Syfa John Ahmed

Syfa John Ahmed is a religious missionary and one of the primary protagonists on the animated series Gaffytown Bounty. He is the son of Hala Ahmed, the Muslim representative of God's Three on West Tygus. He is a transgender man. He debuts in season two of the show.

Background
Born Nabeelah Sofia Ahmed, Syfa lived a life of religious dedication in the Temple of Holies with his mother, Hala, and his father, Raphael. His days spent studying the religious books and relics of all the practicing religions on West Tygus prepared him for a life of missionary work. At the age of eleven, he transitioned and adopted the name Syfa John.

The Assassination of Dao Rae Mai
At the age of twelve, Syfa, witnessed the assassination of Dao Rae Mai, the Hindu representative of God's Three, by the bounty hunter Li Kee Way. Because West Tygus is designated as a no-bo planet, Li Kee Way was captured and charged with murder. Syfa volunteered as a witness in the trial and provided the evidence for the assassination. Dao Rae Mai was replaced by Talok Sustero, representing the sect of Christianity. Syfa would become best friends with Sustero's daughter Cleo.

After witnessing Dao Rae Mai's death, Syfa's priorities radically shifted. He spent the next few years debating his loyalties to the ways of West Tygus, his own faith, and his expectations as a missionary. He began his plot to escape West Tygus and start a new identity at the age of fifteen. He began to date Cleo, but upon informing her of his plans to abandon his duties, the two parted ways.

The Heart of the Divine
After multiple low-profile attempts to escape West Tygus failed, Syfa found himself faced with the final task of his studies: the Heart of the Divine. The program, which involved all student missionaries to work in the prison rehabilitation centers for one year, would confine him to a space in which escape would be altogether impossible.

Just two days before his assignment with the Heart of the Divine, Syfa made his last attempt at leaving the planet...
