about

Tamerlane was the founder of the Timurid Empire, and was notorious for creating pyramids of human skulls. Unsurprisingly, he is the bad guy in the game. He is the ultimate representation of human Will, and you need luck or the protection of Grand Master La Valette or Captain Cook to get past him. He is lost in the maze of corridors that make up the Engine Room and the Chamber, if you bump into him you're in trouble. Roll the dice three times.

lyrics

What's my name
I deal in blood
My cards are marked
And I hate to lose
I need it now 
I love the pain
By any means
Tamerlane
Is coming your way

he's coming your way
he's coming your way

to poke you with my scimitar

he's coming your way

I am the man from Samarkand
A solo artist I don't need no band
I’m looking for you

he's coming your way
he's coming your way

to poke you with my scimitar

he's coming your way

I am your vessel of power 
I am your will
You will obey

I'm lost in the engine
Strung out in the maze
Looking for victims
When I'm crazed
You know I'd pile up the skulls
If he'd let me play
Let me play, I've got testosterone and manly ways
You know I'd burn down the world
