ROCKMAN
=======

Search for the Holy Grail, is it just a Legend, or a fact lost in the mists of time.

Relive the quest of ROCKMAN, a character of extraordinary mental and physical ability.

Can you take this role and succeed where all others have failed for a thousand years?


At the time of the Knight’s Crusades, the French possessed the Holy Grail. In an attempt to keep it in French hands, they hid it in the 
Caves of Sabhatez, near Toulouse.

At around this time, King Richard I of England (The Lionheart), found Solomon’s Temple in Jerusalem and captured the treasure therein. 
They then moved taking the treasure with them to France and set up their headquarters in the Caves of Sabhatez.

The French King was not too happy with the idea of an English army on French territory, so he sent troops with the Popes blessing to 
recapture the caves.

Also against the crusaders, was the wealthy landowner, Simon de Montford. In the countryside around Toulouse, a bloody battle commenced 
which lasted for many days.

When the fighting had died down, many people lay dead and dying on the battlefield, the treasure and the Holy Grail had disappeared 
without trace. No one knew where it had gone.

Many adventurers have searched the caves for the treasure. Some never to return, but the Holy Grail was never found.

That is how things remained for nearly 1,000 years, with the existence of the Grail becoming no more than a legend.

In 1942, in the belief that it would give him immortality and power beyond measure, Hitler ordered that all of Germany’s best 
archeologists search for and find the Holy Grail.

Thankfully, they were unsuccessful.

Now, a wealthy middle Eastern King sends a message to archeologists the World over, to find someone daring enough to search for the Holy 
Grail. The reward? his only daughter’s hand in marriage and the usual, half of the Kingdom.

Only one person volunteers for the job, and that is you.
