A field guide to reconciliation
The False Prophet · Origin Systems 1990
Britannian briefing · A prophecy misunderstood
Gargoyles have seized Britannia's shrines because their dying world names the Avatar as its destroyer. Recover the stolen Codex, learn the truth behind the invasion, and end a war that cannot be solved by conquest alone.
The situation
Gargoyles occupy the shrines while Britannia answers them with fear and steel. Behind the invasion lies the stolen Codex, a collapsing homeland, and a conflict that cannot be solved by conquest alone.
Seek first to understand the enemy named by prophecy.
The theatre
Plan routes across the surface, four dungeon levels, and the Gargoyle Realm using locations and residents recovered from the original game data.
The road ahead
Your Grand Quest progress will appear here.
Before you depart
Understand how your virtues shape starting attributes and later advancement.
The seven questions determine your starting attributes. The chart compares the potential bonuses attached to each virtue.
Experience alone does not grant levels. Meditate at cleansed shrines for permanent attribute growth.
Personal record
Select up to three defining virtues and let Britannia's bards compose your chronicle.
The Avatar's living journal
Follow the required journey in order, Act by Act, then explore Britannia's optional stories without mixing them into the path to the finale.
Open the first act and follow Lord British's summons.
Complete objectives from top to bottom. Later steps unlock only when every requirement before them is finished.
Take these detours whenever they suit your journey. Their progress never blocks or advances the ordered Main Quest.
Dialogue keyword badges reveal compact conversation prompts. Hint opens Seer counsel already attached to that objective.
A successful Avatar relies on loyal companions, powerful equipment, and mastery of the arcane. This almanac serves as your quick reference to the essential resources available throughout the realm.
You may recruit up to eight members to your party. Click on the table headers to sort companions by their strengths and find the perfect allies for your quest.
The cartographer's field guide
Follow the quest from its first shrine to the Gargoyle realm. Every place, character, and hidden passage is traced from the original game.
Routes beneath Britannia
Choose an expedition to locate its entrance on the atlas.
Sometimes the forces of Britannia require a helping hand (or a little humbug). These sanctioned notes document the secret menus, exploits, and platform-specific tricks gathered from veteran Avatars. Use them wisely if virtue permits.
Certain individuals in Britannia will test your knowledge to verify your identity. Use this searchable archive to find the answers you seek. Simply type a keyword from the question (e.g., "Trolls" or "Jux") into the box below.
