Diamond Hallion

Diamond Hallion was a skilled Flydevin Warrior and the husband of Fractus Zhantom. As a result, he was also the father of Duster Zhantom and Nimbus Zhantom. He unfortunately died before the birth of the latter, although he is mentioned multiple times during Kicking Dust.
==Appearance==
At the time of his death, Diamond Hallion was a thin, short, pale-skinned Flydevin man. As a result of his fragility and his tendency to fight in wars, he has received many scars, some of which are prominently visible on his face. He had poofy grey hair with a vaguely teal tint, with a curly "poof" in the middle. He usually tied it with a spiked ring-like object, forming a large bun on the back of his head.
Diamond Hallion is a Powder Winds adept, but as a result of being a Flydevin Warrior, wears a different outfit most of the time, consisting of pointy armor with white highlights and wind patterns on it. The shoulders are spiked and reach a fair distance back, almost forming small "wings" - seeing as those are a status symbol amongst Flydevins - and he also has prominent "gauntlets", as well as a chestplate and an armor plate around his pelvis.
==Personality==
Diamond Hallion was rather quiet, but those who knew him generally thought he was quite nice. It seems he was very devoted to the cause of defending his homeland from raiders and invaders. He believed in redemption, and tried hard to make Fractus a better person back when she was younger - unfortunately, his death reverted this and perhaps made her even worse than she used to be. He wished for Nimbus to follow her dreams before his death, something Fractus tried her best to let happen despite her obsession with power and glory. Much like Nimbus, he was an ice sculptor when he wasn't fighting.
Despite this, it seems he wasn't quite a perfect person. It is strongly implied, for example, that Duster's existence only came to be because he and Fractus thought a Flydevin combining both of their best traits would be very powerful, showing he, much like Fractus, cared about power too much.
==Powers and Abilities==
Diamond, while not physically imposing in the slightest, was said to be extremely agile and also able to strike very precisely. He had great reflexes, as well, which allowed him to cover his ironically weak durability for a good period. Unfortunately, his lack of durability proved to ultimately be his undoing. He was also not physically strong at all.
Diamond was an adept in Powder Winds, and specialized in the creation of ice weapons, particularly spiked chakrams which he used to strike foes with great precision, both at close and long range. He was also said to be able to use Twister Winds to make them spin at extremely high speeds, causing them to act much like sawblades, granting them great cutting power. Aside from chakrams, he could also create ice rapiers and ice shards in general. His light weight combined with his already great agility granted him inhuman agility when combined with his Twister Winds.
==Trivia==
*Diamond's name is a pun on Diamond Dust. The reason why his name is a pun on Duster's name rather than a pun on Fractus or Nimbus's name is because Nimbus was already a derivative from Fractus.
**Diamond's name was also chosen to fit with his ice theme, and for ironical reasons, seeing as he was not durable at all and said lack of durability ultimately caused his death.
*Diamond's family name, Hallion, comes from halos. This is not only a reference to the fact he's dead, but also ties in well with the "Zhantom" family name, it references his weapon of choice and it's finally a reference to the optical phenomenon, which has a tendency to form with diamond dust. The "llion" part of his name was simply added to give him a more regal or "holy" feel.
