The balls he is juggling are eyeballs, which he can enlarge and utilize in his attacks. | ||

When the Hackrobat threatened the town, the white wolves fought back and sealed him in a coffin within the Grotta del Sigillo, the mountain of God. However, it came with a heavy price as many of the wolves were slain. For a time, there was peace. | ||

The party arrives at the Grotta with the Woodcutter in tow and climbs to the very top and enters the chamber where the monster was sealed long ago, finding it to be a place filled with evil like no other. | The party arrives at the Grotta with the Woodcutter in tow and climbs to the very top and enters the chamber where the monster was sealed long ago, finding it to be a place filled with evil like no other. In the chamber, the party encounters a wounded wolf and the [[Ruff|young boy]] who was chained up in L'Arca, along with an enormous stone coffin, which they open. The boy lets out a warning to the party and they are confronted by Hackrobat, who mocks the party for being in league with the wolves. Now that he has been unsealed, he plans to wipe out every single white wolf remaining as revenge for what happened to him.[[Image:DQVII Hackrobat Curse.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Hackrobat using the last of his strength to curse the wolf boy.]]His plan was thwarted by the she-wolf found in the chamber, who is protecting the last remaining member of the wolves, who turns out to be the boy himself. The boy flies into a rage to attack Hackrobat and the party joins in to defeat the monster. After being defeated, the Hackrobat threatens to turn them all into animals so they won't be able to fight back anymore. Once again, the boy leaps up and bites the monster and paralyzes him. Hackrobat then realizes that the last white wolf he was looking for was looking at him right in the face. With his last remaining strength, the monster unleashes a spell on the boy, cursing him to remain in human form forever. The party reseals the dumpy demon in the coffin again, undoing the spell in L'Arca. | ||
