Character
Theme
General
Hyuponia Lunamaesta is a dishonorably discharged member of the Maelstrom, and orphaned former ward of the Garlean occupied Ala Mhigo. From an eary age, Hyuponia had been exposed to the cruelty and indoctrination of the Empire. Despite this, he is a self stylized hopeful realist, with a generally relaxed approach to both his casual dealings and problems. He is possessed of an almost singular desire to preserve nature and the life it nourishes, and is fiercely defensive of those he considers family. Hyuponia can be seen as a fairly amiable individual if not a little awkward, though subconsciously this all serves to hide the festering wounds of an emotionally turbulent and angry youth.
When abroad, Hyuponia will typically be found in the guise of a Scholar, working on maintaining a burgeoning bestiary of Fiends and flora. When he is at home however, he will often be found in the habit of the White Mage, performing his duties as a Hearer to those that require succor within the Twelveswood.
Appearance
Hyuponia is a rather tall Midlander, owing in large part to his heritage. Standing at an even six feet, with a swimmer's build of well toned muscle, this gives him an almost gangly and scrawny silhouette when clothed. His eyes are an intelligent and aggressive soul piercing red. While sharp and intimidating on their own, they are however dulled significantly by his rounded, nearly effeminate face and bone structure. If not for his height, he could almost be described as boyish. Hyuponia's hair can be typically seen as a deep shade of Gysahl green, but this is not in fact natural: Hyuponia's real hair color is a bright shock of blonde, which he carefully dyes and maintains this particular hue. If one were to see him stripped of clothing, they would find most of his body a tapestry of scars of various age and type, and traditional leather armor indicative of his home as subligar. While most of the scars would be Fiend made, there are some instances of weapon inflicted wounds. The most prominent of these would be quite fresh as well: A long stripe of somewhat bubbling pink in a clean laceration from his left hip to right shoulder blade.
Combat
General
Hyuponia is an extraordinarily gifted Conjurer, though some luck and necessity drew this latent power of him. From an early age he had always been afflicted with an aetheric anemia that sapped his strength and threatened his health. When the whispers of Elementals came offering aid in return for his servitude, his answer had always been singular. To say that Hyuponia fights with nature's fury as a result would be a gross misconception. Hyuponia is nature's fury. At the Elemental's behest he can call upon powerful forms of White Magic in his service to the Twelveswood, though most of his martial strength lies in Arcanism and Thaumaturgy when otherwise abroad.
To supplant his poor inherent aetheric reserves and lessen his burden upon nature, Hyuponia carries a number of aspected crystals and alchemical tinctures on his person at all times when traveling outside of the Twelveswood. He primarily uses these to power both his grimoire's arcane geometries and Thaumaturgy. As a result of this unorthodox style of magical experimentation, it is actually fairly easy to defeat the young man should he be caught unawares. --It would be as simple as relieving him of arms and equipment.
While fairly athletic and tall for a Midlander, Hyuponia's illness makes it rather difficult for him to engage in prolonged strenuous physical activity as well. As a result of this he tends to try and avoid conflict whenever possible, and end it as viciously and pragmatically as he can when it is unavoidable otherwise. This level headed approach to combat does not stop him from flying into passionate rages however, and the young man can be easily lead to exhausting himself when pushed to his emotional limit.

History/Timeline
Early Years
Hyuponia, birth given name Hyutt Moonkiln, was born in the year 1555 of the Sixth Astral Era to mother Anelane Cadence, and father Jarvis Moonkiln. Shortly after his arrival, Hyuponia's parents died in the revolt against King Theodorac, leaving him and older brother Arcadius Moonkiln orphaned. Having no immediately known extended family, the two were taken into the care of the newly come Garlean Empire as wards of the state. Five years pass, and in this time Hyuponia is subjected to various cruelties in his upbringing surrounding the growing conflicts between his countrymen and their instilled ideals and the oppressive foreign interests of the Empire. Arcadius joins the growing Ala Mhigan resistance at eighteen years of age, and 'kidnaps' Hyuponia in disguise, bringing him to Little Ala Mhigo during the first wave of the refugee movement. Feeling unable to fight with his presence and unwilling to raise his younger brother himself, Arcadius leaves Hyuponia in the care of his fellow countrymen to rejoin the battle. Arcadius is never seen by his brother again. Completely isolated, and with no real identity of his own, Hyuponia sheds his birth name for the more whimsical moniker he now bears.--A quiet and childlike homage to the parents he had never known.

Rumors
Common Rumors
- "Hyuponia? Yeah, there's a Hearer of that description who works a lot out of the Lavender Beds. Friendly guy. Doesn't charge you anything if you need healing; magical or otherwise."
Moderate Rumors
- "He had a hard time learning the salute of the Twin Adders. Saw him get chewed out by a senior officer once because he went to do the -Maelstrom's- own gesture one too many times. The stones on the man if it were a joke honestly, he just kinda.. Stared at him. While getting a proper tongue lashing."
- "He's always out by the lake at night in Old Gridania. Brings a book, waits for the fireflies to come out. Nice and timely, that one. When they start circling, he just closes the book and watches them fly. If you asked me? He's waiting aught for something or someone to arrive."
Rare Rumors
- "Hyuponia Lunamaesta? They say some call him the 'Demon of Nature'. That the boy's got the Greenwrath in him, especially for Garleans and folk what disturb the Twelveswood. Mention the Empire around him, you'll see the glint in his eye. The look of murderous intent.."
- "Aye, I know 'im. Bastard was among our ranks during a skirmish with Castrum Occidens. Goddamn fool charged an entire company of Garleans after we gave him orders to fall back and tend to the wounded. I don't give a mummer's fart as to whether or not he thought it was worth it, either. He may as well have just killed our friends with his own two hands."
