Biography
Zephram is known for his love of role-play and pageantry. A dedicated officer he has held every kingdom level position in the CK including champion, but dropped the position in protest of King Matthew LeGrey and PM Kaderian's firing of his wife, Dame Melinda MacLaren, as Princess Regent (when she suggested at court the kingdom boycott Annihilus-sponsored events over their use of illicit drugs during events). He began playing in June of 1988 and served as the Fifth regent during the reign of King Rufus Grimwulf, the 5th Prime Minister and the 11th Monarch. A melee fighter of middling skill (7 Orders of the Warrior), his preferred style when ditching was door shield and flail or glaive. But he really shone in class battles as a wizard. He is one of the deadliest casters I have ever seen, easily the equal of Rendarken, Vlar, or Dreadstone.
My favorite memory of him dates back to the CK’s ill fated invasion of the Wetlands during the reign of Queen Theresa. Some dozen of us including Dreadstone, Drakknar and I faced off against forty plus Wetlanders. We were hard pressed. Even with four times our numbers but they wouldn’t engage. Instead they would pin us up against the walls with pole arms and have their casters call for our deaths. Then Zephram showed up, and suddenly there were a lot less pole arms. I have never been happier to see him. – Randalf Falconbridge
