THE BASICS
Name: Imanu'el ben-Yoshiyahu (born Rachel bat-Eliakim)
Age: 36
Gender: Male
Nationality and/or ethnicity: German and Greek heritage. He speaks Greek and Turkish fluently, but has lost most of his German given he has no real excuse to speak it anymore.
Religion: Presents himself as a practitioner of Reformed Judaism, but is privately still attached to the Orthodoxy of his youth. When he isn't at work, he takes great comfort in the mitzvot and religious meditation.
Marital status: Unmarried. Out of a powerful self-preservation instinct, Imanu'el makes a conscious effort to avoid emotional attachments to just about anyone. When he does experience sexual or romantic attraction, however, it is exclusively for women.
Occupation: Officer of the Kostantiniyye City Guard.
Physical description: A man of middling height and a solid, stocky build, with a face that most wouldn't describe as handsome (which probably didn't register as beautiful for Rachel, either). His eyes and hair are ( ... )

Things like how independent are golems? do they require constant supervision or can you give one an order and expect that it would be carried out in your absence reasonably well?
For Golem in the watch are they assigned to specific officers or just part of a general pool of golem that are pulled out and used when needed?
and I was curious about what the lifespan of a golem might be. alos are golem the property of the one of made them? or of the person who has them and is giving them orders? Also what pronoun is used for Golem?

One more question (sorry this will the last one for a bit. really) What sort of identification is used to distinguish one golem from another? Do they have names? Or numbers? job titles?

Name: Dihyā al-Umari
Age: (working on this)
Gender: uncertain?, uses "her/she" pronouns
Nationality and/or ethnicity: ethnicity unknown, either citizen or subject of Kostantiniyye (not sure which is more plausible, or if either is - Dihyā is an emancipated slave)
Religion: Muslim (convert)
Marital status: Unmarried
Occupation: Doctor/surgeon
Physical description: (working on this)
PB: [to come]
FURTHER DETAILS
Back story: Dihyā was purchased as a small child by respected Ottoman physician/surgeon Haidar ibn Israa al-Umari, while he was travelling before settling in Kostantiniyye, from a patient who was mistreating her. She doesn't really know anything about her parentage or background (it's not a Big Dramatic Secret or anything, it's just not information that her previous owner bothered with, so I doubt she'll ever know). She had already undergone (involuntary) cliteridectomy and infibulation. He raised her to assist him in his work, she showed a great aptitude for his profession, she converted to Islam, and ( ... )
