Combat Tactics
:
Yisi could have been a rogue. He favors tactics of stealth and surprise and will try to stay in the shadows as long as possible before revealing himself to an opponent. If he does not know how to specifically attack the vital energy points of a particular creature type, he will usually start with a Medicine check to try to identify a weakness, giving him advantage on the attack.

___________________________________
Roleplaying
:
Yisi does not have a high Charisma and will not voluntarily lead conversations or seek the attention of others. He is introverted but will, when the inspiration strikes him, blurt out lines of verse whenever they come to mind. (Note: create a list of poetic lines to pull from)

___________________________________
Objective(s):

Yisi currently desires to excel in the ways of his monastery, to gain Mastery level and teach Novices and Adepts at the Song Moon Temple. Aside from martial mastery, Yisi is also pursing skills in Poetry and Calligraphy. Teacher Solomvar has suggested he apprentice under a famous poet of Waterdeep for a time to learn the art of enchanting ink.

Motivations and Temptations:

Yisi has developed a fascination with Sune. He has not abandoned the faith of his temple, but recognizes that there are many powerful beings in existence. Some he would resist, but others he would emulate. Sune is one he would emulate by recognizing and valuing beauty whereever it is discovered. He believes beauty is not a trait of physical appearance but rather a quality which, like the moon, reflects true nature of Tel’Aestar. At least… he did. The more he spends time thinking about Sune, the more vain he becomes and the more he is favoring physical beauty even though he would still say his appreciation is philisophical.

___________________________________
Relationships:

Yisi and Valea are more that martial partners. They have a bond like brother and sister but even more than that. Yisi loves Valea, truly and deeply, but he has never allowed himself to entertain thoughts of intimacy. He has, of course, had thoughts of intimacy with Valea, but he has developed the habit of putting them away whenever they arise. He is no longer aware of how many times a day he puts such thoughts away… but it is more than a few.

Traits Ideals Bonds Flaws:

Traits:   I am a peaceful forest lake. I am serene with my thoughts and my tranquility overflows unto those around me.
Ideals:   Beauty. I am as a mirror, facing towards beauty and reflecting it back into the realms.
Bonds: I have a duty to my order and will stand with them in all things.
Flaws: I am increasingly becoming vain, emphazing physical beauty over the things I know really matter.

Background:

Yisi had been a ward of the monastery for a long time, since he was an infant. His Ar-tel-quessir (Sun Elf) parents left him at the Song Moon Temple for temporary keeping. They had received a call from Corellon Larethian himself to defend Arvandor from an invasion by the Unseelie Court. They were expected to return for Yisi but never did. Whether there are now alive or dead, Yisi does not know.

Born in 1467 (Year of the Three Heroes United) is now (1491) 24 years of age  – still very young for a High Elf – but has been training in martial abilities since he was 14.

His father left a very unique set of weapons with him. First Teacher Halanir (Halanir Eroth of the House Eroth) knew Yisi’s father as an acquaintance only, but told him of his fathers prowess with the Trisula weapons and that he had planned on teaching Yisi himself how to fight with them. They had been handed down through 10 Adorinn generations. With each new possessor, they demonstrated unique magical capabilities, but only have years of being attuned to them. The Trisula are piecing daggers, needles actually, with a hilt made of turned up needle-sharp prongs – perfect for grappling weapons and blocking attacks. They are ancient weapons, made of Black Mithril, of which the knowledge to create is long-lost. Each are over a foot long – when held in reverse the tip extends just barely beyond Yisi’s elbow. He believes they actually grew with him because his arms were much shorter when he first started practicing with them, and they have always been just the perfect length. When held in reverse, Yisi can use his forearms to block incoming melee attacks – even large greatsword attacks are deflected without the force transferring into his arms and shoulders – as if magic were present.

When Yisi heard that Sune had a hand in creating the Blade of Roses, he commented

“May the Lady Firehair have a hand in my creation as well.”

 

This blade possesses an unearthly splendor, and it is likely that Sune, the goddess of beauty and passion, had a hand in its creation. The effect it has on the wielder is immediate, and more than once in its history has this sword has been the secret behind a lackluster soldier’s sudden elevation at court.
