Kara Ben Nemsi (in Arabic Karl the Son of the Germans) is a fictional character in the works of Karl May, best-selling 19th century German writer. Alter ego of the author, everything written from first person perspective, he travels throughout the Ottoman empire, alongside his friend and servant Hadschi Halef Omar.

His character being identical to that of Old Shatterhand, he owns two famous rifles, the Bärentöter (Bear Killer) and the Henrystutzen (Henry-Rifle). Without ever leaving the saddle of his fabulous black horse Rih, Kara Ben Nemsi left-handedly fights off droves of thieves and crooks left and right. On night-long rides through bleak and barren lands, he never wavered in sharing his long-winded religious musings with unenlightened natives and readers alike.
