Character of the week : Smellyson

Smellyson, the eldest son of Ronald, has for a long time been considered the heir to the Annoited One. A warrior of great skill Smellyson became head of the Emperor Special Bodyguard (ESBG) a.k.a. the Glory Boys. On several occaisions Smellyson showed command skill and courage which satisfied Ronald that his son would be a worthy emperor one day. Ronald appointed him the Minister of Defense.

But then Smellyson fell foul of M-B-H, in probably the worst way possible. Smellyson fell in love with a girl called Pheldira, not knowing that she was M-B-H's sister who had been off-planet for a time. When M-B-H found out he taunted Smellyson, accusing Smellyson of being gay and using his relationship with Pheldira as a proxy way of getting to his true love, M-B-H! The taunting worked and Smellyson tried to kill M-B-H, thus he found himself under arrest!

Smellyson was broken out of gaol by the Oojok Death Squad in a special deal between Ronald and Oojok and then he spent the next year in exile on Cloneworld and then later on Earth. Finally he was captured by M-B-H's forces but the Chosen One was defeated before he had a chance to kill Smellyson. In that time Smellyson and Pheldira split up, the pressures proving too great.

Smellyson was cleared of his crimes and restored to the ESBG command and will be Minister of Defense again with the new governing set-up. His stock has fallen somewhat but he is still a potential future leader for the Dinos. In recent weeks he has got back together with Pheldira and they have announced their engagement.
