Hyperion Vaillant

(Work In Progress)

Hyperion Vaillant is a Human Noble, Boxer, and Builder who currently resides in Luxios, the capital of Solisios. He is a very secretive character and has only a certain number of people who he freely communicates with. He has many skills and passions, such as his love for all things redstone related, his absurd love for tea, and his everlasting desire to get better and better at fighting. Currently, Hyperion has been working in his lab, coming up with new ideas for redstone machines and researching to learn more about the science behind the world of Rathnir. As of now, he has been hard at work trying to find out ways to improve the quality of living for others, as he was inspired by some of his close friends to show empathy to those who need it.

Appearance
Hyperion is very distinct for his purple eyes, a trait given to him from his family members. He has short, blondish hair that reaches towards his eyebrows, and can usually be seen with a white leather coat on. Under his coat, he has an Old-Fashioned buttoned vest and a tie. He wears brown leather goggles on his head, and brown boots that reach towards his knees. He also wears black gloves and shoulder pads, and sometimes a bag can be seen around his waist.

Personality
Hyperion's personality is not so easily defined. For one, he can show empathy and care for those in need. He can also show hatred and resentment to those who harm him. Most of his friends, however, describe his personality as an "Excited Puppy" because of how cheerful and jolly he can be at most times. Some people describe Hyperion as a nice person to be around because of how chatty he is, and enjoy his company. He does have some people who dislike him, however, and they refer to him as a monster.

Early Life
Hyperion was born in the Huitca Federation, from Eztli Tizoc and an unknown mother, at an unknown location somewhere in the south-east of the nation. He lived off the land with his father, until he was deemed old enough apply for citizenship of the Huitca Federation. After gaining citizenship, he was hired as a Redstone engineer at Fort-Aleza, a military installation to the west of Huitca. There, he developed many Redstone machines such as the H-Artillery, a machine capable of firing projectiles at varying range and power, Project-R, a top secret project involving Redstone engineering and rocket science, and Gamma-Omni, a project that not many know about. Later, however, Project-R was discontinued due to the cost of sustaining the project. He eventually grew tiresome of coming to the same place over and over doing the same things, and quit the job. After this failure, he visited the town of Sanctuary in the Empire of Uldarash, where he met a soon-to-be-friend named Rettery.

Career in Sanctuary
Every now and then, Hyperion would visit Rettery in his bar, the Lions tavern. Although Hyperion objected to drinking, he enjoyed watching all the men and women who would visit get drunk, and on occasion drank tea and water for fun. One day, the Lions Tavern opened up a fighting club, where people would punch each other to the death for points, known as "Sumo Duels", which could be redeemed for various items in the Tavern. Hyperion, being eager for action, signed up for this program. On the very next day, he won every single match he participated in. As time passed, he raised up and up in the rankings and eventually became the champion of the fighting club. This is when he would discover a true passion for fist fighting, and vowed to be the best he can at it.

Moving into and living in Solisios
One day, Hyperion met Emelyn H. and Prajuri Cahya, two of which he considers outstanding friends, who accepted him into the Nation of Solisios. Realizing their act of kindness, he opted to resume his career of being an Engineer and make Redstone machines, this time, for Solisios. He began this with the debut of the H-Artillery V2, to which not only they both accepted, but also Peter, the head of the military, accepted. He then began to construct more and more machines in his lab under Luxios. Eventually, he developed H.A.L.I, a weapon capable of firing arrows at almost the speed of light itself. After this, however, he ran out of ideas, and began debating whether to quit his role. Hyperion, yet again bored of doing the same thing over and over again, decided to make some friends. He met people such as ItsSmells_fishy, LordScramble, Luigidoom, and RogueHaven, who he quickly got along with and still talks to from time to time.

