Jal Halaam

Jal Halaam, Sultan of Jamzodeh, is a mousy, stoop-shouldered bureaucrat whose appearance does not suggest the great power he wields within the city of Raha and its hinterlands. His voice is soft, yet his words convey his wisdom. He was installed as an interim Sultan by the Caliph following the assassination of his predecessor. (The murder was allegedly performed by the Winds of Blood, a group of holy slayers based in the Ruspak Mountains.) Sultan Halaam has proved to be a capable administrator, and he does not interfere with the traders and merchants. Though he is rarely seen in public, the force of his pronouncements are felt throughout the Sultanate.
Halaam counts among his possessions the amazing Yurisima, a woman assembled from portions of the corpses of dead women and animated by an incredibly intense magnetic field. Yurisima was created by the Sultan's Grand Vizier, Hassam Rukhali.
Sultan Halaam has a keen interest in health and disease. He has ordered the mamluk guard to regularly check the reservoir and pipes for dangerous contagia and creatures known to cause or carry maladies. And he insists that all slave-traders guarantee that their slaves from the Kalliwah are clean and without taint. People with information regarding new diseases - excluding those who actually display symptoms, of course - are expected to report their knowledge to Jaimana Asaan (the Sultan's assistant). Of particular interest to the Sultan are diseases, curses, and mystical diseases that defy known cures. Sultan Halaam has promised to share any discoveries based on his research to the leaders of other Kaspari cities, especially those of Azad.
