Contents
History[edit]
Early Life[edit]
Orphaned after a raid against the world he was living on. He was adopted by the prominent Fusilli family[2]. He was raised with his adopted brother, Toma, with whom he had a close bond. He grew up with a strong sense of honor and dedication to the Combine.[3]
Early Military and Special Forces Career[edit]
Sorenson's Sabres[edit]
Shakir joined the DCMS at early age after graduating and becoming a MechWarrior. He was first assigned to the First Proserpina Hussars, but he soon began to criticize the regiment's leading officers. After his tour with the Hussars ended, he was transferred to the Legions of Vega brigade as Lance Commander.[2]
While with the Legion, despite the "dishonor" of serving with them, he kept his bushido ways and made a show of his loyal to the Combine. ISF officials assigned to the Legion, satisfied with his loyalty, recruited him into the ISF's Metsuke branch as an informer.[2]
With his first assignment with ISF, Jerrar transferred to Sorenson's Sabres. His assignment was to report on the loyalties of the unit's commander, the Rasalhague native, Tai-i Daniel Sorenson and his troops. Jerrar developed a strong friendship with Sorenson and fit well with the unit's personalities. From 3048-3049, he participated in the Sabres' FedCom border campaign, where his customized Hunchback was put to good use. He reported to his ISF officials of the Sabres' progress into the Federated Commonwealth's former FedSuns border worlds. His reports reflected his trust in decision of Tai-i Sorenson's assessments of campaign.[4]
DEST[edit]
After serving with the Sabres, Shakir was assigned to the ISF's DEST. Jerrar was soon given command of one of its DEST Teams. During his command, he and his unit were deployed against Clan Smoke Jaguar. His fanatical dedication to the Dragon and his tactical abilities on the battlefield allowed Jerrar to avoid the purge of DEST, following the assassination attempt on the Coordinator by Kokuryu-kai influenced DEST teams in 3058. Despite his transfer from the Sabres, he maintained strong ties with Sorenson.[5]
The Jihad and as ISF Director of the Draconis Combine[edit]
By the dawn of the Word of Blake's Jihad, he was already serving as the head of the entire DEST organization. However, in 3068, ISF Director Ninyu Kerai-Indrahar was killed along with Jerrar's brother in a reported AFFS raid on Benjamin. Jerrar was then appointed as Ninyu's successor, due to his background. Once Jerrar had taken command of the ISF, he took a cautionary approach in dealing with the Kokuryu-kai traitors who had usurped commands and worlds from the Combine's leadership.
In 3069, due to traditions and codes of honor, he married his brother's wife, and adopted his son. In the same year, he came into dispute with Kanrei Kiyomori Minamoto on Benjamin due to his lack of progress in eliminating the Kokuryu-kai grip on Combine forces and worlds. Jerrar's loyalty was further questioned due to his wife's family's association with the Kokuryu-kai leadership, known as the "Council of Gems". In 3075 as result of this exchange with Kanrei, he had the ISF undertake bloody purges to root out the traitors in ranks of both military and civilian population. These purges would be considered to be part of Combine's quiet war against the Kokuryu-kai known as the Misogi War.[2][6]

Shakir was known for his strong affiliation to Combine's philosophies of bushido. However, he had a sharp tongue and posed a scabrous wit in his youth. Physically has dark skin and is noted for shaving his head of hair.[7][8]
Family & Legacy[edit]
Jerrar married Kikiyra Jerrar, widow of his brother Toma. He also adopted Toma's son Jamal who would be his heir by 3070. Minor gossip surfaced regarding his adopted son, this is due to him appearing to have similar in physical characteristics to Jerrar. However, his family promptly disputed these facts.[9]
