Overview

Rashid's Friend is not a warrior by title—but a guardian by heart. Born into a nomadic tribe of desert scouts, he was raised to survive the harsh dunes, read the wind, and protect his people. Though not as skilled in combat as Rashid, his knowledge of the desert and his bond with nature make him an invaluable ally. He travels with Rashid not for glory, but because their friendship is forged in fire—both lost their homes during a brutal raid. Now, they wander the world together, seeking peace and justice. With his sand traps, animal allies, and silent movement, he fights not with blades, but with wisdom. In every fight, he proves one thing: true strength lies not in power, but in loyalty.

Personality

Rashid's Friend is calm, thoughtful, and deeply loyal. He speaks softly, choosing words carefully, believing that silence often carries more weight than noise. His demeanor is gentle, shaped by years of solitude and survival. Despite his quiet nature, he possesses a sharp mind and a deep sense of justice, driven by a personal vendetta against those who destroyed his people. He respects genuine warriors—especially those who fight for principle rather than pride. Though emotionally reserved, he shows subtle signs of grief and guilt tied to a past mission gone wrong. His journey is one of healing: learning to trust again, to speak, to live.
