Capra Profile: Thaleon

Name: Thaleon Classification: Capra of Divine Resistance Bonded Handler: Nyra (formerly) Current Status: Deceased – Remembered as a Guardian-Saint of the North

General Description: Thaleon was a towering Capra, known for his darkened hide and molten-orange mane that glowed faintly in moments of tension or purpose. With heavy curled ram horns, eyes of deep emberlight, and scorched markings along his flank, he stood as a symbol of silent defiance against the rising shadows.

He was not the most approachable Capra, but he was deeply loyal to Nyra, his first and only bonded. In life, Thaleon carried a commanding presence and carried out his protection with a near-militant precision. He was most known for standing between entire hunting parties and the beasts that emerged from the Nyxborn corruption.

Traits:

• Emberhide Blessing: His body bore light-imbued scars left by dark encounters. These gave him a resistance to shadow-based magic and made him a living ward against the Nyxborn.

• Silent Stance: Thaleon never made unnecessary sounds. His communication was often through gaze, gesture, and posture.

• Mourned Companion: After his final sacrifice, Nyra braided a lock of his mane into a charm she still wears, believed to repel minor darkness and carry his memory.
  

Legacy: A statue now stands in the heart of Nyra's village—crafted not in grandeur, but in reverence. Villagers often touch the legs of the statue for protection before setting off into the deeper woods. He is not worshipped, but remembered, honored as the Capra who gave everything. His tale is a reminder to all Handlers that their bond is a sacred one—and that divine light may dwell quietly in even the most fearsome forms.
