While the "bad guys" in my novels get their due, they don't always get the publicity. So, "B" is for Bashim from the world of the Windmaster Novels. What to say about him?
In appearances, he is an imposing figure, slender with dark hair in tight ringlets. He comes from the House of Pirri, one of the world's major trading houses. His magic is strong, however, he refuses to adhere to the tenets of the Way to the point that the Council of Mages was going to bind his powers. Something Bashim will not tolerate.
Even when he assumed the mantle of the Oracle of Givneh, Bashim was not satisfied with stealing the will of the followers. He wanted more--he wanted Ellspeth. As she was the only person with emergent powers, he wanted her for his apprentice. And was ready to use magic to achieve it, with or without her agreement.
"Come to me, little wizardling. Join me or die."
A sidenote about the bad guys (or gals) getting their proper recognition? I don't know what it says about me, but the letter "B" in the 2019 April A-2 challenge also covered a villain, the Lady Broch.
