Notable Characters

Korabis, the current Neferan

The most powerful man in the whole of Khemet, Korabis is the sixth male of his bloodline to sit upon the throne. He has aged considerably since the day he became the Neferan, being now in his late thirties. However, he is still a stunningly handsome man with a majestic presence and deep, commanding voice. The Khemetar worship him as if Korabis were one of the divine. In fact, so far, he has given them no reason to believe otherwise.

Mu’tasim, leader of the Kaphiri

Mu’tasim is one of those rare individuals in which loyalty, physical and mental prowess converge in harmony. The Neferan always heeds his advice, even though his position would not really demand him to do anything else other than to fight in the defence of his sovereign. Notwithstanding this detail, Mu’tasim is a veteran of many combats and a man that has reached his forties with nothing but glorious deeds to have his people remember him by.

Neshun-Ris, the Grand Vizier

A thin and slightly curved old man is commonly seen standing beside the Khemetar Neferan. His apparent lack of physical power is more than counterbalanced by his remarkable intellect, given that no man in Khemet has ever succeeded in beating Neshun-Ris in a debate. Nonetheless, it is somewhat common knowledge that he resents the amount of respect the Neferan has towards the leader of the Kaphiri.

Cantara, the High Priestess of Khemet

A woman whose beauty is shadowed only by her ambitious designs, Cantara leads the Priests and Priestesses of the Khemetar religion with an unusual combination of grace and deception. Some speak of hideous crimes committed by her request, but anyone who dares voice such an opinion is bound to be arrested and cast down to slavery for verbally assaulting such an important government official without any tangible evidence.

Hashim al Din, the Khemetar Vashnir

A man of remarkable honesty and loyalty, specially for a Khemetar, Hashim is certainly not given the amount of prestige and respect he deserves. This is probably due to his quiet and introverted personality that has somewhat hindered his advancement within the Khemetar ranks. His personal friends always state that he should have become a Kaphiri or a Vizier, but he is dismissive of such comments, saying that he is content about where he is right now.
