HISTORY
The Hierarch of the Southern Emirates, Yaacob al-Shahran, is a notable polygamist, known to have at least 29 children with several wives. However, the most well-known of his children are the three boys he had with his first wife, all of which took the compound name 'Abdel' in their names, collectively known as the 'Three Princes'. Abdelkader is the third and youngest of the 'Three Princes'. Due to the age gap between his brothers and himself (27 and 23, respectively), Abdelkader (or 'Kader', as he is often referred) remains close to his brothers, and he often joins their company, usually on hunting trips. Unlike his more mature brothers, Kader dislikes the planned and regimented thinking of his brothers, a strong believer that actions speak louder than words. In particular, Kader has a love for swords and despite being a male, Kader managed to learn a few tricks from the Sword Sisters lodge. Inspired by their iconic blade lance, Kader commissioned a smith to build his iconic weapons, with short curved blades on both sides of the handle.

Abdelkader and Rosalyn were close some time back despite being half-siblings, possibly due to their similar ages. However, politics soon got in the way, and Kader's mother forcibly banished Rosalyn and her mother out of the palace. Kader may know the reason, but being very afraid of his manipulative mother, kept his mouth shut. The incident had also made him to hate liars and deceptive words and be honest with life. Kader had tried to reconcile with Rosalyn multiple times, but the latter rebuffed him each time.

PERSONALITY
While he is a well-meaning and kind person, Abdelkader is notable for being a brash and impatient person. Not a 'thinking' person, Kader prefers to just get into a situation and come up with courses of actions as it goes. As mentioned, Kader dislikes deception, and he can be rather blunt with his words. Diplomacy is certainly not his strong point, given his brutal honesty and failed reconciliation with his half-sister Rosalyn. Being the youngest (relative to his full brothers), Kader has a constant need to prove to his brothers that he can take care of himself.

ABILITIES
Abdelkader's brash and impatient personality seemed to suit his style of fighting, especially with his custom made blades. While he may not be a 'thinker' person, Kader certainly has a sharp memory, able to pick up skills simply by observation and practice. His sword skills, in particular, were learned after watching several Sword Sisters in action. Kader adds to the style with his custom blades, capable of quick successions of slashes or parries. His style is well-suited against mobs of enemies, which he often faces due to his brash and impatient nature.

'Abdelkader' is a composite name. 'Abdel' is a variation of the name 'Abdul', which means 'servant of (the)'. 'Kader' is a variant of the name 'Qadir', which means 'capable' or 'powerful'. Both names are of Arabic origin. Putting the names together, the name roughly translates as 'servant of the capable' or 'servant of the powerful'.
