Deion Kokkinos

Deion Aristides Kokkinos (Δείον Αριστείδης Κόκκινος), also known as Deion of Delos (Δείον της Δήλου), is a fictional character created by Gilbert Martinez.
==Fictional Character Biography==
Deion came into existence on the Greek island of Delos, on June 30, 1105 BC. His memories of those times are hazy, but he knows he was good friends with Silenus, who was the tutor of Dionysus. From an early age, Deion was devoted to the gods. He especially held Dionysus, Apollo, and Artemis in high reverence.
Deion spent a considerable amount of time in Delos before eventually embracing a nomadic lifestyle. He travelled around much of the Ancient Greek world as a musician, winemaker, and poet. He would stay in one city for 2 to 5 years before travelling elsewhere. As time went on, his stays gradually became longer. He would always take shelter during wars, pandemics, and anything else that could harm him, although his devotion to the gods would always ensure his safety.
Deion was always ready to adapt to changing times. He even took to owning his own house and settling down, using his lifelong skills in music, poetry, and wine making to make a living. As of now, he is among the few living satyrs from the time of ancient Greece.

==Personality==
Deion is an easygoing and amicable character. He may come off as sly and shady, but he is in truth a gentle, jovial spirit full of stories. Being a satyr, he also has a penchant for lewdness, though he knows to control it. His memory may be unreliable at times, but he can be very wise and knowledgeable. He is passionate about wine and music, and he is capable of deep compassion for others. He is never one to shy away from entertaining others with his stories, jokes, and music, though he also enjoys time to himself, whether he's tending to his garden, making wine, or playing his musical instruments.
Despite his natural lack of senescence, Deion is very aware of his age. Viewing ruins of ancient sites reminds him of his longevity, and he has distinct memories of major past events. Even so, he tends to live in the moment and enjoy whatever company he comes across.
==Trivia==
*Deion's color scheme implements varying shades of red because he was created around Valentine's Day.
*Deion's characterization was initially more devilish and sexually active, although this quickly shifted to the present form.
*The name "Deion" is the diminutive form of the name "Dionysius", which is derived from the Greek god Dionysus. "Aristides" means "best/finest form." "Kokkinos" means "red."
