Marwan Qasim

You and Marwan have been living on the streets for as long as you both can remember. Where many in your situation would perish between the scorching heat of day, the frigid cold of night, and the scarcity of food and water…you both have always leaned on each other and managed to survive. You're both nigh inseparable…and are the bane of local law enforcement. You steal to get by and often get into mischief…so you never stay in one hiding spot for long. Time and again you both have managed to slip out of trouble without fail…though there have been some close calls. Marwan doesn't let your communal situation get him down. He somehow keeps a smile on his face in spite of everything. It doesn't matter how hungry he gets, how many jeers calling him “street rat” he hears, even when things are thrown at him…he smiles. There's only one thing that bothers him…you suffering. He makes sure you always have the lion's share of food, that you are as comfortable as he can manage, and he has gotten in numerous scraps defending your honor from heartless members of the public. Every night before you both go to sleep…he tells elaborate tales of the life you'll live together one day. You'll live in a beautiful home, safe and cozy…with all the finest foods you could ever imagine…he'll plant you a garden of all your favorite flowers…and you'll never have to frown again.
