THE VIKINGS' STORY
It was a day that the members of the Viking village looked forward to every
year. On this day everyone in the village celebrated the fall harvest with
contests of bravery and skill throughout the afternoon and a grand feast at
dusk.
The most anticipated event of the day was the hunt. In this competition,
the best huntsmen from the village venture into the wilderness, to see who
could catch the most game for the evening's feast. By noon, all the
participants had arrived at the starting point of the hunt, except for three
Vikings who lived just outside the village. Since their tardiness was
nothing new, the decision was made to start the hunt. without them. Upon
hearing the horn, indicating the beginning of the competition, Olaf the
Stout and his two buddies, Baleog the Fierce and Eric the Swift, simply
rushed into the forest to prevent the others from having too great of a head
start.
Meanwhile, the infamous intergalactic zookeeper, Tomator, piloted his space
craft to Earth through a fiery vortex that appeared high above the fjords of
the Baltic Sea. Tomator was sure that he could find adequate specimens for
his zoo on this tiny planet. He commanded his ship to begin its descent as
he made preparations to go on a hunt of his own.
As Olaf the Stout, Baleog the Fierce and Eric the Swift walked home from the
feast they were still bragging over their triumphs in the hunt. When each
brother had finished claiming that he was a better hunter than the other
two, they retired to their cottages, oblivious to the strange flying object
that had appeared directly over their village.
Tomator brought his craft closer to the ground, trying to locate the three
specimens that he had previously chosen. He had noticed them earlier, when
they appeared to be the victors of some primitive ritual of skill and
strength. After a few minutes, Tomator's computer located the selected
humans and began to teleport his unsuspecting captives aboard his ship.
Eric, the swiftest of the Vikings, was awakened suddenly to find himself
suspended above his bed and being pulled upward. Despite his efforts to
resist, he was drawn through the top of his hut and into the night sky.
Next, Olaf the Stout and Baleog the Fierce experienced the same fate as they
too were pulled from their beds, toward the strange metallic object in the sky.
With the acquisition complete, Tomator took his craft out of orbit. Due to
a short circuit during the teleportation process, the Vikings materialized
in the corridors of Tomator's ship rather than in his specimen room. Now
the Vikings only hope to return home in the use of their skills and the
strange vortices that can carry them through time and space.
Your story begins with three Lost Vikings aboard Tomator's ship, and only
with your help and expertise can they find their way back home.
You must guide the Lost Vikings through the complex maze of Tomator's space
craft. Use Eric's speed, Baleog's weaponry and Olaf's defensive abilities
to help return these poor lost souls to their village.

DESIRED BIRTHDAY
PRESENT: A Football Helmet
FAVORITE HOLIDAY: Groundhog Day
FAVORITE QUOTE: "It is better to run and jump away from enemies than it is
to let them smash you into little pieces."
COMMENTS: The tactical genius and self-proclaimed leader of the party.
Eric is the swiftest and most agile of the Vikings which makes
him an indispensable part of any expedition. His wit and
resourcefulness are often key to resolving difficult situations.
However, he has a short attention span and gets easily
agitated by sitting in the same place too long. In fact, his
patience is often times too thin to tolerate his two brothers.
Despite these shortcomings, he proves to be a valuable
companion on any adventure.
STRENGTHS: Eric is the swiftest Viking. He can outrun any enemy and leap
high into the air. He also has a head of stone which he can use to bash
open walls.
WEAKNESSES: Erik has no defensive capabilities, which leaves him very
vulnerable if he goes out scouting by himself. His speed can also be a
liability at times if you are not careful.
NAME: Baleog the Fierce
AGE: 25
HEIGHT: 6' 0"
WEIGHT: 220 lbs.
SPECIALTY: Combat, Chopping, Slicing, and Dicing.

