What are the reoccuring characters in Lone Wolf, and what are their stories?
Please leave out Lone Wolf... I mean, c'mon, I know that one.
No, we got Roark, Vonatar, Cadak, Shamath...

Roark - Spoiled rotten brat turned young lordling. Not a good combination. Quite the unpleasant fellow, actually. Flips out and attempts to kill innocent old men for absolutely nothing. Hey, turns out he also dabbles in the evil necromancy of Cener Druids, and gets owned by his own incantations! Just a fun, fun guy overall.
Vonatar - Former Brotherhood of the Crystal Star magician. Was tempted by the dark side (omg! heh), and sold his bretheren and his country out for powerful dark wizardry. His dastardly betrayal led to the Darklords' invasion of Sommerlund, and the destruction of the Kai. Fled like a [thingy] to Kalte once Lone Wolf returned, thirsty for vengance, armed with teh Sommerswerd. Was summarily captured and sentenced to the Shadow Gate in Toran. Eventually becomes ringleader of the Haagadar criminal colony in the Daziarn, who Lone Wolf finds, and happily slaughters to get the last Lorestone.
Cadak - The undisputed leader of the new-age Cener Druids. Naar's tentacle is in his pocket. His plan for world domination begins with the cultivation of a lethal plague virus in the dungeons of Ruel, which ends abruptly when Lone Wolf dumps a cauldron of acid onto the labratory. Whee! Cadak attempts revenge by luring you to Kaag, where his agents (the remenants of the Darklord armies), kidnap Lone Wolf's friend Banedon as bait. When that plan is thwarted by demigod Grand Master Lone Wolf, Cadak moves south to the Stornlands and begins consulting with the Acolytes of Vashna. His goal is to revive the spirit of Darklord Vashnha and obliterate his enemies, but once again Lone Wolf shows up and finally destroys him in hand-to-hand combat. Cadak's spririt is doomed to an eternity of wandering the void in the Plane of Darkness with his buddies Lord Adamas and Sebb Jarel. His natural life and mission ends here, tragically.
Shamath - Just some big demoness. She delivers the Deathstaff to Cadak at the Maakengorge so that he may use its power to revive Vashna. Apparently, she has a severe, severe weakness to riddle solutions. X marks the spot.
That's all I know off the top of my head from reading the books. Maybe someone with the Magnamund Companion (Which I've never read) can help out.

Sebb Jarel and Lord Adamas aren't Cadak's buddies, that's for sure! Ok, among recurring characters other than Banedon and Rimoah, you can add Gwynian the Sage of Varetta that appears 6-7 times in the whole LW series. There's also Lord Ardan (another Elder Magi) and Captain D'Val, a soldier of the Sommerlund Court that appears in earlier books but has only a real role in book 18. Zakhan Kimah is a recurring character, and Gnaag too, but you have probably already noticed it. Then, you can add Captain Prarg of Lencia, and President Khadarian of Magador, who was previously known as the Slaves Master of Aaknar. There's also Captain Sirmaine of Palmyrion, King Sarnac of Lencia, Queen Evaine of Talestria, the presidents of Palmyrion and Casiorn(forgot their actual titles) Manatine and Cordas, Lord Zahda and Kraagenskul appear in book 20, Demonlord Tagazin, Alyss, Naar, Kekataag and you can even add Bo'sun Nolrim. In the NO series, there's Oriah, Lord Zinair, Sejanoz and Zorkhaan. That's probably all, but if you know other characters, please add them. And if you want to make an short biography for each them, go ahead.
EDIT: Oh, since we are at it, the Chaosmaster and Madim Rendalim appear in both LW and GS series.

Sebb Jarel and Lord Adamas aren't Cadak's buddies, that's for sure! I know, I was just providing some flavorful text. All three of their spirits appear together in book 20, when you're floating through space (or whatever). There's even a picture of it. At least, I think it's those three. It's been quite a while since I last read my wonderfully abridged version.

EDIT: Oh, since we are at it, the Chaosmaster and Radim Rendalim appear in both LW and GS series. really? I never read the Grey Star Series. Actually, I haven't read prisoners of time, either. Like i said, I never owned it until now and now I have no time to read it... sigh... That's what summer and spring break will be for. Of course I know the chaos master anyways. What role does he play in GS?

He's a guy that Grey Star have to meet in order to escape the daziarn, but I can't remember exactly its specific role. Luckily, I know that you don't have to fight him.

Well excluding the Darklords, Banedon and Rimoah, I think the King appears more than once. Gwydion certainly does and, if you count the trapped spirits of the Sommlending in the Plane of Darkness, there are those three too!
NS.

I'm reasonably sure that it was Paido and not Cadak who appears with the other two in the Plane of Darkness. Doesn't Cadak appear in the Plague Twins' realm? (forgotten the names). -GB

GB, you are quite right. It is indeed Paido. Cadak appears in the plane of disease, where he gets one final stab at you.
The darklords all appear in this book two, being chased across the Planes of Darkness by the Toruturer.
(by the way, I thought everyone should know that according to ebay: Joe Dever for sale. aff Check out the deals now! That's right. The famous author of Lone Wolf is for sale now. Please rush to be the first to buy him.)

Don't forget, every single foe slain by Lone Wolf is a recurring character, as they all appear in Book 11!
And Zipp, I'm not really interested in buying Joe Dever, unless I can keep him locked writing gamebooks Misery style. Those Kai Scissors sound pretty interesting, though...

Wasn't it Madin Rendalim? Also, wasn't Baron Tor Medar in both 19 & 20?

Hey BC, quick question. What does Zeeky Boogy Doog! mean anyway? Been wondering for months. . .

Hey BC, quick question. What does Zeeky Boogy Doog! mean anyway? Been wondering for months. . . ;D A silly thing: two years ago, I found a Flash movie that is 30 minutes long on the internet. The humor is very absurd. Halfway in the movie, there's that bomb that appears out of nowhere, says "Zeeky boogy doog!" and then explodes. Starting from that point, for the rest of the movie, either the bomb appears out of nowhere, says the zeeky words and explodes when you are less expecting it, or either a character says accidentally the zeeky words and makes the world to blow up. I was very tired or something, because I really liked it. Reminds me of Homer's "D'oh!": funny to say when you are less expecting it, and it is absurd (I like absurdity). Even Darklord Vashna told me that he used the zeeky words in one of his RPG game! ;D

Hmm, amusing in an odd sort of way. Glad I asked! Thanks.
