One the rough streets where he grew up, Ralph (Ross Finbow) was always the target of the neighborhood toughs.

Now the time has come for Ralph to continue his education at the local university, and upon arrival he immediately makes a name for himself by overtaking the fantasy role-playing society by staging an impressively-planned coup. As his status among the college gamer set is established, Ralph embarks on a series of fantastic fantasy adventures with head-banging theology student Hank (Ross Sutherland), neurotic risk management student Davy (Johnny Astin), and beautiful goth girl Marlyn (Danielle Stewart) - who has become so seduced by the fantasy realm that she believes herself to be an elf. Never before has Ralph seen a woman more fit to serve as the queen of his expansive and imaginative kingdom.
