''"A farmer comes home one day to find that everything that gives meaning to his life is gone. Crops are burned, animals slaughtered, bodies and broken pieces of his life strewn about. Everything that he loved taken from him – his children. One can only imagine the pit of despair, the hours of Job-like lamentations, the burden of existence. He makes a promise to himself in those dark hours. A life’s work erupts from his knotted mind. Years go by. His suffering becomes complicated. One day he stops – the farmer who is no longer a farmer – sees the wreckage he’s left in his wake. It is now he who burns, he who slaughters, and he knows in his heart he must pay."'' -- Red Reddington, The Blacklist

Waraj Sind appears to be a Indian man in his middle to late thirties. Dark of hair and eyes, Waraj's skin is a healthy sienna like black coffee mixed with a quarter creme. He has a runner's athleticism without the bulk so commonly seen in those who attend modern gymnasiums. Waraj's face is both handsome and expressive with heavy heavy eye-brows, a strong nose and a square jaw covered by a well trimmed black beard. The Fixer dresses himself in handmade bespoke suits, the finest Italian leather shoes and eschews jewelry of any kind save for expensive Swiss timepieces.

Mr.Sind speaks only the Queen's English, but with a mellifluous Indian pronunciation. Waraj is a social beast, unabashedly flirtatious with banter and repartee, but grounded by an animal cunning and an earthy cynicism. Regardless of the circumstances he is unfailingly polite, but his double entendres and antiquated turns of speech often leave the modern listener with a sense of bewilderment. Despite this he has moments of thoughtful insight, empathy, and he is aware that people by and large like to talk about themselves whether they realize it or not. And it can be said, regrettably, that he has only a passing familiarity with the truth.

"The Sherpa"

Appearance

Waraj Sind appears to be a Indian man in his middle to late thirties. Dark of hair and eyes, Waraj's skin is a healthy sienna like black coffee mixed with a quarter creme. He has a runner's athleticism without the bulk so commonly seen in those who attend modern gymnasiums. Waraj's face is both handsome and expressive with heavy eye-brows, a strong nose and a square jaw covered by a well trimmed black beard. The Fixer dresses himself in handmade bespoke suits, the finest Italian leather shoes and eschews jewelry of any kind save for expensive Swiss timepieces.

Behavior

Mr.Sind speaks only the Queen's English, but with a mellifluous Indian pronunciation. Waraj is a social beast, unabashedly flirtatious with banter and repartee, but grounded by an animal cunning and an earthy cynicism. Regardless of the circumstances he is unfailingly polite, but his double entendres and antiquated turns of speech often leave the modern listener with a sense of bewilderment. Despite this he has moments of thoughtful insight, empathy, and he is aware that people by and large like to talk about themselves whether they realize it or not. And it can be said, regrettably, that he has only a passing familiarity with the truth.

History

Waraj Sind's history is largely a function of circumstance, to whom he is speaking and what he thinks they most want to hear.
