The Kai lords are like " psionic rangers with special powers bestowed upon them by their gods". Originally called "Chinaraux", the world consisted of only northern Magnamund. ĭever developed the world of Magnamund from 1975 to 1983 as a setting for his Dungeons & Dragons campaigns. He also used travel books to discover images of "exotic places". In his teenage years Tolkien, Moorcock and Mervyn Peake along with military history and Norse mythology all contributed to the creation of the Kai. ĭever has stated that his earliest inspirations for Lone Wolf were medieval classical texts such as Beowulf, Gawain and the Green Knight and Le Morte d'Arthur. He was the first and possibly only British person to compete in the Advanced Dungeons and Dragons Championship of America, which he won in 1982. Dever was introduced to "science fantasy" by his high school English tutor. He built armies of Airfix Roman soldiers and converted their spears to laser rifles, long before he was introduced to fantasy.
