About Fahim Demir

One of the many Alkenstar war orphans, Serhan grew up as a pickpocket on the streets of the Alkenstar City. His story might have ended there, as so many do, if not for “Doc” Demir. One fateful day, Serhan slipped a hand into the man’s change purse, but the adventurer was quicker and grabbed the boy’s arm with one hand, while the other unsheathed his dagger. Instinctively, Serhan drew the man’s pistol from its holster and the two of them stood on the street for a moment, pistol at belly and knife at throat. Then the old Pathfidner started laughing. From that day forward, “Doc” showed Serhan another way: the way of the gun. After a time, “Doc” started introducing Serhan as his son, and when the old man died on a mission, Serhan joined the Pathfinder Society. For most of this life, Serhan has known nothing but serving the Decemvirate. As far as he is concerned, “Doc” and the Pathfinders are the reason he is still alive when so many of the urchins he knew are dead, and he will do anything to further their cause. His preferred weapon is the musket and he tries to find high ground at all times. His vision is second-to-none and while he is not particularly brave (bravery is an excellent way to get yourself killed) he is loyal to the Pathfinders, as individuals and as an organization. Yaren, his chosen musket, is one of the two items that he has left to remember Doc. His disposition is, in all ways, that of the sniper: he is always waiting, looking to the shot, even when no one needs shooting. His attitude and sense-of-humor tend to be fatalistic, dark, but he believes in the pathfinders and their mission, despite all that.
