Description
This is the first chapter in my series 'The Chronicles of Lone Wolf', based on the Lone Wolf gamebook series of the '80's.
This module was revised as of 8/7/2005. To play this module, you will need to create a new character, using the custom Kai Lord class provided with the module. You will also need to make your character Male, and use the name 'Lone Wolf'. This is done for story purposes. Other than that, you are welcome to customize your character as you see fit.
The Kai Lord class grants you one special feat per level from a 'Kai Discipline' feat list. You will have to use this extra feat on the Kai Discipline list. Please refer to the in-game descriptions for the abilities granted from these Kai Disciplines.

Still a great module, playing these again after many years of being away from NWN. It would be nice to be able to open the module in the toolset, though, so I could correct the cloak issue. I guess the HAKs prevent that by causing an access violation error.

Try using stuffit expander on the .exe file, it usually works.

How is one supposed to install this mod in a Mac/Linux OS?

Hi, Enjoyed this mod. and looking forward to the second installment. The only "Lone Wolf" that I ever owned was book #5 the "Shadow on the Sand" by Joe Dever and Gary Chalk. (Which I still have.) Just the facts from Max

Plays like a good movie. THE GOOD .Dialogue really shines, and combined with strong characters, cliche but effective events, make it superlative in this module. .No XP for kills encourages alternate task resolution (e.g., stealth works in the Lord of the Hill), as well as the use of abilities which might normally have been shunned because they soak XP (e.g., using an Animal Empathy Dominated animal). .Key characters show strong personality, if rather archetypical. THE BAD Miscellaneous observations: .Overall, this module could still use some polishing and debugging, but the flaws do not break the game, and will generally not be noticed. For example: > Storm Hawk has Kai Test dialogue in the Master's Barracks when he should not be there at all, but in the Tower of the Sun. >Blank journal entry "JT_THE_TEST_OF_SPIRIT". >Riddle answer variants need to be accounted for more. E.g., Steps vs. footsteps. .Constant prostration before the Grandmaster was a bit much. THE WIERD .Due to update 1.68, the cloak given to the character has a second Bioware cloak flowing in and out. Did not notice any problems per se, however, so it's probably just cosmetic. OVERALL If you enjoy something like Harry Potter for the interplay of characters, definitely download this module. The first part is composed of what could be called juvenile drama, and I really wondered if the students ought not all be using halfling models (to make them "teens") to reflect the age they act. The second part, the serious test part of the module shows excellent alternative-to-combat-resolution scenarios that very rarely appear in modules. Just to play through those is worth downloading this module. _________________________ PC Game Reviews, Hints, and Walkthroughs -- The Fantasy Art of Computer Games

the answer is 729, just multiply it by 9

SPOILER REQUEST: I'm at my wit's end trying to figure out one of the riddle: 6561-___-81-9 It seems like it should go 6561 -> 171 -> 81 -> 9 but that doesn't work.

Incredible recreation of the Lone Wolf world. This first module does a wonderful job of introducing you to that world, while introducing seeds to fuel further adventures. _________________________ NWN: Shifter Expanded Classes hak, GLWizard Spell Pack NWN2: GLWizard Spellpack with Extra Invocations

Was that a joke? Anyways, you're probably refering to Shadows of Undrentide, an expansion pack for Neverwinter Nights.

I'm told that I must have Shadows of Something installed before I can play this module. I've installed ALL of the refrenced "hakpacks," and still recieve this error. Can anyone offer me some help please?
