"Wizard/Warrior/Valkyrie/Elf Is About To Die" is a spoken track from one of the earliest computer RPGs, Gauntlet. Some of the "food" you picked up looked like a giant jug of ale. So, Wizard is about to die, needs multiple beer, makes sense in the coin-op game and the many console games spun off from the coin-op.
Pretty sure a bloke named David Copperfield wrote a song with these lyrics;
He was the wizard of a thousand kings And I chanced to meet him one night wandering He told me tales and he drank my WINE Me and my magic man kind of feeling fine
If you know, you know.

If I had a printer I would print that drawing out big and spend hours properly colouring it in
I don't get it.
ReplyDeleteNot much to it. He's a beggar, but people are more likely give beer to a wizard.
