Lord Falashti of Arion was born on 26th Skies in Darkness (25th Dark) in 244AC. Falashti became, aside from the King and Queen, the most powerful individual in Arion. Following the treachery of Ifor Tynin, the former Court Wizard of Arion, in 281AC, Lord Falashti seized the moment. He created the position of Lord Chancellor as chief advisor to the monarch as well as creating a place on the Council for the holder of this position.
