Velon

== General ==
Velon-Urg is an adventure seeking child who houses the dream-spirit and voice of a long dead Higher Being inside his mind and whose mere existence is thanks to his mad father making a deal with the Higher Being to remove a predator out of his own mind.
== Appearance ==
Rotund with a bulbous head with three deep blue eyes, bears a blue cloak and a claw of Kaarfrilex attached to a necklace around his neck. Possesses a near infinite extendable neck but prefers not to use it.
== Origin ==
Born from a jar of salt in Hallownest as heir to the throne of the Solan-Urg Dynasty of Guham; Velon is the result of Vengan trying to reignite his species and to keep the end of a deal made years ago with a Higher Being known as Kaarfrilex. The deal was that he would remove a dream demon Rundwyre from Vengan's head, in exchange for the mind of Vengan's firstborn child. Vengan cut off one of his own seeds and fertilized it with brine, the liquid created from Kaarfrilex's rotting corpse, and kept it in a jar full of salt - years after the deal was made. During the following hours Vengan would be assassinated by Andra. Neyo, after Molten showed Vengan's corpse to him, picked up the jar the seed was in and planted it in a pot in the SHAW Headquarters, where Velon would sprout and spend the majority of his childhood days.
== Storyline ==
He was raised by Neyo and Hemmingsworth and made friends with many people. He developed a liking for adventure and hunting and would go out of his way to satisfy his desires. During random intermissions, the dream spirit of Kaarfrilex would speak through his mouth ominously - Velon would come to dislike him and his voice immensely.
Growing up, he left the SHAW Headquarters (that converted into the Anti-Threat Association) many times to pursue expeditions laid out to him by Kaarfrilex, hunting many creatures he deemed unworthy of living - eventually even "killing" Olgur. He inherited his father's hook which he removed the ember of and replaced it with brine. He would come to train with Mug to enhance his abilities despite the warnings Kaarfrilex continually shouted into Velon's head. Eventually, the voices becoming too much to handle and Kaarfrilex controlling his body in many occasions, Velon made the decision to leave Anti-Threat Association and Neyo for good in order to not let any harm come to them from Kaarfrilex and himself. 
He would help those in need in Hallownest but for the majority of his time he'd sulk in the Wastelands. During one of his stays in Hallownest, he found the entrance to the Hive and investigated the bees in the Crown & Scepter Quest. He participated in the quest alongside Myrelynx and Domanimi but got fucked by Vomv controlled by Volani and lost his marble dagger. He almost died but was rescued by Domanimi. He later also participated in The Mad Society Quest alongside Erupa - who lost her arm while fighting Queen-Beast Calâk-Dorë. Velon would come to kill the beast and claim one of her teeth as a weapon but would come to be severely wounded. He also killed a Maggot Acolyte in blind rage after the fight, either as a product of Kaarfrilex or as his inner demons surfacing.
Just hours before the Nadir, Velon would re-encounter Olgur in the Wastelands - now in his completely mutated Oddity form. He would taunt Velon and eventually try to kill him. The fight lasted for a few seconds as the Oddity trampled over Velon and Velon stuck his hook into the torso of the beast. Olgur would retreat into a cave and Velon would bleed out on the ground. He would be erased during the Nadir.
== Personality ==
Ecstatically happy with a layer of understanding and dread beneath it.
== Abilities ==
Velon is capable of summoning balls and pillars of salt (as dumb as that is) and can summon brine inside of the enemy. Skilled with nail arts and magic, is pretty good with the hook too. Can extend his neck to near infinity but prefers not to as he finds it unnatural.
== Bonds ==
Neyo as foster-father, Hemmingsworth as an ally, Mugwunp as a... "weird friend", Echo as a nice friend, the Troupe as very scary and odd, Scarlett as the scariest creepiest creature of them all, bees as very scary threats, and Kaarfrilex as an evil force he has to put up with.
== Trivia ==
HEAVILY allergic to lifeblood just like his father, considered joining the Raincatchers if he ever left the grasp of Kaarfrilex, technically the last prince of a dead kingdom.
