Event 1

You still have no clue how this could happen to you. But fact is, at the last meeting of Necromancers and Death Knights suddenly Walking Dead were the issue and all made fun of them and your special ability with them. When one of them, an arrogant Vampire named Thant, called them Crawling Dead and the most useless creatures ever, that did it and, well... You can't remember everything clearly, but you made a bet with him that you would conquer his precious town within 3 months with Walking Dead only! What you still know is, that this Thant will have an army consisting of undead creatures except Walking Dead or Zombies. Who needs those buggers? was his comment. I'll beat your Crawling Dead with a few Ghost Dragons. He may be right! You can't remember all the rules for this little contest, but just as you struggle to remember you see a Dread Knight in shiny armor arriving. Without any comment he hands you a volume as big as a tombstone and rides back. The volume is really impressive, leatherbound with golden letters imprinted on it. RULES FOR THE THANT-STRAKER CONTEST, you read. You turn the first page. Rule 1: You begin with no money and resources at all. Furthermore you'll have no access to a town. You can't gain any experience. You will have the Cloak of the Undead King with Necromancy ability at basic level only... Disgusted you shut the book. You can't even remember the stake for this bet. Maybe a handsome sum of gold. Oh well, you'll probably be a poor Death Knight after this is over...
Event2

Rule 2: There will be 4 referees placed on the playfield, 2 Necromancers and 2 Death Knights. They will watch your progress to make sure no rules are broken, but they are just neutral watchers. They can't and won't act... Referees? That seems to indicate that it would be possible to break the rules. Hmm...
Event 3

Rule 3: Only 1st level spells may be used! You have an inkling that this can't be good for you. In fact you are quite convinced that you'll lose your bet without the benefits of higher level spells. You decide to record all higher level spells you can find in your spell book. Recording is not using, right? Who knows what will happen? Furthermore you remember vaguely that this Thant has access to an awesome spell called Animate Dead, a 3rd level spell, and you doubt that he won't use it. In a sudden impulse you tear the page that rule is written on out of the book. To hell with that rule! You look left and you look right. No referee to be seen. Good. No one has been watching you. No one except your loyal followers, that is. And they won't tell anybody. You find a message in the morning: All stacks of Walking Dead you'll meet will join you, but beware: Thant will try to have them killed! It seems, someone has a bet running on you or is there another explanation for this kind of help?
Event 4

Rule 4: This underground cavern is your playfield. You have 3 months to build your army there and only there. You are not allowed to leave the cavern except to visit my town through the Subterrainean Gate in the middle of it. I will stay in my town and await you and your puny army there. This gets worse by the day. Somehow you can't picture yourself NOT going overground if there is an entrance. You tear out another page. This tearing out of pages is becoming a habit... Another message from your unknown benefactors: There will be Scholars waiting for you who will help you further your cause. Not getting any experience doesn't mean you can't get primary and secondary skill advancements. Get to them before Thant gets them! Right. Good point!
Event 5

...Rule 7: You are not allowed to advance your secondary skills. Oops, too late. What a pity. Your face bursts into a wide grin. Shrugging you tear this page out of the volume... Another message from your benefactors: Don't believe that you will have to fight some Ghost Dragons only. Prepare to fight a force that would be able to wage a medium war! We will try to keep you informed about what you will have to face. Uh oh. This could get ugly.
Event 6

So the first week is over and you made some progress. Your army has grown steadily and you were able to lay your hands on some artifacts. The fights went well with Zombies being dumb without a leader and Skeletons and Wights doing not that much damage. You are a bit reassured. Maybe you can indeed do it!
Event 7

...Rule 18: You are not allowed the help of another hero... Should you dismiss Gunnar? Heck, what a silly question! Shaking your head you tear another page out of the volume. If you go on like this you'll end with a booklet thin as a leaf. Which would be just as well. The thing is still much too heavy anyway.
Event 8

Finally you turn the last page of the rules volume which isn't nowhere near as thick as it was when you got it. Stakes is written there. As you are reading your normally dark brown face takes on an unhealthy tan tint. Some would even call it ashen. The loser will serve the winner as a common Skeleton as long as his undead existence continues. And there, just under the ungainly scribble you prefer to read as Taint instead of Thant, you see your signature. People nowadays take things much too serious, it seems. There are even witnesses. Nagash and Xsi for the Necromancers and Isra and Clavius for the Death Knights. You stare at the rows of Walking Dead that you've massed already. Uncounted undead eyes meet your stare in a silent plea. At least that's what you read in it: Don't doubt us. Right. Every army is as good or bad as its leader. There is no time for desperation. You will lead your loyal followers to glory - and spare yourself the fate of serving Thant as a Skeleton in the process!
Event 9

