One the twin sons of Tekawerahkwa, another Mantle of Winonah, Ioskeha represents all that is good about mankind. Legends say that he fought with his twin brother Tawiscara in his mother’s womb, and it was their discord that killed her in childbirth. The twins were raised by their grandmother, Sky Woman, but Ioheska and his grandmother never got along, as she believed his brothers lies about him. Ioskeha and his brother created the Iroquois people, and added to all the things inhabiting the World. Ioheska created all the things of light and above the World, imbuing mankind with all of its most noble qualities.
Ioheska strives to be the best representation that he can be to the people. He was gifted with the knowledge of bows, maize, and growing and did his best to pass this knowledge on to the people so that they could care for themselves and grow strong. Ioheska is a mighty creator, but one of the things he regrets is that he never got to know his mother before she died. Even though he doesn’t go out of his way to interact with them, this disconnect with his mother is something of a sore spot he has built up between himself and the sons of Winonah. This enmity is somewhat fueled by Tawiscara, who tries to convince Ioheska that the four brothers somehow stole their mother from them. If they are fighting his brother, he typically intervenes to drag his brother off to deal with the dark twin himself. Only he has the right to punish Tawiscara.
Ioskeha’s Scions are the kind of people who are just nice, and will typically do the right thing no matter the consequences. They have an incessant need to make things and provide service to others. Ioskeha cares deeply for his Scions, and will go out of his way to help them and to teach them lessons. He does not coddle them, however; if he feels they need a hard lesson, he makes sure they get it. He encourages his Scions to do simple services like volunteering in soup kitchens and building houses for the poor, as well as monster hunting and fighting off the Titans. A great many of them are peacefully protesting corporations and governments harming the land and the people.
