Ptaclusp is an architect and Pyramid builder, father and owner of the Ptaclusp family business, Ptaclusp Associates, Necropolitan Builders to the Dynasties. They operate in the valley of Djelibeybi and glory in their status as architects to the rich, famous and dead. When he started out he inherited the family business from his father with Mrs Ptaclusp doing the books, he later had two sons whom he paid to be educated before they joined the family business.
Prior to the reign of Ptraci, the family's main projects were pyramids. They were not often paid for these immensely expensive edifices, but continued to build them as a matter of pride, tradition, reputation and self-preservation, though much of the actual money came from much smaller monuments.
He had the bright idea (during the building of Ptaclusp's Folly) of using the many time loops onsite to increase the workforce and finish on contract. Unfortunately this resulted in his having to pay forty thousand workers while actually employing only two thousand workers.
Since pyramids have fallen out of favour in recent years, the family seem to be pursuing a bright new future in 'engineering' and have been contracted by the Queen to build many bridges over the Djel.
The family consists of Ptaclusp the father and his two sons Ptaclusp IIa (an accountant) and Ptaclusp IIb (an engineer).
