'''Delius''' is a former [[Lord Admiral]], the Taisha of the [[Helm]], on the Dayside of [[Taldain]].{{book ref|
== Appearance and Personality ==
Delius has long brown hair and stubble on his face. He maintains the facade of a drunken sot, constantly drinking, or as he puts it, wasting wine. He wears a blue coat over a white shirt and brown pants. He carries an ornamental sword with him held in a sheath at his waist held in place by a long shoulder strap.{{book ref|
== History ==

Due to his hatred for Vey, throughout his time as Taisha he would oppose him in every way he could, in every vote of the council he would vote for the opposite of what Vey did, regardless of the consequences for himself or the Helm.{{book ref|
The Helm sent two messengers to visit his home in [[Kezare]] to attempt to convince him to curb his drinking due to the cost and disgrace it was causing to their Profession. He called their suggestions boring and refused to listen to them. As the two messengers were leaving [[Taishin#The Lord Mastrell|Lord Mastrell]] [[Kenton]] arrived with [[Aarik]] and [[Ais]] to meet with him. Delius offered each of them some wine to drink, Kenton refused, but Aarik happily accepted. Kenton asked Delius, bluntly, if he would be voting for him in the upcoming vote on the Diem's fate. Delius replied that he was going to vote the opposite of whatever Vey would vote, and that no amount of convincing him will change his mind. Kenton tried to convince him, but Delius told him that he would simply rather not think about it. After Kenton left Delius and his son discussed the political situation of Lossand. His son explained to him that most of the [[Kelzi]]n are [[Kerztian]] and therefore they hate the Diem and its sand masters.{{book ref|

|Boring, boring, and boring! No, I shall face this world drunk, or I shan't face it at all. Thank you for the suggestion, but since I judge it to be inane, I shall ignore it.
