(Arabic: أبو النقود)
Faction: Saracen
One of the nine people Al Mualim wants Altair to assassinate. He is found in the city of Damascus, in its rich district
Description
Abul Nuqoud is a very large, round, and wealthy man. He is a lavished merchant king of the city of Damascus. He decorates his home with the fines decor, and feasts upon only the finest of foods. The name "Abul Nuqoud" means the man who have a lot of of money (literally the father (abu) of money (nuqoud)).
However, Abul has great disdain for the poor citizens of the city. He sees them as nothing more than a source of all the crime, disease, and other poor things in the world. With that, he takes perverse pleasure from seeing them die painful deaths. He is also incredibly self centered, and loves nothing more than to show off his generosity to the people of Damascus.
