(I) [Introdcution]

- Features -
 Record of Lodoss War is an RPG based on the anime series. The game is similar
 to the Final Fantasy series with many Dungeons & Dragons elements. This
 particular game is for the Super Famicom video game system and is only
 available in Japan.

- Story -
 The storyline depends on which is the current Scenario and whom the main
 character is. There are four scenarios to complete, each one with a
 different main character: Karla, Beld, Fahn, and finally Parn.

- Saving -
 The game pak's built-in battery holds as many as 12 saved game files. If
 there are saved files, there will be the choice to continue a quest or
 start a new quest.

 To save a game file, stay at an Inn and the Save Game screen will appear.
 From there, choose one of the 12 game file slots and press the A button to
 confirm, then select "Yes" and press the A button again.

(III) [Battle]

- Basics -
 Battle is set on a isometric 3x5 grid with the party at the bottom-right of
 the chess board. Against certain bosses (Elder Dragons, for example), the
 board will change size and appearance.

 When a character's turn arrives, they can move around the board to the extent
 of their movement limit, then press the A button to bring up the list of
 Battle Commands (see below).

 Every group of enemies has a leader, designated by a crown that appears
 over their head after they've been attacked. Once the leader has been killed,
 the rest of the enemies will be defeated as well.

 If you can position the enemy leader in the most upper-left row and strike
 them up-left, they will be pushed off of the battle board into a hole.
 When this happens, "Check Mate" will appear on the screen and all enemies
 will be defeated for an easy win. This also gets the party twice as much
 Experience Points for the battle.

 To run away from a battle, move any character off the bottom-right of the
 battle board. Sometimes, the party will be unable to flee, however.

 If a character reaches 0 LP in battle, they will vanish and be unable to
 fight. When the battle is over, they be revived at 1 LP.

 If a character reaches 0 MP in battle, they will gain 'Stun' status and
 be unable to do anything, plus they count as if they were dead. It is
 theregore unwise to have a mage use all their MP while in battle.


- Controls -
  See Section II (Controls) under 'Battle'.


- Battle Commands -
   -Attack
    Character performs a physical attack with their equipped weapon. Range
    and damage depend on the weapon equipped.

   -Magic
    Calls up the magic menu. Select a spell to use and its area of effect.

   -Defend
    Character's defense increases until next turn.

   -Item
    Calls up the item menu. Select an item to use and a space to use it on

   -Special
    Calls up the Special menu. Each character has unique skills that cost
    MP.


- Status Abnormalities -
  Some attacks or spells can cause negative or postitive effects to a
  character or enemy. Here are a list of abnormalities:

{Status}         {Icon}    {Effect}

(V) [Magic]

- Spells -

Spells are limited to certain classes. For example, mages can cast attack
spells and priests can cast curative spells, while knights and thieves cannot
cast either. There are exceptions to this rule, however, such as Karla who
gains new spells from different bodies, but keeps the ones she had previously.
Spells cost MP to cast. 'Use' denotes when the spell can be used:
  B = Battle only
  D = Dungeon exploring only

(VI) [Walkthrough]

_______________________________________________________________________________

[Prologue] Battle with Pharis

Fahn, Beld, Fleve, Wort, Niece and Flauss assemble before Pharis. They engage
in battle, striking with all their strength and casting their most powerful
spells, but nothing has any effect. Suddenly, Pharis casts a powerful
earthquake spell. Her evil sword, Soul Crusher, strikes Flauss. She falls
over, injured.

Beld runs to her side, and the sword strikes at him too. But Karla appears and
turns the Soul Crusher aside. Flauss dies, Beld walks to the weapon and
inspects it, triggering a flashback of a village with Flauss in it. He then
picks up the Soul Crusher, the illusion vanished and the battle begins anew.

The party, lead by Beld wielding the Soul Crusher, strikes at Pharis until
she falls. But it is an empty victory for Beld, who remorses Flauss. The other
party members gather around Karla, as she vanishes. The battle is over.

Time passes..

And Karla awakens..

