Rincewind is a fictional character appearing in several of the ''Discworld'' novels by Terry Pratchett. He is a failed student at the Unseen University for wizards in Ankh-Morpork, and is often described by scholars as "the magical equivalent to the number zero". He spends just about all of his time running away from various bands of people who want to kill him for various reasons. The fact that he's still alive and running is explained in that, although he was born with a wizard's spirit, he has the body of a long-distance sprinter. Rincewind is also reputed for being able to solve minor problems by turning them into major disasters. His unique "skill" is implied to be due to being the chosen one of "The Lady", the anthropomorphic personification of luck (both good and bad). Rincewind was portrayed by David Jason in the film adaption of ''The Colour of Magic'' and Pratchett said in an interview that he unwittingly took Rincewind's name from "Churm Rincewind", a fictitious person referred to in early "'Beachcomber" columns in the ''Daily Express''.〔(The Annotated Pratchett File v9.0 – The Colour of Magic )〕 ==Appearances== ImageSize = width:300 height:500 PlotArea = left:50 bottom:10 top:10 right:0 DateFormat = yyyy Period = from:1983 till:2015 TimeAxis = orientation:vertical order:reverse ScaleMajor = unit:year increment:1 start:1986 ScaleMinor = unit:year increment:1 start:1986 Colors = id:black value:rgb(0,0,0) id:red value:rgb(0.9,0.00,0.0) # there is no automatic collision detection, # so shift texts up or down manually to avoid overlap Define $dx = 25 # shift text to right side of bar # shift texts up or down when two have same year Define $up = shift:($dx,3) Define $dw = shift:($dx,-8) PlotData= bar:Games anchor:till color:orange width:20 textcolor:blue align:left fontsize:S mark:(line, white) shift:($dx,-4) from:start till:end at:1983 text:"The Colour of Magic" at:1986 text:"The Light Fantastic" at:1987 text:"Mort (cameo)" at:1988 text:"Sourcery" at:1990 text:"Eric" at:1994 text:"Interesting Times" at:1995 text:"Discworld (video game) at:1996 text:"Discworld II: Missing Presumed...!?" at:1998 text:"The Last Continent" at:1999 text:"The Science of Discworld" at:2001 text:"The Last Hero" at:2002 text:"The Science of Discworld II: The Globe" at:2005 text:"The Science of Discworld III: Darwin's Watch" at:2009 text:"Unseen Academicals (minor character)" at:2013 text:"The Science of Discworld IV: Judgement Day~Raising Steam (mentioned in footnotes)" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rincewind」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
