Ra’D Hashion [Arabic for: “The Thunder Crusher”]
Ra’D earliest memories are of training in the pits. He’s Father, Ahmed Hashion, was a Gladiator, a Free man and, fought in the pits to support his family. He’s brother, Ra’D’s uncle Hekheem Hashion, was a Pit-boss and Ring agent for his father. Ahmed had Ra’D training in the pits with outhers of his size but, he showed great talent, recovered quickly and, enjoyed the training. It became harder and harder on Ra’D as he grew, they pit him against gladiators of every walk in life, even some grollen. I studied their movements, strengthes and weaknesses…learning about the vital parts of the body, for both healing and, critical strikes against foes. From sun up to sun down, Ra’D trained through every seasons, blistering heat, dust storms…it was all he knew. He would examine the bodies of the fallen to learn more about their Anatomy, Pressure Points and, Vital Areas. Ra’D’s favorite method of combat is Mixed Martial Art(MMA) and, loves boxing and, is an honest pugilist. He knows the tricks of the trade but, prefers to let people live. Giving them a serious beating for entering the ring where he lives though, for, they’re just visitors on his home turf. He takes on some pretty messed up people, rapist, thieves, killers and, every other form of scum and villiany that exists.
Ahmed had trained Ra’D well and, Hekheem thought Ahmed was ready to take on the current champion. He wagered nearly everything but, lost…lost his silver and his life in one of the most famous battles fought ever within the confines of the Pits of Beryl. People still talk about it, it was one of those legendary battles between he and Krog “The Horrible”. Ra’D lives Hekheem’s and covers his lodgings (Large Flat overlooking the Pits), Good Food/Drink/Equipment on a running tab, as almost everone knows him in Beryl. It’s a good relationship and strong loyalties because of his father. Hekheem is a good friend, trainer, manager and, his family…the Blood that bonds their relationship. Hekheem is well known for being a dirty fighter but, one of the best Trainers in all of Beryl. He took over Ra’D’s Training after his father had passed as they ran a Gladiator Training school in Beryl. Hekheem still puts out many great fighters and, Ra’D is one of the best there is…Hekheem would like to see him use some more dirty fighting in the ring but, respects that he doesn’t need it. Ra’D has deadly aim and, powerful strikes and, studies the “Unemcumbered Fighting Style” and, is one of the crowds most favorite fighters as, he’s a Local boy grown tough right there in Beryl and, is famous for his thundering strikes, visious body blows, quick take downs and, broken bones of many of his opponents but, all of them lived to fight another day and, that too, pleases the crowd. Fighters and training is expensive unless you’re a slave so, getting several uses out of a fighter and their short careers is worth something to the other pit-bosses. Nearly all of his fights end in Knock outs and, a lot of his damage to opponents is superficial and, recovered from quickly, this cuts the time the other pit-fighters need to heal and recover, which is also appriated by other pit-bosses. In unarmed combat, you’ll find few who as good as Ra’D “The Thunder Crusher” Hashion.
This Journal entry was Written by Hekheem Hashion for Ra’D Hashion, ‘The Thunder Crusher’. May the favor of Mizras always shine upon my nephew.
