Appearance:

A tanned and unkempt man who stands tall at around 6 feet. He usually wears a turban with a goldenbrown feather standing vertically on the front. Talhar is used to wearing ragged clothing although he has a distinct preference for a silken outfit that keeps him light on his feet and grants him agile movements. Commonly seen sporting a multitude of kukri daggers or short scimitars which are best used in fighting close-combat battles in close quarters where not much room is granted so that those with larger weaponry are at a disadvantage. Those weapons, his outfit and his eyepatch would be the things that distinguish him from most others. He almost never uses or wears ranged weapons like throwing daggers, nor guns or rifles. Mainly because he is just plain terrible at utilizing them.

History: Talhar is a former bandit of the South Blue where he terrorized random small settlements and villages with the aide of his fellow brigands. He was never a leader-figure, always kept himself out of the spotlight but made sure that nobody would be able to question his allegiance or effort. Considering he never felt as one of them or connected to the bunch of misfits, that was quite the act that he had going on. On the day that the raiders' group were drinking their newly made 'treasure' in one of the taverns at a portcity, everything changed for Talhar. He had went upstairs to spend some time with one of the bargirls when suddenly he heard a lot of ruckus going on downstairs. Not paying it much attention he went back to minding his own business but after the rowdyness faded, not a single sound could be heard from where he was. Now he was a bit worried.

Usually the band would pummel or kill anyone stupid enough to mess with them and then get back to their own business, but not this time. After the fight nobody seemed to make a sound. Talhar quickly got dressed, drew 2 kukri daggers and sneaked downstairs. A few steps down the stairs he ducked and peered into the taverne. What he saw came as a great shock, not because everybody was knocked out or worse, in some cases. But because they were defeated. He had always thought nobody could mess with them and this was quite the eye-opener considering he didn't saw a single body or corpse that wasn't one of his own group.

" What happend here? " He asked after hurrying down and kneeling next to a semi-conscious bandit.

" .... Pirates. " The man muttered quietly before losing consciousness.

Talhar ran outside and saw a band of obvious pirates walking away cheerfully, talking and laughing bolsterously. Quickly striding behind them, Talhar seemed ready to attack them from behind and when he was in melee range, it happened.

" Oi, are you the guys who took out my group ? "

One voice rang from the front of the pirate group.

" Not all of us, I was the only one who did the fighting. Why? Want to take revenge? "

The voice was dripping with mockery and contempt at Talhar, who for some reason was trembling in his knees and his hands were shaky as beads of sweat rolled over his thick eyebrows into the corner of his eyes.

" No ... I want to join you. "

After a long and deep talk with the crew's captain, Talhar was accepted and joined the ranks of the pirates, not even glancing back at the taverne where his near-dead former 'crew' was left behind.

After sailing, fighting and living alongside the people of this crew, Talhar felt more connected and 'one of them' than he ever felt with the bandits. After searching for a way to aide his mates on the ship, it became obvious he was gifted at cartography and melee combat. And luck fell upon him once more as he found a Devil Fruit on an island. Claiming it for his own before anyone else got a chance to even look at it, he ate it and gained its power.

Personality: Relatively introvert considering he still hasn't found his turn in the crew but in the right atmosphere and if liquor is involved, Talhar opens up more easily. While on the job he is focused and steadyhanded, since he's been through quite alot before setting sail there isn't that much that would shock or stun him, or so he thought. The wonders and dangers of the Grand Line are stunning to behold to say the least. But overall, he's a rather self-sufficient, get-it-together type of guy.
