History:: Rion doesn’t know much about his very early childhood. What he has learned of it though was the from the time he spent in his guardian’s care. Rion was born in a village in the outskirts of the White Kingdom to a serving girl that worked at the noble’s home in the village. Yes, he was born in the White Kingdom. Everything changed for the village when it was attacked by a group of Red Knights, they pillaged and destroyed most of the village. Some of the Knights even raped a few of the ‘more beautiful’ women of the village, his mother being one of them. These knights were later killed by the White Knights that had arrived too late to save most of the village.
His mother died in childbirth and he was given to the local parish to raise. But he never fit in with the other children. Never smiled except for when the village musicians played, even then, it was barely noticeable. He also never played with the other rambunctious children and was known for causing fights. When he was old enough to actually pay attention to what people were saying, he heard that his father was one of the Knights that had ransacked the village.
This cleared up much for him in his mind and he left the village without a second thought. Rion didn’t stop till he found a village in the Red Kingdom. The Red Queen happened to be passing through when he found it, and while everyone knelt in fear at their Queen, the boy simply stared up at her. No fear, only mild curiosity. This intrigued the woman and she took him in without a second thought. When she noticed his affinity for hurting things, she worked with him herself to train him as a knight.
This pleased him to no end, deeming himself more of a Red than his own heritage was. He grew up cold, much like his Queen whom he adored. While he took his looks after his mother, the eerie beauty that could only come from the White Kingdom, he took his personality from his father, cold and ruthless.
The only thing he has ever done towards the memory of his mother was that he has chosen never to be with a woman, ever. Doing so would seem to him as rape. As such, he has gone through many lovers, none of which are alive anymore. When he ever got tired of them, more often than not, he would end up simply killing them.

Personality :: Rion is deathly silent, only speaking when it is absolutely called for. When he does speak, he either sounds very bored (which he usually is) or very negatively. He hardly ever smiles, and only two people have ever seen it and have lived to see the next day, Umbriel and the Queen. The only thing that has yet to actually make him smile is listening to classical music. After the years that have passed since Umbriel’s disappearance, he has become a bit more…open, in a way. It’s also good to know he keeps his word to a fault.
Family :: He has no family. For years he considered the Red Queen close to a mother, but when she died and the new Queen took the throne…he closed up again.
Loyalties :: She has an unshaken loyalty to the White King and Queen.
Psychological Problem :: Rion is a sadomasochist, with more emphasis on the Sadism part of the disorder now that his previous lover, the Red General Umbriel has disappeared.
Weapons :: Serpents Tails, a Jiujiebian, and an Isis Dagger for when his enemies get too close (has rarely happened)
Weapon Information :: The Serpents Tails are his specialty. They are a pair of whips of unknown materials with the strength of the hardest steel but light as a feather. They are about 12 feet long and shimmer a pale green and black. At the ends of the whips are two barbs dipped in a very potent toxin made of his blood. The effects of this poison slow down reaction time down to a crawl and eat away at the victim’s nervous system before finally attacking and dissolving the brain stem. The antidote for this poison is Rion’s own blood being ingested through the mouth of the victim. Of course, the barbs can be removed, leaving a razor sharp tip of the whip to slice at the victim instead, no poison on the tips though.
Isis Dagger: It looks like the picture, only it is white. Made from the bone of a Jabberwocky. It is unbreakable and unable to be dissolved by Rion's own blood.
Jiujiebian: This he uses only when his opponent is too close for his main whips. He hides this on his person at all times. (it's the middle one in the picture he carries.)
Armor :: The armor he wears looks exactly as in the picture.
Armor Information :: Being a long ranged fighter (the span of 12 to be exact) he wears light weight armor. It’s a specialized type of leather from a Jabberwocky, making it both strong and fire resilient. The downside to this is, it is wonderful to protect his body from slashes, but stabbing motions are completely different.
Spells :: Poison Spray, Predators’ Might, Demonic Embrace
Spell Information :: Poison Spray: This can only be done with one of his daggers. Slicing one of his arms, he collects the blood in his hand before casting, then flings the blood into the face of his enemy. This burns the face and if it gets into their eyes, it works just like the poison normally behaves with an open wound from his whips.
Predators’ Might: Heightened senses and reactions.
Demonic Embrace: This spell can only be used for his General, Umbriel. For a few minutes, the poison in his blood increases ten fold so that when Umbriel takes his blood, it makes his demonic side even more powerful. Unfortunately, this is a one time use spell, used only in dire emergencies. The reason is that with his blood that poisonous, it would start turning against his own body and leave him with the slimmest chance of not dying from the spell. This spell can only be used once, the dramatic increase of poison in his blood is deadly to him at that amount. So it is only used in a ‘do or die’ situation.
Special Abilities :: Rion’s blood is poisonous. If any drops onto the ground, it will start dissolving the ground or whatever it hits, this includes any weapons that are not protected against poisons. Resilient against poisons.
Ability Information :: Rion uses his own blood to poison his weapons. If the victim of his attacks manage to drink any of his blood while they are poisoned it works as an antidote. It also works for an antidote of most other poisons as well. With his blood being purely poison, his body had reacted by making a continual antidote in his body, making him resistant to all natural poisons and pretty much all made ones as well.