Banishment of Hyperion from Huitca
Hyperion, who at the time had a second residency in Aequalis, had gotten very angry with the locals. They had made annoying jokes, called him horrible names, broke down his doors, and even more forms of Harrasment. Hyperion had enough. He warned them all to stop, and when they didn't, drawed out his sword, and slashed. He had murdered 3 people in cold blood. He looked to his blade and looked at the red, almost clear liquid. His shirt and pants were stained from the massacre he had just commited, and yet, he felt nothing. When he really thought about it, he felt, amusement... These thoughts however, were tucked deep away in his head, and Hyperion, still startled by what he had just done, was hoping they would never pop up again.

After this encounter, things returned to normal. Although he got into an argument and took a scolding, everything was fine. He met someone who would later become his friend and roommate, Clover. Him and Clover naturally interacted well. They would mine together for hours at a time, telling each-other jokes to pass the time, and had even gotten rich enough to almost get Hyperion a full set of Enchanted Netherite Armour.

He had gotten even better news however, his father was going to be married to his fiance, Elizabeth An Chaureste. He decided to attend this wedding, along with Clover, who he considered to be his best friend at the time. They both sat next to each other, and Hyperion was called up to the podium as Best man. In shock, Hyperion came up to the podium, standing infront of everyone attending the wedding, and his soon to be mother. With the little words he could muster, he started his speech, and ended it with an applause from the crowd.

After the wedding ended, Hyperion and Clover travelled home, and the day was over. Soon, however, the close friendship would be broken. Another one of those "annoying wankers", as Hyperion called it, was messing with him, using a fishing rod to bring him up to their balcony and back down, over and over. Hyperion felt a pulse near his hand, and looked to see his blade, "The Blade of the Heavens", in his hand. Hyperion knew what his instict wanted to him to do, SLAUGHTER. When the citizen pulled him up again, Hyperion stuck his sword into the citizens neck, got up the balcony, and finished the job.

Clover, watching this all unfold, had enough. He climbed up the citizens house, and began to fight Hyperion. Hyperion ran, not wanting to fight his best friend, and screamed for him to stop, but Clover was determined to murder him. He chased him out of the city into the ocean, and with his Depth Strider 3 boots, caught up with Hyperion. They began to duel in the tall kelp fields of the lukewarm ocean, and Hyperion, his hand being forced, began to fight back agaisnt Clover. This however was futile, as Clover had stronger gear and better experience in fighting, and the battle was soon over, Hyperion's dead body floating in the ocean, never to be seen again. Or so they thought.

I'm..Alive?
Those were the words Hyperion uttered, as his eyes slowly began to open, and he saw the blue summer sky, sun shining down on him. He stood up to see he was on a Tropical Island, the sea surrounding him on all sides. He looked down, and saw the cuts from Clover's sword on his chest. He reached for his bag, and found out it had been slashed, which he supposed was either during the battle or while he was unconcious drifting about in the endless sea. He felt a slight pain in his torso as he walked around, and looked down to find a scar about the size of a small blade across his chest. His shirt cut and stained around where the slash was. He began to cut down trees, crafted basic tools, made a boat, and sailed to wherever he could go. He eventually landed near an unnamed town, and found a person who he would later know as Shrubbery. "Do you know where Huitca is?" Hyperion asked in a questionable tone. "Yeah! Should be straight that way!" Shrubbery responded. Hyperion thanked the kind stranger, and sailed out west to find his home once more. After days of sailing, he found a port, which he docked his ship in, and walked around the city connected to it. There, he met someone he though he would never meet, his father.

After settling down in his fathers hut, he told him the entire story, and Eztli uttered words Hyperion wish were never said:

"Son, I'm sorry, but you've been banished. You can't be here. Ever."

Hyperion was devastated, having lost his one true home. But he stayed with his father for a few days before he moved out of the nation forever. To this day, the citizens of Aequalis still hold grudges agaisnt him for his cruel and ruthless actions of murder, and he also holds resentment towards them for being naive by thinking he was not provoked.

