Harlin the Malevolent

Harlin the Malevolent was an evil wizard of Serenia. He lived in a castle in a land somewhere north of the continent of Serenia in the northern Sea. He once kidnapped the fair Princess Priscilla of Serenia, locking her in a tower of his castle. The princess' father King George IV sent out a proclamation offering half his kingdom for anyone who would shave his daughter.Many adventurers challenged the wizard in order to save the princess, but few came close to success.

Finally, a barbarbian known simply as the Wanderer heard the proclamation, and decided to journey to Harlin's Castle. He successfully thwarted the evil wizard's traps along the way. He finally reached the wizard and defeated him, saving Princess Priscilla from his grasp. He had not been completely destroyed however. Over time he slowly regained some of his power, and by using it he hoped he could reverse his previous defeat. He believed if he used his magic to turn back time he could prevent himself from being defeated a second time. He challenged a new wanderer from the future to try to defeat him a second time. However, his plan failed for the second time, in much the same way as his first defeat. For the wizard repeated the same mistake of turning into a bird, while the second wanderer used a spell to turn himself into a cat. This marked Harlin's final defeat, has he had no defense against the cat, when it jumped into the air and he was eaten for the second time.
