History
Date of Birth: May 19th, 1958
Home: York, England, United Kingdom
Family: Nigel and Harriet Chambers (parents), Sarah (older sister)
The Discovery: External Supernatural Trigger (stumbled across a genuine spellbook in occult shop while nerdy teen; spellbook had an arcane notification trigger that drew his future mentor), 1974
Mentor: Adam Oxley
The Test: Trial by Knowledge ("Ox" groomed and prepared him to become the talented arcanist he would become through an arduous and unforgiving mystical education that overlapped and replaced normal schooling, complete with tests that could kill if failed)
Comrades: Brogan Sellers, Ellis Goodman, Damionn Cooke, Zaden Levine
Key Event #1: Awe & Wonder (as part of his extended training, Ox brought King over to mainland Europe to gallivant around the continent, learning and practicing mystical secrets and spells)
Key Event #2: War (Ox formed he and his cabalmates into a potent arcane fighting force to help defend his goals abroad, and together the sorcerers battled the Technocracy in Paris and later back in New York to protect magical sanctuaries and artifacts)
Key Event #3: Awe & Wonder (joined the RennFaire troupe in the Bay Area, content to masquerade as an actor while developing his powers)
Transition: Victory (Ox's interests defended in Europe, the cabal was dispersed across the New World with the Scepters of the King and a scheme to form a mystical juncture that could reshape the world, and King resettled in San Francisco, harnessing magical vitality while Ox remained in Europe)
Paradigm/Style
Overview: Cosmopolitan (an emphasis on Old World magical traditions, especially Celtic folk magic, combines with a mythical kinetic approach embodying the Herculean hero)
Magical Artifacts
Scepter of the Central King
Appearance: An electrum rod engraved with arcane sigils, capped with an opaque crystal of black quartz with carnelian veins
Origin: Gift
Effects: Create an emotional impulse or evoke mental dominance
Activation: The rod must be waved over the target or targets while the command word in Latin is uttered
Significant Others
His reign as the Dionysian Dancer of the North also grants him influence over many Awakened beings, particularly the mages he runs across, in the New York City area.
His Continuum
Weakness
Central Pentacle
His role in the Dionysian Dancers is both his strength and weakness, for the cabal ultimately serves a dark purpose (though not Infernal) of King and his associates' shared mentor, Adam "Ox" Oxley, one of the most powerful and mysterious hedge mages to have ever lived.
Likelihood of Corruption
Low.
He may not be a full mage, but his sorcery is impressive, as is his knowledge of the Hidden World. His long experience taught him better than to meddle with demons.
