Motto: "Who better to be Mayor than Zap Bang Damn?"

Zap Bang Damn, alternatively known as 'ZBD,' 'The Zapster,' 'The Zapmeister,' and 'The Z to the B to the D' (among others) is a hipster doofus. At some point in his youth, he did a bit too much partying and used a bit too much drugs and wound up as a spacey dude. In some drug-induced haze, he decided to change his name, but while at the government center to do so, he zoned out on whatever drug he was taking at the time and started acting out some science-fiction dream he had in his mind, going, "ZAP! BANG!" before stubbing his toe against a plinth and shouting, "DAMN!" The clerk who was assisting him, bored and not really paying attention, dutifully made the changes. When he sobered up, the newly christened Zap Bang Damn decided he liked the name and went with it.

Shortly before his emigration to the City of Kupopolis in 40 WR, the Zapster came into a very tidy sum of money. Reportedly, some distant relative died and left ZBD a large inheritance. The Zapmeister purchased a swank and luxurious flat in the Elven Quarter and uses his fortune to open up Branigan's (supposedly the name of his distant relative). Branigan's is a nightclub, offering entertainment and mood enhancement to any and all who come through its doors. This makes him an extremely popular businessman among the nightlife crowd.

With the Mayoral office open to the public, and the soon-to-be-retired 'Top Cop Dude' and 'Supreme Justice Dude' both running for office, the Zapster decided that -- for the benefit of the people -- he'd run for office too. Mostly he's just running because it seemed like a good idea at the time, and because he thinks he should just keep things the way they are -- let things happen as they happen, man.
