Lion Messi

Lion's real name is Ren Lion Kouen. He was born under the Kouen household, taking the surname of his mother Adelle Kouen. Adelle Kouen was a legendary huntress from a distant Faunus tribe, making Lion half Faunus. His middle name Lion comes from his father's side, named after his grandfather Lion Okami. While his parents loved him dearly, and were powerful hunters in their own right. They had to accept the fact what they did was very dangerous. A human and a Faunus making a child together was unheard of, and because it they were forced to leave. Leaving little Ren under the care of his grandfather on his father's side Lion Okami. Because Adelle feared for her child's safety, she opted that his last name be changed to Messi so he won't be attached to the Faunus tribe Kouen.

While growing up Lion was a very energetic child, very jovial, and always meddling into something but learning very quickly. His grandpa often noted that Lion had an old soul, but a very powerful one. His presence would light up an entire room, and had a natural gift of charisma. Of course with the blood of a hunter flowing in his veins, it didn't take long for Lion to be interested in hunting. He knew little of his parents because his grandfather knew it wasn't wise to speak of them just yet, but it was obvious on how similar he was to them. Plus little old grandpa couldn't stop the kid from chasing his dreams. So being a powerful hunter on his own Lion Okami trained him and trained him hard. Seeing the natural talent that Lion had, only made his grandpa proud.

His grandfather would take him out Grimm hunting by the time he was eleven years old, to increase his experience in battle. Lion would continue to train under his grandfather for years till he was of age to enter Syne Academy. Instead of being scared or nervous, Lion was ecstatic to finally join Syne Academy. He was ready for the adventures, and read to make a name for himself.  

“Intercept them at all costs!” words the rang through Riell’s mind as he was running on top of a building at an average pace. He and his team and had been tracking a couple of dark mages movements for about two weeks. These mages were planning on stealing an ancient gourd in the one of the old towers of Crocus. Crocus was the former capital of Fiore city, but dropped from it’s former glory and now tourist attraction for people wanting learn of Fiore’s history. Because of this many relic and ancient items still reside in Crocus some still capable of being very dangerous in the wrong hands. Which  was exactly what Riell and his team were trying to avoid.  “The dark mages are known as Calik, Misty, and Trogun mostly thieves with ill intentions, but recently their bounty has taken a spike for causing quite some destruction.” More words poured into Riell’s mind due to his partners Maria’s telepathy magic, she was floating high in the air mostly away from physical confrontation as distance was her best weapon.  


“Guess we gotta stop them here then!” Riel sent back in a multi message to Maria and his other partner Drake. Drake was on street level driving a large heavy armored truck, powered by lacrima it hovered right above the ground and moved at a surprisingly fast pace. Calik Misty and Trogun, were running away on street level their bodies covered in large black capes each of them had white masks of different design to tell them apart. Riell would pick up his pace and make the first move forward, jumping from the building and kicking his right leg sending a wave blade of golden fire out towards them, but he aimed ahead to stop their run. The burst of fire startled them, and they had no other choice but to halt their run forward. The one known as Trogun turned his body around, only to meet Riell’s knee coming to his jaw launching him upward. Misty hissed at Riell coming at him with two black jagged edged knives she coated in some form of dark magic.


“Careful Riel she coats her knives in poison magic.”


Calik grabbed the end of his cape and spun it to cover his body, his black cape releasing three black metal chains with sharp claw hooks on the end of each of them. Riell back flipped back a total of three times avoiding Misty’s untrained strikes from her knives, and the chains coming from Calik’s cape. His last flip put him on his feet, where he launched himself in the air at a perfect timing getting him out of distance for Drake’s long range electrical burst attack. Hitting Misty and launching her back, and having her stunned. Riell landed on a stack of boxes behind him, and watched as Calik’s attack fell short when Maria’s using telekinesis to smash a large heavy box on top of him. Riell stood up his face going from it’s usual stern look to a broad smile of an easy successful mission.
