About & History:
Shaheerazad was born under a Caliph's rule in the deepest part of the desert within the Lower Kingdom (near modern day Libya). She was sought after by the Caliph for a wife, and in that time, her father, a servant of the Caliph, could not refuse him... So Shaheer was removed from her family, taken into the Caliph's home, and trained from the time she could reason to be a Caliph's wife.
At her time of age, she was married to him and within a year, she bore him his first son. By the age of 21, Shaheerazad had bore the Caliph 9 children and survived all the birth's, something not heard of in those times. After the last childbirth however, Shaheerazad met one of the Egyptian dignitaries, who was less than pleased about the confirmation that the Caliph had forced a pureblood Egyptian female to be his wife.
Though Shaheer never wanted for anything material, she neither knew love nor happiness. To place "all things right" the visitor, whom she knew as Timket Vashran, killed off the mingled blooded children, the guards and the Caliph, leaving only her sitting in a pool of blood... mostly her children's blood. This timid child, now, found an inner strength she knew not she had, and lashed out at him.
This only caused Timket to grin and embrace her. She was Vashran now, in his eyes, but enemy in her own. She inherited only the natural gifts of supernatural speed and strength and inheriting upon her embrace. Though Timket tried to calm her, change her feelings, and keep her as the Caliph had, all to himself, she rebelled and and ran. In doing so, she found an Amenophis male and betrayed her children's and her husband's murderer.
Finding that Shaheerazad had been embraced by a Vashran, Mahketsu Amenophis gave her two options: death or training as an Amenophis and taking the Amenophis name. She chose death, but Mahketsu refused and asked her to wait for 1 year before making her decision final. She finally agreed and after a year.... after 2... after a decade, she still had not asked to be released from life. She had, in fact, found a way to aid her new family in the desert, while perfecting her new life: diplomacy. She has only used her inheriting ability once, though it was actually not intentional... She gained the ability to Mimick... And now... Shaheerazad knows... that thought to be mistake was something condoned by the Gods and Goddesses...
Now with the Authurians trying to overtake Egypt and Mahketsu missing, Shaheer has used this ability to get herself to what she hopes to be... safety...
