**Character Art: [Default / Dragon Form]**

## Starcluster Datapac

Lunoz was a benevolent dragon with an affinity of darkness, being the brother of Etimu. He loved his sister's work, and his presence brought out the beauty in some creatures. However, a fateful encounter with a sickly black goop would change his life for the worse. This was the Black Matter, a corruptive substance that came from the darkness Elementian, Mufog. Upon its touch, it merged with Lunoz and turned him from the graceful bringer of night to an aggressive monster whose mere presence was met with the judgement of a thousand moons.

Etimu, broken over the loss of her brother, formed a squad of dragons to stop him. Many of them were wounded, and a few even died, but they would drive Lunoz into his own Midnight Realm and keep him locked there... but they knew the seal would break. Eventually, Cybern and Hekama were tasked with doing battle with the corrupted dragon.

Due to the influence of the Black Matter, Lunoz simply could not die. A piece of him wanted to escape, but the dark goop stuck him to the evil, unable to be freed. He called out to his sister from within the cage that was his own body, and with the Dragonfire Guild's help, destroyed his body and freed his soul... a soul which took the form of an acorn upon reincarnation. He now rests in the center of an adventurers' village, casting a shielding power that keeps any and all attacks from harming the town.

## Background

### Early life

Lunoz, as Etimu's brother, helped her form many of the beautiful creatures of the Overworld. He was a benevolent dragon with an affinity for darkness, until he was struck by a glob of Black Matter, turning him evil. In his new berserk state, he ravaged the homes of many Overworlders, such as Vertos and Emeralti. When Endi'alu proved to be able to resist his commands, he sent other Enderons after him until his escape.

### *Cybern Quest*

Lunoz is fought at the end of Cybern and Hekama's adventures, delivering the wrath of his poisoned darkness upon them. However, upon defeat, he reawakens no matter who destroyed him.

### *Cybern Quest II*

Lunoz is still fought by the whole Guild at the end, but this time his soul speaks to them, begging for a way out of his cursed existence. Giving advice to Etimu and the members of the guild, he manages to help them free his soul. His body fades to dust while his soul becomes an acorn, which the group plants in what would become Cibna Village.

### *AnthonyM and the Multiverse: Crossing Rifts*

The real Lunoz offers tips to the Cause while they are in Cibna Village, while he mentions an evil clone of him created out of the Guild's memories runs rampant in his old realm, and tasks Cybern and his new friends to take him down.

The real Lunoz's spirit re-absorbs the essence, allowing him to keep shielding the village while materializing his old body. This lets him join the party at the Starcluster and gives the group the option to refight "Memory Lunoz" at any time.

## Personality

Lunoz is a more reserved dragon in his uncorrupted state, choosing to passively help anyone who is pure of heart or a friend of the Dragonfire Guild. He proves to be an excellent artist, like his sister, but is much more humble about it. He is also protective of his family and friends, using his power to make his opponents unable to act.

When corrupted, Lunoz turns into a berserk monster (and after his soul is freed, he can manually activate this state) who only cares about destruction of whatever lies in front of him. The Black Matter forms several murderous voices in his head that take control of his body when it infects him. (After his soul is freed, this "pseudo-corrupt" state no longer has an outside force controlling him.)

## Relationships

### Etimu

Lunoz dearly loves his sister, giving a layer of dark beauty to her light. Without her, he may have been unable to escape his body's limbo and he is eternally grateful that she came to help him.

### Cybern and Hekama

Lunoz appreciates the half-dragons for coming to his aid, even if his corrupt self was the killer of their society. He wishes to atone for the things he did in his past, and is grateful they're willing to give him a chance.

### The Dragonfire Guild

Lunoz is thankful of the Guild for their support in helping him readjust to his old self. He especially regrets ravaging Zarrus's hometown of Emeralti and offers him advice, and wishes to make up to Endi'alu for his corrupt self's harsh judgement of him.

### Mufog

Lunoz resents Mufog for sending him down that destructive and twisted path his body went through. While he can't exactly kill them, he wants nothing to do with them anymore.
