Rughal', 'Dr. Ramzi\’s nemesis in the strip is the 500-year-old Rughal. After the fall of Baghdad, when the Noor Stones were created, they were kept safe in a domed fortress. In the 1400s, Rughal was one of the guardians of the fortress and began to understand the power of the stones. Trying to harness that power for himself, Rughal blew up the fortress, and the Noor Stones were released. Although Rughal\’s physical body was destroyed, he survived as an energy force. Like Ramzi, Rughal searches for the gemstones, but rather than using them for knowledge and unity, he wants their power to control the world.', '1', '3'], ['slideshow/images2/1_rughal.jpg', '2.) Rughal', 'The first illustration showed Rughal as a traditional "villain": old, ugly and clearly evil. But he was not inherently evil, more an antagonist, and the team wanted more subtlety -- a character with a strong belief in his own methods, someone whose cause could be just as attractive as Ramzi\’s.', '2', '0'], ['slideshow/images2/2_rughal.jpg', '3.) Rughal', 'Rughal needed to reflect a timeless quality and also show something of the time in which he was born. He also needed to appear of indeterminate age, anywhere from 30 to 50. While he was not meant to be the “stock villain,” the team felt his character should always look somewhat predatory and almost feral.', '3', '1'], ['slideshow/images2/3_rughal.jpg', '4.) Rughal', 'Unlike Ramzi, who has no special powers, Rughal would be competing with the characters who did have special powers, so he needed a costume besides his usual civilian garb. This design led to the evolution of how Rughal\'s power worked. The fact that he is made of energy held together by sheer force meant that he would sometimes need hard body armor to support his presence in the modern world.', '0', '2'] ]; function switchStory(story) { document.getElementById("storyImage").src = STORIES[story][0]; document.getElementById("storyTitle").innerHTML = STORIES[story][1]; document.getElementById("storyText").innerHTML = STORIES[story][2]; //document.getElementById("storyQuote").innerHTML = STORIES[story][3]; document.getElementById("storyLink").innerHTML = "\"Next\""; document.getElementById("storyLinkb").innerHTML = "\"Back\""; return false; } // -->
