Was Xzar the real creator of the atomic bomb?

    [​IMG] I just ask this as he quotes the famous lines...

    "I am become death, destroyer of worlds"

    This was quoted by the creator of the atomic bomb. Is it true then, that perhaps Xzar passed the knowledge of the atomic bomb to the guy? And the only clue of this was when Xzar told the dude the famous saying! :D :D

    Anyideas or suggestions on this theory? agreed? disagreed? any other sources to prove it otherwise?

    As Baldur's Gate was created after the atomic bomb, I seriously doubt Xzar invented it, as he didn't exist during that time.

    [​IMG] Xzar could've also been the inspiration for the infamous Hannibal Lector... if you click on him enough times he comes up with the line:

    Cracks me up every time...

    It's patently obvious he didn't. He merely stole the idea. When you go to the Hall of wonders you find a priest telling all and sundry that "My friend Oppenheimer's got a cool invention cooked up." He must have told Xzar more than he intended about said invention.
