## History

Amir ben Altar was a modest Jewish medical assistant in Egypt with dreams of becoming a doctor. His life took an unexpected turn when he and his boss were kidnapped by terrorists, seeking medical assistance for their leader. Tragedy struck when Amir's boss, out of pride, refused to comply and was fatally struck down.

#### Divine Intervention

Alone in his cell, Amir, overwhelmed by grief and despair, made a silent prayer for help. In a mystical twist of fate, his plea reached the ears of the ancient sorcerer Nabu. Amir found himself transported to the Tower of Fate, where he was visited by a vision of Kent and Inza Nelson, the previous bearers of the Dr. Fate mantle. They presented him with a choice—The Helmet of Fate or The Sword of Fate.

#### The Fateful Choice:

Kent and Inza, ethereal guides, explained the nature of the choice before Amir. The Helmet of Fate represented the mastery of magic and the arcane, while The Sword of Fate symbolized the strength and determination to fight against injustice. Amir, recognizing the need for both wisdom and strength, chose the Helmet of Fate.

### Year 6

Making his debut in "Amulet Warriors," he extends an invitation to the titular mystical heroes, providing them sanctuary within the Tower of Fate. However, tensions arise when he encounters Khalid Navari, a Berber archaeologist adorned with the Amulet of Ibis and also bearing the title of Doctor Fate. This initiates a naming dispute between the two, leading to a temporary resolution where they agree to share the mantle as Dr. Fate.

## Powers

Wielding the Helmet of Fate, Amir gains an unparalleled mastery of magic and the mystic arts. He can manipulate reality, cast spells, and tap into ancient, arcane knowledge. The helmet enhances his intellect, allowing him to understand and wield magical forces with precision.

Amir can project his consciousness beyond the physical realm, exploring mystical planes and gaining insights into hidden truths. This ability allows him to gather information, communicate across great distances, and navigate the unseen dimensions of the magical realm.

The Helmet of Fate provides Amir with powerful protective enchantments. He can create mystical shields, deflect physical and magical attacks, and manipulate energy to safeguard himself and others from harm.

## Costume

Dr. Fate's costume has been modernized to reflect Amir's cultural background. The traditional helmet incorporates symbols from ancient Egyptian and Jewish mysticism, emphasizing the convergence of diverse influences in Amir's newfound role.
