Elkeshai

 is a character in Torment: Tides of Numenera.

Background
This slim castoff looks to be in his late teens. He carries an odd-looking device that resembles a scorched circle, and it's not hard to draw the connection between it and the red mark of a recent injury that travels along his forehead and under his hair. The man seems confused, hesitant, as if he has so many questions that he isn't sure which to ask first.

Elkeshai is a veteran of the Endless Battle, who fought for the Changing God. He controlled a large clay automaton with a remote crown that allowed him to rip through the battlefield - until it was disabled by another war machine, revealing that the automaton was actually a container for gods - souls - whatever you call them. They all rest in his head now, driving poor Elkeshai insane.
