Backstory
Zahir Al-Maliki hails from a long lineage of Dao, genies of the earth and wealth. Born in the heart of a vast desert, Zahir’s life was steeped in the ancient lore and magic of his people. His family were revered scholars and magic users, dedicated to the study of ancient texts and arcane mysteries.
From a young age, Zahir was fascinated by the cosmos beyond the sands and the arcane power that flowed through the world. His curiosity led him to study under the greatest wizards of his realm, honing his magical prowess and gaining deep insights into the nature of reality and the weave of magic itself.
While Zahir enjoyed the luxury and power of his genie heritage, he was drawn to the mortal world by tales of heroism and adventure. He sought to understand the struggles and triumphs of those who lived without the boundless magic of the genies. Leaving his comfortable life behind, he embarked on a journey to explore the realms of mortals, using his knowledge and magical talents to aid those in need and to uncover the deeper mysteries of the multiverse.
His adventures have taken him from ancient ruins to bustling cities, where he uses his genie magic and wizardly skills to protect the innocent, unravel ancient prophecies, and seek out lost artifacts. Zahir’s ultimate goal is to bridge the gap between the mortal and genie worlds, fostering understanding and cooperation between these often disparate realms.
Zahir is known for his wisdom, charm, and a touch of eccentricity, reflecting the enigmatic nature of his genie heritage. He carries with him an air of mystery and a deep-seated desire to make a meaningful impact on the world, driven by the lessons learned from his extraordinary life as a genie and a wizard.
