rise if you're sleeping, stay awake

Yayauhqui was a quiet kid, and spent most of his time with his little sister Zan. He never had a head for politics; he largely ignored whatever Hechiz was up to with their neighbours because he was about as far removed from any drama as someone could possibly be. He never bought into his country's violent superstitions, though that is likelier due to his little sister's abilities manifesting as young as they did. He is fiercely protective of her, his ire roused only when she's put on the line. Largely he is level-headed and unbothered by gossip or rumors. It's difficult to get under his skin, the one exception being if someone threatens Zan. He has a good sense of humor and doesn't mind being the butt of jokes, though since he's claimed the title of Tlatoani he's lost the majority of his friends. He does have to play act at being superior and solemn now, for the purpose of maintaining his power, though he dislikes the standoffish role. His acting skills have rapidly improved, however; he needs to be able to maintain a placid face for all sorts of reasons, and a Tlatoani that shows off their weakness is a Tlatoani that is quickly overthrown. Since Qui cannot be overthrown, lest his sister is put to fire, he does his best to appear merciless and strong.
The friends that stuck with him are his sister Zan and their oldest friend Grey. Grey is one of the few people that continue to roast him since he's become Tlatoani; there's never been a power difference between them, and there never will be. Qui is always relieved when Grey treats him the same as he always did, what with everyone else walking on eggshells around his throne. In truth, Qui's purpose in recklessly challenging for the throne was only to protect his sister. His people are superstitious and afraid of what they don't understand, and they have never understood Zan. They've been close since they were very little, and Qui has never feared Zan's powers. The three of them (Grey, Qui and Zan) are inseparable friends and likely always will be. Qui sustained some serious injuries in the fight with the previous Tlatoani, and will walk with a limp for the rest of his life. For brief periods, or if Grey is helping him, he can mask this; but if the weather is poor or if winter is rolling in his limp becomes more prevalent. There's an ugly mass of scar tissue on the back of his right knee and the kneecap itself will never fully recover.
