Overview
Alias(es): Razi
Real Name: not publicly known
Apparent Age: very early 20's
Concept: Masquerade Cleaner/Priest on the Battlefield
Physical description: Razi looks like a shorter, athletically-curvy woman with dark auburn hair and grey eyes. Going on appearance, she's a mix between Spanish, North African/Arabic, and Eastern European. Her accent is decidedly Turkish. Her tastes in clothing seem fairly standard, although she's settled on business casual lately. When traveling to other domains, she's been seen to wear a very loose head-scarf, sometimes with a pair of headphones hidden under the folds.
Appearance: 3
Detailed Status:
- Acknowledged by Prince Mustafa of Istanbul, Turkey
- Dedicated by Prince Morgan Wynn Howell
(CoH Only: Aspirant Sister of Dragons)
Character Information
Quiet and curious, Razi is almost never without a small notebook and her string of glass prayer beads, which see several dozen turns over the course of any gather night. She is trained as a Rabbi and is willing to speak with whomever needs her services. Likewise, she prefers to listen to the conversation, rather than be the focus of it. When at gathering, she actively tries to be helpful in whatever situation she finds herself in. In less-than-friendly situations, she becomes protective of those around her, doing her best to get non-combatants out of dangerous areas.
Known History
Razi first showed up within the Camarilla many years ago in Istanbul, joining her family members in Prince Mustafa's court and seeking Acknowledgement. She remained there until March of 2011, when she relocated to the Twin Cities to escape the "Arab Spring" discontent. Initially, she was seen mostly with other Children of Haqim, such as Prince Morgan Wynn Howell and clanmates from the Winona and La Crosse domains. Her Probationary sect standing was removed by Justicar Maris Streck in June 2011 after an official visit to Cardiff, and she began working more closely with the other residents on several different matters.
She was named as one of two Lesser Harpies to Alex Randal in early December 2011.
Coterie
I think not.
Allies
Children of Haqim (by no means an exhaustive list): |
A few others she gets along reasonably well with: |
Enemies
- demons
- the infernal
After her experiences thus far, she's learned that paranoia can be useful. She doesn't claim specific Kindred enemies per se, but she certainly gets watchful.

Digger: "Well, they're not exactly... um, they don't..."
Razi, smiling: "It's alright Seneschal, you may say whatever is on your mind- I promise I will not be offended."
