Advanced description: Rasheer is a Cathay-Raht Khajiit, born in the northern deserts of Elsweyr when both twin moons were waxing. As a result, he doesn't look like a typical Suthay-Raht Khajiit, who are lithe and sneaky. Rasheer is as muscular as an Orc and stands as tall as one. His jaw is slightly thicker than a typical Suthay-Raht, and his voice is deeper compared to the rich, purring rasp that lighter breeds of khajiit have.
His ears are long, with one of them containing a V scar. Numerous other scars pepper his body, showing a lifetime of constant fighting. His fur is short, and is a dark brown. Bands of darker markings go down his neck and back, ending at the end of his tail. His throat, chest, and belly are a light cream color, and his dark gray hair is long and flows down the back of his neck. His most noticeable characteristic other than his physique is are his eyes, which are a fiery amber.
Tell Me About Yourself:
Homeland: Elsweyr
Personality: Rasheer is a rather pointed figure, and he is usually blunt and to the point on all his dealings. Rasheer prefers to not dance around subjects as a result, and that may make people think that he is humorless and brutish. However, Rasheer knows when to employ tact depending on the situation. If he can get away with doing things the quick way though, he probably will.
Despite his rough personality, the burly khajiit has a surprisingly sharp mind and an even sharper tongue when he gets irritated. Those who irritate Rasheer, or if he gets frustrated, can expect a snarky, sarcastic comment from the khajiit. However, Rasheer prefers to be largely silent if he can help it, and only when he gets extremely frustrated does he draw his tongue or blade. In a situation he feels at peace in, he can actually seem serene, or at least calm.
For a khajiit warrior of savage roots, Rasheer is surprisingly insightful, if not for the fact that he learned most lessons the hard way. He is able to read a situation fairly accurately, and when he acts upon his instinct, he is rarely wrong. Rasheer doesn’t blindly rush into things, but when he sets his mind to something, it is difficult to convince him otherwise.
Rasheer has two sides to him when it comes to ethics and battle. Although he isn’t a paladin in any sense of the word, he does have ethics, and does sympathize with those who have been wronged. Rasheer might even offer his help in that case. On the other hand, he has a cold detachment to those he has little respect for. In a battle, he aims to kill. Holding back a killing blow can make it dangerous for him, and mercy isn’t something he is likely to do.
Rasheer is an immigrant, and is well versed in Khajiiti culture and beliefs. He speaks in the third person, and his thick, Ta’agra accent is very noticeable. Traveling around Nirn has expanded his knowledge of outside lands though, and he is by no means ignorant of Skyrim’s current events, especially the dragons.
Likes: Mead, Sweets and pastries, meat, hunting, coin, honor, and fighting.
Dislikes: Moon Sugar, Skooma, Particularly twisted individuals, being questioned, Thalmor, and foolhardiness.

Tell Me About Your Past:
Bio/History: Rasheer is a rather mysterious individual. He doesn’t like talking about his past much. From what can be gathered, at a young age he was once part of a war-like northern Khajiit tribe. This tribe raided southern settlements, until Imperial forces put it down. Survivors of the tribe were imprisoned, and many died. Rasheer survived on his wits, and made a name for himself in the sugar cane plantations as a vicious prison fighter. This attracted the attention of a powerful drug lord named Dro’nassa, who liked to collect experienced and exotic individuals as his body guards. Dro’nassa paid for Rasheer’s freedom, leaving the Cathay-Raht Khajiit indebted to him. With both his warrior heritage and formal training at his belt, Rasheer became a dangerous adversary of any who made an enemy of the sugar cat.
Rasheer became a cold hearted beast, until a khajiit servant girl managed to put him on the right path for a while. They secretly married, and Rasheer slowly became less morally ambiguous, much to the irritation of Dro’nassa.
When the Thalmor came to Elsweyr with their falsifying moon prophecy, Rasheer learned the truth due to Dro’nassa’s monetary connections with the high elves. Fully aware that Elsweyr may become a pawn of xenophobic foreigners, Rasheer tried to secretly plan a coup of Dro’nassa and even overthrow The Mane. Doing so would weaken the hold of the Thalmor, and allow imperial rule to reclaim Elsweyr. Rasheer managed to gain some followers, namely northern tribesman, but also southern Khajiit and even Blade spies. Their coup was discovered early however, and the clan mothers and Dro’nassa managed to gather the forces/money to halt Rasheer’s campaign while The Mane brought the common people against Rasheer. With a crushed coup and failed assassination attempt, Rasheer had to retreat, and to his haunting shame, his wife was murdered as a result.
It was assumed that Rasheer hid out in the wilderness afterward or was killed. All records of him in Elsweyr halt, but rumors of a large, muscular Khajiit matching his description abound in Cyrodill during the Great War, where he may have acted as a mercenary for Imperial forces.
For whatever reason, perhaps because old enemies are catching up to him, Rasheer is now in Skyrim and has been in Skyrim for a couple years. He acts as a common caravan guard, lacking the wealth and gear he once had due to his exile. The caravan leaders may know of his identity or not, but they have made no move to bring up his past. Rasheer seems to have his own personal reasons for being in Skyrim, but time will tell what those reasons exactly are.
