Gloibo has been on the trone for over a thousand years. No-one knows how he has survived so long, or indeed how he looks so young (for a 1000+ year old). Rumour has it that his second wife discovered the secret of eternal life and presented it to him as a wedding gift. He is not known for any great achievements. In fact, when his first wife died during child birth (incidentally the baby also died), King Gloibo became extremely reclusive and refused audience with anyone. It wasn't until many years later that he finally became besotted by the beauty of Maysie. The wedding between Maysie and Gloibo was celebrated throughout Gnomar, although the royals did not leave the confines of the royal chambers. Several months afterwards, King Gloibo appeared to the much surprised crowds and gave a heart-warming speech. Now, King Gloibo is known as a great diplomat and a kind leader of his people. He has no children. Queen Maysie the First. Little is known about the origins of Maysie. It is said that she rode from Teaslewood upon a great bear of black and white almost a thousand years ago. Her beauty was such that had never been seen in a gnome before, but her attire was simple and bland. Some say that she was a druid of the forest, wheras others claim she was actually a spirit of the woods who had come to prolong the doomed heritage of the gnomish royalty. Since she has been Queen, Maysie has proven to be a great asset to the gnomish community. She accompanys the King everywhere and is often seen to whisper in his ear before he makes any major decisions. It was her influence that heralded the building of the Golemworks, which has proven to be a great source of income and fame for the once simple kingdom. Queen Maysie can appear scatty and air-headed, but her eyes seem to show a great wisdom. She speaks of no family, so it is assumed she has none. _________________ ----------------------------------------- Time flys like an arrow.
