Elric, Chief Magistrate of Kalmod

Elric was Chief Magistrate of the Lordship of Kalmod from 1276 until his death in 1284. As the youngest son of Elgun IV of Zalema and thus a younger brother of Elmark the Scholar, Elric was the the first of royal blood to serve in the position. Following his brother's investigation and subsequent deposition and execution of the previous Chief Magistrate, Durric the Wicked, Elric was appointed to the post. He served until his death from pneumonia eight years later.

Chief Magistracy
While the Chief Magistracy was a civilian office, Elmark desired to have someone in which he could place his utmost trust serve in that position. This was not an unpopular decision as the public was well aware of the problems that Durric's tenure had caused. Elric's time in office was marked by increased cooperation of the Chief Magistrate and the monarch; this was streamlined by the brothers' relationship. During Elric's tenure, many practitioners of occult magic were found and rooted out.
