'''Yvlon Byres''' is a Human [Silversteel Armsmistress] and a [Lady] of [[Byres Family|House Byres]]. Originally the leader of the [[Silver Spears]], after her old teammates were wiped out by [[Skinner]], she joined the reformed [[Horns of Hammerad]].

== Appearance ==
Yvlon is a tall, gorgeous woman,<ref name="2.25">[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/05/14/2-21/ Chapter 2.25]</ref> with long flowing golden hair,<ref name="1.11 R">[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/01/11/1-11-r/ Chapter 1.11 R]</ref> fair skin, great teeth, a shapely nose, and nice ears. She has the faintest trace of a horrible scar across her left face.<ref name="2.32 H" /> Her arms were injured after they were fused to metal by a Fire Elemental in Albez. After changing her class to [Silversteel Armsmistress], her arms are now made of silver and steel. Their form is malleable and can be shaped into armor, bludgeons, razors, or their default skin-like form. One of Yvlon's feet is also made of silversteel after being chopped off during Zeladona's Trial of a Thousand Blades.<ref>[[Chapter 9.30]]</ref>

== Personality ==
{{quote
|quote=''Hello. My name is Yvlon Byres. I’m a member of the Horns of Hammerad, a Gold-ranked team. Some may call me the ‘Silver Killer of Izril’, but I assure you, the truth is I’m hardly so dangerous. I got my name fighting in the Coliseum of Monarchs in Chandrar, and my team has fought everything from Adult Crelers to monsters in dungeons like the Ruins of Albez.''
|speaker=Yvlon's prepared self-introduction {{ref|10.05}}
}}

Yvlon presents a calm, collected exterior to the outside world and strives to maintain an image of composure and control, even in moments of vulnerability. Beneath this façade, however, she struggles with deeply suppressed anger. From childhood, she was taught to repress her emotions so thoroughly that she remained unaware of her own anger issues. This loss of awareness worsened after she gained [Berserker’s Rage], which caused her to black out and rampage during combat. She later learned to manage this condition after receiving instruction from [[Berr|Berr the Berserker]], making her anger a ''strength'' rather than a liability.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.55 (Pt. 1)}}</ref> 

Yvlon is the most level-headed member among her team. She is unwavering loyal to her teammates. She is especially close with [[Ksmvr]], who she considers as a younger brother. While very straight-laced, her time spent with the Horns of Hammerad has somewhat relaxed her, though she disapproves of inappropriate behavior. While initially considering necromancy to be an abomination and disliked Pisces for being a [Necromancer], Yvlon would come to consider him a friend and comrade-in-arms. She has an something of an inferiority complex towards her more-talented siblings, feeling undeserving of her parents' praise. She is frustrated with Ylawes' overprotectiveness and often avoided him when he was trying to convince her to return home. Socially, Yvlon is notably awkward and is described as having an “inverse talent” for conversation—rendering any topic bland and generic to the point of discomfort.<ref name=":1" /> Additionally, often comes across as unintentionally intimidating, projecting aggression and challenge without realizing it. Despite believing she is behaving politely, her expressions, posture, and mannerisms frequently cause others to perceive her as hostile or confrontational, drawing attention and unease even among powerful individuals. She is largely unaware of her intimidating reputation as a “rabid metal dog,” and frequently expresses confusion over why others find her frightening.     

She possesses a strong sense of justice and fairness, reacting with outrage when others are treated unjustly or when she believes a wrong has been committed. This was notably demonstrated when she felt betrayed by Ceria and fought with her for days after discovering that the half-Elf had concealed a Relic from the rest of the group.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.36 HO}}</ref> Yvlon is fiercely determined, as shown by her decision to continue adventuring after the loss of her entire team and later despite severe injuries to her arms. In battle, she is courageous to the point of recklessness, willingly charging a Flame Elemental and even striking an Adult Creler with her own severed arm.      

