A local monster named Firebrand from the Ghoul Realm was busy training in the arts of the warrior. He is a young and powerful gargoyle - human in shape, yet he has leathery wings with massive claws on his hands and feet. He studies at the Warrior's Training Center to use his combat talents in defense of the Ghoul Realm. His time comes (sooner than expected), as a mysterious black light appeared one day and drained the magic from the land.
