Ahmed al-Dhahabi is currently acting both as an alim (learned Islamic scholar; plural: ulama) to the residents of the Ibn Tulun asylum, and as nazir (caretaker) for the waqf (Islamic endowment council) responsible for the former mosque. He is deeply upset about recent attempts to break into the former mosque to steal the Girdle of Nitocris, a critical element in the Brotherhood’s plans to resurrect the ancient queen. al-Dhahabi is aware of the Mythos gods and their minions, but perceives them as instances of the demonic menaces mentioned in the Qur’an.
He has zealously arranged the defense of the Girdle but, in the purity of his faith, he does not understand the danger to the world to be as pervasive and all-threatening as it really is.
Description: al-Dhahabi has a lined and careworn face framed by a long, white beard. He wears a traditional white taqiyah (skull cap).
Traits: patient, gentle, and devout.
