Background / History

Siosand is a Star Tower Prophet and Sart's junior. Tower Master Julian assigned both men to investigate the ritual traces surrounding Tien's death and Leyden City's Crawling Hand Cult incident; Siosand's role was to identify the cult and trace the source of its aura. 17 19

He arrived after Sart's prophecy ritual nearly failed because Sart had not first established a marking ritual. Siosand argued that, had he been present, he could have followed the soul imprint directly and avoided the danger. 29

During the sewer investigation, he tracked the cultists through Tien's bronze card and detected multiple residual heretical energies beneath Leyden City's filtration layer. 33 When Aaron and Sart fell into an underground cavity, Siosand summoned Dream Princess and paid for her assistance to recreate the Fossilize to Mud spell, allowing him and Alice to pursue them. 36

Although he initially waited for an opening rather than joining the fight immediately, he had agreed to protect Aaron after Sart relinquished his claim to compete as the Star Tower's successor. 35 He later intervened against Tog with Banshee's Howl, was captured by a shadow hand, and ultimately administered his precious Blazing Sun Potion to save Aaron at Sart's demand. 39 41

Appearance

Siosand wears a linen robe similar to Sart's, marked with the Star Tower's tower-shaped emblem. 29

• Silver hair cut to ear length. 29
• Light green eyes. 29
• Usually wears a polite, mocking smile. 29
• His Star Tower robe's rune can emit a blinding silver-white light while he tracks targets. 33

Personality

Siosand is proud of his exceptional advancement speed and status as the Star Tower's strongest Silver Tier Prophet. He is bluntly critical of Sart's ritual mistakes, stagnant advancement, and perceived misuse of Julian's favor. 29 30 36 43

His hostility toward Sart is rooted in resentment over Julian's preferential treatment. Siosand believes Sart received extraordinary resources despite remaining at Bronze Tier for years, while Siosand reached Silver Tier in only one year without comparable privileges. 36 38

Despite his abrasive manner, Siosand does not consider Sart talentless. He recognizes Sart's mastery of ritual formations, spice ratios, and combat-oriented simplified rituals, and demands that Sart become a senior worthy of his respect rather than retreating from advancement. 43

Abilities & Skills

Prophecy and Soul Perception

As a Silver Tier Prophet of the Gold Coin Path, Siosand can perceive spiritual and heretical energy through his soul.

• Detects residual cult energy and distinguishes the presence of multiple cultists. 33
• Uses Tien's bronze card and a tracking spell to locate a marked target below the sewer system. 33
• Can sense the emotional fluctuations of weaker Transcendents, including Aaron's fear, anxiety, curiosity, and contemplation. 35
• His soul is described as nearly immune to illusions due to his Silver Tier status. 35

Card-Assisted Tracking

Siosand uses Tien's bronze card as part of his tracking method.

• Causes the card to disintegrate and release darkness before activating its tracking effect. 33
• Draws surrounding darkness into himself, causing the Star Tower rune on his robe to shine and send out a sentient searching wave. 33
• The ability has a distance limitation, requiring him to enter the sewers rather than track from afar. 33

Dream Princess Contract

Siosand has contracted Dream Princess, a Silver Tier Dream Realm creature bestowed by Julian as an advancement gift. 36

• Can summon Dream Princess for Dream Realm spells and assistance. 36
• Used her Spell Replication to recreate the residual structure of Fossilize to Mud and open a route underground. 36
• Paid for assistance with “pleasant dreams”; each use results in nightmares during his sleep, where he must find his way back to reality or risk becoming Dream Princess's food. 36
• Dream Princess was forced back into the Dream Realm after taking a Hand of Shadow attack. 41

Banshee's Howl

Siosand commands Dream Princess to use Banshee's Howl. 39

• The singing attack splits and temporarily repels Tog's black fog. 39
• He warns allies to cover their ears before its use. 39

Equipment / Items

• Star Tower robe — linen robe bearing a tower-shaped Star Tower symbol; its rune manifests during tracking. 29 33
• Tien's bronze card — used as a focus for tracking the cultist connected to Tien's ritual. 33
• Blazing Sun Potion — a drop supplied by Julian for emergencies; Siosand used it to save Aaron despite strongly objecting to its expenditure. 41 42

Relationships

• Sart — His senior and principal rival. Siosand resents Julian's favor toward Sart, but recognizes Sart's technical talent and repeatedly tries to force him to pursue advancement. 29 36 43
• Julian — Tower Master of the Star Tower and Siosand's teacher. Julian gave Siosand Dream Princess and entrusted him with protecting Sart during the Leyden City mission. 36 43
• Aaron — Initially dismissive of Aaron's low rank and rapid advancement, Siosand later protects him under an agreement with Sart and uses the Blazing Sun Potion to save him. 30 35 41
• Dream Princess — His contracted Dream Realm creature. Her services require Siosand to endure nightmares as payment. 36
• Alice — Accompanies Siosand into the underground cavity to search for Aaron and Sart; he explains his resentment of Sart to her during the pursuit. 36
