"Do not follow me. Follow the assembly’s voice—it is the only leader that cannot be corrupted." - Vi Lyssara
Vi Lyssara was born to two parents, Pax and Serdar Lyssara, who were both ethnically Mirasan and were both sailors and dissenters who defied a period an oppressive period in modern-day Hêvîstan's history. From the early age of 12, Vi had witnessed the ethnic oppression of the Mirasan ethnic group, including raids, disappearances, and the burning of villages and towns who were predominantly Mirasan. At age 13, her parents were executed by state forces for organizing clandestine language schools. She fled to the forests of Biratî and started associating with weapons smugglers and guerilla forces, further radicalizing her against state violence and oppression of ethnic minorities.
By the age of 20, she had emerged as a strategist and a radical after spending years organizing with her local Mirasan guerilla group, carrying out ambushes against the regime. She rejected both state socialism and capitalism, envisioning a world built on local communes, citizens assemblies, direct democracy, and ethnic pluralism. She began organizing the local guerilla groups together to perform a surprise offensive at age 23, coordinating with guerilla groups in similar regions in the decentralized network Tora Parastina Civakê, where each region established communes. Within a few months of this offensive, commonly referred to as the Sunflower Uprising, the government was overthrown, where these decentralized networks of communes replaced the former system. With the oppressive government gone, she began writing the Charter for an Indivisible Confederation of Communities. It was then ratified with approval from all the communes within Hêvîstan.
Due to the ethnic repressing of the Mirassian people, she couldn't perform what most other Mirasan's had the privilege of doing: exploring the world of the seas. After the Sunflower Uprising, however, she visited cities across the world, befriending people like Zéphila Geoveva of the Principado de Portágueda and Alexandra Veyriss, as well as reconnecting with her Mirasan cultural ancestry. She attempted to meet her ideological inspirations she had read while serving in the guerilla armies, but was unsuccessful. However, even after the Sunflower Uprising, she continued to serve in the TPC and playing a large role in advising the group's military decisions.
Later in her life, she had heard news of what the Riddenheim government was attempting to do in their own country, of going down the path of autocracy, dictatorship, isolationism, and aggressiveness. She had decided to investigate the premises of why Riddenheim was implementing these policies and published her findings in the JZCars Report. After calling for nations to no longer recognize Riddenheim as the legitimate government of it's territories, she had entered the Hêvîstani-Riddenheim War and later the Hêvîstani-Summer Company War. She managed to negotiate the end of the war with Summer Company, but negotiations failed with Riddenheim due to a lack of cooperation with Riddenheim.
During the Hêvîstani-Riddenheim War, she had discovered an newly orphaned boy going by the name of Scan who had fled his country to reside in the Communes of Hêvîstan to escape the authoritative state. She soon adopted him, raising him within the communal values she had fought to establish and teaching him the principles of restorative justice, mutual aid, and cultural preservation.
With the wars over, she continues to help lead Hêvîstan with her advising local communes on policies, without enforcing her policies on them.
