Well, I don't think I've seen a sorcerer/perfumer before. That's kind of a neat twist on the "loot a dead wizard's mansion" subgenre. I also loved the Jack Vance references.
Hi, thanks a lot. Really happy that you have an eye for this kind of references)) I opened Dying Earth for myself not so long ago, and the idea of that trap just instantly came to my mind when I was thinking "What would a wizard do?"
