(c) Copyright 2001 by Gary Hartzell


 1.	INTRODUCTION

In this add-on for Legend of the Red Dragon, you are transported back to 
your childhood.  It's Christmas morning, and you and all of your brothers 
and sisters run downstairs to see what Santa has left in your stockings.

You can choose from one of five colored stockings.  Rewards (from Santa) 
range from a few thousand gold or a few gems to a fairy!

 3. REQUIREMENTS

LORD (Legend of the Red Dragon) 3.5 or higher

 4. ABOUT THE GATEWAY

The Gateway is another IGM (in-game module) for LORD that runs other modules 
written specifically for The Gateway using its scripting language.  The 
Gateway is installed into LORD's 3rdparty.dat file and shows up in the game 
under Other Places.  Once a player has chosen The Gateway from 
the Other Places menu, they are shown an additional menu of IGMs for The 
Gateway that the sysop has installed into that game.

The Gateway is freeware and very easy to install.  You can find the latest 
version from one of the following sites:
