An Forda and his son are the Junk Dealers at the Tarna bazaar. He is the owner of Used Junk.

He tries to put his son in business, teaching him how to accenuate the positive elements (or "lying" as his son says) like advertising that they are selling "mostly new" (that is, not totally new) stuff.

Description[]

He is an older gentleman with a contentious look and a twinkle in his eyes.[1]

Behind the scenes[]

The characters, and Forda's reference to "Lizbeth", are a reference to the sitcom "Sanford and Son"[2]. This character is referred to as "Sanford" in the QFG3 transcript (246.scr).

An Forda wears a red fez with a yellow star and crescent[3], similar to the Ottoman flag[4].