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Karla will wake up in the basement of some house. After some text, walk up the
stairs to the east. Exit the door to the south for some more text. Sleep in the
bed to save. Exit to the south again and head down the staircase. The door
under the stairs won’t open, so head south once more and exit the building.

Head south to find a river and a freaked out thief. He’ll start to question
Karla, then fight her. Don’t worry if he kills Karla in one hit, because the
circlet posseses him and Karla will take over his body. Karla will
automatically walk down to the ocean and say a few lines. Equip the new body,
then head west and onto the map screen.

Go west until you reach enter town. Go into the bottom-right houses and talk
to the people inside. Then leave town and head northwest to the empty house.
Enter, and Karla will walk up to and examine the bookcase in the back. A mage
will enter and attack Karla, killing her. As before, Karla's circlet will
possess his body, which is already level 20 and has the ability to cast a
large assortment of spells.

Head back to the mansion Karla started at and open the locked door. Open the
chest. Then leave the mansion and head back to the town. Enter the dock house
just up and to the right of the city, and the dwarf that is usually guarding
his boat will be in his house. Walk up to the boat, and Karla will steal it as
the dwarf runs out and yells at her.

On the ocean, a huge monster will surface and Karla will freak out. It will
then attack:

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Sea Monster (600 LP - 10000 Exp - 1200 Gold)                                 |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
After the fight, Karla will dock at a port identical to the one she left. Talk
to the dwarf in the hut to rest and save, then venture forth onto the new
continent.

[SCENARIO I] Part II - Revelations


+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[World Map Enemies]                                                          |
|Dark Thief (140 LP - 680 Exp - 85 Gold)                                      |
|Grey Mage (120 LP - 950 Exp - 270 Gold)                                      |
|                                                                             |
|Manticore (850 LP - 2900 Exp - 112 Gold)                                     |
|Ogre (200 LP - 1800 Exp - 261 Gold)         SP: May heal 9-10 LP if hit      |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Follow the path to the west, but beware of the tougher enemies. Along the way,
there is another sealed identical to the one on the last island. Also on the
way is a wooden gate guarded by two knights that cannot be passed. Continue
southwest to a city.

Enter the house up the stairs from the city entrance, then talk to the man in
the top right. He will attack Karla and kill her, thus leaving himself open for
possessing. He’s a much stronger physical attacker than Karla's last mage body,
with a level of 38. Karla will still have all the spells of her mage form.

There’s a temple in the top left corner of town. In the back room is a
priest that Karla can possess. That body adds many more powerful spells to
Karla's arsenal. The house with two doors in the southwest of town also has
a body, this one being a thief who can hit enemies from anywhere on the battle
board.

Going into the basement of the bottom left house will meet Karla up with an elf
girl named Lion. She will begin to attack Karla, but another elf named Swan
will stop her. Lion will look at Karla and freak out. Both elves will kneel,
then Karla will begin to black out. After a lot more dialogue, Swan will leave
and Lion will join the party.

After Lion joins, go up the stairs and exit the house. Leave the town and head
east along the path to a lake, then head southwest until reaching a cave in the
mountain range. Enter the cave.

An inn is found right outside the caverns, so heal up and save. After that,
head up all the stairs and enter the cave behind the dwarf.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Dungeon Enemies]                                                            |
|Basilisk (400 LP - 3610 Exp - 144 Gold)   SP: Long range, Pertify            |
|Blob (600 LP - 1690 Exp - 218 Gold)       SP: Defense, Energy Bolt 1         |

|Manticore (850 LP - 2900 Exp - 112 Gold)                                     |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Getting near the chest around the corner from the entrance will drop to a lower
floor. Enter the door way straight down-left from where she falls to be
teleported back up a floor.


Follow the path from the entrance, and take the road up-left at the fork. Take
the first path up-right, then the first path up-left, and then head up-right
along the wall of doors. Enter the farthest right door, then pass through the
door in that room and continue down the path to a fork. Take the path around
past the door, then up-left as far as the path goes. Take two steps down-left,
then go down-right as far as possible. Go down-left until reaching a wall, then
down-right and take the second path down-left. Zig-zag along the path
down-right, down-left, down-right, then follow the bottom wall around to
another fork. Take the first path up-right and follow it around to a staircase.

