Iolaos Synesius Overview Overview Iolaos is the poster child for youth without direction. He found fulfillment in music and the concert scene. He also found that hedonism seemed to soothe his spirit. After his embrace, he pursues this almost to a detriment. He prefers to hang out in bars and clubs after attending concerts or performances.

Preferring to dress in black leather pants, loose-fitting cotton shirts of various colors, and a black leather jacket. He was fairly athletic from his youth onward in training for various sports as his family tried to figure out what he should do, and he kept those habits through his embrace. History History Iolaos has always been a bit of an oddity. Born into opulence, and a prominent Greek family, he never knew the need for the material things of life. Yet, somehow he felt like he was missing something. And then he found it. The community of people who were fans of Gothic looks, and Rock music was far from anything resembling his family or his life at home. He began dressing differently, his flowing dark locks needing little attention to fit in with his new family, his olive skin however was another matter. Nevertheless, they accepted him as one of their own. He hid his background from his chosen family, feeling they might reject him for not facing financial hardships in his life. One day, Iolaos met a gorgeous woman in a bar after a concert. The darkness of the room seemed to cling to her like a blanket. And it was this woman who would change his life forever.
