Robilar

Does anyone know where I can find Robilar's stats? Is his stats in Rary the Traitor?

They’re definitely in these sources:

- Rogues Gallery, 1980
- The Dragon #37, May 1980
- Oerth Journal #7, June 1998
- The Return of Robilar, August 2023

I’m pretty sure there’s stats in WGR3 too, since IIRC that’s when Robilar is given the mechanical horse.

The 3.0 version of Robilar was in Epic Level Handbook.

I knew that Gygax had disparaged the accuracy of Rogues Gallery, but was not aware that his article in Dragon that same year contradicted it significantly. Because Gygax stuck those character details into a non Greyhawk's World column, I could very well have gone without ever knowing. Thanks for throwing that nugget out here. Yes, it's probably in the Zavoda Index, but that would include all mentions of Robilar, not mentions of a stat such as his level being 19 versus 15 in Rogues Gallery.

-Keep in mind that his level and stats would have changed over time.

Both of the sources were published in the same calendar year. 1st Ed high level characters didn't make levels that fast.
