Dion

^{Mentions @Cio and @Randomness}

Dion left his parents and headed back, sensing that they wanted to spend time together. He followed his Peacekeeper escort to the transport. As much as he hated them, he had to admit he had it a lot better than most. The transport was quick and they were eager to get him through customs who checked his sword with a suspicious eye. He just stood there in the expedited line, one reserved for usually the ones that are never allowed out. Dion made his way through, heading to his home after he was finally let in. Dropping off his things he decided he would wander around the Square. Heading down there he just wandered, looking around after picking up his order at the book store, a copy of the Poetic Edda in Norwegian, and a copy of the Codx Regius. He wanted to study his runes more and had taken a lot of time to get them as the Peacekeepers were aware of his powers and didn't exactly approve of Devos training themselves.

The Square was busy and there were a lot of Devos around. There were Peacekeepers about but he paid them no mind. He saw people chatting and there was an unusual sight. Standing on the sidewalk was a man he recognized talking to a woman. He observed them for a while and wandered a bit closer to make out what they were saying. He knew that face, having seen the man before at his father's Office. Unsure of his intentions as he had heard of some of the things the man had done to secure his business; Dion strode a bit closer. With a practiced ease he blended into the crowd around him as he got close. He caught the tail end of the man mentioning a proposal of sorts. Dion shifted his bag on his shoulder, not sure if that was a good thing of a bad thing. The Woman seemed to be unsure of what he wanted, stammering in response. Dion stayed nearby, to listen in.

Dion was tired. Forced to take the midnight flight to meet the ridiculous demands of the Peacekeepers he made his way through Customs, huffing when they demanded three different searches and even attempting to pull him aside to do a strip search in front of everyone and when his mother and father yelled at the man for even attempting it, he finally was allowed to make his way to the car to head back his father's home. "It's a damned Concentration camp, Okāsan. We're searched every other week and we can barely go anywhere much less see Dad for more than a hour."

"I know, Dion." His mother patted his arm. She smiled gently at him. "Leif works hard to make sure we're well off. Don't let them ruin your mood. You ranked up! We're both so proud of you. You keep doing your lessons and focus on finishing your degree. No matter what happens we'll support you." She kissed his head.

Arriving at the building, Leif stood outside, smiling as his son and wife exited the vehicle. "Congratulations, son. I'm so proud of you." He pulled his son in for a hug. He kissed his wife and pulled them inside, the Peacekeepers following. "I'm in a bit of a mess. As you can see I just got off duty." He lets them into their old home. He gets their bags dropped off and ushers them out. "Come on.. We'll get some nice pizza if we hurry, kiddo!" He grinned and herded his family out to the streets.

The streets were busy as usual. Dion had always loved the city. The vibrant feel had always called to him and he loved the mixing of cultures. He especially loved the New York Pizza. Greasy and delicious he grinned with every bite. They had known the owner of this Pizzeria for a long time, Tony Barelli. The large Italian man was known to deliver fresh pizzas to the Compound. Even though none of his family were Devos, Tony and Leif were longtime friends. With their bellies now full they walked back to the apartment. Dion was happy but saddened that he would have to leave his father.

Biography:

Dion was born Late December in 2004 to Leif and Zara Sturgenson. He has an older brother, Bjorn who is five years older than he is. He was unaware of his family's secret as he grew up, believing they were all normal. He himself thought Devo's where pretty cool as what kid doesn't like the idea of super powers? As his father was transferred from the marines to the Peacekeepers, they relocated to Ney York City. He was 9 when the Black Sabbath occurred. Several years after he lost both of his grandparents on his father's side due to riots.

Dion's favorite part of classes was history. Especially his parent's mixed culture. As a biracial Japanese Norwegian American, he often travelled to Japan to see is mother's grandparents in Okinawa. There, the Devo's are in better living conditions than back home. His aunt is one and she is allowed to live with her family as her power is rather benign with being able to regenerate. His mother's family is rather tolerant and sees the Devo's as how humans will progress forward. His Grandfather, Ippo, is the head of the Devo-Humans Relations Committee. The DHRC is against the brutality of the Peacekeepers and only hosts a single Outpost for them in Tokyo. Ippo regularly has Dion's family over at Christmastime, especially when Dion showed signs of being a Devo.

It happened when Dion was 16. He was in Japan at the time and for Christmas he was given a set of wooden runes by his Aunt. He was playing with them and used his first rune, Kenaz which set the runes ablaze. Immediately Peacekeepers had been called but Ippo had such high clout he raised a hellstorm over it all, and arranged for Dion to get papers to allow him to be able to travel out of the States to visit his family, approved by the Japanese government. To this end, relations between Japan and the UN were getting strained as none of the citizens approved of the brutal methods of the Peacekeepers. They were calling it a Hostile Invasion to our nation and it's people. While it meant that he was able to move between nations, he was heavily monitored and hassled in the States. Especially since Leif was a Commander and it eventually cost him his promotion. They said he had a Conflict of Interest and it really tore at the family.

