Name:  Kamiri wa Itherero
Clan:  Akunanse
Generation:  5th
Embraced:  Unknown

Kamiri wa Itherero is the first Laibon sired by Fakir Al Sidi.  All Laibon history and knowledge has been passed down from Kamiri.  He is respected by the Kenyans, who often seeked his advice.  The people called Kamiri “the official poisoner” and hired him to posion their enemies.  But Kamiri, being a fair man, would contact the victim beforehand and warn him, giving him the opportunity to correct the wrong he had committed.

Kamiri was last seen 1,000 years ago, meditating at the edge of a cliff overlooking the Indian Ocean.  Traditionally, the Laibon living near Mombasa takes the name of Kamiri wa Itherero, in honor of the Founder’s son.  The current Laibon known as Kamiri was Embraced in 1582.
