Equesteus (Aura)

## Description

Upon activation, this aura gives off a golden glow around the user. While the aura increases in level, one can notice that illusionary, metallic gray armor seems to form around the user within the glow. The colors of the aura may also be changed depending on the path you take within the aura.

## History

This Aura came into existence around the time of the merge, and came to be because of a knight's strong will. He became an Aegislash that had this new Aura, and he discovered the path of the White Knight. His Aura passed onto his son, who unfortunately discovered the path of the Black Knight. The aura was passed down to all of his sons and daughters, who in turn also kept passing the Aura along as the years passed. At first, the Aura mainly stayed with the Aegislash line, but in time it was passed down to several different species such as the Samurott line and the Gallade line. The main problem as to why this Aura is a Rare one is that in most cases, you have to be a descendant of Equesteus' original owner in order to have the Aura, but there have been a couple situations where it randomly popped up in different families...
