Look

You see Shaheen Shadowflight, a Gnome. A barrier of black lines surrounds Shaheen. The lines are thin and crazed, creating the illusion that he is a broken glass sculpture. Shaheen has an angular face and silver-flecked sapphire eyes. His deep blue-streaked silver hair is short and thick, and is worn in a tangled mass with a pair of silversteel-riveted black leather goggles stuck in apparently at random amidst the coils of hair. He has weathered skin and a stout build. He is very tall for a Gnome. A multi-hued tourmaline shaped like three overlapping moons rests on his forehead, just above his eyes. He appears to be mature. He has a neatly trimmed mustache that frames his upper lip and a short pointed goatee. Two thick steel rings encircle either end of the mustache, the metal polished to a mirrored sheen. His forehead has a tattoo of interlocking red, blue and black spirals forming a triskele pattern. He is in good shape.

He is wearing a dull serpent earcuff, a curious parry stick decorated with a multitude of grooved triskele patterns, a weathered nightsilk shroud adorned with a network of diagrams and faded equations, a triskele medallion, an exquisitely crafted moneybelt swathed in layers of tenebrous nightsilk, an exquisite nightsilk duffel and some elegant nightsilk robes embroidered with the crest of the Moon Mage guild.

History

Shaheen was born to his mother, Bahiyyih Alizadeh somewhere in the Velakan deserts in 349. His father is unknown. He has no memory of being raised in the sands, and at a very young age he was sent to the Lesser Fist in southern Therengia to study Lunar Magic. Shaheen wasn't a very good student, and spent most of his time in Riverhaven, sitting around the crate and socializing with locals. His interest in being a Moon Mage waned, and he took interest in developing his martial skills.

One day a messenger from Muspar'i informed Shaheen that his mother had gone missing, most likely in the Astral Plane. Although his relationship with his mother was distant, this reignited his interest in Lunar Magic and Astrology. He then moved to Taisgath and the nearby Mer'Kresh, and refocused on his academics. He continued developing his martial abilities, but focused on his combat magics rather than weapons.

In 416, Shaheen moved back to mainland, where he is a citizen of Shard.
