** [[{{Tulpa}} Nehal]] is Basim's snarky childhood friend and fellow thief whose cautionary and pragmatic advice lead him to [[TheCorrupter down a dark path]] in life. Seeking to push Basim away from the Hidden Ones to pursue his own desires, Nehal guides Basim to greater power by subtly leading him to Isu weapons and nurturing his interests in the ancient civilization and his mysterious connection to it. Basim's unerring hunt of the Order of the Ancients leads her to imply the Order's leader knows of Basim's true identity which in turn is the catalyst for him to work with Nehal to go against the Hidden One's wishes to find the Isu vault beneath their stronghold. In the ancient Isu vault, Nehal is revealed to be Loki's buried consciousness that only Basim could see and hear. Nehal had been manipulating Basim for his entire life to ensure he would someday come to terms with his past life and [[SplitPersonalityTakeover finally awaken as the reborn Isu]]. Nehal embraces and comforts Basim one last time as they are fused together to form Loki and effectively cease to exist.
** [[BigBad Al-Bahamut, Qabiha]], was the favored concubine of the late former Caliph, the leader of the Arabian branch of the Order of the Ancients, and [[TheDogWasTheMastermind the true power]] behind the Abbasid Caliphate. Disguising her grand agenda and sharp mind behind a vapid personality and outward love of petty harem politics, Qabiha built the Baghdad Order and secured control over the Caliphate's academics, economy, and military through her subordinates. When her husband died at Basim's hand, she sacrificed her own son's succession to win the loyalty of the governor hiding the Hidden One's stronghold to reveal it and organize an attack to reveal the Isu vault hidden beneath. Qabiha even recognized Basim as an Isu host and awaited the day he would come for her to reveal his true identity and win him to her side. Although slain by Roshan before she could turn Basim, Qabiha [[VillainousLegacy nonetheless succeeded]] in setting Basim to his destiny and the eventual awakening of Loki.
** [[MerchantPrince Al-Pairika, Ning]], is the Abbasid royal treasurer who bends the Caliphate's vast mercantile empire to the whims of the Order. Born a poor peasant in China, Ning would be sold into slavery to a trader yet successfully used her brilliant mind to gather enough resources and connections [[RagsToRiches to take over]] the Ivory Coin merchant guild. Her position allowed her to control vast trade routes to funnel both Isu artifacts to the Order and to fulfill all manner of personal desires to bask in her wealth. Basim would come to hunt her as she manipulated tax collectors to extort vulnerable foreign merchants and non-Muslims and use the wealth to fund the naval blockade of Baghdad. When Basim infiltrates her inner sanctum offering an ornate hairpin she desired, she recognizes his intent and lures him in with her life story and motives before very nearly killing him with the hairpin itself.
** [[FourStarBadass Al-Mardikhwar, Wasif al Turki]], is the warlord of the Caliphate military and uses the army to secretly enforce the Order's desires. Wasif earned his place in the Order by being a skill tactician and charismatic commander who used his position to eliminate potential rivals and play the role of king maker controlling the Caliphs. When the Zanj rebellion led Ali ibn Muhammad begins to grow in power, Wasif employs a vast spy network to uncover and expose members of the rebellion and their collaborators before having them publicly executed as a message to the general populace. As Basim closes in and infiltrates Baghdad's greatest fortress, he discovers Wasif hs already captured Ali's right hand Beshi and executes him before engaging Basim in battle. While slain, Wasif [[VillainHasAPoint shakes Basim's faith in the Hidden Ones]] by pointing out they are not so different by silencing those against their own views.
