Huo Yan Li

is one of the three Company Commanders of the 1st Special Fire Brigade.

Appearance
Foien is a young man with short, light-coloured hair that falls just over the top half of his face and eyes that naturally appear closed. He also has a chin strip and wears a dark-coloured hat. Foien's outfit consists of a dark-coloured cassock, topped by a light overcoat-like garment with a high collar and a skirt-like garment, dark shoes and a pendant with a cross-like symbol as a charm — an outfit, which is shared amongst the Company Commanders of the 1st Special Fire Brigade. After his encounter with Rekka's superiors, Foien had one of his arms cut-off by a fire arrow.

Personality
In contrast to his long-time friends and team-mates Karim and Rekka, Foien is a rather laid-back and responsible individual, who doesn't like to get worked-up and waste time with meaningless fighting. He abides to the etiquette of the 1st Special Fire Brigade strongly, going as far as to point out formalities, such as a dress code.

VS. 1st Special Fire Brigade arc
After the scuffle between the 5th and 8th Special Fire Brigades, Foien and his fellow team-mates, Karim and Rekka, are approached by Leonardo Burns and together they discuss the event. Later, when trainees from the 2nd, 5th and 8th Brigades arrive at the 1st Special Fire Fighting Cathedral and their training regiment begins, Foien is pitted against Tōru, both of which refuse to fight. After training, when a Flame Human was spotted in the area under the jurisdiction of the 1st Special Fire Brigade, Foien takes lead of one the squads.
