Erânshahr's appearance is hard to pin down, as he practices his [[Egeriae | family]] trait of ''Denying the shallow death'' through rebirth in a protégé.  However the subjects he chooses when the signs are near are reasonably tall, and when they assume his mantle they take on his style and dress.  Thus his beard is neatly shaped and short and he is usually found wearing flowing [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sirwal sirwal (punjabi pants)], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turban turban] and a richly crafted and decorated [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thawb thawb] held closed with a sash. Unlike the traditional style from his homeland, he has been known to adorn his turban in dastar style with a brooch or an aad chand. He alternates between sandals and boots, but is never seen without his shamshir sword.

"Belief in a single true god has never, and will not ever, be able to be maintained as there are multiple spirits of power all subtly pulling us this way and that. This is perfectly illustrated by how individuals can naturally have very different ideas of right and wrong. Christianity has  been and continues to be divisive, and we need to make the kine recognise this so that they come to pay homage to the god-spirits of all things." - the philosophy of Erânshahr.

Erânshahr

Personal Information

Appearance

Erânshahr's appearance is hard to pin down, as he practices his family trait of Denying the shallow death through rebirth in a protégé. However the subjects he chooses when the signs are near are reasonably tall, and when they assume his mantle they take on his style and dress. Thus his beard is neatly shaped and short and he is usually found wearing flowing sirwal (punjabi pants), turban and a richly crafted and decorated thawb held closed with a sash. Unlike the traditional style from his homeland, he has been known to adorn his turban in dastar style with a brooch or an aad chand. He alternates between sandals and boots, but is never seen without his shamshir sword.

Personality

Previously known among the Kine as "The Semitic Fire" due to his fierce temper, the only change in the millennia is that Erânshahr's anger has evolved from range and violence to a more subtle streak of manipulation and backstabbing. In the nights before his disappearance, he was known to never show his anger, but seethe quietly underneath a façade of polite friendliness till he had you where he wanted you and you fell so hard that you could never get up again. This tactic, well known amongst his clan, meant that soon he was tarred with the same brush, and became as mistrusted as the other shadows.

Mortal World

Erânshahr has re-invented himself to the mortal world more than he has remade himself to avoid the effects of torpor. What his name was when he was born is lost to the kine, and when he began his campaign against Islam, he took on many pseudonyms, further confusing the matter. Kine of the time of his mortal life are even divided over what happened after the assassination of the Caliph Umar that lead to his Embrace. Some say he killed himself, others claim that he died and was buried in Kashan. Since re-invented himself many times, but has taken deliberate steps to hide from the society of Kine. Names or appearances he appears as never last long in the minds of mortals, being as forgettable as his interactions are with him. He is less than a shadow, he is unseen, unheard, and even after still forgotten.
