Stoic, emotional.

Locations: Eating Hall, Town Centre, Temple of Tepititan, Hut 5.

Character: Senwe is quiet and reluctant to talk. When he does speak he tends to be cryptically poetic and it is often unclear what he means. As the Keeper of the Flame, he is responsible for all the torches and cooking fires of the Village of Tep; this makes him an influential authority figure. He does not like to see his people die, even though he understands that the gods require it. Senwe's wife was killed earlier and his eyes betray a great emotional pain. He will not discuss her death with the player. He is willing to talk with the player but he always seems to hold something back. It is possible that Rametep required Senwe to murder his own wife.

Description: Senwe's tall, lanky body is fit but starting to show signs of age. His white toga reveals pink, fleshy burn scars that line his hands and arms and eventually fade into tattoos of a powerfully built, square-jawed man dancing across his bony shoulders. A yellow and white feather head-dress stands on his head, making him seem even taller than he actually is. He wears a necklace of yellow and red beads interspersed between flintstone carvings of a square-jawed, determined-looking, male face. Senwe carries a pouch of dry twigs and kindling across his back. A small pouch on his waist contains what appears to be fire making tools.

"Trust in the flame to light your path, stranger."
"Tepititans fire is within all his children. May the fires consume your heart."
"My heart... this fire burns..."
"Will Rametep douse THIS fire?"
"Tepititans fire... so bright... my eyes!"
