I am currently running a campaign situated in and around Thay, and I wonder if any of you guys out there could help me on some stats and background on the Zulkirs of Thay. I already have a lot on Szass Tam, the infamous necromancer. The book "Lords of darkness" provides a good deal of information, but that is all i have.

The stats change depending on how long they live.

"Thayan policy is decided in council by the zulkirs, who are wizards representing schools of magical specialization. Each zulkir is elected by Red Wizards prominent in that magical school, and then serves for as long as she can hold office -- alive or in undeath. Although every zulkir has rivals seeking to destroy her, zulkirs tend to be shrewd, ruthless, and good administrators (or they don't last long). " |

| Thank you for your replies. The Spellbound boxet you spoke of Wooly sounds like a nice source of information. I will look into that. |

| Hmm... I just looked at FRCS and LoD, and I just realized that neither sourcebooks gave the levels of the zulkirs except for Szass Tam. |

Indeed. A fair number of Zulkirs and several Tharchion and Tharchionesses received stat'd details.

Of course, if you cannot find the boxed set, then I, or any of the other scribes here I am sure, would be willing to provide you with a summary of the Zulkir stats.

In fact, I will provide the basic statistical details now -
Note that these stats are relative to the time of publication of the Spellbound boxed set. And of course, this means that they are in 2e format.
* Zulkir Szass Tam - Lich Male Necromancer 29 (of Necromancy)
* Zulkir Lauzoril - Human Male Enchanter 22 (of Enchantment and Charm)
* Zulkir Lallara Mediocros - Human Female Abjurer 21 (of Abjuration)
* Zulkir Mythreall'aa - Human Female Illusionist 20 (of Illusion)
* Zulkir Nevron - Human Male Conjurer 24 (of Conjuration and Summoning)
* Zulkir Druxus Rhym - Human Male Transmuter 24 (of Transmutation)
* Zulkir/Tharchion Aznar Thrul - Human Male Invoker 23 (of Invocation)
* Zulkir Yaphyll - Human Female Diviner 19 (of Divination)
