You grew up in the sweltering expanse of the Djinn Sultanate, where water is life but information is power. In a culture dominated by the riddles of the Djinn and the shadows of the Nisfalhawk thieves' guild, you learned that the truth is never given freely—it is sold. You are not merely a spy; you are a broker. You understand that a secret whispered in an oasis teahouse can topple a kingdom in the north. Whether you worked for a noble house, a Djinn patron, or for yourself, you know how to listen, how to lie, and most importantly, how to negotiate the price of silence.
