| Plot Summary of Noggle Stones |
"While searching for the lost ruins of an ancient temple, the mad goblin scholar, Bugbear, and his poor cousin, Tudmire, come into possession of a most peculiar scroll. It is through this scroll that the worlds of fey and humanity are suddenly and inadvertently thrust together. Allying themselves with the awkward human stage magician, Martin Manchester, and the fierce warrior woman, Maga, Bugbear and Tudmire must rally the frightened folk of the small town of Willow Prairie against the gathering evil... an evil that has been awakened by the scroll... an evil that hungers for revenge! Can Bugbear decipher the mysterious scroll in time to stem this tide of evil? Can Manchester conquer his own fears and lead the patriots of Willow Prairie into battle against a frothing army of animal-men? Can Maga abandon her ancient order and give her heart to a mortal man? Perhaps these questions can only be answered in the ancient secrets hidden within a game called Noggle Stones!"
Wil Radcliffe, Resident Scholar
