Samir Aghar

## Description

Samir stands a few inches shorter than most humans that stand around him, no more than five feet and six inches. His skin is smooth and lighter than most of his Kushite brethren, almost to where it is somewhat reflective when cast upon by a torch or light. Contrasting to his darker skin, his eyes shine a brilliant jade shade of green, crisp and bright. His hair is his most notable feature by far, luscious, long, and bundled together to drape down his back in a ponytail.

### Armor

Specially crafted and fitted perfectly for his bodily build and size, his plated armor is concise and segmented, tinted a deep, metallic purple. Every edge of every plate is adorned in a regal gold trim, reflective every shining source. Beneath the plate and bindings that held them, he wore a simple light cloth shirt and trousers, and leather gloves.

### Arms

The weapon most favored by Samir would be his treasured Pointain axe, crafted by Sitka in traditional cultural style with her chosen enhancements that increase the axe blades edge. Raggedly fastened around the shoulder of the axe was a torn piece of red cloth.

Coupled with his axe, he also carries a sturdy, light kite shield made of wood and trimmed with metal.

## History

Born into a life of poverty and starvation, with no siblings to speak of, Samir had only his mother to serve as a figure of importance. When she had passed on from the world, he was left to roam aimlessly, with no hope and very little chance of survival. One way or another, he had survived, and he had found himself in the Exiled Lands.

### Skills

Samir appears to be a proficient warrior, with both blade and axe, though the irony is often ripe for those who know of his pacifistic ways. As a result, he has honed his abilities to solving altercations efficiently with reason and sincerity, with word and compassion. As a child, forced to gather and find food, hunting soon came quick to him, albeit not taught by any great teacher or mentor- but rather by himself. With so much time alone to himself, and with such deep and traumatic regrets from his past life, Samir has found peace and a new way of life in meditation and higher thinking, and for many months lived in solidarity in the presence of wise men and philosophers, which has only served to heighten his senses and improve his mental resilience.

### Major Flaw/Flaws:

Samir justifies himself with a deep, fanatic selflessness that echoes onto almost anyone that stays long enough to leave a positive impression on him, often to the point where he would suffer greatly even for someone he just met. Unfortunately, with his positive and forward thinking demeanor, he can be considered naive, even sometimes called 'foolish' for his unrealistic ideals.

### Minor Flaw/Flaws:

Most of the flaws that he suffers from span back to his childhood where he was first afflicted by his dangerous habits. Horrifying memories plague his dreams, and his uplifting personality only served to hide the terrible nightmares that harass him through his sleep. Every life that he has the privilege of seeing is sacred to him, and any harm bestowed unto them sits poorly with his mentality, even if it is someone who has done bad.

## Personality

Incredibly kind to all those that he meets, and treats everyone with a universal respect. If someone is not his friend, it's bound to change soon, and his charismatic persona only serves to prove this further. More often than not, Samir carries a calmed, sometimes stoic demeanor about him that only melts away to show his more bubbly personality when he speaks and interacts with friends.

### Beliefs

Strongly believes in the innocence of humanity, and that life is worth preserving. Strongly detests wanton displays of violence and cruelty.

### Quirks

Samir suffers from having little to no contact with other people as a child, and as a result does not receive social queues the same way that others do, often times leaving him confused at the end of certain humor and unsure of casual customs.

### Relationships

Veldrin - A discreet and agreeable man who Samir enjoys the company of. Speaking with the man always intrigues Samir as he is always candid.

Lex - A man whom Samir has taken a personal responsibility to provide protection for. It may be unmutual and unvoiced, though Samir has come to form a loyalty to Lex, and deeply enjoys him as a companion, and a friend.

Cian - After talking with her and taking up her company after an incident, Samir has has the only evidence to prove that she is as innocent as she appears. As such, Samir often takes an even more soft and gentle approach to her when given the privilege of seeing her. To him, she is a fond friend.

Victoria - The woman that allowed him to migrate into The Odd Few. Samir will always be in her debt, and admires her chilled and witty personality, though his own disposition shows silent unease for Victoria's liberal use of undead, and her companion. It seems to be warming.

Sitka - A giantess, big and lovely. Sitka has proven to be a great and handy friend to Samir, and there is not a moment he does not enjoy her company. Strangely enough, her stroic demeanor somehow brings him away from his own, and he finds himself being less reserved when he speaks around her.

Aila - The bar maiden- perhaps even tavern keeper whom offered him warm food, drink, and a place to stay along with his friend Lex. She is always very kind, and perhaps the most hardworking of all Samir's friends, despite having a clear dysfunction with her arm. She receives nothing but respect and friendly warmth from the man whenever they speak, and he always receives the same.

Ylva - Another woman who works at the tavern, but also studies as a herbalist and doctor. Her beauty is exceedingly enchanting to Samir, closely matching her smooth and warm personality. When Samir speaks to her, he finds his nerves calmed. She will always find help if she needs it when coming to Samir.

Tom - Tom is a hardy man with a short fuse, but Samir still caries a modicum of respect for him. Samir is unfond of Tom's behavior and willingness to rush to his blade in any confrontation, though Samir still believes he is a good man within. Otherwise, his company is usually enjoyed, and his initial hospitality will not soon be forgotten.
