Shahrizad
Shari is one of nine Number Nine members of the Illuminati and Thailog's executive assistant.
History
For reasons not yet known, Shari infiltrated the Labyrinth on Halloween 1996 and met Talon, Maggie and Claw, as well as Goliath and Brooklyn. Upon meeting the clones, she asked Al to tell her of their origins. ("Invitation Only")
After Thailog attacked the Labyrinth, and took back control of the clones, Shari volunteered to head to the Eyrie Building to warn Goliath. ("Masque") But, she was lying as she next showed up at Nightstone Unlimited and after offering to become Thailog's new executive assistant, revealed to him that she was a senior member of the Illuminati. ("Bash")
Characteristics
Shari is apparently a young woman of Arab ethnicity. However, given the Illuminati's use of rejuvenation drugs, she may be older than she appears.
She also has an interest in long stories, either hearing them ("Invitation Only") or telling them. ("Reunion") She is usually heard beginning each of her stories with the phrase: "The story is told - though who can say if it be true - ..." This is more than just a "once upon a time" style generic introduction, for some of Shari's tales contradict each other.
