He had a spell in one of the 2e Encyclopedia Magica books (I think) called Tenser's Eye of the Tiger. And Eye of the Bear, too, I think.
Tensor was killed by Rary and Robilar during the latter's great betrayal following the end of the Greyhawk Wars, but recently his last surviving clone was rescued by the Circle of Eight. However his growing dissatisfaction with the group reached a breaking point and the reborn Tensor has since left the group, I believe starting one of his own.
right.. I have his spell book around here somewhere..
:: moves stacks of books around
:: looks under the pile with a copy of the Necronomicon on top with notebook paper sticking out of it, and a pen stuck between the pages.
Oh, NO! I have been burgled. Someone has taken Tenser's spell book from my stacks. Stupid thieves.
Maybe I can google for it nowadays..
Cool.
Two of Tenser's spells, Tenser's Floating Disc and Tenser's Transformation, appear in the 3.5 Edition Player's Handbook. Other spells that he developed, described in such second edition supplements as Greyhawk Adventures, include Tenser's Brawl, Tenser's Deadly Strike, Tenser's Destructive Resonance, Tenser's Eye of the Eagle, Tenser's Eye of the Tiger, Tenser's Flaming Blade, Tenser's Floating Disc, Greater, Tenser's Fortunes of War, Tenser's Giant Strength, Tenser's Hunting Hawk, Tenser's Master of Arms, Tenser's Primal Fury, Tenser's Running Warrior, Tenser's Staff of Smiting, and Tenser's Steady Aim.

It is rumored that the name 'Tenser' is actually the rearranging of E Gary Gygax's first name 'Ernest,' a name also shared by one of his sons, Ernie, who played Tenser in the elder Gygax's campaign.
