Harry Potterband? A potion of luck?
I realize Harry Potter isn't exactly umm.. revered reading, but seeing as potions and spells are a big part of the story I thought a Harry Potter variant of the game could be fun. There's even a rare potion of luck in Harry Potter: when quaffed, the user's day is unnaturally lucky: everything goes in the user's favor. Such a potion could be super rare in Angband, too, granting the user very good luck for a short period of time: ie. finding very good loot, getting saves at crucial times, etc. Of course having it last the whole level might be too powerful, maybe only as long as !heroism or something.

I think simply because no one makes money out of it. It's a bit like fanfiction, and there is plenty of it around for Harry Potter as well.

Why not just save yourself the legal hassles and call it tome 5?

Given the active publication of Pottermore and other Harry Potter-related gaming content, it is absolutely certain that Rowling will not be permissive of Angband development. If anything more came of the Potterband idea than the current content of this thread, it would be rapidly shut down by a cease-and-desist notice and a follow-up lawsuit if the notice were ignored. |
