-Asphodel is a sentient mutated flower, presumably a kind of asphodel given xyr name. They are the Earl of Omonporch; not by appointment or inheritance, but, by xyr own account, because xe "proclaimed it so" and "there was no Earl to tell [xem] otherwise". According to {{favilink|Yurl}}, xe was able to do this due to "some precedent of law established in Abram's time", though xe wasn't the first Consortium member to have this idea.

 Asphodel appears to be generally disliked throughout Qud, particularly by the [[Barathrumites]]. {{favilink|Aloysius}} refers to Asphodel as a "self-important churl"; {{favilink|Mafeo}} refers to xem as "the so-called Earl" and claims he is "loath to recognize nobility to begin with"; {{favilink|Dardi}} says he has "little to say about self-appointed nobility" and believes that the Barathrumites should "simply appease Asphodel and leave xem to xyr fantasies"; and {{favilink|Otho}} refers to xem as a "troublesome merchant" and encourages the player to "dispose" of xem if they are not able to successfully negotiate for the Spindle.
