Albrecht Albrechtson is a pretender to the Low Throne and the Scone of Stone (two Roundworld parodies: the High Throne of many fantasies, notably those at Cair Paravel in the Narnia series; and the Stone of Scone, the Pictish seat of kings in 12th century Scotland) deep under Überwald.

He is a Deep-Downer and hates the thought of the Overworld for he fears its taint, and the reality that it is dragging Dwarfs away from their traditions.

It is suggested at the end of The Fifth Elephant that much of this hatred stems from the fact that he is actually a she (as humans would say).
