Tardis

Avram was a travelling singer in 2700 BC. He discovered the entrance to Utnapishtim's city-ship in the mountains of Mashu and learned the story of Utnapishtim and Ishtar, which he interpreted as a war between the gods which ended in a devastating great flood.

Avram later visited Kish, where he met Ace and Gilgamesh and told them of Ishtar's presence in the city-state. After they had rescued the Seventh Doctor, he accompanied them to Uruk, where he told them what he knew of the goddess and agreed to help defeat her. Avram guided Ace and Gilgamesh to the home of Utnapishtim, who provided the computer virus which defeated Ishtar. He became Uruk's court musician, writing the adventure as the Epic of Gilgamesh. He eventually married En-Gula. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Genesys [+]John Peel, Virgin New Adventures (Virgin Books, 1991).)
