Hâzbír Khâlam Al-Tâlír

Hâzbír Khâlam Al-Tâlír, also known as Hâzbír the Terrible, was the supreme ruler of Hysperia following the death of Sâlikhín and the fall of the Drôhznian Empire. He was originally the governor of the region under the Empire, but declared himself Grand-Shân (king) after Sâlikhín fell. He ruled the Grand-Shân of Hysperia with an iron fist and was eventually overthrown by Hysperian rebels.

After the fall of his provincial capital of Haplia, Hâzbír was captured by the Hysperian freedom fighters. He tried to treat with his captors, offering them riches if they let him go. The Hysperians would not falter however, and Hâzbír was lead out his palace in chains. 
He was then taken to each of the Hysperian Patron-Cities where he was marched through the streets, naked and clapped in irons. The Hysperians wanted to shame and humiliate the man who had caused so much pain and suffering to their people. As Hâzbír was paraded through the cities, people cursed and spat at him. They threw rocks, mud, faeces and all manner of unseemly things at him. Some of these displays descended into violence, as furious citizens charged at their former ruler, wishing to kill him themselves.
After his walk of humiliation, Hâzbír was returned to Haplia to be executed. The leaders of the rebellion had concocted a cruel and ironic method for Hâzbír's execution: he would be cast into a pit of venomous vipers, to die by in excruciating agony from hundreds of deadly bites. The Hysperians, lovers of drama as they are, decided that death by snake would be the most fitting for this worshipper of Anarâh. It is said that thousands gathered to watch their hated tyrant die.
