| Legend of Zagor | comment |
Legend of Zagor is the 54th entry of the Fighting Fantasy series of Gamebooks, written by Keith Martin, though credited to Ian Livingstone, who was meant to write it, but found he did not have the time to do so, so Martin wrote it instead; he made little effort to copy Livingstone's style, either, as the moment the book was released readers noted how similar the writing style and gameplay were to Martin's, creating a Running Gag in the fandom that Livingstone had stolen the credit for the book from Martin and buried him in his back garden. Livingstone admitted the truth of the book's authorship when prompted in 2014 (it was for a book on the history of the series, and was the first time anyone had directly asked him about it).After the events of Return to Firetop Mountain, Zagor was once again stopped and killed by a brave adventurer, who slew the treacherous revenant Warlock and put an end to his threat to Allansia and Titan... the keyword here is, to Allansia. In the parallel world of Amarilla, a great battle was fought by the forces of good to defeat the powerful Bone Demon plaguing Castle Argent and his armies of dragons, orcs and demons. At the conclusion of the battle, the Bone Demon was sealed forever in the Casket of Souls. However, YOU are soon summoned by the good king Irian of Sanctuary to discuss an urgent matter: using a magical crystal, he contacted the wizard Gereth Yaztromo of Titan, who revealed that the soul of Zagor entered the dimension of Amarilla and was sucked inside the Casket of Souls. Zagor's soul merged with the Bone Demon and escaped, now free to start a new kingdom of ruin and horror from Tower Island. It is up to YOU to take on the role of one of four adventurers (Anvar the Barbarian, Braxus the Warrior, Stubble the Dwarf and Sallazar the Wizard) and undertake a perilous quest: enter Castle Argent, defeat Zagor, and make sure that this time he doesn't return from the dead again to threaten Titan or Amarilla.Legend of Zagor is highly unusual since, as stated above, you can play as four pre-generated characters (though you still have to roll for their Skill, Stamina, and Luck scores), each having unique advantages and disadvantages: Anvar is never taken by surprise but cannot wear metal armor, Braxus can use any weapon and armor he wishes, Stubble is advantaged against certain enemies and traps but is too short for certain sections, and Sallazar is the best spellcaster and can read runes, but cannot use two-handed weapons or wear armor. This also adds to the replay value, as each hero has a different way to reach the end. You can explore many parts of the castle searching for Zagor or the Tower Chests to weaken his powers and are frequently allowed to revisit certain hub locations in case you miss something.On the other hand, as many reviewers point out, there are plenty of combat situations with powerful opponents, more often than not in compulsory battles. There's also a magic system that allows you to spend Magic Points to activate scrolls and items, or if you're Sallazar, cast spells.Also notable for receiving an electronic talking board game adaptation. | |

Swarm of Rats | |
| Legend of Zagor / int_18729bf8 | comment |
Swarm of Rats: The once-lavish banquet hall of Castle Argent is infested by a rodent horde, which attacks you immediately should you choose to enter (you can use a spell to look into the hall, and the moment you realize it's infested by rodents the book will tell you to "never go there"). You fight the swarm as a single creature, and even if you win, you risk catching the Bubonic Plague, a disease which periodically drains your stamina. | |

Dressing as the Enemy: If you're using Braxus or Sallazar and enter the ruined dame's powder room you can salvage some make-up and powders to pass yourself as a Zombie, which allows you to infiltrate Thulu's Throne Room unnoticed and get the advantage of surprise. | |

Balance, Power, Skill, Gimmick: The four heroes exemplify this. The Jack of All Stats Braxus, who can use any weapon or armor, is balanced; Anvar, who has the highest raw Skill and Stamina potential, is the power character; Stubble, who relies on luck and other dwarfish advantages, counts as skill; and Sallazar, who isn't physically strong but has magic to make up for it, is the gimmick character. | |

Kryptonite Factor | |
| Legend of Zagor / int_22ecc839 | comment |
Kryptonite Factor: The Golden Medallions and Silver Daggers are these to Zagor himself. They reduce his stats. The Onyx Staff, with the knowledge of the symbols, can be used to deal massive damage to four of Zagor's most powerful creatures. You can get your hands on some grave dust that will do critical damage to any undead creature. Likewise, you can find some orcbane that you can apply to your weapons to, as the name suggests, deal extra damage to orcs. | |

Anchored Teleportation: Players who chose Sallazar the Wizard as their character can gain access to the wizard-exclusive Teleport Spell, which works only in the presence of specific magic portals (usually disguised as mirrors, paintings, etc) and transports them to a fixed location within Castle Argent. However, its results are usually impractical - Sallazar can perform a Dungeon Bypass and skip some dangerous bosses, but he will also miss out specific items necessary for his quest. | |