On the next floor, follow the path up-left, taking the first branch up-right.
Simply follow that path around to a gold door, and enter it. From there, go
up the stairs until exiting the dungeon and return to the overworld.

[SCENARIO I] Part III - Rescue


+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Dungeon Enemies]                                                            |
|Basilisk (400 LP - 3610 Exp - 144 Gold)        SP: Long range, Pertify       |
|Green Dragon (1000 LP - 4890 Exp - 332 Gold)   SP: Poison                    |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Leaving that simple dungeon behind, head northwest to the tower in the desert,
which is a town.

Rest and save at the inn, then enter the house with the two large golems
outside to meet a mage who will talk a lot, then cast a spell on Karla which
causes her to black out repeatedly. After more dialogue, the mage will bring
Karla over to his crystal ball. A short scene will follow in which Swan gets
fried by an armored demon. Karla and Lion exchange some words, then leave.

Return to the first dungeon and go through it again. Rest and save at the inn,
then leave. The weaker enemies that used to inhabit this area have become much
stronger, so beware.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[World Map Enemies]                                                          |
|Dark Ogre (700 LP - 5000 Exp - 300 Gold)                                     |
|Lesser Demon (350 LP - 5580 Exp - 210 Gold)                                  |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Head north to the path with the lake, then northeast to another dungeon. This
one doesn't have an Inn outside, so be sure to heal and save beforehand.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Greater Demon (950 LP - 9500 Exp - 290 Gold)     SP: Blind, FireBug          |
|Lesser Demon (350 LP - 5580 Exp - 210 Gold)                                  |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
This dungeon is slightly more difficult than the last one, and makes use of
teleporters to jump from one place to another.

Get all the chests, then enter far right teleporter and enter the door near
there. examine the golems and Karla and Lion will say some things. examine the
one beside the one in the top-left to take/destroy it. exit the room, step on
the teleporter and return to the main room. now go up to the glowing door and
examine it to destroy it, then step on the teleporter behind it. follow the
path around and enter the door. Karla and Lion will approach the next door,
and Karla will cast a spell that awakens the two gargoyles there. A fight will
start against two Lesser Demons, then the path will be open to the next
hallway. Proceed there.

The next hallway leads to a barred-off prison room with Swan in shackles.
Lion will freak upon seeing her, then smash the door down and free her.
Swan sees that Karla's host body is dying and decides to sacrifice herself.
Swan will attack Karla, killing her and getting possesed by the circlet. All
of Karla's abilities will be given to Swan, along with the spells the elf
already had. Don't forget to equip before proceeding to the next room.

Enter the gold door to meet the demon that attacked Swan in the crystal ball
vision. It summons a pair of Greater Demons and attacks.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Bull Demon (5900 LP - 31500 Exp - 2589 Gold)     SP: Blizzard, FireBug       |
|Greater Demon (950 LP - 9500 Exp - 290 Gold)     SP: Blind, FireBug          |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
A long battle, but Bull Demon can be beaten by taking out his two Goat
Gargoyles first, then putting Lion and Karla on either side of it and
attacking. If the Demon casts any spells, it will hit itself as well.

When the Demon falls, Karla and Lion will talk a bit, then the scene changes
to Karla (still with Swan's body) standing in the basement room that the game
started in, as a bunch of text scrolls past. Scenario I with Karla ends.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
After Karla's scenario ends, the scene will change to a port town and more text
will scroll by. Then the scene will change to a boat and a man named Beld will
step off and speak. After that, take control of Beld and explore the town.

(*NOTE: Beld is a tricky character to keep at full LP. He doesn't regain LP
from Inns, so be sure to stock up on healing potions. He does regain all his
LP whenever the enemies' King is killed in battle, but be careful when walking
because Beld loses 5 LP every few steps on the map. It's like he's poisoned,
but can't be cured. This is all due to his evil sword and armor, which cannot
be removed.)

