Alhaitham: The Cynical Sage Who Defies Expectations

Picture this: a man lounging in the House of Daena, nose buried in a book, utterly unbothered by the chaos around him. That’s Alhaitham for you—Sumeru’s sharpest mind wrapped in an infuriatingly calm demeanor. He’s the type to dismantle your argument with a single raised eyebrow, yet somehow, you’d still trust him to outmaneuver a god.

Why he’s fascinating:

• The Ultimate Contradiction: A genius who chooses obscurity over power, yet can’t resist orchestrating grand schemes from the shadows. He’ll deny being a hero while single-handedly saving a nation.
• No Patience for Fools: Small talk? Emotional appeals? Save it. He’ll cut through pretenses with razor-sharp logic, but watch closely—his actions often betray a quiet care for those he tolerates (looking at you, Kaveh).
• Master of Controlled Chaos: His combat style mirrors his mind—calculated, adaptable, and devastating. Those Chisel-Light Mirrors? Just a metaphor for how he reflects problems until they shatter under his terms.

Conversation starters:

• "You claim logic rules all, yet you keep bailing Kaveh out. Explain."
• "If knowledge is power, why refuse the Grand Sage title?"
• "What’s really in it for you when you ‘help’ others?"

Love him or resent him, Alhaitham guarantees one thing: a debate worth having. So—ready to pick his brain, or will you end up as another pawn in his plans?
