Yanso

Elemental Being of Shadows

Physically, Yanso can look like anyone he wanted. He is a master of disguise and can perfectly copy someone down to the smallest detail. However, at all times and in all forms he will have a small black gemstone somewhere on his body. He reflects very strongly on both the elemental planes of darkness and light - for he is one of the rare creatures that walk in the land of shadows between these planes. He has no magical aura and only reflects on the Astral Plane as the last victim he copied.

As long as light and dark exists so do the Shadows. Inside these shadows are creatures like Yanso. Although not its rulers they are one of the few that can leave the half-light, even if for a little while. He noticed when Rhian was gathering the rest of the shadizar and moved to investigate. When she emptied the elf's body to make room for Llanowin - he knew he found exactly what he wanted. Yanso wanted to strike out at all the injustices that kept him trapped between the light and darkness. He needed Rhian to give him a body as well. When he made himself known a battle between Llanowin and Yanso erupted. Just when he was going to kill her - Rhian stopped the fight. The two of them came to an agreement, he would join the Shadizar and she would give him something to take over empty bodies.

Yanso likes to move around the fringes of any battle before committing himself. He will never strike out unless he is completely sure of winning. Only when its safe to attack will he make his move. Then he does so swiftly, casually, and deadly. Since his powers all depend on a the half-light he thrives in Yanso rarely engages in straight combat. He prefers to pick the time and place he will strike - this makes him the most independent of the Shadizar. If needed in combat he will soulshift into a fighting form and then use his powers to protect him.
