SKILLS

Leadership: When Sion speaks, he speaks to everyone; he is a King known for appealing to the needs of the collective whole, inspiring the loyalty of many, and moving not only the masses, but the world beneath his feet. One might say that his good looks and A-rank charisma are a one-two punch, especially when he has cute grannies ladies of all ages vying for prints of his portrait around the continent (and even in enemy territories !!).
Strategy: Since childhood, Sion has fended off assassins not through strength, but with a tactician's wit, and canonically Sion has time and time again brought the Kings of enemy countries to their knees in his campaign to conquer the continent of Menoris with the flawless execution of his, at times, ruthless designs.
Swordsmanship: Sion is an expert with a broadsword, and can function as a tank in a pinch, even if he'd much prefer to dual-wield DPS.

PASSIVES

Physical Strength: Can and will toss bros twice his size around like ragdolls. Sion's strength is roughly twice that of a normal human's.
Immortality/Invulnerability: Canonically, Sion's life is tied to the fate of his world—he cannot die until it meets with its doomed. With this manner of "immortality", Sion ceased to age after the God better known as the "Fallen Dark Hero" awoke inside him, leaving his physical appearance frozen at age 18. In Overjoyed, Sion's agelessness will stem from synthetic biology, and his immortality nerfed to being "stupid hard to kill". A clean headshot is a guy's or (gal's???) best bet to take Sion out.

POWERS

►Magic: In canon, Sion casts spells by manipulating energy into magic arrays, or more specifically, magic arrays which are comprised of equations. How the equations are arranged directly influences the effects of the spell, enabling skilled and seasoned users to create their own spells from scratch. What's more, each country on the continent of Menoris structures their spells differently, causing for unique and varied magic heralding from each corner of the globe. Sion, quite naturally, uses Roland's magic, all of which is nature based.

⤷ In Overjoyed, Sion's ability to use "magic" stems from synthetic biology. During his time spent at a military academy with a reputation for not only fostering, but molding, the next generation of Company leadership, Sion was subject to extensive cell transformation experimentation which resulted in the creation of biological circuits within his body. This network of circuits allows Sion to manipulate programmable matter—also integrated within his person—to yield a variety of desired outputs:

ᴍɪɴᴏʀ | ᴡʜᴀᴛ ɪ sᴇᴇᴋ ɪs ᴛʜᴇ ʟɪɢʜᴛ ғɪᴇʟᴅ >>> ʙᴀᴋᴜsʜᴜ; Solidifies light particles, often used to create both ropes and platforms upon which to stand.
ᴍɪɴᴏʀ | ᴡʜᴀᴛ ɪ sᴇᴇᴋ ɪs ʙʀɪʟʟɪᴀɴᴄᴇ >>> ᴋᴀʀᴀsᴀɢɪ; A simple illumination spell, calls forth a sphere of light.
ᴍɪɴᴏʀ | ᴡʜᴀᴛ ɪ sᴇᴇᴋ ɪs sɪʟᴇɴᴄᴇ >>> ᴀɴᴛᴇ; Renders an entire area soundless.
ᴍɪɴᴏʀ | ᴡʜᴀᴛ ɪ sᴇᴇᴋ ɪs ᴛʜᴇ ғᴀʟʟɪɴɢ ғʟᴀsʜ >>> ᴋᴜᴇɴ; Enables its caster to fall a large distance safely.

ᴍᴀᴊᴏʀ | ᴡʜᴀᴛ ɪ sᴇᴇᴋ ɪs ᴛʜᴜɴᴅᴇʀ >>> ɪᴢᴜᴄʜɪ; Summons a bolt of lightning upon casting.
ᴍᴀᴊᴏʀ | ᴡʜᴀᴛ ɪ sᴇᴇᴋ ɪs ᴡᴀᴛᴇʀ ᴍɪsᴛ >>> ᴍɪsᴜᴍɪ; Calls forth a large torrent of water.
ᴍᴀᴊᴏʀ | ᴡʜᴀᴛ ɪ sᴇᴇᴋ ɪs ǫᴜᴀᴋɪɴɢ ғᴀɴɢs >>> ᴄʜɪɢᴀsʜɪʀᴀ; Raises earthen spikes from the ground.
ᴍᴀᴊᴏʀ | ᴡʜᴀᴛ ɪ sᴇᴇᴋ ɪs ᴛʜᴇ ʙᴜʀɴɪɴɢ ғɪᴇʟᴅ >>> ᴋᴜʀᴇɴᴀɪ; Creates a firestorm which rains down from the sky.
ᴍᴀᴊᴏʀ | ᴡʜᴀᴛ ɪ sᴇᴇᴋ ɪs ɪʀɪᴅᴇsᴄᴇɴᴛ ᴅᴇsᴛʀᴜᴄᴛɪᴏɴ >>> ᴋᴜᴜʀɪ; Emits a single, searing destructive beam of light.
ᴍᴀᴊᴏʀ | sᴡᴏʀᴅ >>> Creates, shapes, and manipulation of swords. Described as "blacker, darker than night", and as blades which reek of "smoke the color of black blood", the swords are summoned with a simple command and function as projectiles which respond to Sion's will. The blades may also be traditionally wielded.

Canonically, all mages are attuned to the energy flow of the world, allowing for heightened perception and enhanced spiritual awareness. For example, Sion is able to sense the "killing intent", enmity, and evil of all beings. This not only helps him to discern the true nature of those who surround him, but also stay any would-be threats, preventing calamities from happening. Notably, Sion is also able to sense the presence of supernatural powers in other living beings and gain detailed understanding of them, including their nature and intensity.

⤷ In Overjoyed, this will take shape as a (passive) biometric scanning system also integrated within Sion's person, capable of identifying those who carry modified or carrying non-standard DNA.

Additionally, due to being so heavily biologically modified, Sion no longer can be called "human". In canon, being the incarnation of a deity is not without its toll on the body. After "awakening" and taking his Godly form unto his human self, Sion suffers from constant, excruciating pain. Likened to a sensation of "something being overturned", and a pain so acute that "his chest hurt so much that he felt like his insides would come rushing out of his mouth", Sion will continue to endure constant pain in Overjoyed, but as a side-effect of experimentation.

...along with blood that no longer runs red, but a sparkly vitriolic shade of gold, as it does in canon.

ᴍᴀᴊᴏʀ | ʜᴜᴍᴀɴ α; No longer human himself, Sion is a Human α, otherwise known as a Human Alpha. As a Human Alpha, the more people who love Sion (whether or not it is genuine adoration, being subject to his rule as King, or simply influenced by him in some way), the more powerful Sion will become. Eventually, he will amass strength enough to either destroy the world or to rewrite it completely.

⤷ Nerfing this entirely! It's an ability unique to the LOLH!verse setting.

ᴍᴀᴊᴏʀ | ᴘᴏᴡᴇʀ ᴀʙsᴏʀᴘᴛɪᴏɴ; By "consuming" an individual on a spiritual level, Sion is able to take their abilities unto himself, gaining strength and power.

⤷In Overjoyed, this ability will manifest as the capacity to absorb the energy from programmable matter used by others into his own body/biological circuits to fuel his "spells" for a short duration of time (30 seconds).

ᴍɪɴᴏʀ | ᴛᴇʟᴇᴘᴏʀᴛᴀᴛɪᴏɴ; By diffusing into light, Sion is able to move at light-speed across short distances.

⤷ In Overjoyed, I'd like for this ability to translate to a refractive shield which allows for its user to remain invisible to conventional sensors (the human eye, security tech) for short bursts of time, creating the illusion of teleportation.
