Jamzeen is the Baron of Oakenisle in the Domain of the Sea Barons, having ruled for more than half a century by 585 CY. Though he is evil, he dislikes slavery and disallows it on the island.[1]

Description

Appearance

Jamzeen is 6', quite thin, and has developed a bit of a stoop in his old age. [2] He has gray eyes and still has a full head of white hair. [3]

Personality

Jamzeen is still a notorious rake, and was even more so in his youth and has had several wives throughout his lifetime. He is perfectly content to be second-in-command and let Basmajian be in charge, because it makes his life easier, and he agrees with Basmajian's conservative approach to government.[3]

Abilities

Due to advancing age, Jamzeen is not as physically capable as he once was. He is still as sharp as he ever was, though.

Str 7, Dex 6, Con 6, Int 16, Wis 16[2]

Equipment and possessions

The only magic item Jamzeen commonly carries or uses is a set of chainmail +3.[2]

Relationships

Family

The baron has several children, most of whom have either died (occasionally at the hands of their siblings) or left the island to seek their fortunes.[3] Among them are Jamzeen's triplet sons Jamair, Jaqiran, and Nandain who remain on Oakenisle. They are known for causing trouble, being drunkards and competing with each other.

History

Before the Greyhawk Wars, Jamzeen worked closely with the then-Lord High Admiral, Lord Sencho Foy, whom he had considered a very good friend for nearly five decades, until Foy was taken out by the current Lord High Admiral, Basmajian. Baron Jamzeen has been withdrawn and "drained of some of his will"[3] since the death of High Admiral Foy, though he does not hold the murder against the current Lord High Admiral.
