Fareed al-Abaasi is a nomadic Farfolk, heralding from the Rassid culture. He was born in the region of Atlas, though at sea. For most of his life, he has sailed on trading vessels, venturing from city to city with both his parents, getting a taste for the realms. As he grew, he was taught more about his culture and the lands it came from by his parents, and taught how to fish and properly cook by his father. His mother instructed him on religion, and influenced many of his religious and spiritual beliefs, as well as given some important lessons on brokering. Unfortunately, his parents would die relatively early, but peaceful, deaths. They died in bed and at peace in their 120’s, and this would cause Fareed to venture out and experience the realm for himself.
