-Among Sorhan's many guises are the Phoenic nobleman and arcanist [[Greymark|Lord Greymark]], the renegade Sulo, the Ayan priest [[Wallen]], and the arcanist [[Faulkwin]].
+Among Sorhan's many guises are the Phoenic nobleman and arcanist [[Greymark|Lord Greymark]], the renegade Sulo, the Ayan priest [[Wallen]], the arcanist [[Faulkwin]], the Casirist swordsman Vickers, and the angel [[Glory|Glory/Nahros]].
+=== Lord Greymark ===
+As Lord Greymark, Sorhan presented himself as a "new money" aristocrat and philanderer. Though peasant-born, he attained wealth mysteriously and suddenly years ago and and purchased his way into the Phoenic nobility, taking lordship over the small province of Kashana. He is a powerful [[arcanist]] who studied under the famed wizard [[Scarcella|Scarcella the Madman]].
+=== Sulo ===
+As Sulo, Sorhan presented himself as a renegade and outlaw, with connections to powerful pirate lords, most notably Jamit Angari and Colette.
+=== Faulkwin and Wallen ===
+As Faulkwin, Sorhan presented himself as a powerful arcanist in the court of the king of Cand. He journeyed to the town of Thome, where he persuaded the Pale Brigade to slay one of his rebellious captains, Kripnak the God-Dreamer.
+Faulkwin, in turn, temporarily took on the guise of "Wallen," an Ayan priest, who slaughtered a large Ayan temple in conjunction with [[Mortzopholus]]. Wallen was driven out by soldiers of Azaphiel.
+=== Vickers ===
+As Vickers, Sorhan served "himself": he appointed one of his servants (who resembles him superficially) to act as "Sorhan," while he served as this decoy's right-hand man. Vickers slaughtered numerous Jihuthi villages, including Tezuma's, and temporarily came into possession of the sword Reshakk.
+=== Others ===

 == Personality ==
-Sorhan is an anomaly among those aligned with Chaotic Evil; he is not impulsive, crass, temperamental, impatient, testy, or short-tempered. Rather, he is composed, patient, deliberate, calculating, mild-tempered, accommodating, nigh-impossible to anger, charming, humorous, charismatic, and affable. However, he is also sadistic, a master manipulator, and capable of astonishing cruelty.

 Pretty much everyone hates Sorhan. He is opposed by the Phoenic crown, the [[Sanctuary]], the Saphora, and the Hadina; the latter's leader, Salysa Aidani, is one of his fiercest opponents. He is opposed by the archdevils [[Asmodeus]], Azaphiel, Hyetta, Valaris, and Hasinsa; the entire Seuvian pantheon; [[Torm]], [[Raha]], and all of [[Celestia]]; [[Azenhar]] and all of Jalidia; and the jinn lords [[Marjaid]] and [[Kazali]].
-Sorhan is hated by his children [[Nico]] and [[Seena]]. He has groomed two of his other children, [[Maz Morin]] and [[Jezra Dassari]], into supporting him.
