Tan-Sul

Tan-Sul was a Living Janastone in the Northmarch region of Equis.

Description
Tan-Sul resembled all others of his kind: a human-shaped mass of Janastone, void of any distinguishing facial features.

Personality
Tan-Sul exhibited the singular, built-in purposefulness of all Living Janastones, as forced into their race by Avarshinah.

He also exhibited curiosity about the world at large, which he expressed with a childlike naivete.

Abilities
Tan-Sul was capable of using High Birth magic to a limited extent, though he rarely used this ability. He was also able to fuse with qashra, as he did with Nel Stormeyes for a time.

History
One of the last Living Janastones to be created, Tan-Sul was sent to the Northmarch region of Equis for its proximity to Jana's Peak. He found himself waiting in a ruin on the edge of Torm, where he was found by Jakos and the werewolves of the Cult of the Winter Moon, who worshiped him as a god.

Eager to fulfill his purpose, Tan-Sul merged with the qashra Nel Stormeyes when he arrived with his companions, asking to be taken to Stenbruk. Nel Stormeyes did as he was asked, and Tan-Sul laid the path for the rest of the Living Janastones to converge on the monastery. Avarshinah intended for their power to be used to restore the link between the Material Plane and the Cradle of Creation, but the ritual was twisted by Tahl, who instead used the collection of High Birth magic with a spell written in the Renascentia Arcanum to begin the resurrection of Aal.

This ritual destroyed the Living Janastones, including Tan-Sul.
