Powers/Abilities: Glazgon is large, perhaps 9' tall, and likely at least possesses enhanced human strength. He is a skilled marksman and tactician, and is governed by a sense of mercenary honor. He leads the Iforani, a powerful interstellar mercenary unit of uncertain size.
History: Very little of Glazgon's past is known. He formed the Iforani, a mercenary unit of some renown on the planet Holmrig, which is the cultural hotspot of the Crynbur Pelago (star system?),
(Starlord#1, 2) - Glazgon allied his Iforani with Harith Damyish under threat of blackmail. Damyish planned to use the army, assisted by his own telepathic power, to take over Carina Prime, home of the Probiti. Glazgon made a contract with Damyish to capture Starlord and his ship, in return for the documents with which he had blackmailing Glazgon.
(Starlord#3) - Glazgon met with Damyish on the planet Holmrig, but they were interrupted by Ship and Sinjin Quarrel, now Starlord. Damyish had taken Quarrel's parents hostage to prevent Starlord from attacking him. Starlord explained Damyish's true nature and goals to Glazgon, but the mercenary was honor-bound by his contract to capture Starlord anyway. However, Starlord had Ship locate the pod containing Damyish's blackmail data and sent it flying into the room, counting on Damyish's bodyguard, Colonel Castonis's hair trigger reflexes to destroy it. This was the last piece of evidence Damyish had against Glazgon, and thus ended their alliance. Glazgon then had Quarrel's parents released, and had Damyish and Castonis sent to prison.
Comments: Created by Timothy Zahn and Dan Lawlis
CLARIFICATIONS:
not so much.
I thought Glazgon was quite an interesting character, and I hope we've not seen the last of him.
