"Sometimes I remember it one way, sometimes another... If I'm going to have a past, I prefer it to be multiple choice!" --The Joker, A Killing Joke
Name: Legion
Nicknames/Alias: They say he is a man of many names, although he is most often referred to as "Legion." He is also going by the names of Daigoro and Felicien "Felix" Leblanc (first name means lucky, second means white).
Place of Origin: ? ? ?
Age: ? ? ?
Height/build: Aside from the sportatic claims that he is a muscular giant standing over seven feet tall, the general consensus remains that he stands between five foot seven and five foot ten with a slender or overweight build.
DoB: ? ? ?
Race: Rumours are that he is a mixture of hume or human, elvaan, and probably some other things too. Some think it might be an esper, while others suggest some sort of demon archfiend. A few cultists think he's a defunct god now living amungst men, while others would clarify taht he's only half divine. Few claim he is a l'cie, and fewer say fal'cie. Some day he's really a space alien, while a few others have been heard to say that he must be some sort of artificially intellegent pleasure bot from the future.
Weapon: Has been witnessed in the possession of a sword, but has never been seen to actually wield it.
Level: ? ? ?
Strength: ? ? ?
Physical: ? ? ?
Magical: ? ? ?
Agility: ? ? ?
Special Skill(s): Rumored to have the power of persuasion, there are those think he uses some form of telepathy. Others think he is a bard who uses his songs to sway the minds of others. The more cynical believe that he uses blackmail. There is an also another odd rumor out there that he is a high-level alchemist in posession of the Philosopher's Stone.
Magic: Has been seen to use elemental magic. Ice is the one most frequent. Might be a Black Mage, although Red Mage or Elementalist are also a possibility. Then again, there are those who believe that he uses magic by use of technological means, such as materia, magitek, dresspheres, or mana drives.
Summon: ? ? ? (Has been seen in the presence of a bird creature that oddly resembles a phoenix. It could be a summon, or could be a pet, or it could be a toy robot.)
Appearance: Man appearing in his late teens to early twenties, although one report claims him to be middle aged. Witnesses claim him to be between five point seven to five point ten feet tall. While his hair color has been witnessed to be blond, brown or black; "white-ish" tends to be the most commonly accepted. Most consistently, he is remembered as being of slender build, but the manner of dress ranges from being similar to the clothing the styles of those seen in Galbadia or Midgar or Eden. Although, there is that one sighting that claims he wore armor that seemed to have a slight glow to it. There are those who say his eyes are as cold as ice, while some claim that they burn red. Others still swear that they glow like mako.
Personality: Rumored to be a likened to a wolf in sheep's clothing, whose poisonous bite is far more vicious than his bark. Some say he’s a vindictive tricker spirit from an ancient forest, while some think he is a cunning con artist and gambler from Nautilus...or Corel.
History: Little is known about the history of Legion, only that he is a name whispered in the underground. Some girls at the HoneyBee Inn claim that he is an international male gigolo--with a very selective clientele of influential old men. Some authorities suspect he might be the leader of a syndicate, or have ties to the mob, while others claim he is just a hitman. There are those who say that he is really a l’cie, while some would correct this assumption by adding that the l’cie is actually his bodyguard and/or partner--thought to be called Yojimbo. A patrolman in Guardian Core had overheard word that Legion was really part of the cocoon underground, but then his partner would say that he’d heard the man to be a former Sanctum soldier. Some investigators in the WRO would argue that they heard he was a former Shinra Soldier or a Turk (both to which Tseng either denies or claims "no comment"). But then a man in a bar once heard that he was really a SeeD who got kicked out the service. However, a pair of Bangaa head hunters were certain that he was from somewhere in Ivalice, for they had heard he had a peculiar way with his words. The more superstitious think he might be some sort of demon that could convince men to do things they normally would not. Then again, there is that other rumor going around that he used to be a scientist in Vector, which might explain a few things, if his method of persuasion had anything to do with slave crowns. Still, there are those who are quite sure that all these rumors are nothing but exaggerated nonsense--an urban bogeyman invented by a well-traveled con-artist who has gotten his fingers into far too many pies.
Said bogeyman is amused about how rumors tend to warp so horribly from the truth.
And while his true nature remains a mistery, what can be determined is this:
Legion is an anomaly born of the Merge, for he is a man with not a singular past--but many.
Mist and Rain Game Notes:
→ He is probably the mergence of several men, across the many Final Fantasy worlds, who had a similar life energy or frequency. He exists now as a new being who contains the memories of those men--even if those memories are now jumbled together.
→ Alignment would be something akin to Chaotic Neutral. Sometimes he may work with heroes, sometimes with villains. Ultimately, he is self serving.
→ At the moment, he cannot operate independently from my other characters. As a Boss, he may be used for plot purposes. As an NPC, he will usually appear within Yojimbo/Shion’s threads under the alias of Daigoro.
→ If following the FF12 paradigm roles while in Yojimbo/Shion’s Party, he may function as a medic or saboteur. However, this may change if he is partied with another character.
→ It is unknown exactly how powerful he is, or if he has any powers to speak of, at all. Normally, he would not be one to engage in direct combat with other characters. Instead, he may employ the philosophy of “keep you friends close, but your enemies closer.” Due to this evasive ways, he might not have any special power. This might be a case of the pen being mightier than the sword.
→ Very intelligent (possibly a mastermind personality type). Seems to have some knowledge in matters of science and technology. This indicates that one of his past selves may have been a scientist of some sort. Due to his medical knowledge, a physician is possible.
→ May hold Syndicate connections.
