## Description

### Appearance

Dio is a mischievous looking human boy with black hair in loose curls down his head, some of his bangs falling into his face. His eyes are a deep purple color, He often has a twisted grin across his face. Ever since he arrived to Novacoran, he started dressing very prim, with button ups, vests, and ties.

### Personality

Dio is a laid back, and often lethargic, boy who would rather get by on having other people do his work for him. He loves to play tricks on people, and often got in trouble growing up. That said, he is has a sad streak, his heart heavy with the consequences of his wild magic running lose. He can be suave and charming, but is easily tongue-tied by people that intimidate him, that he finds cute, or both.

## Background

Dio grew up in Woodsvale with his family. Growing up, he often got in trouble for pulling pranks on the local townspeople, and his parents constantly worried about him becoming a well-adjusted individual. His magic woke up when he was young, and his parents did their best to keep it in control

One day, when Dio returned home from school, he walked into his home to find his mom's dead body on the floor. His father was over her body in hysterics before killing himself.

Since then, Dio kept to himself, pulling away from the townsfolk. The community came together to take care of him, helping pay for his rent and food until he was able to get a job.

As he got older, his wild magic became harder to control, and he would often head into The Twisted Tangle woods where he knew others would not be when he felt a surge coming on. When these fits of magic overcame him, his demeanor shifted to a more apathetic individual who wanted others to do his bidding. He lingered in the woods, and as people came to find him, his magic subdued them, alluring them to take care of him.

For reasons beyond his understanding, he was targeted by a man named Alteo, who wanted to use his magic to help awaken the The Hundred-Handed Horror.

The Sovereign Syndicate was hired to help find Dio and the people under his magic's control. They were able to find him, stop Alteo, and took Dio back to the capital to be under the watch of Eldwin Oros.

Currently, he resides within Amnesty Plaza in Novacoran, and is being trained by Lord Eldwin to control his magic.

## Relationships

### Kathra

Both Kathra and Dio were taken in by Lord Eldwin in order to get a better grasp of their wild magic. Her acts of bravery in The Twisted Tangle caught his eye, and he found comfort in knowing someone else felt the same about their magic as he did - scared to let it loose out of the fear of hurting those around him. Because of this, he has a soft spot for Kathra, and his suave demeanor melts away when she's around.

## Trivia

* Dio's original conception was supposed to be much more malicious than what he is now. His demeanor when his magic is in control was just supposed to be Dio, but as I planned the first arc, I wanted him to be a more sympathetic character. Thus, his more apathetic persona was born.
* There may or may not be other individuals of Dio's... archetype... if you catch my drift.
* I loathed calling him Dio because I knew the Jojo jokes were coming, but his name being Dionysus was very important to me, and I didn't want to call him... Ysus for short, so here we are!
