Relevant Quote(s):

'Riding white, long-limbed horses with wild manes the colour of rust. Ornately armoured in enamel, the warriors were a match for their mounts – pale-skinned and tall, their faces mostly hidden behind slitted visors, cheek and chin guards. Curved scimitars that appeared to have been carved from ivory were held in gauntleted fists. Long silver hair flowed from beneath the helms.'(HoC, UK Trade, p.327)

'features that were startlingly similar to Trull Sengar’s, apart from the white, almost luminous skin. Eyes of cold silver...'(HoC, UK Trade, p.328)

Enias refers to the Tiste Liosan language as 'The Language of Purity'(HoC, UK Trade, p.328)

Osserc: '‘The Liosan worship themselves, L’oric. I happen to be a convenient figurehead.'(HoC, UK Trade, p.609)

Liosan views on the other Tiste races:

Enias: 'Only among the Liosan is the Tiste blood pure. You have crossed paths with our tainted cousins, then. They are little more than vermin...The first!(Tiste Andii) Oh, indeed. And so tragically imperfect. Bereft of Father Light’s purifying blood. They are a most sordid creation. We tolerate the Edur, for they contain something of the Father, but the Andii – death by our hands is the only mercy they deserve.
'(HoC, UK Trade, p.329)

Liosan Arms and Armour

'Liosan armour, the white enamel gouged and scarred. A visored helm of the same material, the leather underlining webbed over eyes and cheeks by black iron mail. A light, narrow-bladed longsword, its point long and tapering, scabbarded in pale wood.'(HoC, UK Trade, p.602)
