'''Xisisrefliel''', also known as '''Xisis''' or '''Foil''' for short, is a [[dragon (cosmere)|dragon]], originally from [[Yolen]], who for a point lived on [[Lumar]] in the [[Crimson Sea]].{{wob ref|14133}}{{book ref|tress|31}}{{wob ref|16182}} Because of this, the sea became known as 'the domain of the dragon.'{{book ref|tress|23}}

{{image|Xisis by ohnoesaxel.jpg|side=left|width=300px}}Xisis has black scales, silvery hair, and [[Dragonsteel (metal)|dragonsteel]] ridges, claws and horns. He is primarily interested in his research and is unconcerned with desires of mortals.{{book ref|tress|51}}{{book ref|tress|34}} He is very large, around the size of four humans standing on top of one another.{{book ref|tress|51}}

There is only one being on [[Lumar]] that he fears, that being the [[Sorceress]], and he refuses to in any way stand in her way.{{book ref|tress|52}}

He is rather honest, feeling no need to lie; however, he is rather imperious, and the exact truth of his statements can be warped by his own self-image.{{wob ref|16142}} He is rather honest about the way he personally feels he treats his slaves, believing that he treats them well.{{wob ref|16142}}{{book ref|tress|52}}

He is particularly interested in the decomposition cycle of the [[Aether]]s that engender the seethe on Lumar. This is the primary subject of his research, and the reason for him living at the bottom of the spore seas.{{wob ref|16142}}{{wob ref|16187}} He also wishes to master the aethers;{{book ref|sa4|part=ars}} this is something he has likely achieved, as he is able to control the crimson spores that make up the sea in which he made his domain{{book ref|tress|50}} and to temporarily cure people of their [[spore eater]] affliction.{{book ref|tress|31}}{{book ref|tress|52}}

As a [[dragon (cosmere)|dragon]], he possesses an extremely long lifespan,{{wob ref|2655}}{{wob ref|5730}}{{wob ref|15310}} and the ability to shapeshift through a currently unknown method.{{book ref|tress|51}}{{wob ref|12076}}{{wob ref|7171}}{{wob ref|148}}{{wob ref|16187}}

Xisis is also seemingly a Tenth Heightening [[Awakener]], able to Command Awakened cloth without words.{{book ref|tress|52}}{{book ref|wb|part=ars}}

Through unknown means he is also able to control and shape the spores of the Crimson Sea to his whim, allowing him to form tunnels to his base of operations at the bottom of the ocean. This base is itself a series of tunnels made out of the crimson spores.{{book ref|tress|50}}

Xisis has lived on [[Lumar]] in a palace at the bottom of the [[Crimson Sea]] for hundreds of years before the events of the exodus of the [[Sorceress]].{{book ref|tress|31}} His arrival has some connection to the departure of the [[Iriali]], but the exact nature of this relation is unknown.{{wob ref|16140}} During this time he has been researching the ecosystem at the bottom of the spore seas,{{book ref|tress|51}} as well as the water cycle and the decomposition of spores.{{wob ref|16142}}

To help with his chores and research, he has been making trades, taking a slave in exchange for a boon.{{book ref|tress|34}} [[Captain Crow]] takes the ''[[Crow's Song]]'' above his palace and is able to get an audience with him in order to sell [[Tress]] to him. Tress, however, is able to convince him to take Captain Crow instead.{{book ref|tress|52}}

Like many [[dragon (cosmere)|dragon]]s, his home base is in [[Silverlight]].{{wob ref|16187}}

* Brandon first revealed Xisis' name when asked if there are any [[cosmere]] characters with names starting with X by an artist working on a "cosmere A-Z" fanart collection.{{wob ref|14133}}
