Volkain

The wind is a capricious element, it has no bounds, and it’s free to roam the lands. The same is also so for Volkain, he’s exactly like the wind, in that he is untamed, and at times, vengeful.

Take The Everlasting Storm, for example. Contrary to popular belief (to all of those who haven’t seen it) it is commonly thought of as a giant tornado, ever-swirling, ever-dangerous. Or maybe even a raging thunderstorm ripping at the ground with bolts of lightning. But it’s not, it’s just a large rainstorm that’s been lasting forever, and has never showed signs of waning. Thus, sometimes people would take Volkain for a whimsical fool, but anyone that has ever met him would testify that he’s a very imposing figure.

Volkain always keeps some air of elegance around him, garbed in flowing, swirling robes of a light tan color with the hood pulled over his head, hiding all but strands of white hair hanging out from the fold of fabric. Wherever he goes, he carries an ornate, yet amazingly functional spear with him.

He’s constantly in disagreement with Dio, frequently warring with his brother to the point where the very land is made a target. On one such occassion, when Dio was especially angered, he literally hurled mountains into the lands of Valanthus, inadvertently creating the Pillar Mountains in the process. Though, it’s sometimes clear that Volkain is the instigator against Dio, taking each opportunity to annoy and frustrate his brother as much as possible. Which brings to mind the fact that if Dio and Volkain weren't, from the beginning, warring with eachother, then Volkain was probably the one to start it.

He’s somewhat egotistical, being slightly cocky, yet alluring at the same time. This personality quirk can be interpreted into the Ears of Volkain, a geographical site which is merely used for entertainment of mortals, and his personal enjoyment. Much to everyone’s ignorance.

Volkain is a very spiritual man, and as such, he’s not very much on the muscle department, as with his teachings of Volkainism that the spirit is more important than the body. Though the body is important, it’s just that the spirit is both a more rewarding and more enlightening thing to focus on.

Not a practitioner of Volkainism has ever found a reason to deny such to date. But if you mention Volkainism’s teachings to a Diome, the common response would be something along the lines of the Volkainites being nothing but a bunch of flighty people not doing enough work.
