Lyserg Diethel

Race: Human / Shaman

A British Shaman and a traditional "dowser", whose parents were killed by Hao. Lyserg has dramatic interactions with all of the main characters at some point, and though he travels with them for a long time, he fights against Yoh's team more than once during the series.

Lyserg is an intelectualy genius but he is blinded by the prospet of revenge for his family's murder. He has a generally kind heart, although he becomes a bit of an anti-hero.
