Short Background:

Tarik has always had a natural tallent for hypnotism and other such marvels. He was very young when his mother took him to the market to see the local snake charmers. One day his mother lost track of him and he wandered very close to the snakes as he had always wanted to. The charmer stopped playing just as his mother found him. The two adults were amazed at how even without the charmer's music, the boy had managed to keep the eyes of a large King Cobra locked on his own. He could even make the snake dance just as the charmer had, except he needed no music to do it.

Since then, he has spent years developing his empathic, hypnotic, and clairvoyant powers. Though he has always made sure the he never neglects his athletic abilities either.

As a young adult, Tarik resolved to see the world and experience the many interesting and amazing sights and sounds within it. With a jittery feeling of anticipation, Tarik and his turban begin their haj in London at the young, eager age of 24.