VACATION SPOT: Iceland
FAVORITE VOWEL: A
FAVORITE HOLIDAY: Labor Day
FAVORITE BAND: Aerosmith
FAVORITE QUOTE: "Enter the mill and you will come out floury and baked" -
unknown Danish Baker
PRIZED
POSSESSIONS: Sword shaped letter opener, Long Underwear
COMMENTS: Baleog's enormous ego is tolerable only in light of
the martial skill he provides to the expedition.
When he's not accusing his brothers of being lazy
or weak, Baleog can often be found sharpening his
sword and contemplating his strategy for world
conquest. Nonetheless, despite his sometimes less than
pleasant company, Baleog is a fierce foe to any that
stand in a party's way.
STRENGTHS: Baleog can attack with his sword and shoot arrows.
He can also use arrows to activate switches that
are a long distance away.
WEAKNESSES: He has not yet mastered the art of defense. Therefore
he usually hides behind Olaf's shield during battles
with formidable foes.
NAME: Olaf the Stout
AGE: 23
HEIGHT: 6' 2"
WEIGHT: 320 lbs.
SPECIALTY: Defense, Aeronautics, Comedic Relief
EQUIPMENT: Shield, Belly, A Silly Laugh
OCCUPATION: Mercenary, Winchell's Poster Boy
HOBBIES: Para-Sailing, Bungee Jumping
FAVORITE FOOD: Meatloaf, Sprinkled Doughnuts

Dinner, My Dinner with Andre
FAVORITE RELATIVE: Uncle Beorn
FAVORITE HOLIDAY: Thanksgiving Day
FAVORITE BOOKS: ABC-123, Green Eggs and Ham
FAVORITE QUOTE: "Life is just a big banana. Be careful not to slip
on the peel and all will turn out fine." - Uncle Beorn
FAMILY: Married with two children
FAVORITE TOY: Yellow Rubber Duck named Elvis
COMMENTS: This jovial Viking, with his hardy constitution and
steadfast resolve, can be counted on in any situation.
His appetite for adventure is rivaled only by his
passion for pastries. Unfortunately, he is often
seized by unprovoked laughing fits, making extended
travel with him somewhat tiresome. His hulking
presence is, however, greatly appreciated in the
heart of battle.
STRENGTHS: He can use his shield to block enemies and their
shots. Can also hold shield above his head and float
long distances, which gives him great maneuverability.
WEAKNESSES: Has to wait for Baleog in combat situations and his
shield can not always protect him and the other Vikings
from certain foes that have jumping capabilities of
their own.
Eric: My name is Eric the Swift. I can run like the wind and leap
tall huts in a single bound. It is time for me, Baleog, and
Olaf to go hunting.
Wife: Have a nice day, honey.
Olaf: I am Olaf the Stout. I can block anything with my shield.
Baleog: I am Baleog the Fierce. I am the toughest Viking in the land.
No one can defeat me.
Eric: Another successful day of hunting. Life is good. I hope I
never have to leave my beloved village.
Wife: My hero!

No more mistakes, okay!

