Name: Yisol
Age: 27
Height: 5'7"
Gender: Male
Personality: Moody and easily irritated, Yisol is a highly disciplined being with little time for frivolity or foolishness. The saying may be, "Idle hands are the devil's work tool." For Yisol, "Idle hands should be slapped in irons and made to work. And if they won't, lop them off as a reminder to others." He is single minded in what he wants, but will involve himself in fairly complex schemes to make it happen. He is a long-term thinker in that respect.
He is at times cruel and condescending. He finds himself to be amusing and if others don't think so, he declares them dullards. He will often find merriment at the expense of others. But, he's not a bad leader. He rewards loyalty and success. Those that are successful at their endeavors are showered with praise and receive rewards. Even when they fail once-in-a-while, he is forgiving. After-all he tells himself, "No one is perfect, not even me."
Biography: Like his sister, he grew up in the heart of Olalaash, trained by his father. His father was a Salvation Leader and he wanted him to become a Salvation leader along with his brothers and sister. Yisol, from a young age was different in his outlook, he was a believer in taking formulating plans and then taking action, not sitting around and praying for something good to happen. "If you pray instead of taking action, you become prey." he said many times, much to his father and siblings disapproval. Yisol grew to find Salvation to be weak, stifling, passive and unproductive.
Demean (the evil), on the other hand, were powerful, proactive, recognized the chafe when they saw it and, when need be, separated the wheat from that chafe to preserve the greater good. The use of prayers and hope to keep them safe seemed weak and passive. "Take the bull by the horns," and "We need to be proactive!" or "It's a philosophy that accomplishes little, rewards the failure, is centered on waiting for something to happen!" he would scream at his father.
One night while returning from a gathering of friends he met Theorwylld. Theorwylld had heard of Yisol's dissatisfaction with Salvation and offered to teach him something new, something that was based on his appreciation for discipline, for taking action and fed his hatred for his father's beliefs. Yisol learned the power of fire. The fire was like him, destructive, unforgiving, engaging, but most importantly, beautiful and active. It didn't wait for some other being to step up and move it from tree to tree, plant-to-plant. It played no favorites, it didn't discriminate, it just laid waste to all that stood in it's way, eliminating the strong and weak, young and old, fair and homely without remorse. The fire was perfect.
His goal is NOT the death of his sister, even though she would kill him. She may see him as a blight that needs to be purged for his betrayal and because he undermines societal harmony. His goal is to bring her over to his side, to see the world as he does, to rule as his co-ruler; nothing could show the weakness of Salvation more than having its champion become his co-ruler. He wishes to turn as many away from Salvation as possible, with his sister being the most important, and destroy those that don't 'Walk into the Light. Embrace the Flame."
