Alongside certain weapons, there are also many colourful and varying enemies, though particularly [[zombies]] in the opening levels, which Dan must defeat. Later on through the epic journey through Gallowmere, Dan will encounter a number of other monsters and creatures, most of which are modelled after gothic demons associated with the time period. [[Imps|Sticky-fingered Imps]], [[Scarecrows|demonic Scarecrows]], and Zarok's boiler guards are but a few of the ghastly and varied monstrosities that inhabit the levels.<br />Very simple weapons will require much use in order to finish off a single enemy. Some enemies can only be attacked either at certain times or using specific weapons, such as the Scarecrows. Many weapons, such as swords and [[Throwing Daggers|throwing daggers]], can be charged up to produce a more powerful attack to finish beasts off more quickly. | Alongside certain weapons, there are also many colourful and varying enemies, though particularly [[zombies]] in the opening levels, which Dan must defeat.

==Characters== | |||
*[[Sir Daniel Fortesque]] - The game's protagonist and playable character. He was King Peregrin's champion when he was alive. He was also one of the first men to die in the battle against Zarok and his Shadow Demons and was proclaimed Hero of Gallowmere by the king, so that the people of the land would feel safe. When Zarok returns to raise an army of dead, he also raises Sir Dan by mistake. Being given a second chance, Dan can finally prove himself a hero that he wasn't in his life by defeating Zarok. | |||
*[[Zarok|Zarok the Sorcerer]] - The game's antagonist. He was King Peregrin's advisor and mage, until he began dabbling in Necromancy, which led the King to exiling him from the land. Embittered and filled with wrath, he led an army of Shadowy demons into battle against the King. His army was defeated, however, by the King's militia and soon he was proclaimed killed by Sir Dan. In truth, Zarok went into hiding, only to return 100 years later to try and take over the land once again. | |||
*[[King Peregrin]] - The past King of Gallowmere. He appointed Sir Dan a knight and banished Zarok from the land. He aids Dan in his quest by telling him how to defeat the Shadow Demons. | |||
*Heroes - [[Canny Tim]], [[Stanyer Iron Hewer]], [[Bloodmonath Skull Cleaver]], [[Woden the Mighty]], [[Karl Sturnguard]], [[Dirk Steadfast]], [[RavenHooves the Archer]], [[Imanzi Shongama]] and [[Megwynne Stormbinder]], all aid Dan in his quest by giving him their weapons and other useful items. | |||
