So, what’s the behind the scenes stuff on this? Well, first it WAs indeed inspired by our only Earthly bermuda Triangle, only I wanted …

Characters Of Maldene: Quickfoot And Blag-ak
Two of the characters of the epic Maldene cannot be told of separately, for they run together much like Mutt and Jeff of the comics of old. An odd team, they are part beloved characters and part comic relief. Blag-ak is a large ogre with a vocabulary that only allows him to utter about four …

Characters of Maldene: Miro
Every good epic has its villain, and for Maldene this is Miro (pronounced MY-RO). His origins unknown, his power undeniable, he is the most evil, most feared being on Maldene… or perhaps any other world.

Characters of Maldene: Sindar
A shy young wizard, almost as highly intelligent as his friend Sabu, who also happens to be just a bit psychic. How far can he stretch this psychic potential? Who knows. What is known is that the verbal exchanges between these two intellectual giants can often be exceedingly frustrating for Eldar who prefers more simple …

Characters of Maldene: Bronto
Every story needs its strong man, and for Maldene, Bronto is it. A normal enough Human but for two shining attributes. The strength of an ogre and strong enough in combat, yet he would just as readily prefer to win a battle by way of a tavern and a good stout mug. Spend the day …
