Character Information
Summary
Medaron is an ex-Tir Tairngire nationalist. He was an elite Ghost and Paladin of the Hunt, utilizing his adept powers to assist with stealthy patrols, infiltration, firearms, and leadership. Having been fighting for a nation that "went to shit" as he puts it, he deserted the TT forces, declared dead/MIA in TT, and fled to Seattle. Now, self-exiled from TT, he bears a great distrust and suspicion of high-ranking officals from TT. Nowadays, he goes by Alex Bonnar (with a Fake SIN), and his runner name Medaron - meaning Death, in Sperethiel. He now works as a street samurai and runner, using his skills honed in the TT military (albeit watered down by years of smoking and laziness), to perform the role of team leader, ranged support, and infiltrator.
Goals
○ Build up Connections: Aside from his war chum McClane, Medaron doesn't really know anyone in Seattle aside from a Fixer, and some other "allies" he came across running various jobs.
○ Get in Shape: The heavy smoking has taken a toll on his combat and awakened powers. He is now a mere shadow of his former self from his days as a Paladin.
○ Remain pure: To this date, Medaron has not taken any biological or cybernetic enhancements, drugs, or alcohol. Smoking and a sedentary lifestyle are the only vices that plague him. He plans to keep it that way.
○ Give Support to his War Chum: Medaron owes a life-debt to McClane, for rescuing him after a grievous injury which left his face and shoulder burned. He would have bled to death had he not been saved. He will do what he can to ensure his friend does not relapse, and work with him to improve his life so he can see his kids again.
o Overthrow Tir Tairngire leadership: Yes, an extreme longshot, but what if.... he hates the current regime, and is still a purist Xenophobe at heart. While his friendship with a human has taken that severe edge off, he still believes TT should be an Elf nation only, without the stain of other races.
Background
Cian Crowe was born Oct 2nd, 2025 in the Mount Rainier area to parents who were members of the Cénesté branch of the Sinsearach elves. In his formative years, he lived through several major events. At the age of 10, his people seceded from the Salish-Shidhe Council and formed Tír Tairngire. A mere 4 years after TT was established, violent protests broke out against metahumans, leading to riots and deaths tolling in the thousands. It was the single greatest anti-metahuman riot of all time.
During this time, his family had moved to Portland Oregon, where it was relatively safer. At the age of 18, the star chamber was established, and Cian was at the age for enlistment into the military. By this time, he was already extremely interested in firearms and blades, noteably anything from Ares. He was very competent in ranged and melee combat, due to his adept powers that awakened at puberty, and he had a knack for tactical thinking.
In 2053, now a seasoned combatant, and new member of the Ghosts, he was sent with the army to Northern California to take the Shasta Dam, where the Great Dragon Hestaby defeated and repelled the attack. At this point in his career, he had been chosen to join the Paladins of the Great Hunt, also called Ehran's Paladins, due to his natural aptitude and quick thinking that saved his unit. During the years between 2053 and 2076, he had been involved in patrolling among the border, as well as quelling dissent and riots within the city walls.
In 2075 TT rebels began a massive terroristic campaign against Royal and Ducal rank families in Eugene and Salem, culminating with a bombing of the Portland Wall at Checkpoint Charlie. This led to the beginning of destabilization where the Peace Force and Paladin's of the Hunt engaged in guerilla warfare with the rebels. It was at this time he was grievously injured in battle, and while injured on the battle field, he became disillusioned with the TT cause. He faked his death, deserted, and fled across the border. Here, he took up a fake persona "Alex Bonnar" and adopted the nickname "Medaron".
Narrative Significant Qualities
Positive
○ Natural Athelete & Agile Defender: The 5 rules of Dodgeball: Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive and Dodge. At a young age, Medaron was very quick and athletic, combining his physical fitness, spatial awareness, and natural athletic talent, he achieved peak performance by puberty, and with his Adept power awakening, he was in prime physical shape. Smoking and a sedentary lifestyle certainly put a hamper on his skills during his time after the TT military, but even so, he is still quick and athletic and can easily put the common person to shame.
