Bio
Valon is an agile serval and of EBC's Air Empire. He took over leadership of the empire shortly after leader Azra's mysterious disappearance. He tries to be a honorable leader, giving everyone their fair chance, and especially knows the strengths in keeping an empire together as a unit. After a harsh winter that nearly proved the end to all empires, Valon was the driving force to helping everyone get back on the road to recovery.
Valon posses extreme agility, quick reflexes, and stealth. He's also one of the quickest felines in the forest and can jump nearly 12 vertical feet. However, what he has in speed, he lacks in strength and stamina. Facing a much larger opponent in the open often puts the serval at an extreme disadvantage. He also tires quickly and can't handle long, drawn out conflicts. His best strategy is quick rushes, attacking his opponent quick then backing away before they have a chance to strike. He also uses surprise attacks often.
Background
Before his days in the Empire, Valon was a "pet" of a wealthy coliseum owner on the outskirts of Rome, though he wasn't allowed to rest in the lap of luxury like most favored felines. Valon was forced to battle day after day against animals twice his size just for people's enjoyment. Somehow though, he always seemed to survive through them all.
One night, under the cover of darkness, Valon managed to escape the coliseum through a break in his cage's bars. He ran as quick as his small feet could carry him away from his prison and unknowingly into Air Empire territory. After telling his story and promising to protect his new found companions with his life, he joined the Air Empire as a new Gladiator.
Even though he's managed to escape his former owner, it is said that his pelt carries a heavy reward and bounty hunters will stop at nothing to get their paws on him.
The scars on his face and back leg were caused by a close call in one of the battles from his fighting days. Even though his face scar runs across his left eye, he managed to keep his sight. He dislikes talking about his past, even to those that know him best.
