Silkor and Korsil

**Silkor Iosadra** and **Korsil Iosadra** (born 1623 AT) are two Thamunzar Celestials who wander throughout Azgo and southern lands. Both men are twin brothers.

## Appearance

Like all Tuxavins, Silkor and Korsil have dark brown skin and curly white hair. Silkor has blue eyes, and Korsil has dark green eyes.

Silkor prefers wearing colourful and lighter clothes, and he cuts his hair short. Korsil likes to keep his hair long.

## Personality

Silkor is a very curious man, while his brother Korsil likes fighting and action. Both of them love to play with puzzles.

Silkor likes roasted meat, cool weather and rain, swimming, bathing, learning languages. Korsil likes martial arts, night, dinosaurs, and sparring.

## History

In 1782 AT, Korsil finds an egg. He keeps it and a baby raptor hatches, and raises the raptor as his pet.

They were sent to Jerde to scout the region of Azgo (then known as Zaqo) and purge it of any demonic infestations. Through the centuries, they became fascinated by Jerdiskar society, wandering incognito to observe the peoples of Zaqo and Rabydos.

Among their adventures include:

* In northern Azgo near the Josolchir border, Silkor gives suggestions to an architect as he builds a trove that he found in his sister's farm. In southern Azgo at Milotar, Korsil appears with a raptor to help a young woman escape an abandoned factory.
	+ This was Kojarena's first attempt to turn the brothers to his bidding.
* In Turodaron, Silkor helps his fellow Tuxavins build an outpost and an embassy in a ruined Ardeschen fortress. In Rabydos, Korsil guides an expedition to uncover a trove of artifacts within a ruined ziggurat, battling an army of Ontemazei and monsters as they venture into its depths. After the expedition is victorious, more Tuxavins build another outpost at the top of the pyramid with a stairway, where the President of Rabydos, the local Lampguard, and the Guardians of Rabydos were invited to use Celestial technology to wipe out various hauntings throughout the region.
* Going to the Jasper Mountains to help a group of Lausorijo uncover a Celestial fortress, protect the explorers as they venture into a Celestial dimension. Then seal the portal before the army of Celestials would reach it and intrude into the world. They afterwards help the Lausorijo contact his homeworld of Tuxavin.
* Visiting the dreams of a rich and a poor person, asking them to choose between several decisions. The arrogant rich man was left in a far away cropfield while his brother took his ill-gotten wealth and spent it to build a school, while the poor person was given several tools to build some Celestial machines and earn money.
* Purging a defiled Vozonid temple in Azgo from a horde of demons and sealing a portal to the Void.
* Sending a group of murderers to various harsh climates.
* Finding a ruined castle to the southeast of Vozolaz, defeating a warlord who used sorcery to enslave the locals
* Helping a group of adventurers to rescue their friends from a demon lady. This was when Korsil was injured, so he was brought to Siangwaan to be healed.
* While visiting a chariot race at Kikori, they help the Kikorians fight back against an army of Celestials. That Celestial army thought that Kikori would be an ideal site to establish a new capital for their empire, for their dimension was torn apart in a great war.
* Helping several younger people in Hmoong Av reassemble and excavate some alien ruins, and retrieve Celestial artifacts.
	+ This was Kojarena's second attempt to turn the brothers to his bidding.
* Sabotaging the slave-lords of Mirukuz by trapping them into Chaos and helping thousands of slaves escape to Bivos.
* Sabotaging various Wannaenid superweapons, rescue some Celestials from being harvested, and then defeating the rival warlords who fought them, distracting the Wannaenids and giving time for the rebels to liberate their own countries.
* As they just had a tour of Dalatar, from its workshops to its gyms, the trickster god Kojarena trapped them within a magical dimension. At first, they accept to see what kind of "gifts" would the god offer, until Kakadu attacks the dimension to harvest the brothers. While the sorcerer battles the trickster god for control of the two Celestials, Silkor uses his new powers to cripple Kakadu and escape the dimension with his brother, ending up in another Celestial dimension. They quickly return to Jerde while two armies of Celestials wage war on each other.
* Punishing a general who tried to experiment with Celestial artifacts and sorcery, and then helping his Ontemazei slaves escape
* Encouraging the Chairman of Azgo and his Gryphonist advisor to overuse some Celestial artifacts left behind by the Konjors, only for the devises to backfire and for them to be pursued by cursed dolls.
	+ This was Kojarena's fourth attempt to turn the brothers to his bidding. He offers the dolls to serve them as their personal warriors, who bow to them, in exchange for helping him build his own kingdom on Jerde.
* Rescuing Ontemazei and other prisoners from three death camps
* Defeating a sorcerer who attempted to summon an army of ghosts to conquer Azgo during the civil war. Kojarena suggests that they split chunks of metal and use their combined magic to create an army of robots to fight the ghosts.

Their ultimate goal diverted away from their objective as demon-slayers: they wanted to learn more about Jerde and retrieve various lost artifacts.

In four of these adventures, the trickster god Kojarena tempts them into enhancing the surrounding magic so he will appear. Although they sometimes act on his requests and tricks, they refuse to summon the god. They thought that if he were summoned, he might exterminate more people and replace them with ghosts and droids, even as he assured that he will not repeat the massacres.

## Relationships

Korsil's pet raptor is known as Thalöxon, a male raptor with blue and gold scales and a crest of violet feathers. Its species, the *sharozas*, is immortal, living for hundreds of years as healthy, energetic adults.
