=• History •=

Hiram was born to Christine and Hiram Plunket (Sr.) in Ticehurst, in the United Kingdom in 1980. His mother is of the Anglican faith, while his father (now deceased) was Jewish. Publishing has long been in the Plunket family, which started when Elior Plunkett founded Plunkett Publishing in 1604. The company has remained with the family in it's traditional spelling, even though the family name has long since dropped the second 't'. Hiram was an early reader and excelled at school. In his late teens he discovered his affinity for magic and was approached by representatives from the various factions of the Secret World, though he turned them all down, preferring to take a masters in literature and history from Oxford, with the hopes of continuing the family business and his own pursuits instead. He currently resides in Ealdwic, London.

=• Occult Work •= Hiram looked to expand the collection of literary obscura already in the family collection. When he inherited the business in 1998, he set off on study-abroad program at Innsmouth Academy, Maine to study their library, and then later a tour of European and American libraries.

The Codex Gigas
Main article(s):Codex Gigas In 2006 Hiram set out to investigate the Codex Gigas, a giant medieval book with an occult history. Through his investigation work he determined that what was on display in the Swedish Royal Museum in Stockholm was actually an elaborate copy from nearly the same period as the original, which still remained unaccounted for. Through an intensive investigation of various monasteries in Eastern Europe, Hiram determined that the original was still interred within Castle Guzman in modern Croatia. While investigating the old castle, Hiram discovered that the spirit of the book's author, Herman the Recluse, guarded the dungeon in which the book was hidden. Using an elaborate combination of powerful runes collected from the area, Hiram was able to free the imprisoned spirit from his eternal bondage. The tortured spirit of Herman the Recluse was too far deranged from his demonic pact, and fought Hiram anyway. Using an old sword found on in the dungeon, Hiram defeated the spirit and discovered the original Codex Gigas, which today remains in the possession of the Plunkett Publishing family vault.
