Roderick Lincoln

Roderick Lincoln is the heir to the Lincoln Clan; the eldest son of Orion and Artemis and elder brother to Robin Lincoln of Team RAIN. His signature weapon is Redhilt, a greatsword capable of bursting into flames.
During the Battle of Knothole, Roderick stayed behind with his mother, Artemis, following his father's death so that he could allow the rest of his allies to escape. Though presumed dead by those who fled, he was in actuality defeated and captured by Kamala Braith along with many other Lincoln clansmen, and is currently being held in Zenith.
== Appearance ==
Roderick is a tall man of fairly muscular build with tan skin, long brown hair and blue eyes. His hair is left hanging loose with a few bangs hanging over his forehead, and he has a full beard. Across his nose he has a horizontal scar that turns diagonally downwards on his inner left cheek. He also has a fairly pronounced jawline and cheekbones.
He wears a brown vest jacket with shoulder pads over a red-grey t-shirt, with light grey-brown trousers, brown gaiters and boots and elbow length fingerless gloves. Over his back he has a scabbard in which he keeps his weapon.
==Personality==
Roderick is a charismatic and kind man, if a little insecure about his future leading the clan. He is good at using a mix of firmness and kindness, a skill learned from trying to manage and balance his siblings' different attitudes. He has all the skills to lead his clan on paper, but falters in execution.
He is notably soft around his sister, and possesses decent paternal qualities.
Following the death of his father, Roderick takes one of the man's swords as tribute and later uses it to fend off Kamala Braith with his mother, ordering the rest of his family to flee. Roderick makes the ultimate sacrifice to save his siblings and daughter, confirming he would do anything for his family. He is captured by the Braiths, however, and is eventually bullied into doing Kamala's bidding - leading him to again question his role in the clan after his father's death.
== Trivia ==
=== Allusion ===
* Roderick alludes to folkloric character "Rhydderch the Generous"
** "Rhydderch" is the Welsh form of "Roderick".
**Rhydderch the Generous's sword was named Dyrnwyn - "Whitehilt" - while Roderick's weapon is named Redhilt.
**When drawn by a worthy or well-born man, Dyrnwyn would blaze with fire. Redhilt is imbued with Fire Dust, causing it to erupt into flames on command.
**Rhydderch was never reluctant to hand Dyrnwyn weapon to anyone. Roderick handed his weapon to his sister Robin when sacrificing his life to protect her and their family.
=== Colour Naming Rule ===
* His forename means "Reddish-Brown"
* His surname alludes to Lincoln green, the colour worn by Robin Hood.
