Lord Blackmoor

LORD ALBERICH BLACKMOOR

Lord Alberich Blackmoor is a bald man nearing fifty years of age. Decades of overeating, spirits, and pipe-weed have left him in poor health. He sweats constantly and wheezes and coughs when exerting himself.

Alberich made his fortune the old-fashioned way—he inherited it. His father was a successful wool merchant, who invested his profits wisely and amassed considerable wealth. The courtesy title of Lord came along with the estate, which has been in his family for 5 generations. It carries no formal authority over the nearby village of Zelbors, which is governed by a Sheriff.

Since his father’s death many years ago, Alberich has done little to add to the family fortune. He is a kind and generous man, though he has never had to work an honest day in his life.

Alberich knows that Zoreene disapproves of his excessive spending and it is a point of contention between them, but he is otherwise very devoted to her.

Alberich dotes on his only son, Willet, who is rather spoiled.