Gotta Catch Them All: In the introduction, you're advised to look for the Tower Chests (which, however, are trapped and you risk either a Luck point or 3 Damage points each) to obtain either the Gold Medallions or the Silver Daggers. The former lower Zagor's skill score, the latter works for his stamina. They're not mandatory, but the more you have, the easier the final battle gets. | |

The Dragon | |
| Legend of Zagor / int_53f5119f | comment |
The Dragon: While a Continuity Nod to the Red Dragon of the first book, the War Dragon is much more than a mere Right-Hand Attack Dog. He leads the Bone Demons' forces and is heavily implied to have prevented them from collapsing entirely, and kept his evil influence over Castle Argent intact. He is the second-to-last boss and the second mightiest foe of the game, roughly as dangerous as his lord, having SKILL 15, STAMINA 20 and a slew of dangerous attacks. | |

Magic Potion: There are various potions that can help you on your quest, including the usual potions that restores SKILL and STAMINA, an anti-venom (which makes you immune to poison attacks) and, the rarest of all, the Potion of Flying that can only be obtained in two areas. | |

The Needless: Sir Davian has a magic ring which allows him to survive without food or water, where he had remained stuck in the Castle's dungeon for an unspecified amount of time without requiring sustenance. The only way you can obtain this ring is by stealing from Davian's corpse after killing him, but doing so makes you miss out a clue on obtaining Sir Bethel's magical sword, and really isn't advised. | |

If you take too long after that, he'll fully regenerate and disembowel you. | |

One relic you find is a Lava Sphere made by the Dwarves of Grundia, which will explode into a ball of flames once activated.

As a nod to the latter book, the only thing left of Zagor was his skeletal left arm, which can be seen embedded in his Demon form's chest, and his treasure chest is filled with Golden Zagors, the money he mints. | |

Furthermore, it's possible to obtain more than one of these weapons, but only the mentioned character can get the bonuses from said weapon (for example, Braxus doesn't get any bonus from the Barbarian Axe, even if he can use it. | |

Genius Bruiser: Grool, the cyclopean ogre that guards one of the keys to Zagor's sanctum. As brutish as an ogre is, he's also smart enough to teleport away when things look bad, heal himself with potions if he has the chance, and even use a freaking ballista against you! | |

Berserk Button: The Dark Elf Mage is a mortal enemy of Remstar; mention his name in his presence and he'll go ballistic. The Orc Chieftain really hates dwarves, and gains a bonus when fighting Stubble. | |

Healing Spring | |
| Legend of Zagor / int_bd0415e2 | comment |
Healing Spring: One with limited healing capacity, however. The interior garden of Castle Argent contains a healing fountain whose waters can restore limited amounts of stamina, and you can collect some of them if you happen to have glass bottles in your inventory. But once you're done collecting, the fountain runs dry and you won't be able to come back for more. | |

Dragon Hoard | |
| Legend of Zagor / int_c0091e94 | comment |
Dragon Hoard: You can encounter two different dragons in the adventure - a young dragon implied to be related to the Bone Demon's War Dragon, and later the great War Dragon itself - and sure enough, both of them are shown asleep near piles of treasure. Your character even lampshades this trope after defeating the War Dragon, thinking aloud where are the treasure troves that dragons are known for guarding. | |

Fun with Acronyms | |
| Legend of Zagor / int_c25c7890 | comment |
Fun with Acronyms: Minor example, in order to unlock the Meditation Chamber where you can fully heal yourself at any time, you must get four gems in another room and use them in the right order, using the first letter of the gems' names to solve the riddle. The gems are ruby, emerald, sapphire and topaz, hence the password is rest. | |

Red Herring: In the ruined village outside Castle Argent, you can find a vision Pit which, if you throw a coin in it, will advise you not to trust Remstar the Wizard. While you can fight him, it's possible to release him from his torment without a fight. Casting an Open spell on the door to Zagor's sanctum will just have Zagor mock you for wasting your precious magic on a door that wasn't even magically trapped. | |

Human Head on the Wall | |

Human Head on the Wall: You can come across Mungo's trophy room — a single bare room displaying four preserved heads of former victims of the Bone Demon's takeover of the fortress, respectively belonging to a court jester, a viscount, a duke, and a castellan. If you have enough magic points, you can try to summon one of their ghosts through the decapitated heads, although the results may vary note the jester turns out to have become an insane spirit and chases you out of the room, the viscount and the duke fails to show any response, while the castellan on the other hand will provide you a useful clue . | |

MacGuffin Guardian: Plentiful, guarding important stuff: The four Heraldic Rooms are guarded by Animated Armors (two of them for two rooms), a Stone Colossus and a Plant Golem. Each of the four Infinity +1 Sword weapons are kept by a monster, while the Champion Hellhorn and Grool guards the Dragonbone Keys leading to Zagor's inner sanctum. Most of the time you can actually run away from the room to avoid combat. Subverted with the Mutant Chaos Ogre: despite guarding a chest in his room, he explodes into a veritable flood of acid when killed, which melts the entire room, chest included. | |
