**Perseus VII Gorgonio** is the oldest son and child between Prince Sepher of Sagära and his secret wife Amatis, he is the eldest male descendant of Queen Circe making him her heir due to the death of his father.

He is the oldest of triplet boys, with his younger twin brothers being Adonis and Klaus. His younger sister is Delphyni and is the only sister through both of his parents. He does have four half-siblings through his mother named Aretias, Lukrezia, Elyan and Lysander.

## Personality

Perseus is the conflicted yet ruthless eldest son of Sepher Gorgonio. Most of the time he is arrogant, serious and without mercy. At other times he is temperate and compassionate. He holds quite a disturbing love for his sister, Delphyni whom is the only one he is completely loyal to and the one who can bring out his softer side. Perseus does indulge his prodigious sexual appetites with a number of willing young women, including priestesses in temples.

He is characterized by great intelligence, sharp wit, and high self-esteem. Overall, he is an even more cunning leader than his father was, but his greatest weakness is that he lacks Sepher's great patience.

Perseus is also a brilliant tactician, warrior, and manipulator, which makes him more suitable for the position of the Captain General of the Sagäran army than Adonis. His awareness of his superiority over his brother, makes Perseus bitter towards both his grandmother and Adonis for the post he has to hold.

## Appearance

Perseus has long black hair with streaks of gilded red at the tips of his hair at curl, cat-like eyes, and a smile that cuts like a knife. He also has the intense eyes of the Gorgonio's, having yellow to grey ombré like the Chimera's on their sigil, depending on his mood the grey in his eyes takes over when in rage or in hungry and when the yellow in his eyes takes over when he is in a frenzy or happiness. He is of stocky build but is also very muscular and toned in physical appearance.

Due to his Aesiran heritage, he has a slight point to his ears with no earlobes, and a tail but due to being involved in the (\*&\*) Revolution he has a replacement end in which is trident. Like the other members of his paternal family, he has two beauty mars one directly under his right eye and another on his left cheek.

### Tattoos

* On his chest, Perseus has the pagan cross with a serpent wrapped around it along with four wings and a crown hovering above the serpent. This is the heraldry the *Prince of Nymuri* wears to protect their homeworld and the religion of the old ways.
* He has effigies of the Mor'du and El'du on his shoulders, along with the sun and the moon above them.
* Upon his chest wrapping around his shoulders and onto his back, Perseus has the runic names for all the major gods except in the middle where his heart is.

## Abilities and Skills

* **Aesiran Physiology** - Perseus is half-Aesiran and half-Human, his physiology is closer to his Aesiran side having a long tail, communicate with animals, an enhanced metabolism, superior muscle density and the ability to be able to directly connect with the mana around him without trying.
	+ **Mana Manipulation** -
		- **Resonance** -
	+ **Zoolingualism** - As part-Aesiran, Perseus has the ability to communicate with any animal.
	+ **Abnormal Muscular Constitution** - Due to the uniqueness of his muscle structure, Perseus speed, strength, and dexterity are far beyond the boundaries of an ordinary human. His physical abilities are heightened to the point where he can perform any physical activity without difficulty. He merely needs to imagine himself doing the act in his mind, then he is able to perform it without any problem.
		- **Enhanced Metabolism** - A trait Perseus inherits from his Aesiran side, no matter how much he eats, Perseus can never gain weight or get any fatter.
	+ **Laser Tail** - Perseus is able to fire laser beams from the tip of his tail. However, his tail is both a weapon and his weakness, for it is very sensitive. In combat, his tail is blindingly fast enough to relentlessly attack and endanger even the most powerful enemies, giving them too little time to regenerate if they could. While all Aesirans have the power to shoot energy from their tails, Perseus tail is so powerful that he can fire a huge energy wave that spans a very large width, several miles in length, and destroys anything in its path, leaving a huge trail deep in the ground and a city-sized explosion at the end.
* **Familiar Contract** - Perseus has a familiar contract with Vōtan, his father's dragon that he claimed when he was thirteen after completing the Agogae, as such he can use resonance despite not being a Aynokion nor a Vaner.

## Etymology

* Perseus has no true meaning in Aesiran, it was adopted in tribute to Perseus Aronis a peacekeeper who crash landed on Sagära around the time of the conquest which put the planet on the map to the Aynokion's. He befriended Marvolon the Boneless and managed to convince him peace was the right course of action instead of war due to a famine happening at the time. After five battles, where neither side won Marvolon decided on peace.
	+ Perseus is possibly derived from Greek πέρθω (pertho) meaning "to destroy". In Greek mythology Perseus was a hero who was said to have founded the ancient city of Mycenae. He was the son of Zeus and Danaë. Mother and child were exiled by Danaë's father, and Perseus was raised on the island of Seriphos. The king of the island compelled Perseus to kill the Gorgon Medusa, who was so ugly that anyone who gazed upon her was turned to stone. After obtaining winged sandals and other tools from the gods, he succeeded in his task by looking at Medusa in the reflection of his shield and slaying her in her sleep. On his return he defeated a sea monster in order to save Andromeda, who became his wife.
* His surname Gorgonio can be read in Aesiran script as the "chimera's bite" or the "devouring chimera".
	+ Gorgonio is the Spanish, Portuguese and Italian form of *Gorgonios* derives from the Ancient Greek “*gorgos"* (γοργώ), meaning “dreadful, terrifying, ugly, relating to Gorgon”. In Greek mythology, a Gorgon is a female creature. While descriptions of Gorgons vary across Greek literature and occur in the earliest examples of Greek literature, the term commonly refers to any of three sisters who had hair made of living, venomous snakes, as well as a horrifying visage that turned those who beheld her to stone.
