Born in a small farming community, Faisal witnessed injustice at a young age when his neighbors were arrested by the Brotherhood of the Golden Faith for worshiping forbidden gods. He left home and lived with desert nomads for many years, where he came to worship Haku, the god of freedom and independence. As Haku's worship is forbidden by the clergy in Zakar, Faisal took it upon himself to form a holy order in defense of Haku and the other forbidden members of the Eight Great Gods.
