Age: 24 Standard

Description: Height: 5' 7''. Weight: 170 Lbs. Complexion: Dark/Olive. Eyes: Brown. Hair: Black, thick and straight, military cut to regulation length, clean-shaven. Wiry and tough, Shah wears whatever uniform is appropriate. Off duty clothing is modern 20-something fashions in blacks and grays. He always carries his Kaga when on duty and almost always when off duty.

Homeworld: Tarikkas/Hub

Family: None

History: Abandoned as an infant on the streets of Paratha, Tarikka's 4th largest city, Shah grew up in an orphanage and survived by his wits and skill with a Kaga. Joining a street gang as a teen, he rose rapidly through the ranks and became an accomplished burglar. Unfortunately, he made too much of a name for himself and was arrested shortly after his 17th birthday. After spending nearly a year in a juvenile facility (his only formal education), he was offered the chance to have his sentence commuted by enlisting in the Peaceforce. During basic training, instructors noticed his skills and recommended him for Commando duty. A resourceful and tenacious soldier, Shah is perfect for Operation Torch. As a result of the Torch Teams' successes, Shah has recently been advanced to Subaltern, a promotion he is not entirely comfortable with.

Psychological Profile: Shah is a street kid looking for the family he's never had. The military is the only thing that has provided the structured environment he needs. He is sensitive about his past and more than sensitive about his family history (or lack thereof). He has been known to fight over insults.

Medical History: Shah as no known medical conditions, allergies, or sensitivities. One large patch of bleached skin on lower back where a gang tattoo was removed. No major scars but numerous smaller ones.

Downtime: Shah is nearly fanatic about his daily routine. Peaceforce doctrine states that the soldier's body is his primary weapon and soldiers live or die by their weapons. Shah begins his day with an hour of Sonnin Kaga practice, normally wearing Virtual Reality goggles that store over 100 different routines. Upon finishing, he performs the standard Peaceforce PT regimen, substituting calisthenics if equipment is lacking. His cool down consists of shining his boots and a brief shower. Before retiring, Shah fieldstrips, cleans, and re-assembles all of his weapons. When finished, he will do the same for the rest of the team members (if they allow).
