| Sinbad the Sailor | comment |
Sinbad the Sailor is an outcome report about an Intrepid Merchant who goes on seven high risk business ventures to open new trade routes to oversea markets, only to have unforeseen complications create areas of opportunity for his negotiating skills to create mutually beneficial outcomes.Or at least, that would be the modern interpretation of Sinbad. This Middle Eastern fable is a collection of stories told in a manner similar to the Thousand And One Nights; Sinbad (or Hinbad) the Porter stops to rest outside the mansion of Sinbad the merchant, and laments that for chance he missed out on the amazing riches of the latter, which he won very easily. However, who should hear him but Sinbad the Sailor? Rather than be angry at his jealousy, he invites the porter to dine with him and regales him for seven consecutive nights with the tales of his fortunes and misfortunes, adventures and perils, giving him a hundred gold coins at the end of each.The tales of Sinbad the Sailor were originally independent of the Thousand and One Nights. Antoine Galland added Sinbad to the Nights when compiling his 18th-century French translation, which was the first translation into any European language, and which introduced the Nights to European culture. The "Sinbad" stories have since become closely associated with the Thousand and One Nights and are usually included in Nights translations. The original Arabic name is most closely transliterated as "Sindbad"; this is how it's spelled in the famous Richard Burton translation and the 2008 Lyons translation. Despite this, "Sinbad" without a D has become the most common form in English, and some scholars have jokingly (or not) suggested it's because of the inadvertent pun on "sin" and "bad". Note that there are two radically different versions of Sinbad's seventh voyage (one where he spends a long period in a city of intermittently winged men, the other where he's enslaved and encounters an Elephant Graveyard); some translations include both.Despite being commonly called "the Sailor," Sinbad is a merchant and a ship-owner, and has adventures in places reached by sailing, but is not himself a sailor of any sort; at most, he occasionally improvises rafts for emergency travel. Some translations call him something like "Sindbad of the Sea", which might be more accurate.Sinbad has proven a popular figure in the cinema and on TV, where, however, his adventures have generally had little connection with his original 1,001 Nights version.Not to be confused with Popeye The Sailor, though they did "costar" in Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor, sort of. Also not to be confused with Sinbad the comedian. | |

Darker and Edgier: We get more cannibalism, but this time the victims are essentially lobotomized, treated as livestock and deliberately fattened up. Later on Sinbad is entombed alive, and resorts to murdering others who suffer the same fate in order to take their food and survive a little longer. | |

Doom Magnet: Sindbad is unlucky, very unlucky. However, his shipmates tend to be a lot unluckier — at least Sindbad always survives. Most of the stories involve him becoming the sole survivor of some terrible cataclysm, or begin that way. Then it gets worse. Then he gets rich(er). Then he goes out on more adventures and does it again! | |

Strictly Formula: Sinbad gets wanderlust (or, in some of the earlier voyages, broke), goes off on a trading expedition, gets shipwrecked or stranded, runs afoul of some sort of monster, meets up with a king who showers him with wealth and favors, and finally finds his way back to Baghdad. | |

Ocean of Adventure: Sinbad is a merchant who undertakes seven long journeys across the Indian Ocean. During his travels, he encounters terrible monsters and cannibals, travels to distant and wondrous places, and is shipwrecked or left stranded with a certain regularity, but always manages to use his wits to escape and return to Baghdad laden with riches. | |

Captured by Cannibals: Sinbad just keeps walking into this sort of thing, doesn't he?

Non-Action Guy | |
| Sinbad the Sailor / int_cc1bd54d | comment |
Non-Action Guy: Despite the modern habit of portraying him as a swashbuckling hero (just look at the page image), like a lot of 1,001 Nights heroes Sindbad is more of an explorer and businessman than a fighter and primarily uses his cunning to find ways to avoid conflict. When he is forced to fight, it's as a last resort, he isn't particularly good at it, and he rarely does so in a very action packed or heroic way — typically, he springs upon his enemies when they are vulnerable and beats them down before they can react. | |

Revised Ending | |
| Sinbad the Sailor / int_d51158ee | comment |
Revised Ending: Some versions, such as Burton and Lyons, include the alternate version in which the Caliph sends Sinbad back to Serendib bearing gifts — in effect, an eighth voyage, especially once things go wrong for Sinbad yet again. | |

Together in Death | |
| Sinbad the Sailor / int_f6624c30 | comment |
Together in Death: The bad kind. The kingdom Sinbad ends up living in for a while has a custom that when one member of a married couple dies, the surviving spouse will be entombed with them (and obviously won't survive for much longer after that). | |
