Laru'Dahl
Laru'Dahl is an individual who has quietly traveled by Ashuanar's side since his appointment as Vizier. He speaks little when in the presence of other members of the Divan, and even to the Vizier he says only so much. Instead, he listens closely and with great care to all that transpires around and about the grand general, and leaves from his presence only at his command.
Though not terribly imposing, his quiet persistence has been unsettling to some in the past, as even when met with one's gaze he only stares silently back at them from behind a strange and foreboding mask.
Appearance
Tall and lithe, and always dressed in apparel not unlike those of the deep desert wanderers. Never before the eyes of others is his face uncovered to be seen by others, nor any of his skin where lines of tribal ink decorated his flesh. Always is he seen equipped with many weapons befitting one of guile and surprise than strength and brutality. Likely too was it that there were many others he carried, hidden from the eye.
Skills and Abilities
Guile: Laru'Dahl is exceptionally light on his feet, and can move in complete silence - so long as it is slowly. He has the ability to hold his breath for a considerable amount of time, allowing him to go completely undetected in sometimes very close circumstances.
Magic: Though far from a sorcerer of great power, he is able to employ modest magical feats to aid in his endeavours.
Focus: There is hardly a moment that goes by where his mind is not in motion, where his eyes and ears are not observant. For as quiet as he is, as careful as he is also. Ever is he cautious of the dangers every place, every scenario produces. As the grand general's person guard and assassin, this skill is perhaps his most useful, and deadly. Though he is not clairvoyant, he has fooled more than one in the past.
Intelligence: An individual of sound mind, Laru'Dahl is well educated in not only various forms of combat and self defence, but also academia. He is not one of scholarly pursuits, or one of abnormal capacity, but his ability to learn and immerse himself into foreign environments has made him invaluable as an assassin.

Personality
Though quiet, he gives off an air of patient silence rather than frustrated intolerance. It is not that he despises speaking with others, only that to do so invites weakness and reveals - in his opinion - too much. Even a cordial hello. Only to his immediate superiors does he answer to vocally, and even then, with as much brevity as can be allowed.
Loyal beyond measure, there is no task he will not accept willingly. He seems committed to serving the grand general.
