(Perhaps you are thinking of Sara, the minstrel from /Athyra/?) In response to the initial querry, the only appearances of male Issola that I recall is the Issola who became Lord Brudik for Zerika IV during the events of Sethra Lavode. Allistar is *dressed* as an Issola (in disguise) at the beginning of The Phoenix Guard. (This can be found on page 18 of the paperback edition). Unfortunately, the description given of his attire is rather sparse on detail, other than the mention of an issola-shaped ring, and the fact that the garments were, of course, green and white.
