Geziar is a Human, a Heir of Bhaal, the last Emperor of the Kasmodan Empire from his family and a member of House Deralt, second Imperial House of Kasmoda. He also is the ancestor of many of the Houses that ruled over the Middle-East.

## Biography

Geziar is born in 435, in Anshan as a member of House Deralt that ruled the Kasmodan Empire. He eventually became emperor and discovered his Autility. Growing up raised to rule Kasmoda, he was taught about the Cult of the Eternal Flame, of how he should never think himself a god, and of how his country should respect its different cultures. He also discovered he was able to create fire from thin air, as a Heir of Bhaal, as were most Deralts. Around his late twenties, he started a polyamorous relation with many person, marrying seven people. He waged war against some rebellious factions, and ended up punishing the Hattian Chrysian cities that started a revolt. As he suspected the Chrysian Cities to have funded the revolt, he declared war on them and won many times, conquering as far as Kraton that defeated Geziar's armies not once but twice. After this, as Alexein Iorn, King of Kraton, started to federate the Chrysian Cities into an unifed Kingdom of Chrysos, Geziar lost more and more land until the Second Battle of Ioa where Geziar lost his son and heir, Xerxes. He stopped his conquests after this. He died of the Oneiric Plague in 491, leaving a ruined kingdom with no official heirs to the throne and his many children fighting for the power. If not for Cyrus' political genius, Kasmoda would have been lost.

## Personnality

Geziar is cunning and clever. Although proud of his achievements, he tries not to be too prideful, considering pride to be terrible. He is also mostly serious though sometimes having moments of humour, especially when giving nicknames to people. Loving his son and his partners, he was known to be very emotional with them, and it's not only pragmatism that made him stop his conquest of Chrysos. A firm believer in the Cult of the Eternal Flame, he is zealous, and did not take well to knowing he would have to allow different religions. He isn't remembered well in the Middle-East and many would have preferred him to die in the Second Battle of Ioa.