When she gained her metallic arms after her class consolidation, Yvlon had expressed unease towards her new arms, believing them to be unnatural. She was later horrified to learn of the possibility of turning completely metal, vomiting in shock and horror at the prospect.<ref>[[Chapter 8.81]]</ref> However, [[Taletevirion]] would tell her to not let the metal define her.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.30}}</ref>  She later reconfigures them to be more arm-like, recreating veins and bones within them so that they become more natural.<ref name=":1">[[Chapter 9.36 HO]]</ref>

== Background ==
She is part of the [[Byres family]], a minor noble family, which is distantly related to the [[The Reinhart Family|Reinhart family]].<ref name="1.11 R" /> From a young age, she practiced swordsmanship until her early teens, giving it up for four years until returning to it when she was seventeen.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 7.45}}</ref> 

She used to dream of becoming a [Knight], like the female heroines in her books.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 6.64}}</ref> 
== Chronology ==

=== Volume 1 ===
In [[Celum]], Yvlon and her [[Silver Spears|team]] participates in a meeting with Silver-ranked teams organizing an raid to the newly discovered [[ruins of Liscor]]. Afterwards, she introduces herself to [[Ryoka Griffin]]. Having heard about the classless and levelless Runner from her aunt [[Magnolia Reinhart]], she challenges Ryoka to a fight <ref>{{VERef|Chapter 1.47 R}}</ref> Irritated by Yvlon's beauty and Magnolia's interference, Ryoka accepts and uses her MMA training to beat the adventurer. Later, Yvlon knocks out Ryoka with a punch after the Runner tries to challenge every adventurer in the room after losing her temper.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 1.48 R}}</ref>

The raid on the crypt goes disastrous when [[Skinner]] and an army of undead ambush and kill most of the adventurers including all Yvlon's team members.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 1.59 H}}</ref> During the attack, half of Yvlon's face was torn away. She and several adventurers flee to Liscor.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 1.60}}</ref> In the aftermath of [[Skinner's Attack on Liscor|Skinner's attack on Liscor]], Yvlon is non-responsive, having emotionally shutdown. While recovering in Liscor's Adventurer's Guild, she is visited by Magnolia Reinhart, who gives her a poultice for her face, and offers her encouragement. She is later visited by Ryoka as well.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 1.63}}</ref>

=== Volume 2 ===
After recovering from her injuries, Yvlon joins the new [[Horns of Hammerad]] team led by Ceria, along with [[Pisces Jealnet]] and [[Ksmvr]]. Their first fight working as a team is to help defend a nearby village from a [[Goblins|Goblin]] raiding party, along with [[Halrac Everam|Halrac the Grim]].<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 2.32 H}}</ref> Afterwards, [[Olesm Swifttail]] gives them a map of the [[Ruins of Albez]], which he obtained from [[Klbkch]]. Funded by Erin's gold, the Horns leave for Albez.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 2.33}}</ref>

=== Volume 3 ===
After nearly a week of fruitless searching, the Horns uncover an abandoned tunnel. After bypassing several traps and [[Crelers]], they arrive at an [[Magical Door|enchanted door]] that teleports them into an underground room covered in [Insanity] runes. Driven insane, Yvlon takes on the personalities of several of her relatives, including her brother. While Ceria and Ksmvr are able to cover up the runes, it takes Yvlon a while to shake off the effect. After escaping, and bypassing the door, the Horns find the personal room of Warmage [[Thresk]], filled with treasure and magical artifacts. However, the room is guarded by a Flame Elemental. While Yvlon attacks its weak point, the Elemental melts her armor, fusing the metal to her arms. The Horns are forced to flee while the Elemental destroys the entire room. However, they manage to recover some of the gold and artifacts. and leave Albez, arriving at [[Ocre]].<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 3.07 H}}</ref> Despite their losses, their expedition is deemed a success and they are celebrated by the inhabitants of the city for recovering the first treasures from Albez in years.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 3.08 H}}</ref>

The day after encountering the Flame Elemental, Yvlon received the [Wounded Warrior] class, and gained the [Ignore Pain] Skill.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 4.27 H}}</ref> In [[Remendia]], she meets with a [Healer], who examines the metal on her arms, fused down to her bones, and deems it unremovable. Afterwards, she iand the Horns stand-off against [[Reynold Ferusdam|Reynold]] and [[Ressa]], servants of Magnolia Reinhart who are trying to take Ryoka Griffin to [[Invrisil]], with the Runner having previously arrived after hearing news of the Horns' success. Ryoka ultimately acquiesces, and offers to take the Horns' treasure for repair and appraisal.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 3.10}}</ref> 

