Description

Val is a Bitch boy(TM)
Orion, however, is a bastard

 


Story:
Orion despises humanity, especially the Sorcerers, for what they've done to their world, and they've made it their life mission to remove nature from the destructive grasp of humans, by stealing back what humanity has taken. They're a "thief" of the Fey, one who finds artifacts before the order can, frees other Fey and beings of magic from the hands of the order, and lives to just be a menace to humanity however they can.

They have an acute sense of the magic around them, and in a meditation, discovered that the souls of two spirits called the Blacksmith and the Mage were not only dying, but in the hands of humans. They had to save the souls. After hunting them down, Orion found them in the form of a fire sword and an ice staff, held by the siblings Adyline and Edwin. The problem is, not only were they carrying the as weapons, they were somehow embedded within the siblings. Taking the weapons was not permanent, as they would dissolve, retreating back into the hands of the siblings, and any harm to the siblings would surely harm the souls as well. Without being able to take the souls back, Orion decided they would just follow the siblings wherever they went, becoming an unremovable thorn on their side to ensure the safety of the souls. Now they're figuring out how and when to take the souls back and return them to nature where they belong. Surely nothing would stop them from this goal. They wouldn't befriend the humans, of course, especially not the fiery older brother who hates Orion with a burning passion. Right?

Design:
Their name was chosen to be something ethereal to lend to their magical nature. I chose Orion specifically as I love the constellation. It's also not their real name, just one they made up when the other three asked for their name. What is their real name? I don't know! Good luck getting it from them, tho.

As you can probably tell, their design was the one I had the most fun with. Val's design hardly changed from his original concept to now, so I decided to let Orion be whatever my mind wanted and what came to be is this: the Anti-Val~ They are the tallest of the group, around 6'2," they are thin and very floaty, and they are a being of Magic. It's everything Val would despise XD

Where's their bow? It's still there, just hidden by magic. Everything in their possession is not what it seems. A rock could become a bow, a feather becomes an arrow, their cloak can camouflage into foliage and even create the illusion that they are a bird. Their pouch is filled with seemingly random nonsense that will then become something else. Quite simply, they're a being of trickery and will use that against you.

Their cloak can not only create illusions, but it innately changes depending on the season. The golden yellow cloak is for fall, in winter it is an icy blue, in spring it is a rosy pink, and in summer it is the green of leaves.

Orion uses they/them pronouns mostly, but will use he/him or she/her to A: fit in better B: confuse people or C: because they can
