## Backstory

Orion was born 3 years after Solar Flare was, and lived with the royal family in Equinelantis for many years, but he wasn't fully into his position as a prince and opted to be a duke instead as he felt like being a prince was too much of overwhelming task in itself. However, he made up for it when he joined the Royal Guard, where he was top in his class and became one of the best in the fleet, up to the point where he was later promoted to Captain. And for many years he lead the other guards into battles and would race in to protect his home from any dangerous threat. Then one day, he went off a journey to seek some past Jedi Temples for more info on the Force, but after 4 years, but he nay returned and the family assumed he had later deceased, even more so when a search party found his shuttle wreaked in a field. But Solar Flare prayed that Orion would one day return home.

## Bio

Many years later, sometime after Equinelantis was restored to Equestria, Solar Flare had a vision proclaiming Orion was alive and well.

### Personality

Orion is a wise alicorn. With many years of wisdom and experience gained, as he teaches it to his nieces. And as a royal guard, he strives to protect the land with a proud stand, and never puts his own deeds in front of his colleges' own. And is willing to help out anyone who needs it. And is quite generous, as he uses his magic siphoning skill to give sick, and weaker equines magic they need to get better from criminals who are sentenced to death. And in tough times, Orion sustains a calm, demeanor and rarely raises his voice or gets angry. However, when facing against beings who are arrogant and think they're better than him and his family, he's not afraid to fight back and in most cases uses the Royal Voice to make a point to them.

And when someone really pushes his buttons, Orion will then later get his own back at the individual in question, not for vengeance, more so to prove he's a lot stronger than they think and his age doesn't make him weak. And in other times, he'll use reverse psychology to get himself out of skirmishes. And despite his age, he's a really strong being. But when you mess with his family, watch out because he unless a strong fury upon being causing the trouble and not stop until they are put to an end.

And for his years under the Royal Guard, Orion is quick-witted and fast resourceful to figure out how to end threats or put an end to a thug's terror. And when faced with seriously dangerous beings, he uses his smarts to outsmart and defeat them in the end.

* **Sun Raising:** Orion can also raise the sun like his niece Celestia.
* **Magic siphoning:**Orion is also able to siphon magic out of other equines like how Tirek could, but in his case, he uses for it for good. Where when prisoners in the dungeon/prison are sentenced to Death, he takes away their magic and gives to other equines who *really* need it.

**Strength:**Being an Alicorn, Orion sustains a high amount of strength higher than any earth pony's own.

**Flight: Orion** is also a skilled flyer as he can fly at high speeds and in quick maneuvers.

**Force Skills: Orion** isan incredibly powerful Force user and warrior. Orion's mastery of the Force was extensive. He was known for his resistance to the lures of the dark side, channeling his inner darkness into his attacks to help him serve the light side of the Force. This allowed him to utilize some of the darkest powers known to either Jedi or Sith without succumbing to his aggression, such as the terrible Force Crush. And he specializes in strong versions of every average trick used by the majority of all Jedi. And he can use the Force to enhance his physical fighting on his enemies. And he also had taken on using Electric Judgment which he uses to incapacitate criminals or threats to the throne.

**Lightsaber Combat:**Orion is also a highly skilled Lightsaber duelist. Utilizing a **Jar'Kai**-style combat mixing up **Form IV: Ataru** with **Form V: Djem So/Shien** in a Shien-style reverse grip with his guard shotos. But he is also highly skilled with **Form VI: Niman** and **Form III: Soresu** for when he's trying to disarm someone, and on serious occasions uses **Form VII: Juyo**. And his fighting style is like no-other's since his sabers contain blasters within them, he utilizes a fighting style where he uses his sabers for close quarter fighter and lays down blaster fire to keep his opponents at bay, or when in a blade-lock he'll fire a stun shot at the being or a well-placed blaster shot in a place that subdues the fighter.

**Marksmanship:**Being captain of Equinelantis' Royal Guard, Orion is a very highly skilled marksman as he can dual wield his guard shotos' blasters with high accuracy and precise hits.

**Power via Thunderløre:** Due to the enchantments placed upon the mystical ax-sword, Orion was granted the ability to focus his innate mystical abilities and harness them. It allowed him to easily harness his dominion over weather elements and that allowed for several other sub-abilities to follow suit. Along with the discovery of his powers originating from himself instead of his weapon, Orion retained the abilities he had with and without Thunderløre once he obtained Typhoon Cracker, which also amplified them to a degree.