Go the the Inn and speak with Ash, then leave the Inn and go to the
bottom-left house. Beld will enter and speak to the mage inside, then draw his
sword. The mage will cast some shield spell and then die. Beld is surrounded by
energy for a moment, then leaves. Now is the time to explore the island.

Beld cannot enter the temple to the east for now. To the east is a field that
goes into a close screen when entered, but is empty and can be left simply by
moving off either the left or right side. There's yet another Face Mountain
to the far east, but no use yet.

Return to town after some exploring, and several people will flee past Beld in
a panic. An orc will run forward and Beld will draw his sword for battle.
Defeat the orc for an easy LP refill. Beld will run forward into town past many
frantic citizens and come across another orc. Another easy battle. After this,
Ash from the Inn will approach Beld and talk to him. They run towards the
Inn together and see a trio of orcs, one of them a shaman. They draw their
swords and attack. This battle is just as easy as the past two orc encounters,
and now Ash will join the party. His level is lower than Beld's, so be sure to
equip him well.

[SCENARIO II] Part II - Exploration


+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
With Ash in the party, Beld can now enter the temple to the east. Enter,
then go into the door on the right. Beld will speak with the priest inside,
and one of the acolytes will leave. A priest named Unbus will take his place,
say a few words to Beld, then join the party. His many cure spells make
him a great asset to the group. Leave the temple and head east to where the
Face Mountain was to see that it is now a cave. Enter to find another dungeon.

Since Karla's not around with her Map spell, navigating this dungeon is more
trial-and-error than the last. Go up-right and try to open the door at the fork
in the road. It's locked, so head up-left, down-left, up-left, up-right, then
up-left and enter the door. Walk through the room and exit to the left.
Continue to the right along the edge of the dungeon. Don't enter the door
to the bottom-left or it will lock the party out at the dungeon's entrance.
Instead, continue up-right to exit the dungeon and emerge into a field, as a
frightened elf girl runs away.

The party will walk forward and come face to face with three dark elves,
the leader named Ruzebu and two others, one female and one male. A battle
ensues.

follow and kill her with its flame breath.

the other female dark elf attacks the dragon and dies. Beld and his party
attack.

to where the dragon was fought.

30 years have passed. Fahn has ascended the throne, and Beld has founded a
kingdom. Karla's circlet still controls Swan. She stumbles into a temple
and speaks with the priestess therein. She dies and the circlet takes over
the nearby priestess, Leylia.

The scene switches to Parn's village. Parn wakes up and answers his door
An old man steps in and they speak, then Parn walks outside. Head north to
trigger a cutscene with a girl getting chased by a trio of orcs.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Orc (30 LP - 20 Exp - 31 Gold)                                               |

Parn kills one orc, but the other two charge towards him. They are struck back
by an unseen force, then Etoh steps in. He and Parn attack the remaining two
orcs.

|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Orc (30 LP - 20 Exp - 31 Gold)                                               |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
With their foes killed, Parn and Etoh help the girl back to their village,
where they are greeted by a group of the townsfolk. One of them insults Parn's
father and Parn rushes to attack him, but Etoh holds him back. The old man and
his wife take the girl to their home, and Parn and Etoh go to theirs.
Another orc flees from the village outskirts.

Parn wakes up the next day. Head to the basement and open the chests, and
prepare to battle a rat.

with the old man, his wife, and the girl who is resting in bed. Afterwards,
go back to Parn's house and he will go back to sleep.

Parn will wake up during the night after hearing some noise. He jumps to the
window and sees more orcs, and runs outside to stop them. At the same time,
Slayn appears and incinerates one orc with a huge fireball. The pair attack
the remaining orc together.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
After the fight, Parn and Slayn talk a bit. Then Parn wakes up the next day
with Etoh at his door. Speak with him and he will join the party. Now is a good
time to bring up Parn and Etoh's levels, since they both begin at level 1 and
are very weak.

When the party's levels are around 6 or more, head east of town and into the
cave. Follow the path and enter the door, then take the path down-right to
find a treasure chest full of useful equipment.

Return to the door and take the path up-right, past the large empty area, to
a door. Enter and fight the lone orc inside

They excange a few words, then take off. An elf girl drops from the branches
above and follows them.

