DESCRIPTION: | Ashur is a young looking man of obvious Arabic decent. He's fairly tall, standing at an six feet, but he's very lanky. Though it's all muscle, Ashur only weighs at most one hundred and seventy pounds at any given time. Generally he never lets his pitch black hair grow past his ears. His skin is the tan color of the Syrian desert of his birth just a shade or two lighter than his brown eyes. He's typically seen in nothing more than a cheap winter coat, old Levi's, hiking boots, and a tee. |
BACKGROUND: | Ashur Amini was born Elijah Mohammed Amini to the Ruwallah Bedouin Clan of Syria. His father Man'nah and mother Ari-Eil were both kinfolk descendents of the ancient Silent Striders who emigrated out of Egypt following the Tribe's decimation and exil by Sutekh the Vampire. Although they were of a Bedouin clan, like many Bedouins of Syria, the Aminis had taken up a settled life generations before Ashur's birth on the outskirts of Damascus where they raised a flock of goats. By Ashur's time, the ranch was run by his mother, and his father held a job in the government of Syria.
Ashur, or then Elijah, was raised in Damascus, and his life was overall a normal one. Syria was one of the more Westernized nations after all in terms of economical aspirations were concerned. He grew up on a desert ranch just outside the city and national capital Damascus where his family had raised goes since Byzantine times centuries ago. His mother Ari-Eil was charged with the running of the ranch. A woman running an estate was perhaps a controversial affair, but it had been necessary since the 1950s when not only did the number of sedentary Bedouins triple in Syria, bit it also became -necessary- as the population grew and the space for nomadic peoples and their herds dwindled considerably. Those that had maintained land since before then for their herds had an advantage at the time.. one that required controversial change of their own to survive..
Ashur's initial life on the ranch was fairly in step and normal for a settled Bedouin child.. Or at least it was until when he was old enough to comprehend the fact that his constantly visiting relatives were more than just traditional Bedouins but Garou. Even still, Ashur lived a fairly uneventful life. His parents were proud Kinfolk from long and strong lines that lead far back in time and place to ancient Khem from which the tribe initially heralded. And accordingly, they raised their sons, for Ashur was the second and youngest, to be both proud Bedouins and Silent Strider kin.
While it had been a generation at least since either line of Kin had breeded true, the Aminis made up for that. To date, all their children have bred true and experience The Change. Their oldest child and son Sargon was the first. Named after their ancient Assyrian mortal heritage, Sargon experienced his first change when Ashur was only seven. Then he really got to experience what was special about his family.. if only because Sargon changed at home his first time under the full moon.
Ashur's older sister Eiline made the change her first time three years later when he was ten years old, under the cresent moon. It wasn't until then that he began to worry that he would be the first of his parent's legacy to not bring great honor by taking the change. After all, Sargon had only been eleven and Eiline twelve when they'd changed. The months and ultimately years following Ashur's twelfth birthday were some of his darkest and most frustrated years of his life.
Still the Amini family persisted on their age old ranch outside Damascus, though Ashur saw less and less of his siblings as time wore on. They were indoctrinated further and further into their True Heritage.. and that fact only made him more and more bitter. Then things only got worse.. When he was seventeen, his family farm was destroyed in a Wyrm assault as it was one of the few Strider strongholds in the area around Damascus. Their defeat left the family in ruins, and their decimation was completed by the first echoes of what has lead to a near full Civil War in Syria.
Ultimately his parents fled both to save themselves and their legacy as highly Pure Bred kinfolk by Silent Strider standards. And though they were reluctant to give the West their loyalty, the Aminis packed up and made the official move to Portland, Oregon in 2011 where Elijah's father got a job as an electrician. Elijah's day finally came shortly after their move.. and to this day he believe it was the cause of the rage which brought about his change. Ultimately the young garou slaughtered have of his senior class before he was put down and brought under wing by the local People.. He couldn't help but feel twisted that such blood shedding was the proudest moment of his life. He was proven true at last, like his brother and sister.
Elijah returned the Arab Penninsula following his first change and only returned two months ago with the Remembrance name of Ashur. It was an unusual and unorthodox choice, given their penchant for Egyptian, not Assyrian, names.. but Elijah was both Ragabash and proud of his family's history. Ashur spent his first month home as a True Born with his parents.. the last he knew he'd have in awhile. Then he took up the road and began making regular trips between the established caerns of British Columbia, Oregon, and Seattle.
Rumors of a new caern reached his ears long before the opening of the moon bridge of the Hunters Hunted sept's caern. He knew long ago, for instance, that the new sept was supposedly to have invited Wyldfire as their caern totem. He spent weeks scouting the area outside the bawn.. watching the new sept. Now that they are official with an open and accessible moon bridge, Ashur has taken it upon himself to meet and greet the sept.. welcoming the into the Garou Nation of the Northwest.. |
