After Proyas had his cousin Nersei Calmemunis whipped for impiety, Xinemus commanded him to take up a practice sword and beat the young man bloody. Proyas later decided that the beating was a lesson about his stubbornness and became slightly more flexible and humble in his behavior. The Darkness That Comes Before

Iryssas is one of Xinemus's three main subordinates. He does not welcome Drusas Achamian to Xinemus's fire, but Xinemus insists that he treat Achamian with respect. He does, though never forgetting that Achamian, as a sorcerer, is damned. As the Holy War begins marching, Iryssas gains a reputation for being slow-witted.
