One of the major protagonists in the first IOS book (hopefully to be finished this year). He meets up with the main protagonist Deki at the major fork leading to Sanctus and Tianim. Little about his is known, and no amount of prodding by the inquisitive Orc seems to change that.

Hyo is a well educated wanderer whose major driving force is unknown to everyone (apparently even him). He knows things that given his sightlessness he should not and he fights with a skill that borders on the super human. Hyo loves to live vicariously through others, meeting and joining with whoever he happens to find, his eclectic nature tending to get all involved into varying levels of trouble.

Hyo is very protective of his robe and wears it at nearly all times, the hood of his robe when worn hangs far over his face masking his identity completely. However even when thrown back much of his face is covered by a thick leather band that completely conceals the upper half of his face. He is roughly the same height as Deki however quite a bit lighter. His robe hangs loose on him and doesn’t appear to have been made specifically for him.

What, if any, purpose he may have is an ever growing question that becomes all the more clouded as the events of Bellum unfold in “Isle of Bellum: Birth of the Wyrd Mage”. Did this last line come across as an advertisement? Drat! I knew I should have taken a few courses in sneaky marketing!

More short bios to come as my good friend and adopted brother David H. draws more concept art for the characters . He is the visual muse to my literary creations. If you be a lady, are single and in your early 20’s, you should totally date him. The more the merrier I say!
