Centaurzan is encountered in the Wildlands of Lemuria. She has a number of side quests for your wizard to accomplish.
Tarzan (John Clayton II, Viscount Greystoke) is a fictional character, an archetypal feral child raised in the African jungle by the Mangani great apes; he later experiences civilization, only to reject it and return to the wild as a heroic adventurer. The character has been variously depicted as articulate and sophisticated as in the original novels, and as a noble savage with limited language skills such as in the films featuring Johnny Weissmuller.
Created by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Tarzan first appeared in the novel Tarzan of the Apes (magazine publication 1912, book publication 1914), and subsequently in 23 sequels, several books by Burroughs and other authors, and innumerable works in other media, both authorized and unauthorized.
These articles on the Heroes of Lemuria are what got me started on my quest to catalog all of the pop culture references in Wizard101. This is the second of sixteen articles put together to allow younger players (I’m in my 50s and had only a passing familiarity with most of the references) to see the inspirations for characters and creatures within this wonderful game .
Text for this article has been excerpted from the Tarzan wiki article linked above.
