  1. Gazetteer II p. 22
  2. Feast of Goblyns p. 13 gives the derivation of the date. Dr. D. has spent 180 years as a vampire at the time of Feast of Goblyns (736 BC according to Domains of Dread p. 17). Bleak House: Heroes, Monsters, and Settings p. 9-10 details how it happened. The date of his transition into undeath is highly questionable as it predates Gundarak's 593 BC date of formation as a domain. If the date is accurate, then this event is likely false history. Alternatively, Heinfroth may have undergone thee transformation on the Prime Material Plane or elsewhere prior to the formation of Gundarak.
