• Description

  Ganon stands at an imposing eight feet, eight inches of scaly muscle, tooth, and claw. Broad-shouldered and long-bodied, the serpent's torso is flexible, typically arched into a smooth curve up to his neck, where he retains a shock of dark-red hair, with red and golden feathers interspersed within it-- not woven in, but part of the mane, which falls messily from the top of his head down the back of his neck. His scales contrast his hair sharply-- shiny emerald in color, with bands of white stretching across his back and down his tail. He stands on a pair of taloned, digitigrade legs, which paired with his slightly overlong arms and dextrous hands complete the sense of lankiness and length about him-- everything about him seems, to put it simply, long. Characteristic of a snake, of course.
  
  His tongue is no exception to this rule; he frequently flicks out the narrow, forked appendage over a foot from his face, even when wearing his glamour, which does a poor job of hiding it. Though he tries to maintain a stern appearance, it's not hard to get a smile out of him, though his smiles are often more disconcerting than his monocular glares-- his teeth, wicked gripping hooks and fangs that could pierce through a man's forearm, are more imposing by far than his solitary yellow eye-- he keeps the left one covered by a simple black eyepatch.
  
  His real clothing is simple, and utilitarian-- black sashes that cross his chest, providing internal pockets that he can access and which provide the base for his glamour, and black silk pants, which tie closed at a hole around his long, scaly, prehensile tail-- and what a tail it is, at nearly six feet in length, tapering to a tip fine and dextrous enough to hold and write with a pencil!

• Biography

  Ganon was born in Brazil, hatched from an egg by a human zoologist who claimed to have found it tracking jaguar movement in the Amazon rainforest. He raised the young reptile with the assistance of a local witch, versed in lore of the naga that had dwelt in the region, and of their more humanoid descendants. By the time he reached age eleven, Ganon already stood unnaturally tall amongst his friends, and after several attempts were made on his life for his valuable blood, his father began to seek out assistance with groups who could take on the serpentine child and teach him without putting him at risk. It took three more years and several cases of near disaster before Ganon's father came across the Order of the Seventh Sun and got in contact with them.
  
  By age fifteen, Ganon was living in China and learning the ways of Qi, martial arts, and the principles of the Seventh Sun. His advancement was slow at first-- it took quite some time to temper the stubborn and hot-headed youth into a disciplined fighter, but he took to his mission seriously once he was old enough to work on his own. The Seventh Sun called him to act without boundaries, holding sacred no law but the Order's own in order to achieve his goal and maintain balance of the planetary qi-- primarily the apprehension of magic users marked by the Order's seers as dangerous.
  
  He continues to carry out his orders now, on the other side of the world-- after completing his education as a physical therapist, he works in a small local practice-- and by night, steps out to cleanse the countryside of bad qi.