One of your loyal followers brought you a message this morning: Thant raises a big army. It seems he doesn't want to take unnecessary risks. At this point we don't know what forces he can muster. However, he has a fully built up Mage Guild and is hiring all creatures available to him. Furthermore he paid a visit to some ancient graves to retrieve a couple of artifacts. As a hero Thant will have Attack and Defense level about 10 and better values in Spell Power and Knowledge. He won't get better in that department, but his army will continue to grow. You gulp down the bile rising in your throat. You wonder if undeath as a Skeleton is really so bad.
Event 10

The week began well, but now you have the feeling that things are stagnating. You have the help of another hero which is good, but you are lacking in the spell department and one or two more artifacts couldn't hurt. However, you are quite satisfied with the choice you made at the Universities, so all is not lost, even though thinking of Liches... *shudder*...
Event 11

We know now that Thant has expert Earth Magic and all kinds of useful and dangerous spells. Aside of Animate Dead, that is. However, his only pure damage spell seems to be Chain Lightning. In case this last comment is intended to reassure you it doesn't do a good job. While you have been able to muster a sizeable army you have no inkling how many Walking Dead you'll need to have a fair chance against Thant. And you'll still need some more useful spells and artifacts.
Event 12

Thant had a fully built town at the start of this contest, so his army grows every week by 2 Ghost Dragon, 4 Dread Knights, 6 Power Liches, 8 Vampire Lords, 14 Wraiths and 30 Skeleton Warriors except in the first week where he got only half of that. However, we don't know, yet, what he started with. We will keep you informed. Great, just great.
Event 13

We won't be able to garner more informations about Thant's army, but it seems that you'll have to mass at least 1000 Walking Dead if you want to have a chance to beat him. This is the last message you'll get. We wish you all the best of luck. So be it.

It's like the Earth itself is shaking. Houses build there tend to fall in after some time. It must be some kind of spell. But be warned, Sir Death Knight. There are terrible monsters lurking there...

Out of Thant's town a strange rattling can be heard. The sound is LOUD like from thousands of Bones. A hollow laughter booms over the town walls. This is ridiculous, Straker. I just wanted to see if you count them. Here is the rest of your Crawling Dead. Except one. I'll keep one as a memory. You don't mind or do you? You grind your teeth. You'll show that bastard who keeps what! Okay, enough of this little charade, Thant continues. You may have noticed that you can't go back and that there's no referee watching. You didn't really think I would limit myself to first level spells, now, or did you? So come on in for your last battle - you last battle as a human, that is. Suits me fine, you answer. You may be in for a surprise.

- Сообщение: After your eyes have adjusted to the harsh sunlight you see a strange scene before you. Zombies are laying siege to a Trading Post where some villagers have taken shelter and try to defend themselves. The Zombies seem to have no leader and while you are pondering what's going on here you see two Zombies attacking an in a country way pretty girl and biting big chunks out of one of her arms and back and heartbeats after that the girl is down and out, probably dead, while her attackers lose interest in her. Cannibalistic Zombies? You never heard something like that. And it gets even stranger! The seemingly dead girl scrambles to her feet and joins the other Zombies, obviously herself a Zombie now! While this seems to be a most effective way to make Zombies out of living beings, someone has to control what seems to be a plague. If these Zombies who are obviously acting on themselves will further spread this plague it won't take long until there are only Zombies and nothing else. You can't let that happen! You will end this plague here and now! It seems like a good idea to spare the surviving villagers. You may learn something useful here!

You apprehensively wonder, if you have anything you need before going through it. Somehow you can't escape the feeling that you should have both skills you learned what seems to be a year ago at the universities on expert level before you go through that monolith. That feeling may be treacherous, but somehow you doubt it...

Odd, that this portal would be guarded. Isn't it? You can see about a dozen Ghost Dragons and after observing them a while you get the impression that they are excited. While a dozen Ghost Dragons is no small force they can't harm you much when you come back here eventually to face Thant. Hmmm....

When you meet his gaze he blinks, then pointedly turns his horse and looks in the direction of the mountains where he seems to find fascinating things like cliffs and trees to warch. That's more than a hint, actually. It's a demonstration. Those Death Knights not only seems to be on your side, they seem to be more clever than the Necromancers at that having apparently occupied key points. You are beginning to get an idea of who's helping you here.
