Sizwe Ghiberti
Sobriquet: Sizwe (sez-Wa). The Tracker (respectful). Pepper, a reference to his partnership with Shug Dunsirn (rude).
Appearance: Sizwe stands six-foot, five inches tall and probably weights around three hundred pounds. The tracker has virtually no body-fat and ripples with muscle. His eyes and hair are dark, but over the last three centuries his skin has lightened from its original saddle brown complexion to a dark goldenrod color that looks unhealthy and jaundiced in a black man. He wears his hair in tight dark braids, not dreads, that reach just past well muscled shoulders. He is equally comfortable wearing tribal leathers and homespun weave as he is in wearing the latest Italian fashions. His jewelry is always grotesque, consisting of equal parts pure gold, semi-precious to rare gem stones, and human bones, teeth and the occasional bezoar. He usually dresses to fit the occasion and tends to play up the part of the aboriginal barbarian to please the clients. At the time of his Embrace, Sizwe was probably in his early twenties, a fact supported by the fact that he has all of his teeth. In dangerous situation he can become the very image of the blood covered African warrior and while he is perfectly familiar with modern firearms, he carries a black-powder pistol, a handmade machete and a chipped obsidian ritual dagger.
Behavior: On the surface, Sizwe is silent to the point of seeming mute and the epitome of the stoic African hunter. When there is need to speak he doesn't hesitate, but even then he is usually curt and succinct to a fault. When it just he and Shug, he usually has quite a bit more to say and speaks in a cultured Franco-Arabic accent. When he is drunk, he can be positively verbose and can be frighteningly chummy, but most mortals and Kindred never see this side of Sizwe.