The Horns leave Remendia and go to Celum where Erin was stranded by [[Toren]]. They meet the [Innkeeper] who is working at the [[Frenzied Hare]], and watch ''Hamlet'' performed by the [[Players of Celum]]. Afterwards, they talk with Erin, who tells them how Toren had abandoned her, as well as news of Yvlon's brother helping the city of [[Esthelm]] fight off a Goblin army and undead led by the skeleton. Yvlon is appalled when she finds out Pisces had given Toren the ability to level, though she prevents Ceria from beating the [Necromancer] up. After hearing Pisces's explanation, Erin tells him to disconnect the link between her and Toren, killing the skeleton.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 3.24}}</ref> The next day, while trying to cheer Erin up, Yvlon talks to Ceria about her concern of Pisces becoming the next Necromancer, though the [Ice Mage] and [Innkeeper] both defend him. Later, Pisces and Ksmvr arrive, having recovered the magic door from Albez and demonstrate its teleportation ability. However, they end up giving it to Erin as her share of the loot and in thanks for funding their expedition.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 3.25}}</ref>

During their journey back to Liscor, [[Teriarch]] in the form of an old man teleports in front of them. Triggered by their [Dangersense]. the Horns attack him, though he defeats them with ease and without injury. However, it turns out there was a nearby Goblin army. With Teriarch's help, Ceria and Pisces conjure a snowstorm as cover.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 3.30}}</ref> Later, the Horns and Erin pass through Esthelm and sees its devastation. Yvlon learns that her brother was looking for her.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 3.32}}</ref> After arriving to [[The Wandering Inn]], Erin introduces the Horns to the Gold-rank teams, [[Griffon Hunt]] and the [[Halfseekers]].<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 3.33}}</ref> The next day, Yvlon and the adventurers help Erin organize a relief team to Esthelm.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 3.34}}</ref> The Horns hear from Ryoka about the magical items they sent her with, and are pleased with the news.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 3.39}}</ref> She participates in the Christmas event organized by Erin but is concerned when the [Innkeeper] has a meltdown.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 3.42}}</ref>

=== Volume 4 ===
Yvlon and the other adventurers from The Wandering Inn help Erin confront Wall Lord [[Ilvriss Gemscale]] and his retinue when he corners Ryoka about the circumstances of his [[Periss Veldant|lover's]] death.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 4.09}}</ref> Afterwards, the Horns divide up the artifacts that Ryoka brought back, with Yvlon receiving new enchanted armor and a Sword of Weight. She is moved by Ksmvr's insistence on also giving her the Forcefield buckler.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 4.10}}</ref>

Yvlon and most of the other non-Gnoll adventurers are intimidated and depressed by the arrival of a new Named Adventurer, [[Regrika Blackpaw]].<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 4.27 H}}</ref> She insists that the Horns take on an adventuring request from Esthelm to hunt bears, but they run into a pack of Crelers. During the fight, Yvlon's arm is broken, but she is unaffected by it thanks to her [Ignore Pain] Skill. Pisces and Ceria are disturbed by it, but Yvlon reveals her class. The other members of the Horns also reveal their classes and levels, signifying a deeper trust with each other.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 4.27 H}}</ref>

When Regrika is exposed as [[Brunkr|Brunkr's]] killer, she dispenses with her cover and chases after Ryoka per her [[Az’kerash|master's]] orders. Yvlon and the other Horns try to fight her, but is distracted by Regrika activating [Mists of Madness].<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 4.30}}</ref> She is later present for [[Ulrien Sparson]]'s funeral.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 4.31}}</ref> A few days later, Erin introducs her and the other guests to the [[Redfang Elite Warriors]] (consisting of [[Headscratcher]], [[Numbtongue]], [[Badarrow]], [[Rabbiteater]], and [[Shorthilt]]), who had saved the [Innkeeper's] life from Eater Goats.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 4.34}}</ref>

Yvlon is shocked when her brother Ylawes and his team finally track her down. Ylawes tries to convince her to return home, but she refuses, determined to stay with the Horns and track down a possibly [[Calruz|still-alive member]] lost in Liscor's dungeon. She is less than pleased when Ylawes decides to stay and help her.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 4.45}}</ref> 

=== Volume 5 ===
During the [[Face-Eater Moths|Face-Eater Moth]] attack on Liscor, the Horns, the Redfangs and [[Bird]] help defend The Wandering Inn from the inside.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.08}}</ref> After the attack, they and the other adventuring teams are celebrated in a parade.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.13}}</ref> She is furious when [[Vuliel Drae]] reveal their culpability to inciting the Face-Eater Moth swarms.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.16 S}}</ref> Later, she tries to help Ksmvr get over his fear of water, albeit unsuccessfully.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.24 L}}</ref>

