Zimrilim was the ruler of Unthalass in Unther in the mid–14th century DR.[2]
Activities[]
Zimrilim was the right hand of the god-king Gilgeam. He planned to hire a great army of Chessentan mercenaries to crush a revolt circa 1357 DR.[2]
Personality[]
Zimrilim was a brilliant man. He was well aware that he was the perfect scapegoat for the current situation and that many Great Lords wanted his position.[2]
History[]
In the Year of Shadows, 1358 DR, Zimrilin was one of the nobles who were in Gilgeam's army when Tiamat attacked Unthalass and thus witnessed the death of his god.[4]
In the Year of Rogue Dragons, 1373 DR Zimrilin led a group of remaining followers of Gilgeam in a plot to resurect their god thanks to the help of a thief named Kehrsyn posing as Massedar, merchant prince of Wing's Reach in Messemprar devoted to Bane, and gaining the help of a group of Zhentarim.[1][5] Zimrilim used the Alabaster Staff to raise the preserved body of Gilgeam in order to try to use the undead god as a puppet to rule Unther.[5][6]
With the help of the Harper agent Demok, Kehrsyn was able to steal back the Alabaster Staff from Zimrilim by exchanging it with a replica made by the Red Wizard Eileph.[7] Kehrsyn later used the Alabaster Staff to destroy the reanimated Gilgeam, with the help of the Tiamatan priestess Tiglath.[8]
Zimrilin and his priests were soon killed by the Church of Tiamat and their allies.[3]
