Description:

Geryon is 6'2" and skinny as a rail. His skin is a mid-tone grey, and his hair is pure white and tends to grow strongly up and back. He always wears a diamond studded eyepatch over his right eye. His eyebrows are black and arch way up, lending a sort of disbelieving air to his standard expression.

Geryon wears fairly bright colors that set off his skin. He has a personal heraldic symbol: The Besic Serpent, vert, facing sinister, coiled about a blanc pillar.

Geryon's Coat of Arms

Geryon is the oddball Logrus experimentalist of House Swayvill. Prior to the campaign's beginning, he spent much of his time attempting to mutate serpents with Logrus energies, and rather less time being social or well-liked. He considers himself essentially an outsider to the politics and backstabbing of the Chaos nobility, and avoids fights avidly.

Geryon's life took a turn for the dangerous when he met The Dude and Cwell Vissult, each of whom he took a liking to (the other rather more than the one, it seems), and each of whom opened up whole worlds of trouble for him.

After Robelone's death, Omric Malezné appointed Geryon the Guardian of the Sword of Sorrows (or Mournblade), and having a Primal Power slung over his back seems to have wrought some changes on Geryon. There are those who might claim that a certain cockiness emerged, but others would say that Geryon's self importance was simply of lower level before.

Geryon has shown evidence for a whole lot of Logrus abilities, including abilities like summoning tons of demons at once and binding them to objects. He also claims that he can create another Abyss. He has repeatedly, emphatically, and provably implied a low Warfare.

The Sayings of Geryon

"You know, with sufficient Shapeshifting, it is actually possible to think with your gonads."

"Eyes! Eyes!"

"I don't keep women! I keep... commoners... I keep lots of commoners. I employ women."
