ants. Did you know they're as old as the dinosaurs? That they "talk" using chemicals? Or that they share a hive mind?
| |
| | |
| And, contrary to popular belief, they actually have no interest whatsoever in your pants.
| |
| | |

| ==== [[Mummies]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Serpent of Gallowmere]] ====
| |
| This mean-spirited snake was always viewed as the lesser serpent sibling. It was always Kul Katura this, and Kul Katura that!
| |
| | |
| Well, if no one wants to worship him, let there be no worshippers at all!
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Mace Knights]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Stone Golems]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Jabberwocky]] ====
| |
| Many years ago, the foolish sorcerer [[Mazok the Muddled]] came into possession of a Dragon Egg. At this same time, Gallowmere was suffering under a terrible famine, and Mazok had been ordered by his king to seek out a magical solution. "If only the kingdom's scrawny chickens could lay eggs the size of a dragon egg," thought Mazok, and he set about applying his questionable skills to transform the egg.
| |
| | |
| Several days later, the kingdom had been saved! The hatched chicken-dragon - or Jabberwocky as it came to be known - possessed the ferocity of a dragon and the dim wit of a chicken. It rampaged through the kingdom on a murderous spree and killed so many that even the meager harvest was enough to sustain the survivors (as they mourned their loved ones).
| |
| | |
| The Jabberwocky was finally chased from the land by the hero [[Dirk Steadfast]], who poked it with his magic sword.
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Pirate Crew]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Pirate Officers]] ====
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Flying Clocks]] ====
| |
| Time really does fly! These clockwork pests will shave minutes off your life with each sweep of their hands.
| |
| | |
| Staring into their faces will tell you the time of your death. Nothing you don't know already.
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Flying Eyeballs]] ====
| |
| Exactly what is a flying eyeball without a flying brain? And without a flying mouth, how can it possibly report what it has seen?
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Fazguls]] ====
| |
| | |
| ===Bosses===
| |
| ====[[Zarok]]====
| |
| It is said that Zarok's preoccupation with necromancy stems from an obsession to resurrect his childhood puppy.
| |
| | |
| Let's just reflect for a moment: isn't that just tragic? All this poor, troubled soul has ever wanted is to command the forces of darkness, enslave mankind, and play ball one last time with dear old Mr Snuffy.
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Stained Glass Demon]] ==== | |
| I always thought it was a bad idea when they put a demon on their stained glass window. "Isn't that a little odd for a holy place?" I said. "What if a passing sorcerer brings it to life using arcane magic?" But did they listen?
| |
| | |
| Yes, he might have a glass jaw, but if you think shattering his dark heart is going to be easy, you'd better think again!
| |
| | |
| ==== [[Guardians of the Graveyard]] ==== | |
| Humanity's last line of defense against the restless undead. They prevent boney beings from escaping to the land of the living.
| |
| | |
| Man's best friend, but not Dan's best friend.

Entries
- Main article: Transcript of the Book of Gallowmere
Four entries are available from the start:
Friendlies
Sir Daniel Fortesque
Our bone-headed protagonist, born again into this Age of Wonders! In life he was just the worst: a coward, a cheat, a philatelist (or was it a philanderer... I don’t recall). But either way, he seems to have woken up… different?
Perhaps he can redeem himself? Zarok should be more careful where he aims his dark magic.
Morten the Earthworm
Morten was so happy when Dan died. Surely, he initially had a lot of housework to do, but now he’s got the place to himself, and just how he likes it.
Of course, Dan coming back to life was a bit of a shock, but Morten will do anything he can to keep his home-buddy safe (and get him back to the earthy darkness as quickly as possible).
Information Gargoyles
Can you imagine how boring it would be to be a sentient being - wise even - and be stuck permanently to a brick wall? No wonder these guys are grumpy.
They pass time by eavesdropping, gossiping, and bad-mouthing any bizarre looking adventurers that might pass by.
Bosses
Zarok
It is said that Zarok’s preoccupation with necromancy stems from an obsession to resurrect his childhood puppy.
Let’s just reflect for a moment: isn’t that just tragic? All this poor, troubled soul has ever wanted is to command the forces of darkness, enslave mankind, and play ball one last time with dear old Mr Snuffy.
