PERSONALITY,Rion is a man who takes things seriously. He'll allow joking, but more often then not he won't get the joke. Despite this, he is very thoughtful and looks after his fellows very well, even so far as to giving them compliments for a good day's work. He also fears little, and he will be the first to go into battle with sword drawn, or the first to explore a dark cave. He is generally polite, and very well-mannered for a guardsman. Something he picked up from his parents back home. His temper is virtually nonexistent, and Rion can keep a cool-head in the most trying of circumstances, something that has saved him and his fellow knights many a time. He can be strict at times, though, making sure that everyone does their jobs, follows rules and regulations, and keeps everything running smoothly.
He doesn't care much for brigainds, robbers, theives, or even anyone who is considered 'criminal. He can't understand why groups of people would just ignore every rule given and do whatever the hell they want to. No matter how fun it is, people get hurt doing what they do, and Rion can't forgive that. He doesn't treat every criminal quite the same, but he holds all of them in equal proportions of contempt. His rigid sense of honor will not let him condone their actions, and he's the first to help after a house or carrivan is robed or destroyed. The commander will even go so far as to pay for repairs out of his own pocket. And, despite the jeering of some of the other Guards, Rion has mercy. He won't kill criminals unless they warrant it, and he'll accept any surrender asked. Though he, himself, will never surrender. He holds too much stake then to give up, and so he'll likely die in battle.
APPEARANCE,
Rion stands somewhere near 5' 10', and he is covered in scars, calluses, and lean, hard muscle. His skin is colored in a very light tan that refuses to darken, no matter how long he's in the sun, but it won't sunburn either. His head is capped by long, light brown hair that hangs down his neck, though the bangs are cut short. Most of it is held back by a blue headband, though a few locks still frame his face. His eyes are blue, though sometimes it can be hard to tell if they're light blue, blue-gray, or some other shade. Despite this, they still hold some measure of sincerity that proves that Rion won't lie.
His choice of outfit is something that he rather stumbled upon. First he has a pair of shorts. They're of a dark tan color with green at the cuffs. Next is his tunic. Stitched of a rough white cloth, it has a broad collar and brown at the hems. it also has a red and brown pattern around the shoulder-chest area, but nowhere else. Next is his belt that hugs the tunic to his waist. It's made of a dark-brown leather and consists of a straight band that has two semi-circular pieces coming down from the front and the back. Tied to the curve of the pieces are seven white, wooden bars, though their purpose seems strictly decorative. Over that he has his tabard, a dark gray piece of cloth that hangs over his shoulders and drapes down to his waist. Both sides have an odd white, curving pattern to it with some darker grey in the center. Over his feet Rion has a pair of sandals that have a strip over the front of the foot, and one strip on either side of his ankle. Another few strips connect to a shin-guard that goes up to his knees and goes about behind his leg in more straps. Finally, he has bandages wrapped around most of his for-arm with arm-bands over his wrist.
WEAPONS,
- Collosia: The sword Rion has on him at all times. The hilt is long enough for both hands, and swells in the middle and tapers on top and bottom. The pommel is another swelling at the bottom, and the cross-guard curves from the top taper. The guard is an inch or two thick, and is lightly curved towards the tip of the blade with a triangle bit in the middle that overlaps the blade. As for the blade itself, it is some three feet in length and is double edged. It is mostly black with silvering at the edges, and has two shallow cuts near the tip.
- Agra: The bow Rion uses is a formidable weapon indeed. Made of a dark-brown wood, the weapon is almost as tall as he is and
fairly thick with white bands above and below the handle. Overall it has an odd shape, but Rion is extremely proficient in its use. His quiver carries thirty arrows.
ITEMS,
Keys, rope, his pouch with arrow repair kit and sword care kit, and a medallion proclaiming him as a guardsman.
ABILITIES,
- Radiance: A solar based ability that uses Collsia as medium, Radiance is a highly offensive attack. Rion can fire a beam from his blade at an opponent, causing fire damage to the relative distance from the sun he is. It works better at noon or in the open, less so when inside, underground, or at night. It is similar to a spear stabbing the opponent/
- Moondrop:Radiance only works in the day, but that doesn't leave Rion defenseless at night either. During Nighttime, the guard can unleash a dome of moonlight that deals ice damage to opponents. Curently,the effect spreads to fifteen feet. Three post cooldown

HISTORY, Rion had a standard beginning to his history. Simple, yet good life with his family. They lived on the outskirts of Hyrule, sure, but who cared? Unlike his brother, however, Rion wasn't interested in playing outside unless coerced. Instead he read, or talked anyone with them to letting out tales of adventure and courage. He soaked the stories up like a starving child, and his imagination was awash with the world that the tales pictured in his mind. It went on like this for a pleasant while, but reality was never like the stories. The world was much worse then fantasized...
There was a raid on the family home. The house burned, the stores looted, and any living thing within proximity was slaughtered without mercy. The fact that he survived was a literal miracle, for otherwise he would have joined the rest of his family. Tired of being told to put his book down, He had stolen outside with his latest acquisition and a lamp. When things suddenly got brighter, he realized something was wrong. In shock Rion dropped both book and lamp, smashing the glass and snuffing the candle. It was the only thing that saved him, as the bandits soon left the house and left it as the family pyre. He couldn't move, and almost had to force himself to breathe. But honestly, he didn't think he wanted to anyway. As he slowly tried to comb through the ash, all he could find were the charred bones of those he had loved. Was there any reason to live anymore?
A patrol found him that way the next morning, kneeling in the ashes with his mother's blackened skull cradled in his lap. They took him in custody and escorted him to the nearest orphanage, where he was fed and given a bed. But that didn't matter. Rion didn't socialize with anyone else, and it was a shock when he was adopted by a couple at all. But he was, the pair liking the quiet child, and they took him to their own home.
Slowly he began regaining semblance of life, and his new family was quite patient about the whole thing. They would often take him sightseeing, and that would tend to bring him more out of his shell and more into the world then not. But life struck a blow again, and it was during one of these trips that a band of thieves attacked them on the road, and threatened to kill every last one of them if the valuables weren't immediately handed over.
During this process, another patrol ran across the 'transaction' and confronted the men. Overconfident, the bandits challenged the guards and lost....inspiring Rion. There were too many criminals in the world...but maybe he could help stop them.
He wasn't accepted, not at first, but slowly and surely he was taken into a guard squad in his villiage, and there he worked on getting better and what he did. Training in sword, bow, and especially magic.
