Taiyou Hikari

Taiyou the Benevolent

"I won't let you kill my smile..."

"Home" - Beetlejuice

- Only child to the long-standing leader of an infamous and powerful "kingdom"
- Actually a cult that is racist against those without any mutations/alternative traits as well as anyone outside of the cult
- Often, one cannot "willingly" join this cult: you have to be invited or forced into it
- This cult kills those it deems "unworthy"
-  Either by outright murder, using them as bait for traps, feeding them  to their pets, or even being butchered and fed to the lower ranking  viscets within their own cult
- Taiyou was fortunately sheltered from the darkest practices of the cult by his father until he was a young teen
- When he found out, his mother tried to abuse him into obedience
-  It took him years, but he finally escaped just as he was about to be  married off to a female and would have been forced to "create more  subjects"
- He didn't know how to fend for himself in any way, shape, or form
- Survived in the wasteland by sheer luck for almost a month
- Arthur found him near death and pitied him
- Has been following the poor chap ever since
- Dreams of overthrowing his mother and demolishing not only her cult, but the associated cults that they do "business" with
- Has a strong moral code
- Will always go out of his way to help or make someone feel better
- Is also very loud and can't control his volume
- Has daily nightmares, suffers from insomnia
- Only has one antler
- Always claims he lost the other one in some heroic and honorable fight
- In reality he tripped over a hidden barbed wire fence
- It was on the edge of a ravine
- He tumbled down very unceremoniously and it broke at the base
- The worst part was that Arthur was there to see it