Encounter with Osseus and Joining it
Hyperion heard of a place where people were given gear to fight to the death for fun, known as The Arena. This is where he met an upcoming Mercenary and future bandit named PirateFrogg. They fought agaisnt each other, and to the audiences surprise, there was no winner. They began slashing at each others armour, but none of them took a step back. Eventually, the match was called to an end, and PirateFrogg approached Hyperion with an offer. An offer to join a soon to be bandit group known as "Osseus". Hyperion, still eager for some action, took his offer, and was brought to a castle where he met the other members. One of the notable members he met was Shohen, who Hyperion had multiple encounters with before. The members welcomed him in with open arms, and Hyperion felt just at home when he was around them.

The 2nd Relic War: Battle of Borktress
A few months later, the Shah of Solisios named Beast sent a call out for some of the greatest soldiers in the nation to rally at Luxios. The reason for this was to assasinate a Huitcan Leader named Boram. Hyperion was initially going to come, but could not because of other matters he had to deal with. After this assasination, news had come that Huitca declared war agaisnt Solisios for the assasination, and Hyperion began gearing up to protect his new home, and attack his old one. After this, news had come out talking about Solisios going on the offensive, and yet again Beast sent out a call for the military to rally at Luxios for the Battle of Borktress. Around 15 soldiers arrived, and they set out to land on the beaches of Huitca, and begin the conquest of the Borktress. This was successful, with the Solisean military gaining control of the fort in just a few hours. Hyperion awaits the date of the next battle, as he hasn't had that much fun in years.

Sacrifice to Tenebris and his Influence
Following the victory at the Battle of Borktress, Hyperion began a personal sacrifice to Tenebris, God of the void and darkness, to thank the god for the victory. In this sacrifice, Hyperion threw multiple items such as Gold, Iron, Diamonds, Ancient Debris, and his most prized possession, a picture of his mother. The sacrifice took a dark turn once Hyperion threw the items into the portal. The frames began to pulsate, and the void hole in the middle began to enlarge. The ground around him began to shake as rain and thunder boomed over the continent. Lighting struck the ground of the sacrifice city, Tenebras, and a river nearby began to flood. All of a sudden, 8 black tentacles like an octopus surged out of the portal, and wrapped around both of Hyperion's legs, trying to pull him down into the void, to forever be forgotten like the poor souls trapped there. Hyperion, not being able to fight off whatever was holding on to him, lost his grip over the chiseled sandstone walls, and fell even more through the portal, desperately clinging on to the frame of the portal. He screamed, hoping someone would come to his call, but nobody showed up. At that time, nearly his entire body was in the void, with only his head, shoulders, and forearms above the portal. He pulled away from the monster and tried to kick away the tentacles grabbing him, but it seemed as if it was unfazed. He remembered something, a blade he had in his pocket, so he moved his left arm down to get it, leaving only his right arm to stop him from falling into the depths of the world. After a bit of struggle, Hyperion managed to get the dagger, and cut one of the monsters arms, freeing his left leg and making the monster screech in pain. He began trying to cut the arms on his right leg, but before he could, an arm ripped through his chest, and grabbed something from his heart. It looked like a crystal, illuminating red and shining like a star. As if almost instant, he felt all his positive memories and emotions be freed of him, and everything inside was replaced with 6 emotions: Fear, Hate, Pain, Sorrow, Resentment, and Jealousy. He slashed at the beast one last time, releasing his right leg, and forcing the monster to retreat back to the dark and gloomy depths it came from. Hyperion climbed out of the portal, and lay down in pain. He fell unconscious, and woke up to a horrifying sight. His eyes turned into a dark, gloomy red where the happy and joyful purple used to be. He tried to reason with himself in his head, maybe it was a dream, but then he noticed something peculiar. He couldn't feel. He felt scared and confused, and he knew he felt that, but his body wasn't showing it. It was as if when his soul was ripped apart, he lost his ability to have emotions.