* **Weather Manipulation**: Wielding Thunderløre's helped refine Orion's power to give him the ability to control the base elements of a storm. It could control the elements and create giant raging electrical storms complete with thunder, lightning, hurricane-force winds, tornadoes, tidal waves, earthquakes, and torrential rains all on a moment's notice. With Thunderløre's help, Orion was able to summon an isolated class 5 tornado while battling the ???? as well as a lightning bolt strong enough to destroy a large piece of landscape in Jotunheim. The Norse myths and legends regarded him as the God of Thunder because of the hammer's influence over the weather. After discovering that Thunderløre was only used to focus his power and was never the source of it, Orion was able to summon thunder and lightning from the sky as well as from his own body. With the use of Typhoon Cracker, the abilities Orion had with his ax-sword are restored and greater enhanced.
* **Lightning Manipulation**: Orion's main weapon while using Thunderløre is the ability to summon a lightning bolt from the surrounding skyline. As well as being able to channel electricity on its own Thunderløre is able to attract the ambient electricity from the surrounding atmosphere and redirect it towards a given target, such as when he summoned electricity from inside of Equinelantis Castle and used it to bring to life. While on Jotunheim, Orion summoned a huge lightning bolt, strong enough to destroy a large portion of the landscape. During the Battle of ????, Orion used the spire of the ????? to channel a tremendous lightning bolt, which he directed at the portal of the Beetlemen to deter a portion of the enemy reinforcements, managing to bring down two massive Leviathan and numerous Bettlemen aliens with the blast. During the Battle of ????, Orion was able to generate an incredible amount of lighting, helping ????? swiftly smite the hovering Sokovian capital city into oblivion, thwarting Ultron's plans in the process. After his visions of Odin and discovering Thunderløre was not the source of his powers, he became capable of summoning thunder and lightning without it and even generating electrical energy from his own body. Orion's power over electrical energy was greatly enhanced by his use of Typhoon Cracker, which restored and improved upon the abilities he possessed with Thunderløre.
* **Flight**: Orion was capable of hurling Thunderløre with great force and, by holding onto the leather thong, was capable of flying through the air at immense speeds. How fast exactly was not specified, but he was able to remain aloft in the middle of a Class 5 tornado, and traverse the distance from his father's chambers to Heimdall's observatory and back again in seconds. Using Thunderløre, Orion could also move across the New Mexico desert in a matter of seconds. While flying, Orion can use his speed to strike enemies with immense force, such as when he tackled Hulk through a wall, tackled Malekith in and out of portals, and when Orion killed a Frost Beast on Jotunheim by flying through its skull.
* **Weight Manipulation**: Thunderløre's enchantment allows its worthy wielders to swing it nearly effortlessly yet, in reality, it is extremely heavy to an average person. Its ability to manipulate its weight allows Orion to hurl Thunderløre at great speeds or alternatively by holding onto the leather thong and whirling it like a flail, use the hammer as a thrashing vortex. In Jotunheim, he bashes the Frost Giants around him, then throws Thunderløre, making it hit multiple Frost Giants in its path in moments. Quicksilver, Loki and Hulk were pinned down by Thunderløre's awesome weight, though also due to them being unworthy to wield it.
* **Energy Projection**: With Thunderløre, Orion could project blasts, waves, and bolts of electrical energy of various sizes and intensities. While the hammer can generate electrical energy, it can channel more energy from the lightning storms it creates to summon its lightning for powerful energy attacks. With Thunderløre, Odin could project a powerful beam of golden light and use it to take away all of Thor's superhuman powers, destroy what was left of Thor's armor after stripping much of it off of him, and ultimately send him flying into the Bifrost.
* **Armor Generation**: By summoning lightning from the sky into Thunderløre, Orion's clothes are transformed into his combat armor. The hammer was also able to transform Orion's clothing into those worn by humans, while it could appear as an umbrella. With the use of Typhoon Cracker, Orion is able to transform his clothing into his combat armor once more.

* **Weapon Summoning**: Thunderløre obeyed Orion's summons as though it was driven by a form of intelligence. Thunderløre went to Orion when it was in a crater miles away, arriving in seconds. Thunderløre would return to Orion whenever he threw it at an opponent. While battling Hulk in a hanger of the Helicarrier, Orion summoned Thunderløre from another room and it came crashing through the Helicarrier to get to him. Orion's newest weapon, Stormbreaker, retains Thunderløre's ability to be summoned and telekinetically controlled by the user.
* **Resurrection**: Thunderløre possessed the ability to revive people back from death itself and to restore them to optimum health like when it resurrected Orion as he was passing away due to being injured by the Destroyer while he was mortal. This ability was passed over to Orion's replacement for Thunderløre, Typhoon Cracker, which allowed him to fully recover from nearly fatal injuries.

**Powers via Typhoon Cracker**: After acquiring a new weapon to replace Thunderløre, Orion gained additional powers through its use.

* **Teleportation**: After Orion gained his new devastating weapon, Typhoon Cracker, he was able to teleport at will, due to gaining the ability to manipulate the Bifrost Bridge. As a result, Orion instantly teleported himself, Jetpack and Chuff to Giraffica, in order to aid his allies in the battle against Darth Blackard and the Puce Order.
* **Weapon Summoning**: After Orion received his new axe/club, Typhoon Cracker, he gained the ability to summon it similar to Thunderløre.
