When the renegade sorcerer Zarok raised an army of demons to take over the land in 1286, the King's Champion led the [[King's Militia|militia]] into battle against this unholy horde. Gallowmere lost a whole generation of young men in said battle against the sorcerer. The King himself died soon after, leaving the kingdom leaderless and with greatly diminished military forces. | When the renegade sorcerer Zarok raised an army of demons to take over the land in 1286, the King's Champion led the [[King's Militia|militia]] into battle against this unholy horde.

Though it is unknown how many tourists Gallowmere had during the 14th century, a two part [[Tourist Guide to Gallowmere]] had been produced to incentivise more tourism in the country. Both parts of the guide could be found in the Gallows Town library. | Though it is unknown how many tourists Gallowmere had during the 14th century, a two part [[Tourist Guide to Gallowmere]] had been produced to incentivise more tourism in the country.

===Science and technology=== | |||
Gallowmere's human population enjoyed technological advances far beyond what was common in the medieval era. This included the [[Corn cutting machine]] used to harvest corn by the farmers, as well as the street lamps and iron gutters found in Gallows Town. | |||
The [[Imps]] had their own technology, specifically the [[Mecha Imps]], which they used to steal produce from the land's farmers.{{Gameref|MED2019-Bestiary|Mecha Imps}} | |||
A notable scientist and inventor was the sorcerer Zarok. Zarok created a [[train|steam locomotive]], a time machine,{{Gameref|MED2019|The Time Device|quote=Zarok seeks to expand his reach beyond the confines of time. Just think of where he could go. Modern London? Egypt? The possibilities are endless!|author=Loading screen}} and artificial soldiers known as [[Boiler Guards]]. However, most of Zarok's inventions were confined to his domain, which was destroyed in 1386, and most of his creations were presumably destroyed along with it. | |||
