Atvissan is an old mercenary who "retired" to serve the Silverbirds. He found his faith and his devotion to the Phoenix (PHOENIX!) on a mission in the mountains after nearly dying in a fall. He saw the Phoenix rise in the sky above him, and he wept with joy at the beauty. His current mission is to find the firebirds Manifest the world over and ask them to meet the Phoenix in the heart of Mati.
