History

Dungeon Party! (flashback)

After Vangelis' decision to retain the Skull of Hazza D'ur so he could use its powers for his own purpose, the Lowly informed the King of the need to destroy the artifact, given its malevolent capabilities. Anticipating such a response, Vangelis proceeded to open the Pit and exiled the Lowly to Rock-Bottom.

The Skull Sorcerer

Discovering why Vangelis' reason for becoming the Skull Sorcerer, Cole, Wu, and Vania tried to stop him. However, their efforts to obtain the Skull of Hazza D'ur were futile, resulting in Vangelis opening the Pit and banishing Cole and Wu to Rock-Bottom. Vania grapped a set of Shintaro wings and jumped into the Pit to rescue the two.

Grief-Bringer

Upon learning that the ninja's intention have the Munce and Geckles make amends, Vangelis and Hazza D'ur opted to use the Pit as a means of transportation to the Dungeons of Shintaro, where they revived Grief-Bringer.
