Ubaid was the Grand Vizier to King Lamashizzar in ancient Lahmia. [1a]
Appearance
Slender but strong, he, like many Lahmian nobles, had a prominent jaw-line, a slender neck and high cheekbones. His head was shaved and oiled and he wore golden caps at the end of his fingertips as they did in Cathay. [1a]
History
When Lamashizzar set out to meet Nagash at the siege of Mahrak in -1741 IC, he left his sister-queen Neferata in charge rather than Ubaid. [1a]
He was brought into the cabal that was studying the books of Nagash and the captive Arkhan the Black as his help was needed to keep the work secret. [1b]
In -1958 IC, following her audience with Prince Xia Ha Feng of Cathay, [1c] Ubaid poisoned Neferata with the Venom of the Sphinx declaring that her usurpation of her husbands power was not right or proper. [1d]
