Traits
Student of Faith - While you have personally dedicated your life to a single deity, you study all religions and mortal faiths. Upon hearing that the town of Sandpoint recently completed a cathedral dedicated to the six deities most popular in the area, you had to see the place for yourself, and have arrived in time for the consecration of this holy edifice. Because of your strong faith and broad range of study, you cast all cure spells at +1 caster level, and whenever you channel energy, you gain a +1 trait bonus to the save DC of your channeled energy.
Sacred Touch - You were exposed to a potent source of positive energy as a child, perhaps by being born under the right cosmic sign, or maybe because one of your parents was a gifted healer. As a standard action, you may automatically stabilize a dying creature merely by touching it.
Flame of the Dawn - You have been raised to view yourself as a blade in the service of the Goddess Sarenrae, or you have taken on that duty for yourself. Whenever you score a critical hit with a scimitar, you deal 2 additional points of fire damage to your target.
Drawback
Mark of Slavery - You were enslaved for part or all of your youth, and marked as such with a brand or tattoo that still reminds you of how you were punished whenever you failed to do what you should. Whenever you fail a skill check, you take a –2 penalty on any skill check or attack roll you attempt before the end of your next turn unless it is a part of retrying the failed skill check.

Background
--------------------
Born in the city of Katapesh, Saif was a slave since before he understood the concept. Forced to do chores and then hard labor, his strength built up but his lack of access to decent food kept him ill on occasion. He was traded and sold as a simple commodity until he was ten, when he was taken in by a cleric of Sarenrae.
Thought still a slave, the cleric, one Sahar Amirmoez, she began his studies within the faith. She was a hard mistress, beating him when he would step out of line even a little, but slowly he bagan to not only accept his fate as a member of Sarenrae's flock, but also revel in it.
And thus, as he got older he began to have visions of his patron. During one fitful sleep, he awoke to see his hand aflame and took it as a sign. He had been bathed in her light since his youth, and now he had been bathed in her fire.
He also began to learn the healing arts from Sahar, finding he had not only a knack for it, but innate power as well. When a young girl had been injured to near death, Sahar passed her over, thinking her too far gone and bidding her parents to take her to a shrine of Pharasma. Gobsmacked that his master in both his life and his faith would be so cruel, he laid his hands upon the child bringing her back from the brink. Proud of him and seeing first hand the power of his faith made manifest, she released him from servitude.
He took what he had and began to wander the world, arriving in Absalom, then Andoran. An agreement to work as a ship's healer for the trade barge Schiav Liberat soon found him in Magnimar. There, he preached for a short time until word of a new temple being dedicated to not one but several deities was being built in the town called Sandpoint caught his attention, particularly when he learned that the temple had a shrine to Sarenrae within. And that it had yet to be consecrated.
He has now arrived in the small town, easily identifiable as an outsider due to his (almost flamboyant) dress and looks. But he has yet to recieve any out and out hatred, so he's relaxing, hoping to enjoy the coming festival and praying that he may talk to this Father Zantus to see if he could take part in the consecration ceremony, or at least it's shrine to his Goddess.