The Horns and the Silver Swords venture into Liscor's dungeon; however it does not go well due to the latter's inexperience with dungeons. They are almost caught by a massive wave of [[Shield Spiders]], though Ksmvr uses a screaming wall to divert the swarm away. The Horns lead the Silver Swords directly to the [[Free Hive]]'s dungeon fortifications as a ploy to get the [[Walled Cities|Walled Cities']] attention and bring more adventurers to Liscor in the hopes for increasing the chances of finding Calruz.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.27}}</ref><ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.28}}</ref><ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.29}}</ref>

When the [[Raskghar]] and [[Cave Goblins]] attack The Wandering Inn, the Horns and the Redfangs fend them off. During the fight, Yvlon's arm is broken again, though she fails to notice it.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.34}}</ref> Despite her aversion towards necromancy, Yvlon decides that it's more important to regain her ability to fight, and asks Pisces to use his magic to reinforce the bones in her arms. Though the [Necromancer is reluctant, Yvlon's arms are strengthened, and she gives him the idea of harvesting the Raskghar and Goblin of their bones.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.35 H}}</ref> Backed by adventurers sent from [[Pallass]], all the adventurers enter the dungeon to track down and recover the abducted Gnolls taken by the Raskghar. The Horns initially work with the Halfseekers, then switch over the Griffon Hunt, with whom they form a much better rapport.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.36}}</ref> During the second day of the attacks, Liscor and the adventurers are caught off guard by a Raskghar attack.

Yvlon and the other Silver-ranks re-enter the dungeon, backed by Bone Horrors. While they fail in locating the Raskghar's base,<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.40}}</ref> the Redfangs and the freed Cave Goblins are successful.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.41}}</ref> With Erin's plan of having Pebblesnatch sneak in anchor to the magic door directly to the base, the adventurers, Liscor's Watch and army, and the Antinium ambush the Raskghars.

After the attack, Yvlon participates in the baseball game organized by Erin.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.46}}</ref> She is stunned when the Redfangs bring back the Raskghar's treasure from the dungeon, giving it to the Horns of Hammerad, Halfseekers, and Griffon Hunt.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.49}}</ref>

With news of the Goblin Lord's army being chased by a Human army led by Lord [[Tyrion Veltras]], most of the adventurers plan to leave Liscor. However, Yvlon and the Horns insist on staying with Erin, and faces off against Ylawes. The point is made moot when Zevara cites a law forcing the adventuring to defend the city.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.60}}</ref> When both armies arrive, Yvlon and the other adventurers are on the city walls, and are shocked to see Erin, the Redfangs, and the Cave Goblins battle the Goblin Lord's army.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.61}}</ref><ref>{{VERef|Chapter 5.62}}</ref>

=== Volume 6 ===
After the Halfseekers and Griffon Hunt depart towards northern Izril,<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 6.16}}</ref> the Horns go to the Adventurer's Guild in Celum to take requests. However, they get in a fight with the other Silver-ranked teams, who accuse Ceria and Yvlon of cowardice during the failed raid on Liscor's crypt.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 6.18 H}}</ref>

The Horns are assessed by Magus [[Grimalkin Duveig]] in their fighting ability, with Yvlon passing.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 6.39}}</ref> They take on a request with several other Silver-ranked teams to guard a team of [Builders] making a road around the [[Bloodfields]].

Instead, they decide to go the [[Village of the Dead]] and acquire a Relic to trade for a possible cure.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 8.00}}</ref> Recruiting several adventuring teams for the raid, they are able to venture far into the village, thanks to the undead regeneration effect not working.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 8.17 H}}</ref> However, they run into greater undead and Revenants.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 6.19 H}}</ref> While the other adventurers are forced to retreat, the Horns press on and reach the [[The Putrid One]]'s personal laboratory, where both him and his killer are preserved in stasis. Unfortunately, after Pisces broke the stasis spell, they are attacked by [[Tolveilouka Ve’delina Mer]], the Putrid One's greatest servant, who rips off one of Yvlon's arms and infects her with [Plaguesteel]. They briefly escape with the help of the Dullahan [Paladin], but faced with impending death from Tolveilouka, Pisces activates a [Greater Teleport] scroll, using coordinate for [[Khelt]]. Bouncing off Khelt's wards, the Horns are scattered across Chandrar, with Yvlon landing in [[Nerrhavia's Fallen]].<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 8.22 HE}}</ref> She is arrested and chained by Magistrate [[Ducaz]], who tries to steal her artifacts. Fueled by [Berserker's Rage], she breaks free and rampages, killing several [Guards]. She is then re-arrested and based on (mostly) trumped-up charges, sentenced to become a [Gladiator].<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 8.22 HE}}</ref>

