Dude wasn't dropping any jokes or being sarcastic or ironic or needlessly flip or distracted - he was downright combative! At the time I thought he just called him "Aumar" though and that the seal was because he was a descendant.Also an Ed Greenwood type could definitely be Simon's great-great-grandfather, I'm not sure why you're suggesting he couldn't? One of Justice Smith's parents is white, the other black. But we don't know what this FR's Elminster looks like (and he may well have had multiple forms anyway - didn't Elminister spend some time as female even?), and one suspects Simon's Elminster is probably subconsciously modelled on his father given his self-worth issues (just going on typical male psychology here of course), though equally it could be from a painting he's seen or something.Interestingly they specifically called him out as not-immortal in the movie, but rather slow-aging because the undead assassin guy was like "Yo Xenk you look older than when I last saw you!". The description in the DDB bit for him also calls him out as slow-aging.</blockquote>
