The Ra's Al-Af'a (رأس أفعى; "Head of the Snake")[1] was the title held by the Order of the Ancients' leader operating in Baghdad during the Abbasid Caliphate.

However, her Order branch quickly fell to the Hidden Ones based in Alamut while Qabiha herself was killed by the Master Assassin Roshan after her identity was discovered.[3]
