adventure: Encyclopedia II - Bounty hunter - Laws regarding Bounty Hunters in the U.S.

In the United States legal system, the 1872 U.S. Supreme Court case (Taylor v. Taintor) established that the person into whose custody a person accused of a crime is remanded as part of the accused's bail has sweeping rights to recover that person. For this reason, most bounty hunters are in the employ of a bail bondsman: the bounty hunter is paid a portion of the bail the fugitive initially paid, since if the fugitive successfully eludes bail the bond ...

In 1784 Jean-Pierre Blanchard fitted a hand-powered propeller to a balloon, the first recorded ...

adventure: Encyclopedia II - Everyman - The play

Everyman was probably a translation of a 921 line long Flemish play called Elckerlijc written by Peter van Diest first printed in 1495, and later in 1518. However, there is considerable controversy surrounding the relationship between these two plays, some arguing for the priority of the Dutch, and others the English version. Most of the arguments rely on the superiority of one play or another in quality, and thus the assumption goes, it must be the original since it is the better, and the translation the inferior, since ...

adventure: Lord of the Clans: Encyclopedia II - Warcraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans - Cancellation

The game was originally slated for a Q4 1997 release; however it was pushed back until the end of 1998.

Warcraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans had been in development for over a year: nearly all features, puzzles, and areas were in place, the voice acting had been recorded, and much of the animation was complete, yet Bliz ...

adventure: Encyclopedia II - Stormbringer - Description

The blade has an edge capable of cutting through virtually anything, but its most distinctive feature is that it is sentient (if not sapient), with a mind and will of its own, and feeds on souls of those it kills. Elric loathes the sword, but is almost helpless without the strength and vitality it confers him. Stormbringer’s hunger for souls is such that it frequently betrays Elric, turning in his hands and killing friends and lovers, adding to Elric’s guilt and self-loathing even as he ...
