You are only ten feet or so away from the robed stranger when the raven squawks a warning to its master who instantly spins around. You are frozen in your tracks by the hideous apparition of a Vordak, a lieutenant of the Darklords and one of the undead. You must fight him.

Due to the surprise of your attack, you may add 2 points to your COMBAT SKILL for the first round of combat only.

Unless you have the Kai Discipline of Mindshield, deduct 2 points from your COMBAT SKILL for the second and subsequent rounds of fighting, for the creature is attacking you with the power of its Mindforce as well as with a large black mace!

Vordak: COMBAT SKILL 17   ENDURANCE 25

If you win, turn to 123.
