((Little later than planned, but here we arrrre~ Little lengthy;; ))
Name: Sadiq Adnan.
Country of Origin: Turkey.
Gender Male.
Age: 32 years.
Height: 6'2”
Weight: 190 pounds.
Appearance: Sadiq, with his Mediterranean heritage, has a rich copper skin-tone gold-glinted brown eyes and short dark brown hair. The hair generally the same length all around, short bangs framing his forehead and tapering down into trimmed sideburns that run the length of his ears. He also has a short, pretty well maintained goatee that leads into stubble tracing his jawline in both directions, and a curious double hair curl at the base of his neck.
His main outift consists of, from toe to head: black leather knee-high boots with the tip curled upward that he occasionally polishes to a nice shine, and puffy white cotton pants which are tucked into the boots that have a high waist deep red cummerbund-like waistband that comes to above his navel. The only thing covering his suitably toned chest a long robe, the majority of it being the same deer red as his waistband, but the sleeves being white. The cuffs, on either sleeve, are overly large and the same red color, the bottom edges trimmed with decorative gold colored designs in a similar manner to that which line the front of his robe. The cuffs also have a quaint crescent moon-star-reverse-moon design that repeats all around. The outfit is then completed with a plain white mask that covers from just above his eyebrows down to just above the tip of his nose and his cheekbones, and a black three point pirate hat with a few large and plume-y feathers, and a curtain-like cream colored cloth draping all around the back of his neck. As accessories to this, he wear two ring on his left hand ring and pinky fingers. One of which is a onyx and yellow gold ring indicating that he is the head of his household back in his country, and the other is a plain yellow gold band that matching the plain gold bracelet he wears on the same side wrist.
He occasionally found wearing something a little more intricate for when fancier dress is required, but it's generally the same as his normal outfit, save for the extra gold detailing on the sleeves of the robe that resemble feathers, a gold colored cotton hood to his robe and 14K clasps with set blue cabochons on each end to keep it closed and covering his bare chest.
As if his clothing didn't indicate him being from the middle east, his weaponry certainly pointed to it. On his person at any given time was one of a set of two scimitars, one silver plated and the other gold plated. Each of the hilts were simply designed with two spirals on either side, one side pointing upward and the other down, as the handle was made of two different kinds of wood, one more of a cherry mahogany, and the other a dark walnut, with the bottom being a simple curl of either gold or silver respectively.
Aside from his swords, Sadiq owns a very old flintlock dueling pistol, seventeen inches in length with an intricately molding head figure at the base of the handle. He will only used this as a last resort, no matter how many times he shows it off. He thinks of it more for looks than for use and most definitely prefers the feel of a scimitar in his hand than a pistol.
Other than his clothing, and weaponry, he carries a small black lather drawstring pouch that he never lets anyone mess with, only because it contains the last things he has of his mother. A pair of obsidian earrings, a soft black scarf and small wooden flute she used to play for him.

Personality: As easily as Sadiq would have you believe that the only qualities to him were fun-loving, proud, a bit lazy, and a bit crazy, there's a lot more he hides from the world. In his eyes, the true him would seem weak to everyone, even though he has been reassured against this a multitude of times.
The 'real' Sadiq, as he states, is a simple man who, due to a rough upbringing and many things throughout his life going wrong, grew up hating anything and everything. However, with age, people grow wiser which is what causes the 'real' Sadiq to be casual, caring and kind. He is sweet with kids and women, though he flirts shamelessly, kind to all living things that don't intend to do him harm. Though he rarely shows any of this, trying to maintain his bad-ass facade, some of the traits will occasionally slip into his demeanor.
Although his mask is what tends to draw the air of mystery to him, he has sense of an old man, gone through so much in his life and is still alive to tell the tale-- even if he isn't that old. He treats the younger generation as if he were their mentor, though his way of showing this is a bit offset from the norm. He'll teach them and then test them in weird ways, making sure they how to take care of themselves and others, and then be proud when he succeeds in such.
Though, through the laziness, through the old man in him, he is more than willing to blindly follow a leader whom he has faith in. One of the most loyal members of a crew, he could never be found disobeying an order, no matter what it may be.
History: Sadiq's past is a sad one that often has him sighing on rainy days or when he has a good amount of alone time. There were good and bad times, but generally all that comes to mind are the bad. He tries to surround himself with people so he can keep himself from the depressing remembrance, sometimes it can't be helped.
Once born, and raised by his mother for a full year, Sadiq's father had decided that her usefulness had past once she'd bore him a son, so he killed her off in front of the young Sadiq. After that, he was raised by his father, for fighting skills and war tactics, and his father's seven harem girls whom would sing Turkish lullabies and stories to get him to sleep every night. And they'd do it again when he woke up screaming each night. Things continued in this way for thirteen years when his father did not return from a war.
At thirteen, he was orphaned, but due to his culture, he simply became man of the house, inherited all the lands his father owned and also the harem became his own. Instead of sleeping with them, now that he had the right, he simply became closer friends with them. Chatting and spending time together rather than being intimate.
At eighteen, the older members of the harem were dropping out like flies, depressing Sadiq to the point of him bidding the rest farewell, packing some relics of his mother, his father's swords, pistol and his family ring, and running away to go and find something else to do with his life. He was sick of the responsibility that his father dropped on his shoulders, so he simply gave it all up and got out.
He got involved with pirating to simply be able to survive. A lot of close calls on starvation and even more close calls with people attempting to steal from him, but, thanks to his father's teachings, he's managed to survive to the ripe age of thirty-two, where he now lives, pirating his days away, and generally having fun.