Baleog: Be happy you have another chance?
Olaf: Baleog, that was profound.
3

4
Eric: Not third place again? Failure is so discouraging!
Baleog: Cheer up, Eric. Maybe this time we won't fail.
Maybe we can just settle for some minor setbacks.
Olaf: What a deal.
5
Olaf: Hey! Haven't we been here before?
Eric: Of course we have! And we'd better improve or we're not going
to get out of here.
Baleog: If they'd have more monsters for me to clobber, things would
be going a lot better!
6
Olaf: What happened?
Eric: We failed again.
Baleog: I hate it when that happens.
7
Eric: Is it my imagination, or have we been here before?
Olaf: I'm getting rather attached to this place.
8
Eric: This place looks familiar.
Baleog: Yeah, It's like we've already been here.
Olaf: Repetition can make your memory a little funny.
9
Eric: We've come back here so many times! This is a disgrace.
Baleog: But we've clobbered lots of monsters, haven't we?
Olaf: Give us a break, Eric. This is a tough level!
10
Eric: I have a strange feeling of Deja Vu.
Olaf: Deja Vu?
Eric: That I've been here before in a previous life.
Baleog: Actually, we've been here lots of times.
Eric: That would explain it.
11
Baleog: No, not again!
Do you realize how long we have been stuck here?
Olaf: Maybe we should buy a home here.
Eric: This doesn't look like a place where I'd want to live!
Olaf: It was only a suggestion.
12
Olaf: I'm tired, Eric. We've been through this level too many times!
Wake me when we finish it.
Baleog: Good night, Olaf. Have nice dreams of gliding over monsters.
Eric: Good night, Olaf...
Wait a minute, we need you to finish the level!
Olaf: Oh, sorry.
13
Olaf: We've been here before.
Eric: Yes, we have. Will you two please be careful?
Baleog: You've made mistakes too, Eric.
Eric: Oh, that was low.
14 (Always on the 15th Retry)
Thor: This is the voice of Thor, Viking Lord of Thunder.
I am real angry with you guys.
Eric: How have we displeased you, Oh mighty voice of Thor?
Olaf: Why can't I see you?
Thor: Would you want to be seen with Vikings that have failed 15
times to get through a level?
Eric: But...
Thor: In my day, Vikings were faced with much tougher levels, and
we always got past them on the first try!
Olaf: Always?
Thor: Do you doubt Thor? Now go out there and find the exit!!!
15 (Always on the 50th Retry)
Olaf: Congratulations! You've just won the 'Too much time on your hands'

Baleog: And you have waaay too much time on you hands.
You've given up 50 times just to see if there are any more messages!
Eric: Well, I'll save you a little time...
This is the last message you'll get.
Baleog: Yeah, so you might as well just play the game.
Eric: It's actually pretty fun, you know.

Eric: Now, didn't I just say that there were no more messages?

THE LOST VIKINGS TRANSCRIPTS
by Rick Furr April 12, 1994
with additions and corrections by Col. G. L. Sicherman, December 31, 1994
THE VIKINGS' STORY
It was a day that the members of the Viking village looked forward to every
year. On this day everyone in the village celebrated the fall harvest with
contests of bravery and skill throughout the afternoon and a grand feast at
dusk.
The most anticipated event of the day was the hunt. In this competition,
the best huntsmen from the village venture into the wilderness, to see who
could catch the most game for the evening's feast. By noon, all the
participants had arrived at the starting point of the hunt, except for three
Vikings who lived just outside the village. Since their tardiness was
nothing new, the decision was made to start the hunt. without them. Upon
hearing the horn, indicating the beginning of the competition, Olaf the
Stout and his two buddies, Baleog the Fierce and Eric the Swift, simply
rushed into the forest to prevent the others from having too great of a head
start.
Meanwhile, the infamous intergalactic zookeeper, Tomator, piloted his space
craft to Earth through a fiery vortex that appeared high above the fjords of
the Baltic Sea. Tomator was sure that he could find adequate specimens for
his zoo on this tiny planet. He commanded his ship to begin its descent as
he made preparations to go on a hunt of his own.
As Olaf the Stout, Baleog the Fierce and Eric the Swift walked home from the
feast they were still bragging over their triumphs in the hunt. When each
brother had finished claiming that he was a better hunter than the other
two, they retired to their cottages, oblivious to the strange flying object
that had appeared directly over their village.
Tomator brought his craft closer to the ground, trying to locate the three
specimens that he had previously chosen. He had noticed them earlier, when
they appeared to be the victors of some primitive ritual of skill and
strength. After a few minutes, Tomator's computer located the selected
humans and began to teleport his unsuspecting captives aboard his ship.
Eric, the swiftest of the Vikings, was awakened suddenly to find himself
suspended above his bed and being pulled upward. Despite his efforts to
resist, he was drawn through the top of his hut and into the night sky.
Next, Olaf the Stout and Baleog the Fierce experienced the same fate as they
too were pulled from their beds, toward the strange metallic object in the sky.
With the acquisition complete, Tomator took his craft out of orbit. Due to
a short circuit during the teleportation process, the Vikings materialized
in the corridors of Tomator's ship rather than in his specimen room. Now
the Vikings only hope to return home in the use of their skills and the
strange vortices that can carry them through time and space.
Your story begins with three Lost Vikings aboard Tomator's ship, and only
with your help and expertise can they find their way back home.
You must guide the Lost Vikings through the complex maze of Tomator's space
craft. Use Eric's speed, Baleog's weaponry and Olaf's defensive abilities
to help return these poor lost souls to their village.

