Serpentine

Kahleem came from a long lineage of ninjas. She learned from a young age that her ancestors were connected to the vampires. It explained why she was born with those ruby eyes.

Her clan was tied to the rulers of Saladiin. If they needed to perform espionage or an assassination, her clan was called upon. They had no last name, yet many called them the Sands of Death.

If your stars crossed paths with theirs, your fate was written in the sands. They were ruthless, effective, and quick. If a name made a list, the target would be found dead shortly after.

Kahleem was no different than her brothers and sisters. She endured harsh training from a young age. She watched her siblings die from the torturous drills. However, the organization never killed their emotions. She was free to grieve for the lost souls, and the faceless honored them.
