"The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit."
—Proverbs 18:21

Logos is a unique Sarkaz caster. Not only is he a male Banshee, a rare sight within the sub-race, but he was also appointed to be the successor of the Banshee Lord at a young age. His Originium Arts is oral-type, allowing him to cast it by simply speaking or writing with his bone pen.[1][2] This makes him the most powerful Operator among Rhodes Island's Elite Operators. Logos' Arts has been described as beautiful by others and even the enemies admitted this. It's also noted that Logos is the first Banshee Sarkaz to ever been born outside Kazdel. Logos has said he refuses to ever blow his bone-whistle calling it a "lamentable tradition" of the Sarkaz Royal Court.[3] He is also a good partner with fellow Elite Operator Mechanist.[4]

Logos is mentioned in various Operators' files and Records and makes a brief appearance in Rewinding Breeze before appearing as one of the main characters of the Shatter of a Vision story arc of the Main Theme from Episode 11, long before his introduction as an Operator himself alongside Episode 14.

Episode 10

Logos is mentioned as one of the participant of Londinium's infiltration mission alongside other RI members.[5]

Episode 11

Logos's first appearance is when he met with the Damazti Cluster who disguised themselves as Molly. He then appeared during Amiya's confrontation with the Sanguinarch and Colonel Lettou in the command tower where he uses his Arts to neutralize the Sanguinarch's attack on Amiya. He then rebukes the Sanguinarch's attempt on their lives by asserting his status as the Lord of the Banshees and saying the Banshee will not follow Theresis' will. The Sanguinarch lamented that the Banshees has lost their "old ways" of scavenging corpses on the battlefield and blowing their bone-whistle as a requiem for the dead. However, their conversation was interrupted by the Sanguinarch's realization that this was a necessary distraction for the RI and Self-Salvation Corps to get the key intel they needed. With this realization, the Sanguinarch was incensed and tried to slaughter the remaining members but his attempt was foiled by Logos' Arts that he casted before him while imploring the Sarkaz to change from their olden ways. Logos then warns Amiya and the others to strengthen their defenses as the Sanguinarch proceeded to kill Lettou's soldiers to fuel his own Arts. After realizing Amiya was heavily affected by their encounter with the Sanguinarch, Logos tells Ascalon that they need to take away Amiya from the Sanguinarch and if necessary, by force.

Episode 12

After Ines met up with the RI forces, Logos is seen discussing with Horn in regards to the route they will take to Brentwood to build a safe house there. Members of Horn's platoon praised his presence in RI's force and they discussed various trivial stuffs. Afterwards, he told everyone else to follow's Horn's lead to go to Brentwood. Right after Horn and the rest left, he confronted the Damazti Cluster who's yet disguised as another Molly who noted that he has killed at least 31 of them. Logos and the Damazti confronted each other with Logos swearing that he'll decimate the entirety of the Damazti if necessary. The Damazti then keeps transforming themselves from being Sargonian to Kazimierzian all while recounting their experiences there which ends up with the Damazti admitting that they have problems in understanding their own kind. The Damazti notes that during their time Iberia they're disturbed by the Seaborns and they pointed out one thing that differs them from the Seaborns is the fact that they're already one united being as opposed to the Seaborns having to follow the will of We Many. The Damazti then admits that even joining the Military Commission isn't in their interest. They simply just wanted to pass time. While a part of the Damazti faces Amiya, Logos warns them not to try to do anything towards her. Logos then said he's grateful that he's able to understand their motivations earlier but insists that the Damazti has to change. Logos then blows his bone-whistle as a signal for the Damazti's demise.

Rewinding Breeze

During his travels in Kazdel, Logos and his team coincidentally encountered Mudrock and her squad desperately running away from the Witch King's loyalists following the events of Twilight of Wolumonde. He lamented that the evil Arts of the Witch King are still studied even though Leithanien is now under the rule of the Twin Empresses. When told that Mudrock and her squad were former Reunion members, he replied that all he saw was helpless Sarkaz trying to fight for their survival. Without hesitation, Logos dispatched the pursuers and commanded the dark fog to disperse. He then approached Mudrock, introduced himself, and invited her to join Rhodes Island.[6]
