Level Background/Notes : This level was inspired by
characters/mood of the second
series of Amber novels by
(Also, see Mission Roger Zelazny***.
Info, below....)
Mandor is (or was) a
magician of noble blood,
who's bizarre mansion is
located somewhere in Chaos.
His hobbies include gourmet
cooking enchantments and
"sphere magic". (He uses
various orbs and spheres the
way traditional wizards
would use a wand or staff.)
Although quite refined and
honorable, Mandor's rep-
utation is that of a
dangerously capable
sorceror.
His weird, labyrinthian abode
is said to contain countless
treasures in vast galleries,
constructed in such a way as
to be unfathomable by mortal
minds....
I tried to imagine what one
of Mandor's "dungeons" might
be like. Sorry, Mandor himself
does not put in an
appearance (This time....).
I'm saving him, The Logrus
& Ghostwheel for QUAKE.
(The Logrus is next.... Gotta
build with QUAKE to do those
cool Logrus fx! If you don't
now what I'm talking about,
put down that joystick and
READ the Amber novels!)
Additional Credits to : id for making such nice,
friendly games
Roger Zelazny, who came up
the ONLY modern "fantasy"
rationale that actually
makes sense! (Sorry,
Harlan E.)
