Appearance
Hakim is a medium-height, tan-skinned native of Sheng-Lao with dark green eyes and his hair tied up into a bun. A strict diet and workout regiment have turned Hakim's body into something cut out of stone.
Backstory
Voodoo Child
Hakim is the youngest of three grandchildren to Taijin Monastery founder and civil rights activist, Rykozuma Taijin. When Hakim's parents had left him and his sisters, they were relocated to live with their grandfather. It was at the Taijin Monastery that Hakim attempted to find some semblance of peace and belonging, but often struggled to; often fighting, pranking, and being an all-around nuisance to those around him. Hakim believed he was destined to be more like his father than anything and fell hard into the same substance abuse his father did. It was his self-destructive tendencies and rebellious behavior that earned Hakim the nick Voodoo Child from his grandfather's peers. Especially from the Yoshida family.
Hakim's life came to a head when Hiro Yoshida, longtime critic and bully of Hakim, passed a law that forbade the possession and use of a number of illicit drugs. The passing of this policy happened to occur the same day that Hakim was caught with powdered, yellow Locust Dust. Hakim's arrest and the timing of the passing of the policy meant that Hakim was banished from Sheng-Lao. Hakim, and his wife Tuunbaaq, left Sheng-Lao never to be seen again until the Sheng-Lao Riot of 1731. When Ryko passed away four years later, Hakim and Tuunbaaq were not allowed to return for his funeral.
Brighter than the Sun
When Tuunbaaq was discharged and returned to Sheng-Lao disgraced and homeless, she was given residence at the Taijin Monastery by Ryko. It was there that she often butted heads with Hakim. His lack of discipline and childish behavior irritated Tuunbaaq who was between manic bouts of depression at the time. But over time they found some semblance of a relationship in their differences. Their shared cigarettes under the moonlight turned into sneaking out into Wei-Tao, then into romantic dinners, and eventually marriage. Tuunbaaq taught Hakim how to take responsibility for himself, while he smoothed out Tuunbaaq's rough edges. Together, they saw the injustices that plague Sheng-Lao, and the Alliance, and would go on to found the Fireflies. Uttering an old adage that Ryko would read to Hakim when he was younger, "Those in darkness, need only look for the light."
