The questing beast was in Deities and Demigods.Lol.
I think the only reason I remember that is because I read it in my freshman English class in high school. I remember very little of it besides noting that the Questing Beast bore a striking resemblance to the D&D Catoblepas (and I thought at the time that that's where D&D got it from).
Is it comparable? D&D magic doesn't usually have any risk of failure, Lasik can be catastrophic. Maybe near/far is just human variation and the magic fix would be disspellable?
At that point I can't take your concerns seriously anymore. What does raising the dead have to do with eyesight?Of course, in HP you can't raise the dead, and do many of the other things that are standard in D&D.
To go with what some people told me, maybe they are magical lens... after all he seems to be able to see Harry and Ron under the invisibility cloak.
Of course, we do know they can fix glasses!!

It illustrates the highly non-standard nature of the setting. A world in which raising the dead was generally available would be very different to any typical D&D setting.At that point I can't take your concerns seriously anymore. What does raising the dead have to do with eyesight?
I think he meant the exact opposite.It illustrates the highly non-standard nature of the setting. A world in which raising the dead was generally available would be very different to any typical D&D setting.
Those glasses aren't for fixing eyesight.I think he meant the exact opposite.
You can't raise dead so you can't fix eyesight in HP...
Whatever. This whole discussion makes no sense anyway.Those glasses aren't for fixing eyesight.
Because it looks radSo do we know why their staff is floating?
If that was actually the way you felt, I wouldn't make fun of you for it.
So @ezo, you opened with this:No one has made fun of you. Challenging your claims is not making fun of you.
And now it turns out that you're telling us the reason it doesn't appeal to you is that you can't identify with a wizard who would choose to wear glasses.what is with the glasses? You have "glowing power wizard eyes" but you need glasses? Must be trying to be stylish.

Doesn't appeal to me, either. Not the style, the pose, the lack of context, nothing really. Take the book out of it, and it could be a cleric, sorcerer, or warlock -- not "wizardy" at all IMO.
