Senka Zamonth

Senka Zamonth is the patriarch of the Zamonth family, only son of Brandon Zamonth and Jana Lorcan, husband of Patricia Nefaarut and father to Adom and Nathan Zamonth, as well as adoptive father of Thana Roven. He is the High Red Priest, the spiritual leader of the Smaiu across Saturania. His home is Per-Zamonth in Hamunaptra, Khalem.

Early Life
Senka Zamonth Lorcan was born in 3969 as the only son of Brandon Zamonth and Jana Lorcan before Brandon became infertile. One year later Brandon assumed the role of head of House Zamonth.

He grew up in Per-Zamonth like his ancestors, as a very shy boy. Meanwhile his father became one of the richest people in Saturania when he invested what was left of the long-unused Zamonth's fortune in founding various companies and enterprises. While Brandon and Jana were both members of the Church of Atum, only Brandon was a Smai, and the Khalemian Smai Representative for that matter. Brandon introduced Senka to the congregation so he would succeed him, but Senka was more interested in the spiritual part of the Smaiu. He also was not interested in inheriting Brandon's businesses, but rather become the High Red Priest, the right hand of the Khalemian Smai Representative and the spiritual leader of the Smaiu, in charge of making the supernatural elements of the Smaiu plan work.

Brandon's Imprisonment
When Senka was 17 years old, his father was accused and sentenced for life in jail after some very serious accusations: Money laundering for Shuian mobs, fraud, and charges of sexual assault made by women who worked for him. It left Senka very sad, disappointed and, above everything else, ashamed; he felt like he did not really know his father. Brandon's estates were sold, but Jana and Senka could keep a good part of Brandon's fortune. His parents did not divorce, but Jana completely blamed the Smaiu for corrupting Brandon with their sacrilegious rituals and banned them from Per-Zamonth. It made Jana distance herself from the Netjeri Faith.

While Senka studied in university, he became the new High Red Priest. He reached many contacts of his father in order to make them join the congregation.

Marriage
In 3993 two events happened that changed Senka's life. His uncle and aunt, Lionel and Tatiana Zamonth died along with Tatiana's husband and children in a mysterious airplane crash while they traveled on their private jet. Suddenly, Senka became the new head of the family. He then allowed the Smaiu to meet in Per-Zamonth like they did before, lifting his mother's ban. Then he met Patricia Nefaarut, while she still dated Hector Ankhaf. She was one of the only people in the Court Houses circle that was sympathetic to him, not minding his family's bad reputation, and given they were the only Atumians in their acquaintance group. When she and Hector broke up, Patricia courted Senka and they started a relationship to later marry. Patricia's real reason behind the marriage was to try saving her Taremian family from bankruptcy. Patricia became a Smai.

A year later Adrian Sunn, Lionel's husband, and kids, died from an unknown disease, related to the Bloodcurse.

Family and High Red Priest
In 3995 Senka and Patricia welcomed their first son: Adom Zamonth, whom they were very protective to. Three years later their second son, Nathan, was born, and Chosen by Montu, the Zamonths' patron deity. They celebrated and hoped for the Seven Hathors' prediction of him saving their family to be true. However, they showed favoritism towards Adom.

In 4008 Senka and Patricia adopted Thana Roven, a Setepnetjeret and survivor of a car accident that killed her parents and baby sister. Thana, Adom and Nathan were then trained by Silent Walker, on his orders.

When Nathan turned 18 years old, he became the Zamonth Heir instead of his older brother.

Senka conducts the Rituals of Awakening to bring demons to the World of the Living, helped by his wife and children. He is a very silent and religious man, and almost never leaves his room, only going out for the Smaiu meetings. He is the right hand of Menler Bienekes, the Khalemian Smaiu Representative, who outranks him. He is also the leader of the Red Priests, each in one Smaiu congregation.