Upon returning to the city, Parn and Etoh will see that the orcs have returned.
They run to the center of town and join Slayn in fighting the orcs' captain

the fort of Kanon. The party heads to the old man's house and talk for a bit,
then they set out.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Walk over to the left to trigger another cutscene where the party feels tremors
coming from ahead. They run forward to find Karla attacking a pair of soldiers
and a girl named Fuianna. Karla kills the soldiers and goes after the girl,
and the party attacks the witch. She casts a powerful spell and knocks them
down. A scene follows in which Karla talks to a pair of soldiers and teleports
away.

The party awakens in the room of an unknown building. Woodchuck picks the
locked door and everyone can exit the room to fight a skeleton guard.

|Skeleton (900 LP - 9900 Exp - 259 Gold)    SP: Undead                        |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Head to the left door and Woodchuck will pick that lock as well. Fuianna from
before is inside. Etoh speaks with her and she joins as an NPC. Exit the room
and enter the large middle door. The party will be attacked by a pair of
soldiers.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

|Pikeman (800 LP - 4300 Exp - 129 Gold)    SP: Medium range                   |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Afterwards, go south three rooms to exit the building. Head south-east and
enter the town, and talk to the man in the farthest back building. After that,
leave town, cross the bridge and enter the castle.

A man will run towards the party and talk to Fuianna as they enter. They will
all be taken to the throne room, where Parn will speak with King Fahn.
Afterwards, Parn will return to his room in the castle. Talk with Deedlit
twice, then exit the room and head downstairs. Enter the right door to find
the rest of the party. Talk to each of them twice, then return upstairs and
climb the stairs that were previously blocked by soldiers. A large dance
scene will take place, and Deedlit will take Parn to the dance floor. Slayn
walks out the the balcony and finds Ghim there. The scene will return to the
dance, where a bard plays a song and recits a long story, denoting the fates
of the Six Heroes: Wort, Niece, Fleve, Fahn, Beld, and finally Karla.

Parn wakes the next day and goes onto the balcony where he finds Deedlit
playing a lyre. They talk a bit and Deedlit takes off. Then Parn returns to
his room. Leave the room and head upstairs to talk to King Fahn. Now the party
can leave the castle and travel south-west to a previously locked gate and pass
through to the next continent.

|Manticore (800 LP - 4000 Exp - 260 Gold)     SP: Extra move                  |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Follow the path far east, past a lake in the middle of the path, until
reaching a town. Enter and walk up the stairs to the north to talk with an old
man who will take the party into the castle to speak with the king. A soldier
riding a dragon will swoop down in the background, then enter the castle and
deliver some news to the king. Talk to the three men at the table, then go
downstairs and talk to all the people in the rooms on the bottom three floors.
After everyone has been talked to, go to the bottom floor and enter the left
door. Parn and Woodchuck will find a hidden thief.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

|Female Blue Thief (1500 LP - 3000 Exp - 149 Gold)  SP: Poison, Extra move    |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
After the battle, Lion will drop from the ceiling and kill the thief, then
vanish. Head back upstairs to the top floor of the castle and Parn will tell
the king what happened. Exit the castle to the world map. Head north-east to
and through the gate, then north-west to the castle.

Upon arriving at the castle, the party will meet the dark knight Ashram. He
will talk with Parn and then fight him.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Ashram (Infinite LP)                                                         |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Parn will lose the fight, and Ashram will walk away. Afterwards, Parn and
Slayn will talk to the king, then exit the castle. From here, go back to King
Fahn's castle, then head to the north-west corner of the continent and pass
through the wooden gate there. Select the second option and the party will
enter the desert castle. Head north and up the stairs to enter the throne
room, and talk to the soldier furthest back. Afterwards, exit the castle and
select the third option to venture into the desert.

