“	I first envisioned Silas as a medieval version of Hannibal Lechter.	„
	~ R.J. Hanson

Personality

The only people Silas seemingly respects are those who are equal to, or more dangerous and powerful than he is. Lady Dru, Rogash, Lynneare, Isd'kislota, and so on. Anyone else who can be taken advantage of, should and will be taken advantage of. He's shown to be incredibly patient, enacting revenge on anyone who crosses him and putting anyone else who tries back in place. Silas ate the finger of Uriel-Ka; taking the opportunity to display his strength and the consequences of underestimating and threatening him.

Silas wears the guise of immaturity as needed, in a bid to get opponents to underestimate him. His craftiness makes him one of the most dangerous people in Stratvs.

Fires That Forge

Silas murdered his parents, and skillfully plays the factions and power players who attempt to use the murders for political gain. While going about his research and studies at Sanctum Lacra, he learns about a vampire and begins research into how to find her, and how to become a Lord of Chaos.

Silas eventually meets Dru, to who he pledges his service as he finishes his effort to become a Lord of Chaos.

After being blackmailed by Lady Evalynne and Uriel-Ka, he burned down Sanctum Lacra. When asked about it by his Lady, Dru, he stated that he had "nothing more to gain from studying there".^{[citation needed]}

He confronts his brother, Dunewell at the remains of Sanctum Lacra.
