Who was he? What was with his arm? Was it ever revealed in print? Just a question that's been in my head since the very first day over 10 years ago when I bought the 2nd Edition Revised boxed set.

Does anyone know?

According to the Wanderer's Journal included in the original box set, he was an artist-slave of a Tyrian noble. (this is how he learned to read and write)
He escaped when he realized that his popularity was waning.
Aside from that, nobody knows.

Hmm. Thanks for that, Jolt.

I guess no DS novels never involved him?

Not that I can recall, though it has been a few years.

The Sorak DS novels feature him. But they're, umm, not very good ;) and many fans disregard their take on the Wanderer.

I'd assume that his arm was the by-product of wandering to close to the lands surrounding the Pristine Tower.

The Wanderer is kinda oracle-ish. Not including the lizard arm of course;)

Or he was a ssurran that was mutated into mammal form and left with a ssurran arm

Let´s see. Just the other day you said you were an oracle and was promptly set in place (in a cage). Taking the latest quote into consideration, either you claimed to be lame the other day, or you are just lashing out at oracles because you weren´t approved as an oracle - which would be pretty lame. I guess this means you´re lame no matter what. :D

Negative.

Let me break it down for you.

I, being me, am always awesome. That is just the natural state of things - like water being wet and pizza being good.

I never made the claim of being an oracle - I was just asking the question (or making the statement) of who the oracle is now - seeing as how you may be slipping in your old age :P Never did I say that I was an oracle - that would just be silly because I do not have time to sit around and answer peoples questions all day because killing runts is what I do IMAGE(http://www.websmileys.com/sm/evil/teu42.gif)

Actually I have. Course, it was in a Japanese restaurant in Hong Kong, but still - they said it was authentic foods just like they would have had in Japan.

I have eaten pizza on every continent except for Antarctica and South America - and have been to over 30 countries and all over the US (a benefit from being in the Marines mostly) - I love pizza

Granted - some of it is...different...but variety is the spice of life ;)

You're right, variety is the spice of life, but I think someone at Pizza-La switched some of the labels. :P

lol - it was a surprise to have mayo on a pizza, that is for sure!

The mayo I can handle, but things like mentaiko or eggplant slices are even worse than putting pineapple on pizza!

See - I like pineapples of my pizza. In fact, my favorite combo that I always get at home is pepperoni, pineapple, and jalapenos -hummm yum!

And eggplant is basically a flavor and nutiant void plant, and as long as it is done right, I like it.

Do you even get cheese on your pizza, brun01? I know your a vegan - so do you not eat any animal products like cheese and milk?

No, and explaining this sort of thing over the pizza delivery place usually creates all sorts of funny situations...

I have no idea what all this jibber-jabber has to do with the topic at hand, but lets focus people.

We all know I am awesome - but do any of you truely realize the level of greatness that you are currently dealing with? You should all be humbled that I would even spend the time that I do reading your threads, let along replying to them or even making the awesomest stuff ever.

Bow down!
