Nefer-ka-mutawakh

Nefer-ka-mutawakh Khamen al-Qamiya is an Azeral Dune Elven Ashuran from Qamiya and a member of the Askaru government. Throughout his life, he served many different positions, most of which related to record-keeping and archiving Ashuran traditions and history. He also takes care of the historic fortress of Pi-Medjayim.
== Early Life ==
Nefer-ka-mutawakh was born in the summer of 898 ACA to a Nabut family in the city of Qamiya, which at the time was called Ebonimemar and was part of the Sharla Province under the Aurlûnor Velande. Growing up, his grandfather's stories made him fascinated with Ashuran history and tradition, which his parents were against. At a young age, his mother remarried to a Lhûren, and they moved to Lhûmar, the capital of the Aurlûnor Velande. They converted to Twin Dragon and tried to integrate into Lhûren culture, but Nefer hated this change. At 24 years old, he ran away from Lhûmar and returned to Qamiya, where he moved in with some distant relatives. After becoming an adult at 30 years old, he started working as a fisherman and an amateur historian by recording local oral traditions and myths. At 32, he started an initiative to remove the ruins of the Empire of the Scarlet Islands in Carnëdǎo. His work was pretty successful and caught the eye of Azan Shaer, the governor of Sharla Province. As a reward for his work, Nefer was granted 40,000 Lûn and a house of his own to stay in.
== Aurlûnoren Government ==
Nefer started gaining more notoriety within Aurlûnor, and a year after his work in Carnëdǎo, he was selected to lead the restoration of Astrakane, which was now renamed to Pi-Medjayim. Technically, he was now a mayor in Aurlûnor. His position would only become more important during the Poultry War in 934 ACA, when a group that hated the Velereth Sareariel Lelya-Earcala attempted to conquer Aurlûnor. Pi-Medjayim was selected as the site of the battle, and Nefer helped to reinforce it and turn it into a proper fortress. Although the invaders surrendered before a battle occurred, Sareariel took notice of Nefer's dedication to his country.
In 941 ACA, Sareariel chose to make Nefer the Minister of Academics in Aurlûnor. Although his focus would soon shift away from Aurlûnor, he technically remained as an Aurlûnoren minister for years, and worked hard to document the history of Aurlûnor.
== Ashura ==
In 945 ACA, Nefer's home provinces of Sharla and Erúme revolted against Sareariel and established the Third Dominion of Ashura. Although technically still a vassal of Aurlûnor, Ashura was effectively an independent nation. Nefer became a member of the Pharaoh's court, which was one of the highest positions in Ashura. In his new position, he continued his dedication to education and history, and he founded the Cult of Asi. A notable contribution during this time was his definitive record of Ashuran history, which stretched all the way from the First Dominion of Ashura in 5,000 BCA to the founding of the new nation. 
In 961 ACA, Aurlûnor and Ryzan formed the Second Aurlûnoren-Ryzani Empire, and in 987 ACA, they formed the First United Crowns of Syltör. Ashura was still a vassal at this point, so in order to protect Ashuran interests, Se-khem-ka created the Ashuran People's Party, or APP for short. The APP ran in numerous Duma elections. Eventually, Se-khem-ka handed leadership of the APP over to Nefer, who continued promoting it heavily. In the 995 ACA Duma elections, the APP had a major victory and became the dominant party, winning three seats in the Duma. They created a coalition with the Union of Democrats/National Liberal Party (UD/NLP) and the Ryzani Communist Party in order to get a majority (6/11 seats). In 1000 ACA, at the age of 102, Nefer wrote and passed the landmark Minor Anti-Exploitation Act, which banned child labor within the United Crowns of Syltör. However, as the Second West March War waged on, the Duma became less active. Finally, in 1018 ACA, the war was lost, and the Treaty of Playistan officially disbanded the United Crowns of Syltör. As the Duma was gone, Nefer began looking for new ways to serve Ashura, which at this point had expanded and was now called the Nandór Confederation.
Nefer was named the Royal Archivist in 1036 ACA. He used his new position to reach out to numerous tribes, including the Asbec people. In the 1060s, he and Jun-se Khamen collaborated on many archaeological excavations, during which they discovered an ancient Miandi tomb, an ancient Nabut tomb, and a series of hidden passages burried beneath the Ashuran sand. Nefer also acted as a diplomat to Lirgal along with Sapeca48. They established a Nandóren embassy within Lirgal. Later, in 1087 ACA, the Khamen al-Qamiya family adopted Nefer as a member.
== Azeraan ==
Nandór was renamed to Askaru, and in 1099 ACA, the regions of Ashura and Hiarlliia merged to form the Azeraan Crownlands, which was a member state of Askaru. Nefer was elected to Azeraan's legislative body, the Ixpia. He served as an important member, and also acted as a messanger during a raid on Necua, where he helped alert an army to defend the island. During this time, he was also a member of the Upper Council of Askaru. In 1123 ACA, the Head-Tetli of Azeraan, Duskic Tizoc, made him the Scribe Sub-Tetli, so that he could continue his job of recording history.
Following the revelation that the world would be destroyed by a comet and Rathnir would be frozen forever, Nefer took the lead in preserving Ashuran history. He renovated the Nabut tomb and the Temple of Rhajat, as well as constructing the Temple of Anu and Nedu on top of the old tunnel system. His greatest contribution was building the Museum of Ashuran History, which contains many Ashuran artifacts from throughout his history. He also donated his book collection to the new Library of Asi in Qamiya, and he and Jun-se collaborated to create a golden pyramid to house Pharaoh Gildun "oShotty" Amakiir's remains. His final act was to create a tomb for himself, which he will lay in in 1125 ACA when the world finally ends.
