*'''SEXUAL EXPERIENCE :''' Karim loves sleeping around but hates settling down. He's a heterosexual man with love for young girls, mature women, and anything in between. Beasts don't interest him at all. Generally speaking, he loves being in control, even if it means getting a little bit rough.

Sneaking around and ranged weaponry don't suit him at all, and he has little to no talent for damaging his foes with magic.

He can be a bit callous regarding his enemies but doesn't enjoy hurting the innocent or the weak. In addition to despising those who do, he believes that sometimes the world's biggest criminals are tyrannical politicians, lawmakers, and kings. He prefers to avoid crime, but due to being an outcast and an orphan, he sometimes has no choice and will not hesitate to turn to the dark side if he feels he has no other choice. At the end of the day, being a mercenary and making money triumphs all, along with protecting those closest to him.
