old rpg

I’m trying to figure out the name of an old rpg I played back in summer of 1993 at a cousin’s house. I don’t remember much about it, except that at first your master is killed by some kind of “hunter” or something like that. After that you go west and find a “lead catalyst” that’s shaped like an ankh, and a spell book. You’re afraid of the coming of the “lord of shadows” of prophecy (or something like that) and by the end of the game you find out that you are the lord of shadows after all. I think the game cover had a man wearing a leopardskin cloak or something. I thought it was a pretty sweet game, but I can’t find it anywhere online. Any thoughts?

Was your master killed by a whirlwind of some sort?

I don’t think so. I think someone just came up and threw a dagger at him. It’s been a long freakin’ time though. I could be wrong.
