[QUOTE="Lyxen, post: 8532495, member: 7032025"] It's possible that there is indeed some inspiration there, but Geralt is bulky, Elric is slender, and the potions that he uses are just to counter his albinism, whereas Geralt has a wide variety, a true alchemist. Elric is also a really powerful wizard, Geralt's magic is very specialised. And their behaviour is very different too. Apparently, from interviews, Steven Erikson said that he never read Elric. Hmmm, I have different opinions, just consider that the campaign was not played in high school but in University. Also, it's not from a complete group of players, but mostly Erikson and Esslemont (although Karsa comes from a different player, later). After that, it's sure that the Erikson stories are, for me, far better than the Esslemont ones. I agree that the end is not as incredible as the start, it's hard to finish right, especially with something of that scope. [/QUOTE]
