Zarok: Difference between revisions

Zarok's army had soon overtaken the flood lands. He knew the King would try to stop him, so he prepared an ambush. This lead to the battle of Gallowmere, in which Sir Dan was killed. The history books said that he had defeated Zarok, seconds before dying himself. The truth was different, however. Zarok wasn't defeated. He remained in hiding, preparing a more powerful, stronger army of unholy monsters.

Throughout the game, Zarok visits the many places in Gallowmere and leaves behind him a green, slimy trail of magic. He is looking for the Shadow Artifact, which is required to open the tomb that holds his Shadow Demons.

Zarok awaits Dan in his lair. He sends his bodyguards and later his champion Lord Kardok, to kill Dan, but they all end up being defeat by him. In the end, Zarok decides to confront him himself and transforms into a monstrous creature. Upon his defeat, he casts a spell that causes his Lair to collapse. Zarok is then crushed by a piece of the collapsing ceiling.

Zarok's role in Resurrection is expanded, but still remains rather unchanged. He appears in many more cutscenes than in the original game. Before the events of Resurrection, he trapped the genie Al-Zalam inside Dan's head.
