“I don’t care for the hearts of mortals, Except for how they taste. ”

—Xisis rebutting Tress.[1]

Xisisrefliel, or Xisis for short, is a dragon, originally from Yolen, currently living on Lumar in the Crimson Sea.[2][3] Because of this the sea is known as 'the domain of the dragon.'[4]

Appearance and Personality

Xisis has black scales, silvery hair, and dragonsteel ridges, claws and horns. He is primarily interested in his research and is unconcerned with desires of mortals.[5][6] He is very large, around the size of four humans standing on top of one another.[5]

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.[1]

He is rather honest, feeling no need to lie, though the exact truth can be warped by his own self-image.[citation needed]

Attributes and Abilities

As a dragon, he possesses an extremely long lifespan,[7][8][9] and the ability to shapeshift through a currently unknown method.[5][10][11][12]

Xisis has the ability to cure diseases including that of spore eaters.[3][1] He claims that this is temporary, only lasting a year or two, unless the person remains in his vicinity.[1]

Xisis is also seemingly a Tenth Heightening Awakener, able to Command Awakened cloth without words.[1][13]

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.[14]

History

Xisis has lived on Lumar in a palace at the bottom of the Crimson Sea for hundreds of years before the events of Tress of the Emerald Sea[3], his arrival has some connection to the departure of the Iriali, but the exact nature of this relation is unknown.[citation needed] During this time he has been researching the ecosystem at the bottom of the spore seas,[5] as well as the water cycle and the decomposition of spores.[15] To help with his chores and research, he has been making trades, taking a slave in exchange for a boon.[6] 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.[1]

Trivia

  • Brandon first revealed the 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.[2]
