Ieoan of Roszon

Part of Characters of Juhnvechteya
Ieoan of Roszon was a theologian, soldier, and burgher from Roszon. He would found the Ieoaner School of Thought, a teaching of Werranism.
Born in 231 VC to a citizen family of Roszon, Ieoan joined the city’s Rangers by about 250, and would patrol the roads and swamps which ran between the city and its outlying villages. 
His experiences fighting the native Syhtian bandits in this time would shape his later theological works. By 270 VC, he is listed as a burgher of the city, and by 273 Ieoan had published his first theological treatise, Arkhas and the Demons, a New Look at foreign ‘Gods’, in which he made the claim that all gods, aside from Arkhas, were demons in disguise, deceiving their worshippers into granting them power. He would publish several further codices on the subject, expanding upon his argument as well as countering common attacks on his thesis. 
Ieoan would die in 291 at the age of 60, during a plague of disease which affected Syhtia.
