Ryu Phoenix

Ryu Phoenix is a summoner that has graduated from the Academy of Magic. One of the strongest summoners in the Academy of Magic, he was also one of the first graduates. He is the servant and vessel of the demi-god Voldo, member of the sinister Forsaken and leader of the Cabal (Currently Ex-Leader due to the traitor General Maze).

Character outline
Ryu is fairly ordinary in terms of clothing, donning a simple black robe that covers most of his body. However, his overall appearance is not so normal: his hair is greying and is almost a near dead color, even though he is young; he is unusually tall, measuring well past six feet; and furthermore his eyes are dark and slit-like, giving him a sinister stare. He also keeps a wide smirk most of the time, which he has only been known to wipe off on rare occasions. He has also been known to have odd regenerative abilities, which seem to be traced to his. As Ryu doesn't display any emotion while speaking combined with his use of sarcasm, he is distrusted by many, most notably Lowe whom he fought in the past, and the Keepers in general for his past actions.

History
Not much is known about Ryu's prior history, except that he served as the vessel for the demi-god of torment Voldo, the decision being made before his birth and therefore against his will. His homeland was a plane called Focturna, where evil radiates and The Forsaken resides.

Trivia

 * According to Callum Smart, the owner of Ryu's character, his name was invented by combining two of the things he was interested in at the time. Ryu came from the name of the main protagonist in the video game series Breath of Fire, and Phoenix came from the mythological creature, the Phoenix, which Callum remarked to be his most favourite mythological creature at the time. According to Callum, he has also been using the alias Ryu Phoenix as a nickname on online video game servers.
 * Ryu's design is based off the character Ichimaru Gin, from anime and manga series Bleach, which he has been a fan of.
 * Ryu joined the Academy at 18 years of age, at which he already had his dying grey hair, adding further questions about the nature of Ryu.