As a [Gladiator] in the Arena of Rust, Yvlon becomes known as the "Silver Killer," catching the eye of [[Yisame Beziin|Queen Yisame Beziin]], the the ruler of Nerrhavia's Fallen and a huge fan of the Horns.

When she is invited to the palace for an event, she is challenged by Prince Esceit Quarein, a relative of Magistrate Ducaz, who is insulted by Yvlon's accusation of theft. She is forced to fight Esceit's retainer Beton, a former gladiator champion. However, Beton is sympathetic towards Yvlon and throws the fight. When Esceit sends his personal [Bodyguards] to kill Yvlon, she is saved through the intervention of one of the adventurers from the Village of the Dead raid,Prince [[Zenol Isphel]] and his bodyguards.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 8.54 H}}</ref> Yisame grants Yvlon clemency, and announces her a guest of the crown.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 8.58 PFH}}</ref> Though Yvlon is initially weirded out by Yisame's fangirl behavior, she is touched when the [Queen] reveals her knowledge of the former Horns' members, as well as the names of Yvlon's teammates in the Silver Swords. She meets with the Great Sage of Nerrhavia's Fallen [[Etrikah]], who appraises the recovered artifacts from the Village of the Dead, and also diagnoses and removes her [Plaguesteel] condition.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 8.59 H}}</ref>

During the fight, Yvlon is deemed a liability by Colth because of her [Berserker's Rage] Skill. While the Horns recover Stalker's corpse, Facestealer is tricked into drowning thanks to the Silver Swords, Vuliel Drae, and [[Infinitypear]] and [[Rasktooth]].<ref>{{VERef|Interlude – Adventurers (Pt. 3)}}</ref>

The Horns and Colth decide to go to the Gnoll Plains to request the help of an [[Shedrkh|expert [Tanner]]] to process Stalker's hide. Yvlon finds out that Ceria was hiding a Relic from everyone else, angering her.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.29}}</ref> She participates in the Trial of a Thousand Blades, but her foot is cut off by the [Lieutenant of Perfection] [[Comois]]. [[Taletevirion]] prevents Tolveilouka from killing her, and tells her that   "''Women of metal forged themselves with hearts harder than the hammers they endured,''" encouragin her to regrow her foot with the same metal on her arms.

The Horns travel to the Gnoll Tribes with Colth, [[The Pride of Kelia]], and [[Niers Astoragon|Niers']] students, with Yvlon still using a peg leg.

The [Silversteel Armsmistress] insists that they proceed, and distracts herself by comforting Ksmvr, who is devastated by the loss of his two trees.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.32}}</ref> Yvlon continues to be angry with Ceria, and ends up being sick after falling in a sewer while taking on a rat extermination request in a Drake town.

She reconciles with Ceria, and gains the [Dreamer] class, along with a new silversteel foot.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.36 HO}}</ref>

After reaching the Gnoll Plains, Yvlon receives lessons on fighting and anger management from Berr the Berserker.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.37 HO}}</ref> The Horns spend time in [The World of You and Me]. a stimulation of Earth where they encounter the [[Deathless]].<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.46 S}}</ref> The [[Silvenia Ettertree|Death of Magic]] discreetly gives them a message telling them about the [[Crossroads of Izril]]. The Horns and Colth decide to explore the Crossroads, with the reluctant help of [[Wer|Wer the Wanderer]].<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.50}}</ref>

