LORE (Loremasters journal)
"Hubgomery Redflame, the red wizard... the one who betrayed the vampire king in the north... According to my sources he is the father of fire magic, he invented pyroblast and fireball... he is called the red wizard for a reason... he brought fire magic to the tower and did research on fire spells for hundreds of years before even i was a vampire... how can i even attempt to defeat such a powerful creature... i only know that i must do what my king demands... i must try.. so i came to this tower... to find this wizard... and figure out a way to defeat him... for my king and my queen..."
