Abdul Alhazred

A mysterious, and dangerous man, Abdul Alhazred was at one time the Vizier of the Land of the Green Isles, and was in charge of the day-to-day running of the kingdom. He came to the islands in the year 1600 D.C. from a far away land, and immediately began impressing King Caliphim and Queen Allaria with his knowledge and persuaded the king and queen, who were in desperate need of an heir to the throne and were already nearing middle age, to let him handle the day-to-day duties of the kingdom while they tried to conceive a child.

Alhazred, however, was largely thought of as suspicious by the islanders, and it was only with the trust of King Caliphim that he was able to retain his position. Within a few years, the king and queen produced a child, a daughter who they named Cassima. A beautiful, intelligent, and fair girl, the Green Islanders loved Cassima as if she was a member of their own family. Alhazred, seeing in Cassima his key to ruling the Green Isles, also took a liking to her.

In the year 1614 D.C., the wizard Mordack came to the Green Isles as a friend of the Vizer Alhazred, and had been introduced to Princess Cassima, and had expressed his wishes to marry her, and when she refused, Mordack kidnaped her and brought her far away, to his island castle, not to be seen for months afterward. This devastated King Caliphim and Queen Allaria, and according to the words of Alhazred, they became ill with hearbreak and died shortly before Cassima returned to the Green Isles after being rescued by King Graham of Daventry.

Some months after her return, a young man named Alexander, the son of King Graham and the prince of the land of Green Isles, came to the Green Isles after been invited to visit by Cassima. Upon his arrival, he was informed by Alhazred of Cassima's parents' deaths and that Cassima was sequestered in mourning for them. Alhazred's story sounded false to Alexander, and he invesitgated. He found, after many dangerous adventures, and a journey to the Land of the Dead (where he ressurected Cassima's parents) that Alhazred had in fact murdered Caliphim and Allaria, and that using his genie, Shamir Shamazel, he stole each of the island's precious artifacts, and then created rumors which blame each island for the thefts. Meanwhile, Alhazred had sent his genie to kill Alexander on many different occaisons (each of which failed) and had sent word to every island labeling Alexander as a foreign assassin. He also made plans to marry Cassima.

Alexander was able to stop the wedding.
