Shiek Maherl is a
stocky Arabian man who fights with a scimitar and uses fire projectiles. He
can also inflate himself like a balloon and summon a genie. In the 1994
prototype of Breakers, titled Crystal Legacy, he was known as
Sahl Mahal.
Fun Fact: Maherl's alter-ego in Breakers (when two players choose the same
character) is named Javar. Javar is a cheerful butcher who uses his butchering
blade as his weapon.

Before I say
anything about this guy... when I see his name, all I see is MAHVEL. MAHVEL
MAHVEL MAHVEL... WHEN'S MAHVEL. Anyhow, Maherl is a very generic,
stereotypical Arabian design. He looks like one of the dudes that chased Aladdin
down the alleys (possibly the actual inspiration behind his design). His moveset
has some fairly decent elements to it... and his genie-friend is kinda cool,
though very much a rip-off of Jafar... again, from Aladdin. Overall, he's
a bit awkward and generic for obvious reasons, but not the worst character from
one of the many SF2 rip-off fighting games of the 90's.
