chesspiece19 for Sheikh Karif Funar
Sheikh Karif Funar is the head of the Harazood, a nomadic desert tribe which frequently camps near the Oasis of Zilal in the desert of Miramoor. Wise beyond his years, Karif is a man of action, balancing the demands of a changing modern world against the old ways. Karif has sent his second son, Barath, to Tristar Academy in the hope that he will be able to bring back this new knowledge and help his tribe thrive in the uncertain future.
“These visitors bring many advances of interest to our people. They are like curious little children,
reaching for the bright flames of the fire without the knowledge that it may burn them. Do I err in attempting to protect them, to prevent them from being injured by a culture that they do not understand?”(angrily) "Once again, you have tricked us, Tarquin! Did you think us foolish enough to trust you this time when all of your promises only resulted in problems and wasted coin? (growls angrily) In the old days, I would have buried you alive in the sand and allowed the desert creatures to consume you, piece by tiny piece!”
“(in a hushed voice) It is a changing world in which we live, Olek. If the Harazood do not rise to meet
it, I fear that it shall utterly consume us."
