Magus Jerret of the Sun (#8728)

The Lore of Magus Jerret of the Sun

Magus Jerret is the consummate red wizard. Patriarch of an influential aristocratic family deeply entrenched in the power hierarchy of Red Wizard Capital, Jerret has been trained since youth to be an elite tier operator in the arts of wizardry diplomacy: schmoozing, negotiating, backstabbing, flattery, intimidation, fast talk, and when all else fails, nuke them with a Level 99 fireball. He is just as skilled with words as he is with magic, he can recite the Black-Scholes model for pricing options contracts by heart, and he never forgets which hand is supposed to hold the fork and which one the knife. His likes include political machinations, kabuki theater, and fine cigars, his dislikes include people who don't know their place, dogs that are overly energetic, and feminism.

There is nothing more important to Jerret than the legacy of his clan, and as such, 99% of his time is devoted towards increasing his family's reach and influence, not only in the capital, but across all the Runiverse. He rules over his kinsmen with an iron fist...none of them really like him very much, but they all respect him (and all secretly hope to be favored in his will when he dies, although that doesn't seem to be any time soon despite his advanced age...his doctor said he has the heart of a man half his age at the last annual check up). And what a family! By this point Jerret has 4 wives (with double the number of ex-wives), 10 children, dozens of grandchildren, and even a few great-grandchildren in the mix. Like any patriarchal tyrant, he plays favorites amongst his brood, and makes no secret of this fact, nor does he attempt to conceal the only criteria for being one of his favorites: excellence in all things magical.

Jerret's latest exploit has been to set his eyes on the governorship of Red Wizard Capital, a project which will no doubt require a multi-year effort that culminates in an electoral campaign unlike any before witnessed in the Forgotten Runes. He has been busy building the right connections, greasing the right pockets, and making public appearances to get his name and face out there in front of the common folk. After all, it is important to gain the approval of the poors in a democratic society. Jerret is a big fan of democracy, so long as those who have votes are amenable to having those votes purchased with gold (which they always are).
