SADIQ ADNAN
-TURKEY-

"Just don't touch the mask, got it?"

Name: Sadiq Adnan
Origin: Istanbul, Turkey
Gender: Male
Orientation: Bisexual
Religion: Sunni Muslim
Birthday: October 29, 1929
Age: 29
Languages spoken: Turkish, pieces of Greek

Personality: Sadiq is somewhat rough and tough, usually spending his time fighting or smoking, since they're about the only ways he can be around those he helped raise or grew up with. He often reminisces about his past as the Ottoman Empire, considering it to be his “Glory Days” when the majority of the people he knew didn't hate his guts completely. Even now, he attempts to be friendly when he can, though such attempts usually fail. He has a sweet tooth, which he indulges when he gets the chance, and has a habit of manipulating others with sweets to get results he wants, such as promising Croatia sweets when she was young if she stopped trying to kill him at every chance.

Sadiq's habit of fighting isn't really him showing his hatred for someone, but getting out his frustration of not being able to enjoy the relationship he used to have with that person, like Greece. It's not quite a show of affection, but it's the closest he allows himself to show to others. During the Ottoman Empire, he was sort of a father-figure to his territories, but grew quite fond of them over time, and that fondness is what keeps him close even though those he'd taken care of hate him now.

Sadiq was also quite attached to his hookah as an Empire, and smoked at least once or twice a day to “keep him sane” as he claims, since those like Croatia and Hungary were quite resistant and often fought back. It also served to calm not only Sadiq's nerves, but the nerves of his charges, and if one got out of hand, he would smoke with them in the room to cause the troublemaker to become loopy enough to handle easily. Nowadays, he still smokes, but less often, and more to help him reminisce what his life used to be like before his empire fell and those he loved came to hate him.

Appearance: See picture

Relationships:

Greece: Age-long rival, he practically raised Heracles when he was growing up in the Empire, and as such, will sometimes call him by his childhood pet name “Dove” when he's remembering the past. While the two still fight like cats and dogs, Sadiq does care about Heracles, helping him with his economy as much as he can.

Egypt: A close friend, and somewhat of a mediator between Sadiq and Heracles, Egypt is one of the few people that Sadiq respects. Though that could partly be because of his superstition about Egypt's dog being possessed by/related to Anubis.

Croatia: One of his former territories and charges, Sadiq still antagonizes Croatia, though not nearly as much as he does for Greece, and will also reminisce about how wild and resistant she used to be under his control. He does care for her as well, but again, not as much as Greece.

Portugal: As a childhood friend, Sadiq and Portugal enjoy sharing culture and the occasional flirting, though it's usually just for fun. They did have a while where they were against each other, but even then, they did still enjoy some of their usual antics while still arguing.

Random Quirks:

~During the Ottoman Empire, he would bribe his territories, namely Greece and Croatia, with candy and sweets to get them to be good for him.
~Thanks to certain events during his Empire days, Sadiq dislikes children and is wary of North Italy, preferring to keep away from him.
~Sadiq is very protective of his mask, more often than not wearing it everywhere he goes, which causes some complications if/when he is asked to remove it, and he'll use anything he can find to cover his face until he gets it back.
~It could be said that he was a smoking addict as an Empire, but he claims that he smoked that much to deal with his bratty, defiant charges, Greece and Croatia, and would keep them with him while he smoked to make them loopy enough to put them to sleep as a form of calming them when they got rowdy.
