Called “Todd King” on your planet, Void has served as a contractor for various federal agencies, including DoD, MDA, and NASA. Already on the spectrum, an injury catalyzed Acquired Savant Syndrome (with the most amusing acronym of “ASS”), granting him several interesting new abilities. Now, as a mega savant, he is both a hyperpolymath and hyperpolyglot. He has created over 400 intellectual properties in several dozen disparate realms, including Chaotic Systems, Cosmology, Cryptography, Logistics, and Nanotechnology.
Previously, he mutated from lead guitarist to vocalist, playing in several bands in the southern heavy metal scene, opening for acts as diverse as Lynyrd Skynyrd and Pantera while in Zaemon Blaiz. In league with his allies at Nova Eth Publishing, Inc., he created the SenZar role-playing game, which sold in 14 countries, and has virally influenced certain Void-based themes in both the tabletop and computer genres, and even in the world of comics.
Currently, Void has joined forces with his former NASA peer, Dave Newton, to create the new world of EarthZero, wherein they and others will explore the boundaries of magick, technomagick, hekatek, and Simulation Theory.
Zaemon Blaiz
In 1989, three members of Zaemon Blaiz merged their Baton Rouge musical nucleus with two members of other popular metal bands from New Orleans, creating a new hybrid evolution of Zaemon Blaiz. The enjoyed a bright, meteoric arc of success, opening for major music acts such as: Pantera, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Zebra, Lilian Axe, and EZO.
Fortunately, a recently discovered bootleg videocassette tape recording of their first gig with their new lineup was discovered. Taken at The Quarry in Baton Rouge, LA, in 1989, the bootleg, though of inferior audio recording quality, captures the unique vitality of the band.
