Teresu Gido
From Flight From Darkness
[edit] Personnel File: Teresu Gido
Teresu Gido is a 211 year old Water Aspect and the leader of both the Immaculate and the Imperialists. Though not an official member of the General Staff, his position as the most senior Sohei on the Dream means he is often called on for advice on spiritual matters.
[edit] Description:
Gido is exceedingly tall and saber-thin, with only slight blue-green highlights in his hair to indicate his heritage. His blood is fairly thin and of poor stock for such a powerful Exalt, and almost two centuries of pushing his Essence to the limit have taken their toll. Gido does not look old, precisely, but his face is drawn and his hair is notably thinning.
[edit] History:
Gido was out of Lookshy during the Siege, on a trip to meet one of his former students in the field. For good or ill, he was unable to return to city before the Dream rescued most of its inhabitants. He was found guarding a group of refugees several miles north of Nexus, utilizing his sorcery to gather multiple powerful elemental to guard them. Once aboard the Dream he was active in organizing the Lookshian survivors into a coherent group, only to have much of his work shattered by the Reaver Plague. In the aftermath of that disaster he once again helped the Last Legion pick up the pieces, though his constant pushes for more power for the Dragon-Blood alienated him from the rest of the Dreams leadership, preventing him from ascending to the General Staff. He remained a powerful voice within the Lookshian community, however, a status that has only grown with time. He can currently be considered the second most politically powerful member of the Last Legion, a development that has most of the other factions warily watching him.