Thanks to her knowledge on tanning, Yvlon is the one who meets with Sherkh to discuss the processing of Stalker's hide.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.49}}</ref> After several weeks, the hide is made into several sets of armor, with Yvlon and Pisces receiving underarmor. The Horns and Colth make several short trips into the Crossroads, carefully exploring the region. However, they run into an unknown creature named [[Bograms]], who can wield powerful illusion magic.<ref name=":2">{{VERef|Chapter 9.64 BH}}</ref> They are hounded by Bograms for days, who is herding them towards the ruins of the City of Shields [[Lesegoth]]. One night, while Yvlon is dreaming, she is able to contact [[Shaestrel]] and the [[Frost Faeries]] at The Wandering Inn.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.69 H (Pt. 1)}}</ref> They send [[Vofea]], a Satyr, to the Crossroads after registering her as a member of the Horns.<ref name=":2" /> 

Eventually, the Horns, Vofea and Colth are able to escape Bograms and leave Lesegoth.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.69 H (Pt. 2)}}</ref> They speed towards Izril's south after Vofea reveals that Erin was abducted by Roshal after the Winter Solstice and is currently a prisoner on one of their ships. They sequester aid from one of [[Nombernaught]]'s ships in exchange for the Passphrase of Imlerith, awarded to them after completing the <Heroic Quest>.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.69 H (Pt. 2)}}</ref>

On their way to Erin, they run into three of Roshal's ships. Yvlon kills the entire crew of a ship, while freeing the [Slaves].<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.70 (Pt. 2)}}</ref> She fights with Admiral [[Rosech]] of the Bloodtear Pirates, but he kicks her off the ship, chaining her with [Damned Weight]. Ksmvr tries to save her but is forced to let go, though he gives her his Ring of Waterbreathing.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.70 (Pt. 3)}}</ref> Walking underwater and helped by Silvenias magic, Yvlon heads towards Chandrar.<ref>{{VERef|Volume 9 – Epilogue}}</ref>

===Volume 10===
Yvlon reaches Chandrar by wlaking almost directly into Medain’s capital harbor, Homgrasse about two weeks after the battle at sea. Beyond some malnutrition she is well and receives a warm welcome in Medain. King [[Perric Reoustinal|Perric]] invites her to his palace where she stays but gets bored fast. And Yvlon herself, mostly bores everyone with her bland storytelling at court. Perric's [Majordomo] conveys that Perric is interested in Yvlon joining his harem which Yvlon rejects politely. Afterwards, one of Perrics concubines, the Djinni-slave [[Maef]], helps Yvlon workshop an introduction she can use to talk to people in court.  At night, she does dream workouts that mostly consist of her making up Mrshas to increase the weight for pushups and to pull them in a sled.<ref name=":3" />

|speaker=Yvlon's introduction usually followed by two interlocutor-specific sentences
|source=Chapter 10.05}}Perric tries to keep Yvlon around him and Yvlon is prevented from leaving the city when she aims to do so at first. She leaves nonetheless and makes her way to the border to the [[Claiven Earth]] where she meets Ceria. When she meets the [[Ierwyn|Herald of the Forest]], she treathens to loose her temper if they could not leave the Claiven Earth.<ref name=":3" />

During the few days at the Claiven Earth she helps the half-elves stage a intervention about Ceria's circlet, spars with the Herald and saves a poor half-elve from falling from one of the tree bridges. Yvlon and Ceria then leave for Jecrass but are waylaid by soldiers of Perric while passing Medain. They stop the soldiers but [[Conquerors of Rameid|The Conquerors of Rameid]] strongarm them to go back to Medain's capital where they are again hosted by King Perric. After some appearances and court they are again prevented from leaving. With the help of some of Perric's concubines Yvlon plans an escape route. Unfortunately, Perric tries to stop them and just as Yvlon is about to engage his [[Medain|Golden Ranks]], [[Mars]] appears destroys the city gatehouse. On the way out Ceria gives Yvlon Perrics crown she swiped from him and Yvlon does not give it back but instead takes it into the magical carriage that is their getaway vehicle.<ref>{{VERef|10.11 H}}</ref>

===Silverflesh Limbs===
Yvlon's arms and one of her feet are made of silversteel flesh. They can slowly regrow if damaged, and are immune to most diseases. They possess a notable weakness to extreme heat and cold.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/07/30/interlude-mundanity-and-memorials/ Interlude - Mundanities and Memorials]</ref> If the metal is seperated from her, it becomes liquid at room temperature similar to murcury. If it's are augmented with other metals, it becomes much harder for Yvlon to shape and move it.<ref name=":4">{{VERef|10.49 Y}}</ref>

