` O divine Mediator,
O Allah,

AGE & DATE OF BIRTH . 38 . June 1202

` and to turn away Thine eyes from our vices,
I ask You for the best the day has to offer....

TATTOOS & PIERCINGS . None, they wouldn’t be fitting of a man of his status
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES . Hisham always wears the best clothes and walks around with the posture of a man who grew up in the military. His long and curly black hair is usually tied back in a tight pony tail and his facial hair is always neatly trimmed. He is a large man, tall and muscular with strong features and most would consider him handsome.
PHYSICAL FLAWS He has a battle wound on his left leg that never quite healed and sometimes causes him to limp if it is being particularly bothersome that day. His nose is also slightly crooked after being broken in a fist fight that was caused by Hisham trying to rescue a slave girl from her abusive master.

` who are inspired by the spirit of faith,

We have awoken, and all of creation has awoken,

LIKES . horses, prayer, archery, hunting, spending time with his family, reading and writing poetry
DISLIKES . being inferior to infidels, senseless fighting, unveiled women, sound of church bells
STRENGTHS . smooth talker, good listener and just decision maker, excellent archer, intelligent
WEAKNESSES . hot headed, bad temper, easily jealous, ambitious to the point of foolishness
GOALS . to return Jerusalem to the hands of the Muslims and have many sons to carry on his family name
FEARS . to die childless and without leaving a lasting legacy
SECRETS . has had Christian lovers in the past
OVERALL . [i]Hisham is usually a quiet and observant man until something ignites his temper and pushes him to lash out with a tongue whose words cut worse than knives. He is a brilliant man both in government and on the battle field and is a formidable foe to anyone who dares to cross him. While he is usually just when it comes to decision making, when he is in one of his moods he’s not above killing a man without a second thought. He enjoys having the reputation of being a strong, unwavering leader. It forces his people to stay in line which in turn, keeps the city in peace.

The amir is fiercely loyal to those who are lucky enough to earn his respect and so far the only person who has been able to do that in Jerusalem is his wife. While their marriage had been more of a business deal than a romantic affair, he has grown to love her with a fiery passion he normally reserves for battle and loves composing poetry about her in his spare time. His lack of a male heir, however, is beginning to wear on his nerves and he is currently in the market for wife number two. His first will always be his favorite but a man needs sons to carry on his family name and if she doesn’t become pregnant soon, he will have no choice but to take another. He has his eyes set on a woman from the royal family provided, of course, that she convert to Islam before the wedding.

In his free time, Hisham enjoys poetry and hunting. The library in his home houses thousands of volumes and he has read the vast majority of them cover to cover. His hunting skills are unrivaled in Jerusalem if not the entire known world and he never fails to miss a shot. As a leader, he tends to rule with an iron fist but also has a softer side to him too. He always goes to morning prayer in the public mosque to be seen by the public and makes it a point to be the one handing out alms to the poor every day.

` Remember Thy mercies of old,
forgive and have mercy on him,

BIRTHPLACE Damascus, Syria
CURRENT LOCATION . current Muslim ruler of Jerusalem, Israel
IMEDIATE FAMILY . Mother: Samar Ala’ al din
Father: Nasir ibn Yusuf Ala’ al din
PETS A song bird named Hala, his horse Salil, and a hunting falcon named Jinn
OTHER FAMILY His wife, yet to be named

HISTORY . Born to a poor merchant and his wife in Damascus, Hisham knew from an early age that the only way he would ever move up in society would be by joining the military. His father traded mostly in weapons and the future amir learned how to hold a sword before he could even walk. Seeing his son’s potential to be a soldier, Nasir Ala’ al din pooled together all his savings to hire him a weapons instructor who spent hours every day training the boy to use a variety of different arms. As soon as he was old enough, he joined the army and spent most of his young adult life traveling across the empire and fighting wherever the caliph sent him.

Because of his natural ability, Hisham quickly moved through the ranks and earned the title of amir, or general. No longer a lowly soldier, he was now able to lead his own campaigns and became a hero during the earliest campaigns. But then misfortune struck and he was gravely wounded in the last battle he would ever fight. A crusader’s lance went right through his leg and he would have bled to death if not for the blessing of Allah who miraculously healed him before he could reach the gardens of paradise. After that, he was no longer able to fight in the wars against the Christians but because of his lifetime of service to the caliph, he was granted the governorship of Jerusalem even though it is currently under Christian rule.

While the army had always been his calling, Hisham stayed true to his merchant roots and dabbled in business whenever he had the time and resources to do so. He invested in a trading caravan a few years before becoming the governor of Jerusalem and as part of his agreement with the caravan leader, married his eldest daughter. It was a marriage of convenience at the time but he had always been fond of the girl and even grew to love her as time went on. Because of his status in society, he decided he had the means to take a second wife and in a few short months after arriving in Jerusalem, gained the reputation of becoming one of the city’s most eligible bachelors.
