NEW FROZEN LEO!!! I've had this sketch for months, and I finally thought it was time to finish it. I'm stuck between 2 roles for this character, so for now I’m not going to place him anywhere, and think for a bit before I make my decision.
Here’s some default info about him:
Intro
Rupion is a Frozen Leo who resides in a small village in South Nova. His role in the village is a bodyguard. He is very strong, and has exceptional skills to protect those he’s assigned to. Because of his powerful, scorpion like tail and flawless record, Rupion’s schedule tends to be very busy since many Leos request him. He is mainly used to oversee trades with other merchants so nothing goes awry, or to escort and protect them from Demon Beasts while they travel to a different area in South Nova.
Because of his job, he’s had the opportunity to know most (if not all) the Frozen Leos in his village. Many would describe him as warm and welcoming, despite his deadly tail looming over him. Many in the village would often greet and welcome him if he passes by- some even offering him several treats like meat skewers, or dried, sweet fruit. (A prized treat in the small village.) He is well respected by his peers, which makes Rupion very dedicated to his job to ensure any Leo in his village will be well protected in his care.
Many of the younger Leos (Nicknamed "Ice Cubes") love to mess with him. They often throw snowballs to try to catch him off guard. Rupion loves to play along and allows himself to get hit most of the time. In their eyes, he’s seen as a giant goofball. They love to play with him when he’s free, and although they may seem rough at times, the younger generation greatly admire him. Many also love to swing off his tail, or his large horns on his head.
Battle Style
Rupion heavily relies on his scorpion like tail for battle. He prefers to fight at a distance to make sure to keep his target far away from him as possible. He uses his tail to constantly swing and hit is opponent until they eventually tire out. He's also known to toy with them- jabbing his poisonous tail close to their feet in quick intervals to make it seem like they're dancing.
Because his tail is made of ice, he's able to easily add more to extend the length of it when needed, as well as adding another tail to fight multiple enemies. This, however, takes a lot of concentration and stamina, so Rupion won't be able to fight long and can become extremely fatigued if he's unable to defeat them in a certain amount of time.
Rupion stores a dangerous type of poison in his tail, but never uses it unless his life is in danger. It causes frostbite on the effected area, and if struck more than 2 times with a heavy dose, it will be able to kill you.
Once I pick his role, I'll make a bio page for him. But for now, I hope you enjoy a little snippet of him! ^o^
