Nigel Wassif, 43, proprietor of the Cairo Bulletin, agent for the King of England


Editor, owner, and reporter for the Cairo Bulletin, an English-language weekly newspaper, Wassif is a confirmed anglophile; the illegitimate son of an Egyptian noblewoman who died shortly after his birth. Wassif believes that his father was an English nobleman and, in conversation, implies that he is of royal blood, though he never makes a specific claim. A lot of influential Cairenes believe him, though, mostly because Wassif so thoroughly believes it himself.

Description: Wassif is well fed, with slicked-down hair and a pencil-thin mustache. His clothes are excellently cut and conservative, and he is always spotlessly clean and unruffled.

Traits: suave, charming, and remarkably alert to the social implications of a situation.