His mother stays with him in the compound, his grandfather very upset over the conditions there. Not once has he ever lacked for things though with their home being ransackedchecked every month, they are under a fair bit of stress, his mother lost her job at the Hospital and they restrict the time his father and brother are able to see them.

Motivations for being sympathetic to the DRM

Having such a hard time living in the state, as the Peacekeepers are making it insanely difficult for his father to get accepted as a citizen in Japan, he wants to see everyone get past this and see that the way it's being handled is completely wrong. He relates to the Peacekeepers as the New Nazis. He despises most of them. He understands that some people want to feel safe but this is not the way to go about it and he fears the growing tension in Japan as the UN is increasing it's sanctions on the country.

Biography: (Your character's history)

Tony is the eldest son of four. His father, Anthony Sr was a marine who fought in Vietnam. He met Leif in school when they were 8 and they've been best friends since. They joined the military together and eventually got into the same Recon Squad, of which Leif led. Tony was right there, his second in command always following him. When he got his first leave, he went back home to NYC to see his family. He met his future husband, Greg, there on Leather Night. They slept together whenever Tony was stateside. They finally started dating when Tony was 28(Greg was 26). He eventually married Greg and they had their first of several sons, Eric. Leif retired from the service in 2013 just before the riots. He retired alongside his friend who was still devastated over the loss of his family a year prior. He took over his father's Pizzeria.

He is currently in the works of getting a permit to open a new location inside the compound, as he wants his godson to be able to have his favorite stuff whenever he wants, instead of dealing with the hassle of his peacekeeper wardens as he puts it.

The Sanctuary

Vilkas caught the subtext Volaire was putting out. He shrugged at it, not too concerned. If the man wanted to talk, he would. "We all have our secrets." He took a seat for himself and began to eat, noticing Stephanie had entered. He gave a short wave, grunted at Voltaire's harsh words and then his eyes were drawn to the young woman's sword. From his perspective, it was much too large for her. She was not built like a warrior, so why wield such a hefty blade. He would have pictured her with a refined weapon, one of grace like a rapier or that takes advantage of her size, like a dagger. He himself wore a saxe knife forged from dark steel. It was heavily enchanted to return to him if he lost it and held an air enchantment that could summon a whirlwind. His own blade, Ascension was in his room, as he didn't generally like wearing it all the time.

Glancing at the weapon, Vilkas sensed fire enchants, which further confused him. "For one so... Open, I would have pictured you with water or air as your element of choice.. Fire is much more... Brash than you seem to be. Would you mind if I take a look at your blade? I'll be gentle with it." The artificer in Vilkas was intrigued by the weapon. It was a strange design and seemed a bit malicious in nature. While the Anubis may know more about enchantments on accessories, Vilkas had years learning the trade of the smith, working with his father and grandfather at the forge, working with metals.

The Sanctuary

The morning sun awoke Vilkas as he slept on the bed. He stumbled over t the large sunning rock as he shifted, stretching out his wings with a yawn. It felt nice, and he was glad he'd still be able to fly after the attack. "Need to get started on that training... I'll ask Master R about it... Wonder if I can get access to the forge... Haven't gotten a chance to build in a while too..." The dragon, once he felt himself sufficiently warmed leapt off the rock into the openness of the sky around him. Flapping great wings he sailed a lazy circle. A strong updraft kept him from going too far down. Touching down on the landing area he shifted and dressed, heading to the mess hall.

He smelled a few new people as he collected a heaping plate. young Dragons burned a lot of energy. He noticed Voltaire and headed over, introducing himself. "Greetings, I'm Vilkas. What brings you to a place like this?" He noticed that once again, he was quite larger than most of the residents here.

The Sanctuary

"Well, it depends. That is what Grandmother studies. She is observing the effects it has on creatures around it. And well... It's very strange. Sometimes the creature becomes an elemental others it kills. It's not as interesting to me as when I started manifesting my magic. I got a bit angry and blew up a tower with a windstorm. That was an... Interesting time." He shivered remembering Vescartes' punishment, empowering the entire self repair enchantment on his own until it was fixed. Well over a month of sitting and meditating to generate the mana needed.

"One of my interests is magical artificing, the creation of magical items. I know of a few weapons created by my Grandfather that Dromon took from him. One was Sunder. A watchmaker that could split the earth itself. There was Illirium, a flute that called upon nature and The Mirror of Solus. I don't really remember what that one does. From in commissioned that one specifically. It's a strange thing. It looked like some sort of mirrored shield. Gramps is a powerful artificer. His studies are held in high regard among our kind. Though it was his grandmother who catalogued the Enchantments we know of. Tunic magic is strong in our family."

Vilkas caught the look that crossed the anybody' eyes. There was a hidden darkness. He made a mental note to ask him about his troubles later. Turning to Steph he nodded. "While our magical sight is nice it's a bit of a burden. Not all dragons have it some have something stronger. Demon for example can read a beings aura and tell of they are hostile or not. Patriarch Jericho can see souls as a black dragon. He is probably the strongest conjurer I have ever seen. While I know some races have hard limits on magic our kind do not. We are all magics as viable. He is currently researching the effects of Necromancy and ways to combat the undead more efficiently."