○ Perfect Time: Due to his constant training in atheltics and agility activities, Medaron has developed an almost unnatural sense of timing and rhythm. Combined with his physical aptitude, he can often achieve more in a short time than the typical person.
○ Perceptive: Due to his combat training and firearms specialty, he has learned and developed a keen eye.
○ Mentor Spirit (Dragonslayer): Appeared as Medaron awakened his adept powers, has always been a positive influence to the young Elf, guiding his pupil to life a life of fun and heroics. This influence has caused Medaron to be a mostly jovial guy, but his time in the TT military and his self-exile, had put a more sarcrastic twist on said joviality. To this end; however, Medaron strives to act with honor and respect, and demands the same from those around him. He does not give his word lightly, but when he does, he will strive to keep it.
○ Mentor's Mask: When the Mask materializes, it takes on the form of a fantasy-style knight's helmet, with an enclosed visor. If he was already wearing his helmet, it looks as if the helmet itself morphs into that styled helmet. If he has no helmet on, it's an almost ethereal form of it.
Negative
○ Dependent (Inconvenience): As a heavy smoker, Medaron smokes almost constantly, almost as an absent minded habit. He can typically curb the cravings if he needs to become a shadow and sneak around, but at times of high strees, or when he's not really doing anything, he's typically smoking.
○ Incompetent (Acting): Medaron is honest almost to a fault. He won't spill the beans when someone else is trying to con someone, and he can lie through his teeth, but when it comes to pretending to be someone else, or fast-talking to get his way, or talking in front of a crowd to present something, he just can't do it. Or won't. He has no interest, nor talent, in any of the above.
○ No Man Left Behind: As a soldier, and a leader, Medaron has a loyalty to his brothers in arms; race, status, and beliefs be damned. If he is commanding a unit, he will not rest until he is able to bring every one home - alive. This also somewhat extends to innocents, but he will not risk bodily harm to himself or team mates to save them, but he also not cause harm to innocents, unless it is a necessity.
○ Prejudice (Specific, Biased): He is very biased against the ruling body of Tir Tairngire, and their supporters in the elite ranks. He feels they are usurpers, and no longer holding the values that he beleives TT should stand for. While xenophobic, his years after leaving TT has dulled that Edge, but he still holds a belief that TT should be pure, and those in leadership do not deserve his respect.
○ SINner (Nation, Tir Tairngire): Ex-Nationalist, presumed dead due to being MIA during the coup.
Narrative non-mechanical Quality
○ Brand Loyalty (Ares): Medaron is a complete fanboy of anything and everything Ares. The quality, the design, the feel. From clothing, to armor, to weapons, to ammo. Medaron will literally go out of his way to buy equipment that has the Ares logo. It's not like he won't use anything else, but his preference is certainly what he is familiar with. If it weren't for becoming a Ghost and later a Paladin of the Hunt, he likely would have tried to join Knight Errant in Salem, and rise to the top.

Desperado
During the years between 2059-2066, he had been saved by a CAS combat rescue tech named Joel McClane during border skirmishes. When Cian deserted the TT military he had left to seek shelter and assistance from McClane in Seattle. Upon arriving, he found that McClane was in prison. He took on a street samurai lifestyle, taking on odd jobs for work, got himself a ride and a cheap place in Seattle. Once McClane was released, Cian got in contact with him, and due to his chum being an ex-Con, decided to let him crash on his couch, and eventually lure him into a life of running in the shadows.

Appearance
Clothing

For regular wear, Medaron often just walks around with his bike racing gear - dark colored clothing with Ares logos and patterns. He'll often wear his racing armor in public, along with AR gloves, arm guards, and leg protection. He usually wears mirrored sport sunglasses and carries his helmet usually on a belt loop, when not wearing it. Otherwise, he has an Ares branded backpack with the remainder of his gear.
Matrix Persona