AILMENTS: Athlete's Foot, Frequent Headaches
FAVORITE PETS: Cheetahs, Jaguars, Falcons
DESIRED BIRTHDAY
PRESENT: A Football Helmet
FAVORITE HOLIDAY: Groundhog Day
FAVORITE QUOTE: "It is better to run and jump away from enemies than it is
to let them smash you into little pieces."
COMMENTS: The tactical genius and self-proclaimed leader of the party.
Eric is the swiftest and most agile of the Vikings which makes
him an indispensable part of any expedition. His wit and
resourcefulness are often key to resolving difficult situations.
However, he has a short attention span and gets easily
agitated by sitting in the same place too long. In fact, his
patience is often times too thin to tolerate his two brothers.
Despite these shortcomings, he proves to be a valuable
companion on any adventure.
STRENGTHS: Eric is the swiftest Viking. He can outrun any enemy and leap
high into the air. He also has a head of stone which he can use to bash
open walls.
WEAKNESSES: Erik has no defensive capabilities, which leaves him very
vulnerable if he goes out scouting by himself. His speed can also be a
liability at times if you are not careful.
NAME: Baleog the Fierce
AGE: 25
HEIGHT: 6' 0"
WEIGHT: 220 lbs.
SPECIALTY: Combat, Chopping, Slicing, and Dicing.
EQUIPMENT: Bow, Arrows, Swords, Attitude

EXCLAMATION: Yo!

VACATION SPOT: Iceland
FAVORITE VOWEL: A
FAVORITE HOLIDAY: Labor Day
FAVORITE BAND: Aerosmith
FAVORITE QUOTE: "Enter the mill and you will come out floury and baked" -
unknown Danish Baker
PRIZED
POSSESSIONS: Sword shaped letter opener, Long Underwear
COMMENTS: Baleog's enormous ego is tolerable only in light of
the martial skill he provides to the expedition.
When he's not accusing his brothers of being lazy
or weak, Baleog can often be found sharpening his
sword and contemplating his strategy for world
conquest. Nonetheless, despite his sometimes less than
pleasant company, Baleog is a fierce foe to any that
stand in a party's way.
STRENGTHS: Baleog can attack with his sword and shoot arrows.
He can also use arrows to activate switches that
are a long distance away.
WEAKNESSES: He has not yet mastered the art of defense. Therefore
he usually hides behind Olaf's shield during battles
with formidable foes.
NAME: Olaf the Stout
AGE: 23
HEIGHT: 6' 2"
WEIGHT: 320 lbs.
SPECIALTY: Defense, Aeronautics, Comedic Relief
EQUIPMENT: Shield, Belly, A Silly Laugh
OCCUPATION: Mercenary, Winchell's Poster Boy
HOBBIES: Para-Sailing, Bungee Jumping
FAVORITE FOOD: Meatloaf, Sprinkled Doughnuts
ULTIMATE FANTASY: To be a Sumo wrestler
FAVORITE
INSTRUMENT: Tuba
FAVORITE MOVIES: Fat Man and Little Boy, Little Big Man, Breakfast

