Raziyah, more commonly called just 'Raz', is a wandering warrior from the desert sands of Avesha. As a 'Sandwalker', one of the Divine of Earth's chosen warriors. Raziyah upholds honor and justice in his typically perilous home region. His daggers, though admittedly a bit gaudy, hold within them a secret... twin souls are bound to them, Cyra and Nasir, and they help guide Raziyah on his journey.

He is an honorable man, sticking to law, tradition, and his strong moral compass to decide his actions. He is not blind to nuance, however, and will rarely break such codes if they are in the way of a superior outcome... much to the dismay of his peers. Outside of duty and combat, however, Raziyah is a very different man than you might expect. He is stiff, awkward, and overly calculating, not quite used to spending downtime with anyone but his daggers.

Rather tall, Raziyah has an imposing presence. His height combined with his masked face and ever-present serious expression marks him as someone to generally be avoided... doubly so if you recognize his attire, marking him as a Sandwalker. Much of his body is covered so it would not be apparent, but under his clothing is a scarred body bearing evidence of dozens of battles.

Raziyah only wears clothing associated with his order, the Sandwalkers. While the uniforms are rather varied, the one Raziyah favors has a set of dark brown full-body armor, along with a gold-accented red cloth. With him, at all times his is prized possession: a pair of golden living daggers, inhabited by the spirits Cyra and Nasir.

Backstory

Raziyah had far from a normal upbringing. He was raised in an orphanage in northern Avesha, biological parents nowhere to be seen. This life was not one that Raziyah liked, so he left at a young age to go at it alone. His city was poor and rife with crime, and the young Raziyah did what he had to to survive, though he most often targeted other thieves. When he was about twelve, however, things would change...

His latest haul included a crate of valuables stolen from a corrupt merchant. Within this crate was an intricate pair of daggers, which Raziyah quickly found himself fascinated by. He kept them with him and began using them on his vigilantism bouts.

Eventually, Raziyah made a mistake. He walked directly into an ambush set up by an alliance of the bastards he most often targeted, and they attempted to kill him. Raziyah barely managed to escape by flinging himself from the rooftops, landing badly, and dragging himself away. He had taken several hits and was well on his way to bleeding out.

At this point, the daggers revealed themselves to him. They told Raziyah to grasp them... and once he did, they flowed life into him, giving him the strength to drag himself to safety and lay low for a while. He took weeks to recover fully, and he spent that time speaking to his daggers. They were Cyra and Nasir, soulbound weapons, the sixth of the seven, and servants to the ancient forgotten Emperor Xylan.

In the thirteen years since, Cyra and Nasir have helped guide Raziyah in his journeys, helping form the righteous man he is today. At one point, he was 'scouted' by the Sandwalkers, a group of men and women who try to bring order to central Avesha. Offered a place by their side in the Aveshan tribal capital of Zaaira, Raziyah left his hometown and has never looked back.
