History

History

Zams'I is a rogue goblin warlock, originating from the 6th century BC period in the Dacian capital of Sarnitzegetusa Regia of South-west Transylvania, now part of Slovakia.  

 

Zams'I was part of an dying sect of goblins all of whom survived over the last 30,000 years, but had grown sick from disease and were chased and killed from every human settlement area since before the 6th century. Zams'I's parents, uncle and several other relatives were killed when a Darcian war party found these remnant goblins deep in the caves outside of the Darcian capital.  Only Zams'I was left alive at the tender age of 2.   Taken to the Darcian King, Zams'I was to be forever imprisoned in the king's dungeon.  Rather than kill Zams'I, the king kept him as a 'pet'.  Eventually, the king discovered that Zams'I had a sense of humor, one that the king took to with hearty laughter. Zams'l also learned to secretly become an accomplished thief while in captivity as well.  He stole food and items, compiling a small trove of materials that he'd hidden about in his cell. Eventually, the king so liked Zams'l's humor that he released him at certain events, had him dress up in a clown-like costume and became the court jester for the king's entertainment.  While he was 'jestering', Zams'l also stole more items from those in and about where Zams'l was performing. He became quite an accomplished thief, but more to the fact, he was a true kleptomaniac.

​

Eventually, Zams'l's thefts were discovered. The king was furious, so much so that he wanted to witness Zams'l's beheading himself in the dungeon.  As the excutioner was about to cut off Zams'l's head, a newly incarcerated Celtic Spy, also in the dungeon, was quite adamant in the revelry of killing Zams'l.  The king stopped the executioner and questioned the Celt.  The Celt mentioned that there was a prophecy that a 'rogue goblin' would lead to their Celt leader's death and that all the Celt warriors were scared to death of even seeing a goblin let alone fighting one.  As such, the king staid Zams'l's execution and instead ordered Zams'l to be trained for combat by their best warriors and for all the alchemists to do what they had to do to make Zams'l stronger.  The king told Zams'l that if he helped the king win against the western Celts, he'd let Zams'l live...but still be imprisoned until he was needed once again to fight.  Zams'l agreed, but knew he had to do something to get out of his situation or he'd be a slave for life.

​

By the time Zams'I was a young adult, the Dacian king's outer lands were invaded by said western Celtic warriors.  The king decided to finally sent Zams'l into the field to 'scare' some of the Celts with Zams'I appearance, creating fear and dread amongst the Celtic ranks, all the while allowing Zams'I to steal Celtic weapons, armor, maps and vital information, bringing (most) items back to the Dacian King.  As a result, Zams'l caused the western Celts to fall back to their territory in terror over seeing Zams'l the Goblin. Zams'l also got them incredible intel from spying and stealing vital equipment, including powerful magical relics and items.

 

As a result, the king allowed Zams'I to have his own room in the castle, rather than in the dungeon.  His room was ordained with many trinkets and baubles from the Celts, however, he kept a hidden stash of unique weapons he'd taken from the Celts, specifically alchemy-based ingredients and books.  Zams'I began to learn how to dabble in the dark arts in his spare time, aided by a witch he'd 'allowed to live' in one of his encounters in the forest. She hated the Celts as much as the king, and as such, Zams'l secretly began learning from her the art of dark magic.

​

Over time, a unique situation happened where hundreds of impressively created Celt items the king had Zams'I steal, were sold in the market to fund the king's growing army.  The peasants and craftsmen were amazed at the quality of the Celt materials, and began openly trading with the Celts, against the king's orders. This led to a crackdown on the peasants, and eventually, a revolt by the king's subjects against him.

​

A civil war started.  In the end, the Celts sided with the peasants and overthrew the King and his army.  Zams'I, knowing his new life was forfeit, escaped into the forest and took up residence with the witch, where she taught him to master alchemy and dark arts spells...that is, until Zams'I grew so powerful, he killed the witch, took all her potions and books and made off to the old caves his goblin family were once slaughtered in, where he took up new residence.

​

Over the decades, Zams'I became a bit of a warlock; a masterful practitioner of the dark arts.  His skin became blackened by the dark energies he'd learned to control, and his eyes began to glow an eerie orange glow.  He was now ready to battle man's world and treat them as they treated him; as slaves and pets.

​

The Celts who'd taken over the lands began to relax in their new role of invaders, living in the ex-Dacian castle, much like barbaric warlords.  One night, Zams'I entered the castle through one of its many secret entrances and took out the Celt warriors, one by one, mostly while they slept, drunk on ale.  By morning's light, he made his way to the warlord's chamber and killed him and his entire family.  By noon, Zams'I claimed all of the Dacian land and his to rule and that the land's peasants were his slaves.  To enforce this, he created an army of dark energy creatures that would guard him and control the populace. Zams'I considered himself the "Goblin Lord".

​

After several years of his reign, the populace and remnants of the Dacian army colluded together to take back their lands.  In a coordinated attack, the Dacian army, armed with their own mages and Celt-armored peasants, retook the castle.  The final battle resulted in Zams'I being surrounded by mages, immobilized with Druidic magic in the foyer of the castle.  There, the mages utilized a rare, unused spell that would forever turn Zams'I into stone.  In the end, Zams'I became a statue of stone that would adorn the castle's foyer for centuries to come...that is, until the early 21st century.

​

The Dacian castle eventually became a crumbling ruin, with the statue of Zams'I placed in a museum in Slovakia, where it had remained for the last 50 years. The evil leader of the Masters of Maleficence, Mad Halloween Jack, while searching for arcane artifacts in Praque, sensed the dark magics emanating from the slowly crumbling Zams'I statue.  Mad Halloween Jack then used his dark magics to undo the druidic mages' spell and freed Zams'I for the first time in over 15 centuries.  Nonetheless to say, Zams'I was appreciative to Mad Halloween Jack, but his centuries of imprisonment fomented a new level of hate for humankind. Mad Halloween Jack invited the Goblin Lord to join the Masters of Maleficence, impressing upon him their motto of "We shall rule all".

​

Today, Zams'I has reconnected with his alchemy and dark magics, making himself more powerful than he had ever once been.  His goal is the enslavement of humankind; his secret ambition is to be the ONLY one that rules the humans once they are enslaved, not the Masters of Maleficence, whom, in Zams'I's mind, will be but simple pawns in his conquest of humanity.

​

As it is, Zams'l, now calling himself Goblin Master, is truly the last of his kind. With no female goblin to start his species up again, his anger and rage instead fuel him in his hatred of humanity's position in the world.  If only there was another goblin of his specie alive today...

Equipment

Equipment

    • Provides typical physical and magical protection

  • Amulet of Night

    • 1 ward emits, when activated, a warble-like alarm noise if mental powers are used within 20 yards of bearer/ward location. Once the alarm activates, it can only last for 20 seconds more, requiring a magical incantation to recharge.
