Anwat al-Makkar was a skilled sa'luk and sheikh of the House of Dhi'b tribe in the High Desert of west Zakhara around 1367 DR.[note 1][1]
Personality[]
Sly and cunning, Anwat was usually able to outmaneuver his enemies.[1]
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."[1]
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.[1]
He organized a series of fortresses scattered throughout the Range of the Marching Camels[note 2] to serve as treasure vaults. These fortresses were rumored to be hidden with magic.[1]
Relationships[]
The sheikh allied himself with various clans over the years to suit his needs.[1]

Notes[]
- ↑ Canon material does not provide dating for the Al-Qadim campaign setting. For the purposes of this wiki only, the current date for Al-Qadim products is assumed to be 1367 DR.
- ↑ The source does not specifically mention the Range of the Marching Camels, but it is assumed these are the mountains where the fortresses were located as there are no other mountain ranges found in the southern regions of the High Desert.
