Personality

History

He was originally from Talab in the Cities of the Pantheon and received his training as a mystic there.

Activities

He experienced a strong vision once while adventuring within the Cities of the Ancients where the Pantheist gods revealed that his hair was a filthy trait and should be shorn from his body if he wished to attain spiritual perfection. Despite being openly ridiculed for his new belief system, Sa'ib gained a strong following in Talab until he and his followers were exiled for smuggling weapons. Fate guided Sa'ib and his followers to Moradask where they could prosper without harassment. It was here that Sa'ib discovered a shrine to Ishistu, a savage albino rat god. The idol of Ishistu lacked any body hair and Sa'ib took this as a sign to begin worship the rat god.
