Li'liok

Overview
The Dragon Speaker of Solon and father-like figure to Samuel Bayard Fariman.

Physical Appearance
A tall elf with an almost sickly-thin build. He has a cold, calculating face and intense eyes. He dresses elegantly in the latest fashions of the Solon nation, a sign to others of his stature. He wears many pieces of expensive looking jewelery: necklaces, rings, and bracelets.

Personality
He is an elf of extreme logic and reason. Everything he does is the result of cold calculation. While he displays something akin to fatherly affection in regards to Fariman, he views feeling emotion when making decisions as being completely unreasonable. He is extremely intelligent, and is considered the foremost expert in both arcane and divine magic. He is a capable leader who follows Solon's prime directive to a tee: the pursuit and acqusition of knowledge before all else.

Backstory
As he got older, he began seeking a replacement to train. When his first protege, Paris, betrayed him, he went through several other possibilities before coming to Fariman. He took the young gensai in and began to treat him like a son. The boy was raised to grow to be the perfect replacement. When he was ready, he sent Fariman on several quests throughout the world in the name of the pursuit of knowledge. One of these quests would lead Fariman into the Battle of the Summit, though the exact details of this quest are still unknown.

Campaign Log
After traveling through the ogre caves outside Pacil, the Party found Li'liok controlling the minds of many of the ogres. He was apparently in the middle of some experiment to gain control of an ogre army to add to the forces of Solon. He was annoyed at the interruption of the party. He also informed his student that he was now considered a traitor and an enemy-of-the-state ever since word reached them about his involvement in the purge of the Soren Labs. Fariman argued his innocence, saying he didn't want to purge the labs and all the responsibility lay with Marcus Hildebrand. Li'liok then gave Fariman the chance to redeem himself by killing Marcus.

Fariman fought Marcus upon Li'liok's order, but thier fight was interrupted by Paris who froze both of thier bodies in place to stop the fight. Li'liok and Paris argued, Li'liok calling Paris a traitor and Paris calling Li'liok "a relic of a dead age." Li'liok's attack on Paris failed, and Paris then teleported Li'liok away.
