* Current
* Debut
* Ascended

Orizon is the titular main antagonist of the Stardust series. Also widely feared as The Destroyer, responsible for the downfall of so far seven worlds. Allegedly born from ‘They’ alongside Ecalypse in the Stardust Realm, he grew jealous of his brother's ability to create from stardust and gained a villainous and dark morality. He debuted alongside the other gods in the first chapter, Means to an End.

## Appearance

Orizon is a huge genderless white Guardian, bulkier than his counterpart with thicker strands of fur, his nose and hooves are black, and his eyes are golden. He has scars on his right ear, left eye, shoulder, muzzle, foreleg, hind leg, and is missing the tip of his tail from Ecalypse after the destruction of world one, as of September 5th 2020 his left eye was taken out by Mica, and on August 9th 2022, the tip of his right ear was ripped off by Marissa.

## Personality

The so called ‘God of Destruction’, responsible for the downfall and destruction of so far seven worlds, alongside the murder of each of their True Guardians and countless others. He is cunning and ruthless, and is no stranger to murdering in cold blood to prove a point and get his way, though despite this he is intelligent and not beyond reason, and equally willing to communicate, especially with Ecalypse and the TG’s. Alongside his brother the duo plan to once and for all take down their creator for the greater good, Orizon’s selfish mindset though often interrupts, leading him to instead tail other more self fulfilling ways of reaching his goals.

## History

### Pre-Series

The so called ‘God of Destruction’, responsible for the downfall of so far seven worlds, alongside the murder of each of their True Guardians and countless others. Orizon was created by the deity known as ‘They’, alongside his counterpart and brother: Ecalypse, as a way to combat the greater god’s longing for companionship. Ecalypse was a born creator and learnt to craft with the stardust around him, eventually using it to build a world of his own, and to one individual of his creation he entrusted it’s protection: the True Guardian. Orizon however found himself unable to replicate his brother’s efforts, growing tiresome of watching his achievements while he himself continued to fail, and so one day in anger he destroyed this world through killing it’s TG. The two fought, brutally scarring the pair, and Ecalypse swore he would one day create a world and protector strong enough to withstand Orizon, though 8 worlds later the cycle has only been continuing and growing more aggressive and fatal ever since.

Orizon is cunning and ruthless, he is no stranger to murdering in cold blood to prove a point and get his way, though despite this he is intelligent and not beyond reason, and equally willing to communicate, especially with Ecalypse and the TG’s. The brothers have little love left for their maker or each other, though having discovered the true intentions of ‘They’, the duo have agreed to reach some form of truce in the meantime while they focus on enacting their plan to have Holly kill him and then the greater deity, Orizon’s selfish mindset though often interrupts, leading him to instead tail other more self fulfilling ways of reaching his goals.

### Series 1: Means to an End

He begins his initial plan on world 8 by having allegedly ‘revived’ the past TG’s there, promising them whatever they desire should they kill Holly, though after she manages to foil this he instead preys upon Apollo, intending to use his hatred for the others as a new subject to help him take down everyone left who stands in his way, though once again, this would fail.

With no other options left and knowing he will not win alone as he wanted to, Orizon finally gives in to Ecalypse, agreeing to work together for their joint goal of killing ‘They’. The duo know they must strengthen Holly for this plan to work, and begin antagonising her and threatening the lives of her loved ones to provoke strong emotional reactions and awaken her stardust controlling capabilities. This comes to a head in September of 2020, when Ecalypse begins to have regrets of traumatising her the way they currently are, refusing to continue and begging to find another way, feeling betrayed by his brother for abandoning their plan, Orizon snaps and brutally wounds him, provoking a following bloodbath between him and the TG’s in the coming days. After Orizon presumably kills Mica and massacres her and the others, Holly reaches her limit, attempting to end her own life to stop the bloodshed, only saved when the god finally feels pity and stops her himself. Having seen the consequences of his actions, Orizon promises Holly he will leave her be so long as she agrees to find strength in her own way, until the day she is an equal and strong enough to face him once and for all, smiling and confirming that when that day should arrive, he cannot wait to lose to her.
