Elios
A farmer now, a soldier underneath — and the one Rhianna trusts to hold things when she's gone.
He will not pick up a weapon unless he has decided he has to — which is exactly why Rhianna puts him in charge when her crew is away. Elios is a compact man who carries old muscle under the softness of farm years, with eyes that still move like a soldier's.
His instinct is to defend what he built a normal life to protect. He's a combat-capable NPC who will not casually pick up a weapon, which makes the moment he does cross that threshold meaningful. The name itself is one of the Lygos-origin options in the Lightbearer playbook.
Moves
- Recognize a dangerous situation before softer people do
- Refuse to be drawn back into violence — until the moment he decides it's necessary
- Offer hard-nosed counsel that cuts sentiment out of a decision

GM notes
Useful as a combat-capable NPC who will not casually pick up a weapon. His threshold makes the moment he does cross it meaningful.
