Expensive taste. That is the first impression one might have of his man. In his mid to late 30's he stands 5'10 tall and slender. His Indian-Arabic features are regular, well balanced and cleanly formed with dusky bronze skin, short black curly hair with dark eyes. Just a hint of stylish facial stubble trimmed up sharp and left intentionally. His gaze is watchful, quick to smile charmingly when appropriate.

Shaardul, a Hindi name that means 'the Tiger' was born on Santo in 2495 to a wealthy family with at least twenty seven brothers and 9 sisters, most of them half sibs (with more on the way).  Of Asian Indian descent through his father, and Arabic through his mother, Shaardul is blessed with good looks and an easy early life.  The family's primary business is owning and managing high end casinos and hotels, as well as many lesser known income sources.  The Singhji's are not quite a Noble family in modern circles though they would like very much to think of themselves so and would not hesitate to do whatever was necessary to ascend to that rank amid the Alliance's House of Lords.

Shaardul, a Hindi name that means 'the Tiger' was born on Santo in 2495 to a wealthy family with at least twenty seven brothers and 9 sisters, most of them half sibs (with more on the way). Of Asian Indian descent through his father, and Arabic through his mother, Shaardul is blessed with good looks and an easy early life. The family's primary business is owning and managing high end casinos and hotels, as well as many lesser known (and likely less legal) income sources. The Singhji's are not quite a Noble family in modern circles though they would like very much to think of themselves so. They would not hesitate to do whatever was necessary to ascend to that rank amid the Alliance's House of Lords.

Shaardul's father, Akhilesh (Lord of the Universe in Hindi) is a man of extreme high tastes in most things pleasurable. Along with a beautiful wife, he is known to boast many mistresses and many, many children. More even than Shaardul is aware of himself. The Singhji family line is an ancient one descending from Hindu royalty (Rajahs) all the way back to Earth-That-Was of the Ks.atriyas (Warrior and Ruling caste). There are standards and traditions to be upheld. Some of which Shaardul had no interest in upholding... in time he wore out his welcome, chaffed at the family expectations, and decided it was best to move on. He's not to return until he's made something of himself and is willing to conform to his sire's demands. However, Shaardul formed other ambitions....
