Talk:Zot (mythical wizard)

Obsolete?

Is this page obsolete? I can't find any reference to Zot as a person in 0.18. There's the Realm of Zot, Orb of Zot, Zot trap, and that's it. - Edsrzf (talk) 01:04, 27 May 2016 (CEST)

I'd say it's just like Dungeon Crawl, pointing to the origins, a myth without any real reference to a version. BTW it's reminding of nethack's wizard myth. The funny picture is very, very histo (1980s), black-white screen. IMHO we should let it stay as a reminder of the humble beginnings when Dungeon Crawl was born. And no version necessary. -- Bwijn (talk) 11:46, 27 May 2016 (CEST)

Sounds good to me. - Edsrzf (talk) 23:50, 31 May 2016 (CEST)

From what I've gathered, Zot is from a different game, called Wizard's Castle. The screenshot is also from that game. There was never any character of that name in DCSS, but that's where the original author got the name and the whole shtick about Zot being on the lowest level of a dungeon. --JStrange (talk) 04:20, 1 June 2016 (CEST)
