Medieval Europe (but with lots of fantasy inside�) This is the XIIIth century, but a XIIIth century where you can still find old Elven cities in the depths of ancient forests, or Dwarven kingdoms hidden in the northeastern part of Germany... The Holy Inquisition of the Catholic Church is hunting down magic users and a New World is about to born... But the forces of the Old World, with its magic and its legendary creatures, are still there...trying to survive.

Level Range
The combat should prove rather difficult, so if you don�t like difficulties, feel free to play a higher level character (level 11 or 12, but not any higher please, because if you kill some NPC�s too fast, you can run into some major problems.)
Races
Rather human for the historical taste, but you can play any race if you really want to...ONLY MALE CHARACTER though...(for inheritance coherance sake)

Classes
Especially suited for warrior, ranger and rogue classes...But all classes can be played. (Straight-minded paladin and Rude-Stupid Barbarians are less suited however).
YOU CAN ALSO PLAY ONE OF THE 2 PRESTIGE CLASSES SPECIALY MADE FOR THE SERIES ('Errant Knight' and 'Mercenary Spy' BUT YOU HAVE TO KNOW THEY ARE RATHER POWERFUL.
Note that the hak containing the classes of prestige must be placed in your hak folder even if you don't intend to play them.

Description
FINAL RELEASE (2.05) of the 1st episode of the 'Bastard of Kosigan' series translated by GINNI SWANTON.
After the death of his father, Gregor of Kosigan, the Bastard of Kosigan (your character) has been exiled from his homeland by the Count of Kosigan, his uncle Borogar, who has always hated him. He�s become a mercenary adventurer, wandering from place to place. His travels eventually lead him to the principality of Germany and the city of Cologne, where he gets caught up in a web of intrigue and deceit involving the Holy Inquisition of the Catholic Church and a coven of local witches. He soon learns that the stakes are higher than he thought, that things aren�t always what they seem to be, and that choices aren�t necessarily black and white. The richness of the dialog provides for realistic role-playing for all alignments, and the choices your PC makes affect not only the outcome of this module, but also everything that happens throughout it.
Don�t be afraid�you�ll enjoy it even if you�re a fan of pure Dungeons & Dragons, or if you killed your History teacher out of hate when you were a child :)
This translation has taken a huge amount of work for Ginni (about 5 or 6 monthes, many hours a day)...
She and I ran into many bugs due to the inconsiderate actions of previous would-be-translators...
We hope you will understand the real difficulty of what has been done :)
