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 early-mid June after an official visit to Cardiff, and she began working more closely with the other residents on several different matters.

After taking part in a large hunt in nearby St. Cloud (a former Anarch territory that had been overtaken by the Sabbat), she has been seen to stay much closer to Court. At present, she is helping one of the local Nosferatu with a newly-arrived Samedi who has come under the Accounting.

Overview

Vague character reference... player pic to come soon!

Alias(es): Razi
Real Name: not publicly known
Apparent Age: very early 20's
Concept: Keeper of the Masquerade/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, but her accent is decidedly Turkish. Her taste in clothing is cosmopolitan but demure.

Appearance: 3

Detailed Status:

  • Acknowledged by Prince Mustafa of Istanbul, Turkey

(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. When such has come up in conversation, she states she is trained as a Rabba and is willing to speak with whomever needs her services. However, she prefers to listen to the conversation 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 acts protective of those around her, doing her best to get non-combatants out of dangerous areas and end confrontations as quickly and amicably as possible.

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.
