Ajaman was a warrior of the Qahtan tribe who roamed the deserts of Anauroch with his fellow tribesmen during the mid–14th century DR.[1]

Your words have pierced me deeper than a raider's arrow. I shall die with your name upon my lips.
— Ajaman, joking to Ruha shortly after their marriage.[1]

Description[]

He had a rugged appearance, with a lean, muscular build and skin that had been weathered by years traveling under At'ar the Merciless. He kept a thick moustache that was common among the mature men of the Bedine.[1]

Personality[]

Ajaman was a good-natured and measured man with a strong sense of duty and tradition.[1]

Abilities[]

Having grown up as well-trained warrior, Ajaman was skilled with the bow.[2]

Relationships[]

Ajaman was the son of the Qahtani sheikh by his second wife.[1] He had a young brother Kadumi who was well on his way to becoming a mature warrior of the Qahtan.[3]

For a very brief time, Ajaman was married to Ruha, a sorceress of the Mtair Dhafir tribe. Like everyone else in both their tribes, Ajaman was unaware that his wife was a spellcaster. While the two were only married for a matter of two days, they formed a connection quickly and according to Ruha,[1] truly had every opportunity to fall in love with one another.[4]

History[]

In the Year of the Turret, 1360 DR, two days after his union with Ruha, Ajaman was tasked to watch over his people at night. He took sentry atop El Ma'ra Dat-ur Ojhogo but was struck down by a bolt of magical energy cast by some Zhentarim spellcaster working with asabi mercenaries.[2] His body was later buried by his brother Kadumi and widow Ruha,[5] who kept his jambiya with her for quite some time.[6]
