The Truth about Sedmon

Sedmon is a transplanted native of our Earth, although most people do not know this. The Maelstrom keeps him alive — as long as the Maelstrom howls, Sedmon cannot age nor die. Sedmon is about six feet tall, about 185 pounds, has light sandy brown hair, and -very- intense blue eyes. He has been alive over 6,000 years and is not about to stop soon. Sedmon started from the bottom and worked his way up very quickly. He is a living example that anyone can rise above his or her station in life. Several modern inventions are credited to Sedmon – and several more can trace their origins to Sedmon if one digs hard enough.

It is said that he has killed Dragons single-handed — if true, it would make him a formidable warrior. In truth, Sedmon owns a +5 Flaming Vorpal Battle Sword, with which he has dispatched many evil doers to their just reward.

He is also a known Void Mage with a huge spell book. All of his spells are known at level 21 or above. His spell books (yes, he has more than one) contain one of the larger collections of Elemental spells known.

Oddly enough, he also has some Clerical training. He has been seen officiating at church ceremonies, especially weddings and last rites for honored military, and there are records of him casting Clerical spells.

Even stranger, he has demonstrated abilities that are generally only taught to Rogues, Assassins, or worse.

He has also been seen in the courtyard practicing martial arts maneuvers.

Sedmon will heal from most injuries virtually instantly. He is very familiar with his subjects, and goes out into the Kingdom quite a bit. He is not afraid of demonstrating any or all of his talents if necessary, but he is not egotistical. Sedmon has very good scientific and mathematical knowledge, and is aware of other things. If it was ever looked into deeply enough, he invented: ketchup, mustard, relish, mayonnaise, Poorman's Sausages (Hot Dogs), Poorman's Patties (Hamburgers), Amastre (Pizza), and many other foods, including the most unusual of all, Ice Cream. Most inventions and mathematical theories are tied to Sedmon. He created the Commoner's Calendar and created the table of elements. The formula for the circumference of a circle is Sedmon's idea, as are many other mathematical computations. Each of Sedmon's past "lives" has lasted about a century each.

About once every thousand years, Sedmon travels to a place he calls his "Fortress of Solitude" to recharge. No one but Sedmon knows where this is. He is, among other things, a known Dragon Slayer, a known Void Mage, a full Priest, and a Monk with high levels of martial arts training. He is almost familiar with just about anything. Sedmon is a Christian who has appropriated the nearby "Temple to the Unknown God" and converted it to the center of Christian religious activity on the planet. Sedmon is directly responsible for Holy Bible manufacture and distribution on Æøæ.
