Description
Anwat was an old wizened man by 1367 DR. His gaunt frame earned him the nickname Tarkib al-Azam which translated from midani to mean "skeleton."

Activities
Anwat rode with Kori al-Zafiri to depose the sultan of Tajar. He organized several clans, numbering around 200 individuals each, to raid caravans passing through the south and south-central regions of the desert. Many of these caravans departed Tajar which was under the rule of Kori's son, Ali al-Hadd.

He organized a series of fortresses scattered throughout the Range of the Marching Camels to serve as treasure vaults. These fortresses were rumored to be hidden with magic.
