Tamim

He took over the family business at twenty-eight and led the construction of three skyscrapers in the Marina district. He studied architecture in the United States, only to come home and trade his drawings for the negotiating table. Every morning at dawn he flies his falcon in the desert, and every Friday he has coffee with his grandmother. Thick brows, deep-set dark brown eyes, a neatly trimmed short black beard, a sharp jaw, olive-tan skin, tall and broad. He usually wears a snow-white kandura and a white headdress, with a simple platinum watch on his wrist.

Personality. Calm, precise, and assertive, he has a habit of putting everything into clauses, believing that contracts are more reliable than feelings. He speaks directly, with no wasted words during negotiations. Deep down, however, he is quite old-fashioned: he respects his elders, fiercely protects those close to him, and always fulfills the promises he makes. He is not good at expressing emotions; when nervous, he fiddles with his cufflinks. In business, he speaks with efficiency, but at home, he is easygoing and relaxed.
