She stands at about 5'5" in height, long brown hair falling loose (though sometimes braided) down her back. Her features are delicate, her skin tanned a golden brown, and rather charming green eyes taking in the world with just a slight hint of mischief (or mystery) contained there. At work she favors suits of rather bright (sometimes sherbert) colors. After a long day of work she dresses for comfort - usually white capris, sandals, and a yellow tank top, a light-colored silk blouse tied around her waist. Always on hand are the most expensive of accessories.

Rihana Qasim is the daughter of an Egyptian oil magnate. She was educated in English-speaking boarding schools in Jordan and Saudi Arabia. She graduated from their equivalent of High School at the age of 16. Her parents paid for her to travel to England and enroll in Oxford University. She majored in languages, and graduated at the age of 20 with a degree in Linguistics. Rihana then took a year off and toured Europe with several friends from University. A year ago she got a position with Exxon-Mobil as a translator. For the past year she has been traveling all over the world helping to broker deals with various countries, etc. She was just recently transferred to an office in Charleston. On a side note, Rihana has been trained in the ancient art of belly dancing since she was a small girl. She continued her education in the discipline through high school and into college. She has put the word out that Perizada (literally: born of the faeries; her stage name) is available to dance for small private parties.
