Mirzandulac, The White Lord, general of Fraz-urb'luu

[BOZ]

i'm told that he is mentioned in Dragon #333 - if so, what page?

 

[Alzrius]

I'm just not seeing him, despite the mentions over on places like Canonfire. I could just not be reading closely enough, but I don't think he's mentioned.

 

[BOZ]

i could have sworn that i did see him somewhere though... i looked and looked through the Frazzy article and saw nothing.

To the best of my knowledge, I created the demon in my abyssal geneaology article @ http://www.canonfire.com/cfhtml/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=203:

Abraxus and Berengar's torrid affair produced four offspring. Against Abraxus' wishes, and in secret, Berengar bore Trucran, Mirzandulac, Bileyan, and Sepalir. Abraxus killed her upon her birth of a fifth demon, and killed it too, although he never learnt that he had fathered the previous four childer.

Mirzandulac was known as The White Lord, as he was an albino---tall and stick-thin, not unlike a mantis in appearance. He was well-versed in magic and combat, having served as chief general across multiple campaigns for Fraz'Urb-luu, and later Demogorgon after Fraz's disappearance. When Demogorgon disappeared as well, Mirzandulac began to search for him without success. He was later claimed by the Cabrir.

While inspired by Vuron from Gygax's Gord novels, IMC Mirzandulac was a different being (obviously, since he was slain and Vuron's got to be around long enough to appear in Gygax's novels ).

strange! rip van wormer had me thinking that he was in issue #333. good thing i didn't add him to my Demonic Lore thread.

 

[grodog]

LOL. I'm not worried about folks using my material in their home games (that's why I've shared it ), but I would be concerned about a publisher using it without permission, of course.

And he could be in 333, too: my issue hasn't arrived yet, so I can't say one way or the other.

 

[BOZ]

so wait, did you create him or not? if you did, he shouldn't be appearing in print without your knowledge!

and you still don't have #333? that was 4 months ago!

I did, unless I subconsciously subsumed the name from some mythological source. Given that google only finds my entries, I think it's safe to say that I did in fact create the name.

Ooops, I had Zuggtmoy on the brain since that was in your other thread. I did receive the Fraz issue, but I hadn't read the article in full; I guess I'll have to do so now, but it'll have to wait until my next trip back home (since I just took my recent issues back there on my last trip).

you might want to get out a magnifying glass, because i did not see his name there. i only thought i had. maybe you have some special sort of vision powers that i lack though, so feel free!

I'll ask RVW---perhaps he saw the name in another Demonomicon article.