==Equipment ==

===Current Equipment:===
*Chest Plate, Vambraces, Greaves, Helmet and Gauntlets, enchanted to cushion blows and make the metal stronger.
*[Lightweight] Ring
*Sword of Weight - Enchanted with [Weight]. It can become over thirty pounds.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/07/02/interlude-embria/ Interlude - Embria]</ref>
**In [https://twiki.shelter.moe/Chapter_6.66_H 6.66 H], the sword's enchantment broke and became constantly heavy rather than only during swings. It was later repaired by [[Hedault]].
*Hand mirror spelled for protection and backed with pure silver with further magics that would identify curses, hexes and so on. Will not reflect anything if it is not used by a Byres family member.<ref name="2.32 H" />
*Sparkhelm - Enchanted to flash a blinding light around the wearer.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/07/29/7-37/ Chapter 7.37]</ref>
*Ring of Siphon Barriers<ref>{{VERef|10.50 Y}}</ref>
*Ring of Minor Healing ''(assumed)''<ref name=":4" />
*Ring of Waterbreathing ''(on loan from Ksmvr)''
*[[Stalker]]-hide underarmor<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/10/28/9-64-bh/ Chapter 9.64 BH]</ref>

===Former Equipment:===
*Silver plate armor, sword and shield that were made of the highest-quality steel, an alloy of steel and silver, in fact, a Byres specialty. There wasn’t much silver in them, but they had enough to ward off some monsters and aid in beneficial magics.<ref name="2.32 H">[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/06/04/2-00-h/ Chapter 2.32 H]</ref> = Melted down during the fight against the Fire Elemental.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/08/26/3-07-h/ Chapter 3.07 H]</ref> Some of it fused with her arms.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/08/29/3-08-h/ Chapter 3.08 H]</ref>
* [[Forceshield Buckler]].<ref name="ch. 4.10">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/02/06/4-10/ Chapter 4.10]</ref> = Given to Ksmvr.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/11/24/5-40/ Chapter 5.40]</ref>

==Trivia==
*According to Ryoka, Yvlon looks like something out of a movie.<ref name="1.11 R" /> She is described to be everything Erin had ever dreamed of when she’d occasionally wondered if she could be a knight like one of her chess pieces, or someone like Indiana Jones or even a superhero.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/05/14/2-21/ Chapter 2.21]</ref>
*She resembles Lyon to a certain degree, though Yvlon has about a head of height on her and more muscles.<ref name="2.25" />
*Yvlon's former equipment was made by a Level 32 [Blacksmith]. It was the armament of a [Knight], even though Yvlon was only a [Warrior].<ref name="2.32 H" />
*Just like her siblings, she is unable to use magic, not being even able to figure out how to cast a [Light] spell.<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/11/25/3-32/ Chapter 3.32]</ref>
*When she was still leading the Silver Spears, Yvlon was a Level 22 [Warrior].<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/03/31/4-24/ Chapter 4.24]</ref>
*Yvlon has three siblings<ref name=":5.60">[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/02/16/5-60/ Chapter 5.60]</ref>, one of them being her older brother, Ylawes, and the other being two yet to be revealed sisters.<ref name=":3.32">[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/11/25/3-32/ Chapter 3.32]</ref> In [[chapter 6.64|6.64]] this was retconned to just one sister.
*While somewhat estranged from her family since the first disastrous attack on Liscor's crypt, Yvlon continued to write letters to her older sister [[Ysara Byres|Ysara]].<ref>[[Chapter 8.42]]</ref> 
*Yvlon is the only member of the Horns that Ksmvr does not usually use a title for; "Yvlon", as opposed to "Captain Ceria" and "Comrade Pisces."
*She is the first member of the Horns of Hammerad to reach Level 40 in a class. Furthermore, no Byres has reached level 40 in a hundred and sixty years before her.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/02/15/9-37-ho/ Chapter 9.37 HO]</ref>
*Yvlon used to take out her anger by hitting a training dummy, and destroyed several over the years.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 10.03 Y}}</ref>
*As a child, she lacked self-restraint when speaking. She once asked [[Ulva Terland]] to tell her stories about the [[Second Antinium War]], an event where the [Lady] had lost her twin sister and was thus forever traumatized.<ref name=":3">{{VERef|Chapter 10.05}}</ref>
