Zulkir

The Zulkirs are the elite Red Wizards of each school of magic in Thay. They are allegedly powerful enough that a single Zulkir could wipe out an entire city single-handedly.

The Zulkir of Necromancy
The only known Zulkir currently is the Zulkir of Necromancy, Szass Tam. Previously, it was Arthindol before his destruction.

The Zulkir of Necromancy is most commonly elected as the Eternal Master of Thay, though it is not always the case.
