Keyboard (Redefinable) VAMPIRE Historical Background The year 2987... Brok the Brave found himself on the high- security planet Hawkland. His life had turned into a daily routine of synthetic drugs and phsychological sessions to change his behaviour and destroy his instinct of independence. When all was lost for him, hope sprang up: an emissary from the planets of Sol 1 proposed the greatest challenge of his life: to liberate the planet Earth and its space stations from Dracule and his vampires, who were subjecting the people to a lethal nightmare. The Plot In order to destroy Count Dracula, Brok the Brave must descend into the suffocating atmosphere of terror which envelops his castle. He must struggle against all the traps and enemies he finds on his trail, never wavering, without a look behind or the doubt that could cost him his life. The castle has two parts: the underground, full of dangers and traps and the surface, where nothing is easy. Brok must get 3 keys to open doors a list of key objects which enable him to progress through the lbyrinth, and the three symbols which will finish off the beast Dracula - stake, hammer and cross. To successfully complete the mission Brok must follow the advice of the pophetic poem found in the book of wisdom: "To destroy the hellish beast whose black teeth absorb all blood You must descend to where no light will reach And find the keys which open all doors, Open the shuttered windows and when the rays of sunlight flood the rooms find those magic objects which will destroy the vampire of darkness: Two crossed sticks, the symbol of the power of white magic over black; Thor's weaponm symbol of the power which metes out just vengeance; A pin-sharp stake, symbol of the end of immortality for a vampire."
