Issola
From the Lyorn Records of the Dragaeran Empire
- This page is about the House of the Issola. For the book, see Issola (book). For the animal, see Issola (animal).
The Issola are known as natural diplomats, and peacemakers. They tend toward grace, tact, style, and beauty.
Like all diplomats, however, they are capable of quick decisive attacks on an adversary without warning; when it is in their self-interest to do so.
Many Issola serve in a public relations capacity (such as Teldra), while they are also commonly entertainers (such as Sara).
[edit] Role of the Cycle
When a Dzur Emperor grows too rash and commits an act that costs himself face, or even his life, it is time for the grace of an Issola.
An Issola Emperor will attempt to sooth the Court and the Empire after the rash actions of his Dzur predecessor, and lead the Empire with tact and diplomacy.
Eventually, however, a problem or situation will arise that requires more than tact—it will require the ruthless tenacity of a Tsalmoth.
