Pegasus Morningson

WARNING: This article may contain Spoilers for an ongoing or future storyline that has not been completed yet

Pegasus Morningson is the Captain of the Palace Guard 1st Company and First Blade of Leonnesh. Pegasus is one of the most important people in the crown's service, though he does not have the political presence of the Secretary-General. His duties as the First Blade are to represent the crown in trials by combat. He lives within the borders of the palace. Pegasus' life is shrouded in mystery, and many rumors and speculation surround him, particularly involving his family origins and background. It is believed that Pegasus Morningson is not his real name. He has a mentor relationship with Hsien-Ko, whom he saw potential in and took under his wing.

Appearance
Pegasus is a tall, fair skinned, blue eyed man with long glossy blond hair falling below his shoulders. While on duty, Pegasus dons a golden facemask that covers half of his face. Pegasus occasionally equips a full suit of golden armor in place of the usual palace guard captain's uniform. Off duty, he wears brightly colored expensive clothes, often adorned with jewels or feathers.

Personality
Pegasus is arrogant and charismatic, living a gaudy, luxurious lifestyle. He is a diligent worker, though his work ethic is dulled to the relative ease of his job, given his power, and appears lazy. Pegasus looks down on most of humanity. He is known to be a heartbreaker and has had many flings with beautiful and prominent women. He is headstrong and often acts without thinking, sometimes trying to intervene in situations where he is not needed. He does not show a lot of emotion beyond his veneer of lazy confidence. Beyond a playboy exterior, Pegasus is reserved and has few close friends.

Skills and Equipment.
As the First Blade of Leonnesh, Pegasus is considered the most powerful fighter in the crown's employ. As a captain of the palace guard, Pegasus has exceptional martial skills in armed and unarmed combat. He is skilled at aerial maneuvering and metal craftsmanship. Pegasus is also a trained dancer.

In addition to the standard equipment of a palace guard, Pegasus wields Nevada: The Sun King, a set of golden bracelets which can draw energy from the sun's rays. This energy can be shaped by his hands into solid, metal form, either into a stable shape or temporarily solidified solar energy. Pegasus often uses this to draw weapons and armor out of thin air. The energy can also be stored in metal, strengthening and charging it. His armor can only be broken with force exceeding the combined energy that has been deposited into it and he has a gold-threaded cape that he can charge to fly at the expense of enormous amounts of energy. The raw power he commands is such that he has been deployed to destroy the castles of disobedient lords. His strength is more appropriately gauged in comparison to the monsters of legend than other human warriors. How Pegasus came to possess such a powerful item, or how he is able to use it, remains unknown, as does the true extent of his power.
