Plot summaries

Neopets: The Darkest Faerie

Main Article: Neopets: The Darkest Faerie

A thousand years before the events of the game, when The Darkest Faerie was first defeated, Kastraliss was driven out of Altador and took up home in the swamps south of Meridell. He is keeping the citizens of Bogshot ill, and Tor and Roberta encounter him when searching for the three ingredients for the cure.

He is fought from a circle of stone platforms in the swamp. He can attack from inside or outside the circle, and can blow toxic green gas or lunge at the player's character. If Tormund blocks his lunge at the last minute, Kastraliss will fall stunned to the ground and is vulnerable to a jump attack. Kastraliss can also hypnotise the player, paralysing them and preventing them from evading his next lunge.

As Kastraliss takes damage, he'll start destroying some of the stone platforms. When he is defeated, the purple clouds in the sky retreat, and Tormund and Roberta realise that if they can defeat other monsters, they can free the rest of the lands from the clouds. The player can then take the final ingredient, the black bogberry, from the centre of the stone ring, and return to the apothecary in Bogshot.

Kastraliss appears from the smoke.

Main Article: Defenders of Neopia

Kastraliss is the fourteenth challenger in series one of Defenders of Neopia. A Pink Uni and Brown Quiggle were travelling together, but misread their map and found themselves in a swamp. The Quiggle found an ornament of a coiled serpent on the ground, picked it up and rubbed some of the dirt off of it: suddenly, they were surrounded by green and purple smoke and Kastraliss materialised.
