Sanam Fayad is an undead ifrit from Amshan, formerly a world-renowned duelist. She rose as a cadaverous rake in Y6530 after dying in a duel with her rival, Vartan Khour. Though both died during this encounter, two two duelists are convinced the other struck the killing blow first. Driven by a compulsive need for a rematch, Fayad and Vartan continue to pursue each other across the world. Though she has been almost singleminded in her pursuit, Fayad is more than willing to fight other opponents who get in her way. She has caused the demise for a number of Amshani swordmasters.
