What is the premise?

It can be a bit complicated because monsters can use the same moves as you.
Darkness on Mystara adding thieves and magic users to the party, as well as different outfits, meaning your friends can choose the same character as you (two clerics? why not!). The sequel adds special moves and you can stock up on items between levels in different shops. In both games, there are several choice-based paths you can take, giving you different routes and enemies.
