シオン (Shion, Sion) – Sion (pronounce like “Sea own”, not like the typical “Psy on”) is the swordsman with the most potential within the ranks of the Knights of Cryune Castle. A bit of a hot-head, Sion is always ready to rush into a fight. His hot-headedness is rivaled only by one other character that we’ll see here pretty soon…

Sion is a soldier of Cryunne Castle who lives with his brother Doug in the town of Vad. Sion strives to be the strongest man in the land, he participates in the Tower of the Valiant competition to put his strength to the test. He longs to outmatch his mentor Taurus, the strongest warrior of Cryunne. Sion becomes the holder of the Life Jade during the game.

As expected from a swordsman, Sion's strong point is with physical attacks. He is lacking in the mantra department and doesn't gain much MP as he levels up. But yet, he does equip some of the strongest weapons in the game. Give him a Spirit item or cast a 'madness' mantra on him and he'll be of some good use in boss battles.
