Ruby Prince Khemet III, the Forthbringer, is the current ruler of the nation of Osirion. The prince is not quite middle aged, with brown eyes in a still-boyish face; some speculate his youthful appearance is the consequence of drinking the sun orchid elixir. [1] He cultivates the weak, malleable image his apparent youth inspires.
Nazmi, a celestial gynosphinx servant of Abadar, advises the prince, who allows the Council of Sun and Sky to manage most of the mundane government functions while he manages the byzantine elemental and planar pacts that underlie Osirion's independence.[1]
The prince bears two unusual wondrous items as the rightful heir of the Dynasty of the Forthbringers: the Crook of the Ancient Serpent as his rod of office, and the Ruby circlet beneath his pharaonic headpiece, which allows him to communicate with his invisible fire elemental advisor Janhelia.[1] Visitors to court often pay to have an endure elements spell cast upon them, in case they find themselves in Janhelia's vicinity.[2]
A powerful summoner, the Ruby Prince has negotiated agreements with genies of air, water, and fire, as well as the angelic and fiendish servants of several gods.[3]
Osirion’s army has been growing steadily during his reign, but the reason for this military build-up is not known.
Some observers fear that Khemet III is too embroiled in the politics of the elementals of the desert, and mutter darkly that such entanglements always end badly for mortals.
He is protected by the fanatically loyal Risen Guard, who are also responsible for the safety of his family. At this time, his heirs are his twin younger siblings Ojan and Jasilia.[4]
