If I recall the cartoon correctly at one point he uses rat tails as a spell component. Here's a close-up of Beorht with his owl familiar:

As I recall, the kids from the D&D cartoon appear in this episode as background characters.
ReplyDeleteJudging from the location of those patches, ol' Beorht has a tendency to drop stuff in his lap while he's workin' at the ol' alchemical lab bench. Yeeouch!
ReplyDeleteHe doesn't look like a wizard to me.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you have to say about that, eh?
I say "Well, what does he look like to you?"
ReplyDeleteHe looks like an insurance salesman or advertising agent *disguising* himself as a wizard.
ReplyDeleteHe totally looks like a wizard! You could show that to a hundred people, and at least 99 would agree that he looks like a wizard.
ReplyDeleteIs this ideological?
Oh '80s Cartoons, you guys love to add Wizards, Robots, and Hobbit-clones regardless of what genre you are doing.
ReplyDeleteHe looks a little like Saruman or Gandalf from the animated Lord of the Rings.
ReplyDeleteTransformers doesn't skip on the space wizards. This one has tentacles.
