Summary

Description
English: A Nihang bodyguard serving in the Nizam of Hyderabad's irregular Sikh army.

In his right hand he holds a khanda sword, and in his left a ball and chain flail. The all-steel chillanum dagger in his kamarband is traditionally associated with southern India.

He also wears a shield, a second sword and a pistol- (the butt of which is visible under his left arm). His battle-turban is fortified with razor-sharp steel quoits, miniature sword blades and steel chains.