The party will automatically wander around for a couple screens, talking at
each stop. After the second cutscene, a group of green worms will attack.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Green Worm (900 LP - 7340 Exp - 68 Gold)       SP: Extra move                |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
A bit of talking will ensue. The party will travel another screen and encounter
a group of zombie worms.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Green Worm (700 LP - 6330 Exp - 89 Gold)       SP: Undead, Extra move        |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Once again, the party will chat a bit and travel yet another screen. This time,
they encounter a trio of Fire Elementals.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Fire Elemental (1300 LP - 7350 Exp - 74 Gold)  SP: Extra move                |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
After this fight, the party will encounter King Fahn attacking a giant ant.
Parn will rush in and assist Fahn.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

|Giant Ant (1600 LP - 18340 Exp - 2980 Gold)    SP: Extra move                |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Parn then kneels before Fahn and they exchange words. Slayn casts a teleport
spell and they return to the desert castle. Suddenly, Karla appears and sends
a pair of Golems at the party.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Golem (1000 LP - 10900 Exp - 320 Gold)                                       |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Karla will vanish and the party will enter the castle. Return to the throne
room and speak with Fahn. Leave Fahn's desert castle, and choose the third
option. The party will find themselves in a mountainous region that leads
north and south. South leads back to Fahn's desert castle, while the Red
Dragon waits to the north. Be careful: the Red Dragon is a far more difficult
foe than any to date.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Red Dragon (18400 LP - 25580 Exp - 50000 Gold) SP: Fireball                  |
| Note: Red Dragon takes up most of the battle board and doesn't move.        |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The Red Dragon is extremely powerful and worth a huge amount of experience and
gold. It can also be fought at any time if the party returns to the area.

After the fight, go south and return to the desert castle, then exit and choose
the first option to return to the wooden gate. From there, head southeast to
Fahn's castle, enter, and talk to Fahn in the throne room. After some dialogue
with Parn, Slayn and Ghim, exit the castle to the world map and head southwest
to the gate, and pass through. Once on the other side, venture southwest to
a range of mountains and enter the cave there (this was the first dungeon in
Scenario I with Karla). Upon climbing the stairs to the tunnel entrance, Lion
and two soldiers will appear and attack the party.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Lion (2900 LP)                                                               |

|Total (16750 Exp - 315 Gold)                                                 |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Lion will fall back and die after the fight, and the party can enter the
dungeon.

|Lesser Demon (800 LP - 4580 Exp - 167 Gold)    SP: Blind                     |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The path to the other side follows the same route as Karla's trek through.

Follow the path from the entrance, and take the road up-left at the fork. Take
the first path up-right, then the first path up-left, and then head up-right
along the wall of doors. Enter the farthest right door, and Woodchuck will run
forward to examine a pair of gargoyle statues in front of the next door. The
statues come to life and attack.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Lesser Demon (200 LP - 880 Exp - 93 Gold)                                    |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The statues are gone, so enter the door they were guarding and follow the path
up-left then down-left until reaching a fork. Take the path around past the
door, then up-left as far as the path goes. Take two steps down-left, then go
down-right as far as possible. Go down-left until reaching a wall, then
down-right and take the second path down-left. Zig-zag along the path
down-right, down-left, down-right, then follow the bottom wall around to
another fork. Take the first path up-right and follow it around to a staircase.

On the next floor, follow the path up-left, taking the first branch up-right.
Simply follow that path around to a gold door, and enter it. Woodchuck and
Deedlit will find a chest in the middle of the room, and Deed will get sucked
into it. Parn jumps in after her. They both find themselves in an unknown
canyon, and begin walking north. A dragon appears, as does the rest of the
party. A battle ensues.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Dragonet (4500 LP - 21580 Exp - 439 Gold)  SP: Extra move, Fireball          |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
With the Dragon dead, the party will exit the dungeon and automatically walk
over to the same Tower that Karla visited in Scenario I. Before entering, a
cutscene will show Wort in the tower being visited by Karla. Enter the tower
and Karla will vanish, and the party will have a very long chat with Wort and
leave.

When the party exits the Tower area, a cutscene will show Beld talking to his
army from his castle, and another will show Karla laughing in her chamber.
Then the party will be back on the world map. Head southeast to the dungeon
and pass back through uneventfully. Once at the other side, go northeast to
the gate and pass through. Pass Fahn's castle and cross the bridge, then
continue east and pass through the gate. Pass north through the elves' forest
and emerge on the world map. From there, head southeast and enter the gate to
the south of the city. Time for war.

