Shagaret al-Durr

Among mortals, Shagaret al-Durr (previously known as Shajar al-Durr) is known as the first and only sultana of Cairo. Originally, she was a turkish slave girl that the previous sultan, buyed for his wife. After the sultan had died, she hid the fact from the public in order to prevent the mamelukes from a coup d'état, as the only heir to the throne was in the crusades, and installed her as the sultan in his absence. After revolts within the population, she was forced to take a husband, who installed the first mameluke state within Egypt. Her gambit failed and, after the mysterious death of her husband, she was horribly beaten up by the retinues of a rival and tossed down into the mout, but she was safed by the Nosferatu Umm al-Mawt who inhabited the mout of the castle. He soon left her on her own devices.

After Shagaret returned into public, she mounted a campaign against the treatment of non-muslims nosferatu within Cairo and buildt a haven for all who wanted to hide from the Hajj and the mameluke prince that controlls the city. The movement called themselves the Alnilam and, in a slow scale, they are getting strong enough to oppose the merciless rule of the Hajj. Some even suspect her as the secret leader of a Gehenna cult.
