When discussing a question about the cover of an album by Conquest in The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, Alex noted that YouTube user Songofwyrd has written a comment referencing another album:
Cover of a Forgotten Realms Dungeons & Dragons novel from the mid 1990s. That's just the artist's drawing of a Red Wizard of Thay, washed over in blue. The cover of Endless Power is stolen too.
Being curious, I looked up the album cover for that album.
It immediately struck a chord. I'm certain I've seen that picture before. But where?
So what is the original image ripped off by used as inspiration for the cover of Endless Power by Conquest?
