Sayyida Aminah bint Yusuf al-Zarqa (email)Sayyida Aminah (Ah-meh-nah or Ah-mee-nah) bint Yusuf al Zarqa is a Persian trader, scholar and tutor, she has travelled near and far and found herself in Radburne sometime before ASXL. Her mother is Persian and father was a trader and traveler from somewhere in Europe where they all have blue eyes, are quite tall and charm Persian women in to giving them gold and leaving them with a baby, thank you very much. Aminah enjoyed herself so much amongst wonderful people that she decided to stay for 4 and half years until her first mate in the vessel “Yasmina’ ran away with the profits of trading and a bar maid called Bessie. Aminah had no choice but to trade and travel outside of Radburne, only returning when she could.She has travelled and briefly traded with the courts of the Champa and Mongols before escaping the tumultuous times of the Ming downfall at the hands of Le Loi and the Lam Son uprising, she tutored and traded in Siam for the court of the Kingdom of Ayutthaya where she discovered riches and enjoyed the privilege of court, however, a misunderstanding involving silk fabrics and price fixing saw Aminah leave very quickly.Aminah slowly journeyed towards her home city of Samarkand but decided to detour to the Peninsula of Al Bida for pearls, shell, dates and skins (goat, sheep and other)  to trade in Persia, she has spent the last two and half years trading back and forth with Persia, Greece, Ceylon, and with Cornish privateers, with a brief sojourn into being a concubine in the court of Abu Said Uthmann the Third in Maghreb, luckily she was rescued by some Berber traders and made her escape at midnight in a donkey cart.Aminah is happiest, however, when she is sitting side by side in taverns of Lochac or the campsites of Radburne rubbing shoulders (so to speak) with privateers, Vikings and the good gentles of the Kingdom. She likes shiny things, quality fabrics, watching people hit each other with sticks wearing shiny (or not so) armour, conversing with commoners and royalty alike, educating young people and a good singalong.  What she doesn’t like is: bad food, and ill-mannered gentles who do not use please and thank you.
