Yeah, I went with your suggestion for Mamluk earlier, but it was easy to miss. Maybe you can help me with the legions. My thought is that since the Sheikh took him into his household and raised him to be loyal to him, it makes sense for him to be a Mamluk. But, I feel like his loyalty is to...

I think you meant Ancalagon actually.

Blaise turns to see that Nia had silently joined them. His eyebrows arched in slight surprise before smiling sweetly at her. "The captain and I were discussing the road ahead. I was hoping that we might take the time to speak with Van Djik to find out what secrets he is holding from...

If I can throw out an idea tglassy and Quickleaf : what if Harun had taken the identity of a new recruit to the guard and had been placed under Husam's watch for the last week or so for training. Whatever the character or motivation of the Sheikh actually is, Husam believes that he is a man of...

Husam gives a slight nod as his Sheik mentions his name but maintains his decorum. He is in the company of royalty and knows his place. He stands off to the side taking stock of the visitors to the court. Lal, he knows and trusts. They had shed blood together and Husam remembered well how...

Heroforge runs off of flash which doesn't work on iPhones. That might have been it.

The embedded link should take you to the Hero Forge site, but, just in case, here's a screenshot too.

Okay, here's my attempt to make Husam. I have no sense of how to pair color (my wife has to approve my clothes when we go out). It's just never clicked with me. Anyway, that's just front loading the excuses. Here you go: Here's a link to a Heroforge attempt for maps and whatnot...

I'm working on that right now. I didn't build him off any picture so I'm trying to construct something (please don't make fun when it's done - I'm not an artist).

I'm catching up. I've updated my sheet with the AC bump, but I'm not going to tinker with the items. I'll get paralysis by analysis and waste time. Husam is ready to smash something for his Sheikh.

I see Husam as a mamluk though with his immediate loyalty Sheikh Ali of Tajar rather than to the Grand Caliph. I don't think his father was necessarily a mamluk, but I think since Husam was brought into the household as an infant and raised for the guard (and raised to honor the Sheik) that it...

I need to apologize. I overextended myself and dropped the ball for this game. I'm in the last two weeks of my semester and I'm swamped. You guys are off to a great start and I don't want to slow anything down. I kept trying to finish the character, but I had already over committed...

Blaise offers a smile for the beautiful captain, "It's a long story, captain. It's part of a debt I owe. The shortest version is that the gem was used for a horrific evil once. It's not a story that I care to repeat sober, but I will not allow it to be used in such a way again. It has a twin...

I think this has everything completed. Let me know if it's okay and I'll post it to the rogue's gallery. Husam

Quickleaf: I have no reference material to work off of so I just made a lot of stuff up. I couldn't even easily find the Sheikh's name to research him (shame). All that is to say that I'm not familiar with the character to build off of. I'm not sure why he would remind the sheikh of his...

Ancalagon, those could work. I wanted Hussam tied to the Sheik to ease him into joining the group. It also made more sense to me to provide some narrative reasons for the magical items and high level. A regular caravan guard doesn't strike me as elite enough to match the level/items. A...

I shifted gears from the idea of a caravan guard to serving the Sheik more directly. Let me know if this works. Husam grew up in the shadow of a father he never knew. The story was one he knew by heart. His father, Khalid, was a loyal guard to the exalted Sheik. The Sheik leads his people...
