Bio: Born to a wealthy Saddle Arabian family in the city of Hoofuf , Samiel was raised with the best luxuries a pony can have. However he chose to receive an education in Prance and excelled in his classes all throughout his years. During this time he practiced his family heritage of the mastery of the scimitar. At the age of 24 he received a Doctorate in Philosophy and Culture Studies. He returns to Saddle Arabia whilst it's in a state of political turmoil and delves his time to diplomatically resolve the issues between the lower classes and tribes and the upper aristocratic classes. This didn't work out as expected, as Samiel began to realize how sheltered his lavish life was and the amount of suffering his own people was enduring. Due to his family's political position Samiel was not able to openly protest against the upper classes values and objectives. Instead, he frames his family for treason and has them imprisoned; this allows him to seize the family's wealth and business connections. Shortly afterward, an organization known as the Hidden Daggers approaches him and makes him an offer. From there he invested in supporting a rogue general in starting a civil war in Saddle Arabia. The first few years were successful, the general's forces actually capturing the capital city for 3 months. However, due to allied support, the Saddle Arabian government manages to push back and sabotage the resistance in the last few years. Expecting defeat soon, Samiel plans with the general to have him picked up in the town of Calais; from there he would lay low to regroup and plan a counter attack. When Sirocco's group arrives at the riverbed town, he finds it completely flooded with no survivors in sight. The dam was blown wide open, and with nothing to salvage, the pegasus returns home, wondering how much of an impact it would have on his investments; as well as the personal cost of fellow friends and brothers in arms.

After a month of financial damage control, Samiel manages to find the identity of who the Saddle Arabian government named "The Reaper of Calais." The actions of this pony spread through the country like wildfire, instilling fear to the revolutionists, enough to officially end the 9 years of civil war in Saddle Arabia, 9 years of profit, gain, and a sincere sense of freedom for the lower class to Samiel. The fire of revenge does flicker for the pegasus as he slowly but surely discovers the pony's occupation, the group he works with, and the soldiers he fights along. After another month of planning, Samiel finally manages to seek his revenge without raising a weapon. Using his contacts, and a page from his own enemy, he hires a lure which leads the pony and his allies to an ambush. A few days after the order is sent, Samiel receives a letter telling him that the trap was costly, but successful.

The following months would be spent supporting the resistance on hit and run raids. However, a message from an unknown source informs him of the Reaper of Calais's survival. Plus the fact that there was much more going on than he had realized about the conflict and The Hidden Daggers. Not to be a stallion to just sit around, he delves into investigating this mysterious group. Clues begin to appear but can't connect to a single point. Whether he liked it or not, he had to find the one responsible for ending the war to get answers. In the meantime, the stallion reduces his involvement and returns to peaceful negotiations. This time it becomes more effective, no one becoming any wiser of his backdoor treason.

One day, his sources find something. A letter from the Reaper of Calais himself with a taste of evidence on the true culprit. Forming a group of his most trusted warriors, Samiel ventures to Equestria, vowing to Saddle Arabia that he would return with those responsible as well as answers. Within days he meets Foxtrot and his companions, who were also pursuing the ones who started the war, the Directors of The 26.

He wouldn't need to wait long for their capture, and their transfer to his custody allowed the stallion to achieve his goal. Now, with the Directors imprisoned, Samiel continues to work with the very establishment he had fought against, whilst campaigning for change and equality for all Saddle Arabians.
