Re: Around the World With A New Character Each Week Evolina Khan could be his daughter???

Re: Around the World With A New Character Each Week Evol Khan Character Sheet (Click Here) Background Khan was born during the Second World War, although his real name is unknown. It is suspected that his father was involved with the German Nazi Party and his mother was a rich land owner in Zimbabwe, but no details are available. What is known of Khan is that he grew up in Zimbabwe with foster parents, and violently pursued his education, usually at the expense of friendships or any kind of close personal relationship. When he moved from Harare to study at Cambridge, he did not leave any family or friends behind. In England he continued his solitary pursuit of education and power. He invested money he had saved, as well as money he had swindled from his richer class mates, and began to secretly amass a personal fortune. In the mid- to late-1960s he worked for a powerful bank and used his position to establish a very successful and profitable insider trading scheme, which helped him secure an influential network of contacts across the globe. He fed the network sensitive information and they all prospered. In the 1970s, Khan took over the bank and became one of the top 100 richest men in Europe. He began to envision an empire, with him as the undisputed leader. It had been a dream of his since his obscure childhood but he had begun to realise that the current political climate in Europe and most of the West was not going to allow any kind of passive take over. His eyes drifted to the East. By chance, he met the exiled Mayumi Matsukara who was one of the planet's oldest and most powerful ubers. He began to seduce her, hoping initially to secure her desire, but when he realised she was not, and never would be, interested, he turned his attention to sharing his dream. He could sense that she was lonely, adrift in the 20th Century. His dream of a peaceful city-state allowed her to feel that perhaps she did, indeed, have a purpose. Khan enjoyed manoeuvring Atomic Girl into his plans, even more than he would have enjoyed the pleasures of her flesh. Khan and Matsukara moved to Singapore shortly after, Khan shifted his business empire to the South East Asian city. The country welcomed him, and his wealth, but he realised taking over a country was going to be more difficult than he first imagined. He realised he had been racist in underestimating the Singaporean government, but he was a colonial at heart. It took him nearly ten years and millions of dollars before he was in a position to contest the Presidential elections, but by that time he had secured enough votes to guarantee a win. He was elected President on the promise of creating a crime free state. Upon reaching office he began to reveal his plans in more detail. Atomic Girl returned to active status at his side and provided the famous face and impressive power to showcase his dream. He pulled in favours from the legal and illegal quarters of the world and made deadly sweeps of the city to "flush out the rats". Within a year the most serious of Singaporean crime had vanished. Atomic Girl had her work cut out for her, and she soon recruited more ubers to help her, dubbing them the Singapore Samurai. Khan was amused. The second Singapore Shield had continued to operate as an independent hero during this time, and Khan met with him secretly, threatening him with death or imprisonment if he continued to operate. The Shield knew he was serious and resigned from public life. While Atomic Girl gathered momentum in her public displays of efficient security, Khan worked on the illicit side of politics and business. He cornered many black markets in South East Asia, systematically destroying the criminal empires of his rivals either through financial takeovers, the use of mercenaries and assassins, or through Atomic Girl and her idealistic Samurai. Soon Khan was the undisputed Crime Lord of South East Asia. When he decided not to contest the next Presidential elections, Khan was considered to be even more powerful than any elected official could conceive of. He did, in fact, organise his replacement and holds almost total control over the Singaporean government. Personality Evol Khan is a very powerful man and he is acutely aware of the influence he has on the world around him, both in a public manner as well as the more subtle and deadly ways. He is manipulative and methodical, and has failed to make any lasting relationships beyond those of business partners or people he trades favours with. Since his fractured childhood, Khan has been looking for power and comfort and he has found it in Singapore. This sanctuary is what he promised - a place free from crime. But it also holds dark secrets, entirely controlled by Khan himself. He is a hedonist, and enjoys the darker desires of human nature. He has established 'pleasure palaces' across his properties in Singapore and beyond where all kinds of dark deeds occur. He is fiercely protective of what he has accumulated and although his desire for greater power has levelled out, he will always look on a new opportunity with an open mind. Quote “All you see is mine. Even your reflection belongs to me.” Powers Evol Khan is a master of money. He is rich and powerful, having control of Singaporean society and the crime networks of most of South East Asia. He is a strategist and a keen observer of human nature, but beyond these abilities he is purely a normal human. Appearance Khan is a man in his sixties, and has had to work hard throughout his life at the expense of positive relationships. He appears genial at times, while at other times he can look dark and brooding. He walks with a cane, but it is unclear whether he relies on it for support or for protection, as it contains a concealed blade. Khan likes to dress as a patriarch: always in expensive materials, and never in a conventional cut. He enjoys being seen as sitting beyond the normal citizens of his city, and favours all things luxurious and a little decadent.

