Information
'Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something' is something the Shu'Zin of Zatatar told his people, and its a phrase passed down the generations.

As one of the oldest living beings in the world, many flock to Altan for his wise words, but sometimes, they aren't what they were hoping for.

Lore
When Zatatar was threatened with invasion during the Second Tsushori War, Altan was the Jito who rallied the nation and pushed back the Dyrkons and their Mekalans. It bought enough time for the Druids to cover Zatatar in a facade desert while pulling much of the nation underground. Come the Third Tsushoric War, he was the Meiji of the nation, leading all Zatatarivan forces into Movona, pushing againt the enemy, earning victory after victory. With the captial in his sights, the war only ended with the emergence of Ixia. Peace had finally come to Tsushoro, with all members returning to their nations to rebuild. Since then Altan has remained the Meiji, moving away from his warrior monk nature to that of a diplomat and leader. Having learned the cycle of violence, he is very much against any more possible wars, yet ready to wage should the need arise. Now these days though, he spends more time enjoying the delight of tea, falling asleep during meetings, and ogling the ladies. While he may seem silly, never let that fool you, deep under that demeanor is the old fabled Jito Warlord, who sacked the Gates of Movona.
