Physical Description

Fayaad el-Othman Shahad stands 5'11“ tall, and weighs approximately 165 lbs, with an athletic build. His skin is a deep tan, with the bony plates unique to the Iroma that cover his joints and spine a slightly lighter shade of tan. His facial features are sharp, with a long straight nose and deep set “droopy” eyes. His irises are a deep red colour, and glow slightly when viewed in the dark. On either side of his head, where ears would be on a human, a pair of black bone-like horns jut out and upwards, curving back and forwards again in a slight ”(“ shape. His black hair is kept cut to about the nape of his neck, and is usually brushed back and set with product. He wears a short pointed beard, and well groomed moustasche.

Personality

Fayaad Shahad presents outwardly as a dour man of few words; preferring to speak little unless spoken to by another. This often is perceived as an unwillingness to socialize, or as a haughty attitude, but in reality it is simply his preference to listen and understand before he replies. He trusts others implicitly, forming what he believes to be a friendship, rather quickly, and would do nearly anything to assist another being, even a near total stranger. Breaking his trust however, is a grave offence that will be remembered and avenged if possible, and is the quickest way to anger him.

In life he aspires to learn more of mechanics, both organic and machine; as well as to serve his people and the ancient Makuori as well as he can. To this end he pursues a career in the military as a mechanist, and hones his mind and body through meditation and practice with the traditional martial art of the Sund Wakir; both of which he devotes himself to fully.

He maintains few relationships outside of his work in the military, his family remaining in the Deserts of Maekardan, and having few true friends in his life with which he associates.