Re: Around the World With A New Character Each Week #152 HYENA (Saudi Arabia) HYENA Hazim bin Hazim Character Sheet-Hybrid Form (Click Here) Character Sheet-Human Form (Click Here) Character Sheet-Animal Form (Click Here) Background Eighth centuries Arabia had changed dramatically in the two centuries since Mohammed brought the word of Allah to the faithful. Like a sandstorm Islam spread from Arabia to Africa, east to India, and even as far as Europe. It was a Golden Age in the Middle East. Pilgrim from far and wide came to Mecca to perform the Hadj and to pray at the Mosque of the Prophet. Enter Hazim bin Hazim, a man with vision. Hazim's vision was one in which he was the wealthiest men in all of Arabia. How was Hazim bin Hazim going to accomplish his vision? He was going to rob every pilgrim he could find. However, Hazim bin Hazim was a fair bandit, as bandits go. He would offer his victims a choice. Either they make him laugh or Hazim bin Hazim would feed them to his pet hyena. Once during the height of the Hadj, Hazim bin Hazim ambushed a group of pilgrims. After the dust had settled Hazim bin Hazim was sitting down counting his loot when one of his victims proved to be more alive than Hazim bin Hazim thought he would be. Hazim bin Hazim being disappointed in his take though he would have a little sport with his victim. “Not dead are you?” Hazim bin Hazim asked while giving the man a few choice kicks. “I'll tell you what,” said Hazim bin Hazim “you make me laugh, and I'll let you live. Fail and I'll feed you to my hyena.” The man looked up at Hazim bin Hazim with a bloodied face and spit out some sand. “You are truly a wicked man Hazim bin Hazim. I won't humor you monster. Allah turns his face from you. I curse you and your sons. May every ninth generation of your sons become unto the hyena, which you relate more to than you fellow Muslim.” “You know,” said Hazim bin Hazim, “that wasn't very funny. Not funny at all.” With a whistle Hazim bin Hazim summoned his pet hyena. Hazim bin Hazim never again thought about the man or his words to his dying day. However, these words were to haunt his descendants ever since. Hazim bin Hazim was the first descendant of Hazim bin Hazim the bandit. He changed one night into a ravening beast. Hazim bin Hazim was a clerk in the court of the caliph in Baghdad. He was to kill six people before he was hunted down by the caliph's soldiers. His family fled into the night. Thus did the curse on the sons of Hazim bin Hazim continue on down through the generations. Enter the current Hazim bin Hazim; for all the sons of Hazim bin Hazim who were cursed were named thus. However, this Hazim bin Hazim was different then most of the Hazim bin Hazims. This Hazim bin Hazim actually had a sense of humor. Hazim bin Hazim actually got the meaning of the family curse and because of his understanding has given Hazim bin Hazim some control over his transformation. It also help that Hazim bin Hazim is a stand up comedian. Hazim bin Hazim was doing his act at a coffeehouse in Riyadh when he noticed a strange man sitting in the front row. This guy looked like a tough nut to crack, because the guy, who was pretty spooky looking with his eye patch and all, just sat there staring at Hazim bin Hazim. Hazim bin Hazim tried all night to get the man to laugh to even crack a smile, and nothing worked. After his set Hazim bin Hazim went outside for a smoke. Naturally the strange man followed him. "Hazim bin Hazim," said the man. "Yeah that's me." "I am Colonel Faisal ibn Abdullah Al Saud." "So, do you want my autograph." "Uh, no. I want you." "Okay what is the joke buddy." "No joke, Hazim bin Hazim, I never joke. The kingdom needs your unique abilities. I know all about you and your problem. I am head of a secret organization called the Directorate. You will be joining the Directorate." "This must be a joke, but it might be good for a laugh. So I am your man, or maybe I am your hyena." Personality Hazim bin Hazim has always been a comedian. He's always telling jokes or just plain laughing regardless of whether he's in his hybrid or human form. To Hazim bin Hazim life is a joke, and he's the only one who gets the punchline. He is never serious, and of course this often times gets on the nerves of Colonel Saud. Of course being a wiseguy, Hazim bin Hazim goes out of his way to try and get the stodgy to laugh. Quote "No, no stop me if you've heard this one before." Powers Hazim bin Hazim is a lycanthrope, but his is different the the run of the mill lycanthrope, Hazim bin Hazim is cursed to become a monstrous werehyena. Being a cursed person, Hazim bin Hazim cannot pass the curse onto others like a typical lycanthrope. As a werehyena, Hazim bin Hazim can assume three different distinct forms. His human form is probably the weakest of the three, but in all three forms Hazim bin Hazim maintains a certain resilience that could only be considered supernatural. Blows that don't come from silver weapons heal super-humanly fast, and energy attacks that aren't fire based heal just as quickly. It is when Hazim bin Hazim is in his hybrid form that he is the most dangerous. As a hybrid, Hazim becomes super-humanly strong and quick. His fingers end with super sharp claws, and his teeth become just like those of the animal he becomes. Also in this form, Hazim bin Hazim can run and jump like an Olympic athlete. His sense of smell becomes quite acute when in his hybrid form. Hazim bin Hazim's other senses become more than human as well. In his purely hyena form, Hazim bin Hazim still has a powerful bite, and retains the senses that he shares with his hybrid form. Appearance In his human form, Hazim bin Hazim is a dark skinned Arab with mousy brown hair. Hazim bin Hazim is fairly hairy fellow, and always has a mustache and a light beard. When expecting action, Hazim bin Hazim typically wears just a pair of green shorts with a white border on the sides. This is because his transformations has a tendency of destroying his clothes. There is a small birthmark on his right hand shaped like a star. Only those who're born with the curse have this birthmark in Hazim bin Hazim's family. In his hyena form, Hazim bin Hazim becomes an unusually large spotted hyena. He's constantly cackling when in this form. In his hybrid form, Hazim bin Hazim combines the traits of hyena and human. Hazim bin Hazim grows a little taller and puts on more weight. His body becomes covered with fur just like a spotted hyena. The only clothing that his hybrid form wears are the green shorts. In his hybrid form, Hazim bin Hazim always a wide smile that displays his rows of super sharp teeth.