Lunch Wagon, Dinner at Eight, Guess Who's Coming to
Dinner, My Dinner with Andre
FAVORITE RELATIVE: Uncle Beorn
FAVORITE HOLIDAY: Thanksgiving Day
FAVORITE BOOKS: ABC-123, Green Eggs and Ham
FAVORITE QUOTE: "Life is just a big banana. Be careful not to slip
on the peel and all will turn out fine." - Uncle Beorn
FAMILY: Married with two children
FAVORITE TOY: Yellow Rubber Duck named Elvis
COMMENTS: This jovial Viking, with his hardy constitution and
steadfast resolve, can be counted on in any situation.
His appetite for adventure is rivaled only by his
passion for pastries. Unfortunately, he is often
seized by unprovoked laughing fits, making extended
travel with him somewhat tiresome. His hulking
presence is, however, greatly appreciated in the
heart of battle.
STRENGTHS: He can use his shield to block enemies and their
shots. Can also hold shield above his head and float
long distances, which gives him great maneuverability.
WEAKNESSES: Has to wait for Baleog in combat situations and his
shield can not always protect him and the other Vikings
from certain foes that have jumping capabilities of
their own.
Eric: My name is Eric the Swift. I can run like the wind and leap
tall huts in a single bound. It is time for me, Baleog, and
Olaf to go hunting.
Wife: Have a nice day, honey.
Olaf: I am Olaf the Stout. I can block anything with my shield.
Baleog: I am Baleog the Fierce. I am the toughest Viking in the land.
No one can defeat me.
Eric: Another successful day of hunting. Life is good. I hope I
never have to leave my beloved village.
Wife: My hero!

4
Eric: Not third place again? Failure is so discouraging!
Baleog: Cheer up, Eric. Maybe this time we won't fail.
Maybe we can just settle for some minor setbacks.
Olaf: What a deal.
5
Olaf: Hey! Haven't we been here before?
Eric: Of course we have! And we'd better improve or we're not going
to get out of here.
Baleog: If they'd have more monsters for me to clobber, things would
be going a lot better!
6
Olaf: What happened?
Eric: We failed again.
Baleog: I hate it when that happens.
7
Eric: Is it my imagination, or have we been here before?
Olaf: I'm getting rather attached to this place.
8
Eric: This place looks familiar.
Baleog: Yeah, It's like we've already been here.
Olaf: Repetition can make your memory a little funny.
9
Eric: We've come back here so many times! This is a disgrace.
Baleog: But we've clobbered lots of monsters, haven't we?
Olaf: Give us a break, Eric. This is a tough level!
10
Eric: I have a strange feeling of Deja Vu.
Olaf: Deja Vu?
Eric: That I've been here before in a previous life.
Baleog: Actually, we've been here lots of times.
Eric: That would explain it.
11
Baleog: No, not again!
Do you realize how long we have been stuck here?
Olaf: Maybe we should buy a home here.
Eric: This doesn't look like a place where I'd want to live!
Olaf: It was only a suggestion.
12
Olaf: I'm tired, Eric. We've been through this level too many times!
Wake me when we finish it.
Baleog: Good night, Olaf. Have nice dreams of gliding over monsters.
Eric: Good night, Olaf...
Wait a minute, we need you to finish the level!
Olaf: Oh, sorry.
13
Olaf: We've been here before.
Eric: Yes, we have. Will you two please be careful?
Baleog: You've made mistakes too, Eric.
Eric: Oh, that was low.

Thor: This is the voice of Thor, Viking Lord of Thunder.
I am real angry with you guys.
Eric: How have we displeased you, Oh mighty voice of Thor?
Olaf: Why can't I see you?
Thor: Would you want to be seen with Vikings that have failed 15
times to get through a level?
Eric: But...
Thor: In my day, Vikings were faced with much tougher levels, and
we always got past them on the first try!
Olaf: Always?
Thor: Do you doubt Thor? Now go out there and find the exit!!!
15 (Always on the 50th Retry)
Olaf: Congratulations! You've just won the 'Too much time on your hands'
award.
Baleog: And you have waaay too much time on you hands.
You've given up 50 times just to see if there are any more messages!
Eric: Well, I'll save you a little time...
This is the last message you'll get.
Baleog: Yeah, so you might as well just play the game.
Eric: It's actually pretty fun, you know.
16 (Always on the 51th Retry)
Eric: Now, didn't I just say that there were no more messages?
Olaf: You don't follow directions very well, do you?
Baleog: This time we're serious. Stop giving up, okay?
