<div class="floatleft">(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v353/paginacastel/BedouinWithPipe1920s.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Rahat Mautlauq<br/><strong>Age: </strong>26<br/><strong>Sex: </strong>male<br/><strong>Race: </strong>Bedouin<br/><strong>Religion: </strong>Bedouin Islamic<br/><strong>Role: </strong>Guide, survival expert, and combatant<br/><strong>Sexuality: </strong>Heterosexual<br/><strong>Smutt: </strong>Same as player<br/><strong>Notable Abilities/Skills:</strong>Navigation, survival, horsemanship<br/><br/><strong>Weapons of choice:</strong>Sword, rifle<br/><br/><strong>Appearance: </strong>Tall, lean, and weathered. A man the desert had stripped the weakness from long ago. Dark of skin and beard wearing the stoney expression of a man too long in battle. Fierce in expression and always wearing the traditional garb of his people including his sword.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Far friendlier than his appearance would lead one to believe. Likes to laugh and joke. If he had his way his days would be spent with a pipe with good friends and his nights would be spent with a good woman. Still stalwart in the face of battle and honorable to all. Sharaf, Diyafa, and Hamasa are more than words to him - more than simple precepts of his people. He has built his life around honor.<br/><br/><strong>Hobbies:</strong>Horse breeding, pipe smoking, reading<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong>Rahat and his father Kader before him have long been friends with Colonel Ayers often visiting his bar when they made the trip to the city to trade. When he was young he would listen to tales that he did not understand of lost temples and ruins and horrors. As he grew older he would have written them off as so many others had if he had not seen the shadow in his fathers eyes when they spoke of them. While he never knew the full truth he did know that his father was often the Colonels guide on his expeditions into the desert. His father survived many expeditions but they took their toll upon the man till the once proud man was a withered remnant of himself. In his final days as his body succumbed to illness and his mind to vivid hallucinations he made his son promise to aid the Colonel once he was gone - and Rahat was a dutiful son.<br/><br/>Concept: Bedouin Guide<br/>Rank: Seasoned<br/><br/>Attributes:<br/><br/>Strength d4<br/>Agility     d8<br/>Vigor      d8<br/>Smarts   d6<br/>Spirit      d6<br/><br/>Derived Stats:<br/><br/>Charisma<br/>Pace<br/>Parry<br/>Toughness<br/>Sanity<br/><br/>Skills:<br/><br/>Knowledge (English) d6<br/>Knowledge (Navigation) d6<br/>Persuasion d4<br/>Riding d8<br/>Survival d6<br/>Tracking d4<br/>Fighting d8<br/>Shooting d8<br/>Stealth d4<br/>Notice d6<br/><br/>Edges:<br/>Grizzled (Free Edge)<br/>Steady Hands<br/>Born to Ride (+2 Ride rolls)<br/><br/>Hindrances:<br/>Conde of Honor (Major)<br/>Stubborn (Minor)<br/><br/>Advances:<br/>4 (20 xp debt)<br/>Agility to d8<br/>Raise Knowledge (English) & Knowledge (Navigation) to d6<br/>Steady Hands Edge<br/>Born to Ride Edge<br/><br/>Encumbrance:<br/><br/>Armor:<br/><br/>None<br/><br/>Weapon:<br/><br/>Scimitar (Str+d8), M1 Garand Rifle<br/><br/>Equipment:<br/><br/>His horse Storm, tent, survival gear, pipe