A cutscene will play with Ghim attacking an army of Marmo soldiers. He gets
surrounded, and a flame spell from Slayn takes out the enemies. In another
part of the field, a group of soldiers surround a priest, which turns into a
ghost and kills one of the men. Etoh rushes in and attacks the ghost with the
rest of the party.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

|Ghost (1000 LP - 4945 Exp - 48 Gold)  SP: Undead                             |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
In yet another part of the battlefield, Parn and Deedlit once again encounter
Ashram. Parn agrees to man-to-man combat.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|[Event Battle Enemies]                                                       |
|Ashram (500 LP - 12500 Exp - 1400 Gold)                                      |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
After Ashram falls, Emperor Beld appears, then King Fahn. They exchange words,
the Beld laughs and they fight. After many mighty blows and spells, Fahn falls
and dies. In another scene, Karla laughs in her chamber. She casts a spell
that makes Beld vanish from the battlefield.

After a lot more text, the party rests on the battlefield. Wort appears and
talks some more, and the party finds themselves outside the gate again. Return
northwest to the large tree and pass back to the last continent. Cross the
bridge and enter Fahn's castle. Go to the throne room and talk to the Queen.
A cutscene will play with Parn and Deedlit on a castle balcony, another with
Woodchuck sneaking around the castle and getting caught by Slayn, yet another
with Etoh talking to the Queen, and finally one of Ghim alone on the castle
wall. Parn wakes up the next day and meets Etoh outside his room. They meet
up with the rest of the party on the way out.

Exit the castle and town, then cross the bridge to the east and head to the
northern mountain range. Enter the dungeon there.

From the entrance, follow the path and enter the door. In that room, take the
right door and zig-zag east until reaching the easternmost wall of the
dungeon, the work northwest and pass through a door to enter the room in the
middle of the dungeon. Pass through that room and follow the path southwest
until reaching another door. Instead of entering that door, take the path
northwest and follow the path northeast to reach a staircase in the upper-right
corner of the dungeon. Take those stairs down.

On the next floor, take the upper door and pass through that room. Wind along
the path down-left, then wind up-left to reach a door in the upper-leftmost
corner of the floor. Enter it and the party will be attacked by a Metal Golem.

(VII) [Secrets]

- Easy Normal Battle Win -
To easily win a normal non-event battle, have a priest use their Turn Undead
ability on all the opponents. This will not deal any damage, but it will
reveal the leader of the enemies. Afterwards, simply have a sorcerer cast
Disintegrate on the leader to quickly win the battle.

- Ghost of Fahn Glitch -
After King Fahn dies in the battle with Beld in Scenario IV, return to Fahn's
castle and enter the throne room. Naturally, only the Queen will be there.
Leave the room via the staircase in the corner or the balcony on the left
wall, then return to the throne room. For some reason, Fahn will be seated in
his throne until the party leaves the room.

(VIII) [FAQ]

- What is 'Record of Lodoss War'?
 Record of Lodoss War is the Japanese equivalant of Dungeons & Dragons in
 America. It spawned an anime movie and cartoon series, and this game is
 based upon the movie.

- Why does all the text make no sense?
 Because it's in Japanese. Record of Lodoss War is a Japanese Super Famiciom
 game and was never ported to the American Super Nintendo system.

- So how do I play it?
 Learn Japanese. Wander aimlessly without knowing any of the story. Or if
 you're into emulation, Lina`chan, Nuku-Nuku and Filia's Translations Domain
 (http://translations.animangarpg.org) is working on a translation patch
 for the ROM image of the game.

- Can you send me the ROM?
 No. Don't be lame.

- Can I play this game on my American Super Nintendo system?
 No, and yes. The cartridge will work in an American console, but there are
 two plastic tabs inside the cartridge slot that prevent imported game from
 fitting in properly. They can be easily removed with a pair of pliers, but
 doing so voids the console's warrenty (which probably expired years ago
 anyway). In any case, do so at your own risk.
