Weiz



Weiz does not talk to many people concerning his past, but it is rumored that he left his homeland because his albinism made him an outcast, and his manner and bearing suggest that he travelled fairly extensively before finding himself in the City of Dreams. What is known about Weiz is that he is a sorcerer of considerable talent. He has made a substantial living through the creation and sale of enchanted items, many of them made to suit the carnal appetites of Akashat's populace. It is also known that he thinks more highly of slaves than many of his peers. He has been seen holding casual conversations with them, addressing them by name, even asking them if they'd mind being rented. He doesn't appear to be opposed to Akashat's slave trade, but excessive cruelty towards them seems to upset him. Weiz entered Akashat as a citizen, but ended up buying himself a title shortly after his lover Loflynn was nominated to run for the office of Margrave. When Loflynn won and became Margrave, she appointed Weiz her Sharif. Weiz endeavored to do his best as her second-in-command, despite whispers that he only got the post because he was warming Loflynn's bed. Unfortunately, his tenure as the Margrave's right hand got off to a rocky start when a slave revolt broke out. Although he helped contain the damage done, aspersions were cast upon him as well as Loflynn and Senara, then market manager. Things got worse when he was arrested for questioning the slave Aoife about the revolt without the permission of her master, which led to a trial, conviction, and a public flogging. By the next term, a new Margrave had been elected, and Weiz's time as Sharif came to a quiet end. It might seem somewhat surprising then, that when Roscoe become the new Margrave after Luther, Weiz applied for the job of Market Manager. Perhaps even stranger still that he was granted the position. It's still anyone's guess as to whether Weiz's second try as a member of the Margrave's staff will be any less rocky than the first.
