Like a torch burning in the darkest dungeon, he draws other death-casters to Euraxia’s banner like moths to a flame.

This, in turn, has brought a small army of lesser necromancers to Zumog Phoom’s side. For his part, Zumog Phoom takes advantage of the power and prestige afforded him by Rimmen’s unlawful ruler. She values his counsel, keeping the necromancer close and making him an integral part of her strategy and planning sessions. In any event, he has been at Euraxia’s side since her conquest of Rimmen, adding his dark magic to her own skills and abilities. Some information paints Zumog Phoom as a ranking member of the Order of the Black Worm and a former student of Mannimarco, but I cannot corroborate these reports. He presents a proud and powerful visage, totally loyal to the Usurper Queen yet completely devoted to progressing necromancy in all its forms. I could see the frozen north giving rise to a vile sorcerer such as Zumog Phoom.

I have found no direct evidence for this assertion, but the wilds beyond Orsinium are unforgiving, and life among the Orc strongholds is bleak, harsh, and brutal. The Orc necromancer, a self-proclaimed “lord of the dark arts,” reportedly hails from the northernmost climes of Wrothgar. While it has long been rumored that Euraxia Tharn employed necromancers among her Nibenese mercenaries, I have finally put a name and other details to the dark mage serving as her court wizard. It seems that the Usurper Queen’s inner circle grows larger with every passing day.
