Personality and Appearance[edit]
Quick, Cunning, Brash, Unethical, and supremely confident. No one knows quite how Zuberi came to be this way during his stint in the Spiral Academy, especially with his background. Nonetheless, he finds few equals - certainly none his age - in getting the job done for his house, and he is valued for it.Calel Zuberi knows this, and relishes it. His newfound status with House Ragara gains him the respect and renown he is sure that he so richly deserves, gains the economic and political leverage to amass his wealth, and best of all, gives him both the leeway and opportunities to go out and do whatever he pleases.
Wealth, fame, respect, women, thrills, challenge... It's all at Zuberi's fingertips, and he pursues it all very aggressively. As for Thorns? It's the best opportunity yet.
Appearance summary
With the complexion of a Harborhead native, and the elemental essence of water flowing strong. Calel Zuberi is possibly the darkest man you've ever seen. Particularly among the numbers of the Earth aspected House Ragara, and Dynastic culture at large; he simply sticks out. This doesn't appear to bother him - Rather, Zuberi seems to enjoy it. He wears flat blacks as dark as his skin, both on his loose silk shirt and pants, and a pure, seemingly featureless black jade breastplate worn dramatically over it. Their depth is further accentuated with stark contrast by pure, almost blinding whites. A shining white silken cloak, an oversized white jade pendant, white jade ear peircings and rings, and a thick, many-wrapped white sash and girdle. His massive, biceps and shoulders are bare, but his forearms are clad in a beautiful set of white jade hearthstone bracers. Tied and hanging from his right hip are a pair of great, shining black hands - his black Jade Smashfists. And on the left, a revolting little black onyx demon statue, hanging tied from it's neck with a rope of braided white silk.
He even seems to take great pains to keep his teeth just as white themselves, quite apparent since he's always smiling and laughing. It's not a very inviting laughter though - the cool lazy gaze, the too-easy demeanor, and his oft tilted bald head somehow paint him as anything but genuine. Compounding his impression yet further is his prodigious height and imposingly large fighters frame. He appears dangerous by many different ways.
It would be shocking if anyone would ever feel compelled to talk to him. But clearly he does not care - he revels in himself.
