Talk:Castle Amber (Dungeons & Dragons)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I moved Castle Amber to it's own page, and also updated the entry, based on information from the module itself, and not from supposition that others are trying to attribute to the module's designer (Tom Moldvay).--Azathar 05:34, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Other Literary Allusions
I'll give you the Poe reference (though players' opinions don't necessarily make something true, I was hoping for some sort of citation from the author of the module, or perhaps Gygax even), but the Amber series, I don't see, and you own link showed that ppl also don't agree with it. Just because it's called Castle Amber doesn't necessary mean that its vbased on Zelazny's Amber series. I'm removing the Zelazny reference.--Azathar 04:39, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
- OK. I'll look for stronger references before re-adding it. I may go to the text of the module (yay, primary sources) again if there is anything obvious "enough". We won't find Gygax or the module author claiming to have borrowed from Zelazny, since his works were still under copyright at the time :-) Nandesuka 04:54, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
