Olikus Trevaluskas is a gnome, well known throughout Karosko, a large city with enough danger and intrigue to satisfy any adventurer. When two dim-witted rogues from a local guild approach him to help rescue the daughter of a high-ranking guildmember, he accompanies them on their quest. Though these two have a history of being nothing but trouble for the diminutive warrior, he ventures nonetheless into the sewers beneath the city to confront the creature which holds the girl captive.
