Crocaryx

A mysterious reptilian people who dwell in the long-lost, abandoned underground city of Zaaryx. Initially appearing to be enemies because they stalk Lone Wolf, they turn out to be allies if he is able to approach them successfully and speak their language. They are good-aligned and have been awaiting a time when they can hand over the Lorestone which was left in their protection.

They appear to exist only for the task of guarding the Lorestone and feel its handover to be the beginning of their decline and extinction.

Despite being ancient, they have many powerful and unusual technologies. They hate and fight the Zaaryx Ghouls.
They appear in Lone Wolf 9: The Cauldron of Terror.

star wars galaxies

1. An impressively in-depth MMORPG in which one can endeavor to play as one of many mundane professions, such as Tailor and Cook and Architect. Players can also, of course, play as fighting characters and kill anything they encounter.
2. A waste of time.
Dude, I just got this new game, Star Wars Galaxies!

Woah. I haven't gone outside for a month, and my goldfish died.

Vashna

First lord of the Darklords in Lone Wolf. Slain by Ulnar I in times long ago. Is subject to repeated attempts to revive/recall his spirit, in Lone Wolf gamebooks 4 and 16 and Legends of Lone Wolf 8 (if I remember the numbers right). Presumably extremely powerful.
Also makes a good swear-word.

"In Vashna's name..."

"By Vashna, I'll kick your ass!"

itikar

One of a species of large, apparently carniverous birds used by the army of Vassagonia in the fantasy world of Magnamund. An itikar is like a giant eagle or hawk, and is ridden saddled, like a horse. The birds are ferocious and hard to tame, and make fearsome adversaries in combat.
In Lone Wolf 5: Shadow on the Sand, Lone Wolf escapes from the zakhan's palace by riding on an itikar.

Leviathan

1) any large, powerful monster or creature.

2) a giant whale in Greek (or is it Roman?) mythology.

3) a similar giant whale in Final Fantasy games.

4) title of a book by Thomas Hobbes, which gives an authoritarian argument that flaws in human nature make the state necessary.

5) a name for the state, especially an authoritarian and far-reaching state, derived from Hobbes's book.
The front cover of Hobbes's book shows a picture of a giant king, the state, made up of lots of little people.

The irony is that Hobbes is effectively advocating the creation of a "monster", which is what Leviathan initially was.

Curufin

One of the seven sons of Feanor in Tolkien's The Silmarillion, he was involved in the exploits of his brother Celegorm and was the only other son of Feanor involved in the kidnapping of Luthien. He was slain along with Celegorm and Caranthir while battling Elwing's forces in Arvernien.

He was the official master of Huan the wolfhound, who followed him into exile. But Huan turned against him, helping Luthien to escape.
He's a nasty pointy-eared bastard like Celegorm.
