"Even without wings, I'll soar... Without arms, I'll fight! That's the tenacity of us chosen by Zodiac!" ~~Personal quote of Vona.
#333333 (body)
#999999 (scarf)
RHG Name: Vona.
RHG Power: Seal of Zodiac. In short, it's a strange symbol scarred onto a person's body. It grants them a sort of invincibility and incredible power at the loss of something dear, like a body part, one of the five sense or sanity. In Vona's case, he lost both his arms - although he only intended to lose one. Vona wields the four elements (fire, water, wind, earth) because of this.
RHG Weakness: Armless. This is quite a huge drawback when you really get down to it. Basic actions such as a block or shove now become literally impossible, so Vona is forced to resort to ramming, kicks and stomps. Even his control of the four elements is hindered by his lack of limbs.
RHG Story: A young warrior now cursed to forever live his life armless. Before this came to be, Vona was quite the fighter and a mage in training, living in a small community with his family of 5 - himself included. During research, he soon learnt about a long forgotten magical practice referred to as the 'sealing of Zodiac' or in some cases merely 'Zodiac'. The art intrigued him, and one night under a cover of darkness induced a sealing upon himself. Intending to lose his left arm to gain control of earth, something went wrong, and was left missing both his left and right arm. In pain, scared, and more disturbed than anything, he simply ran, not wanting to believe what had happened to to him.
It was at that point when Vona found the RHG. Having nowhere else to truly turn, he decided he would. "Surely I could make some money or earn something to pawn," he would constantly think to himself every waking moment of every day, wanting more than anything to undo his seal of Zodiac.
And that brings us here.

NOTES AND SHIET:
1. The scarf. I'll animate it pretty much all the time, but you won't have to if you don't like.
2. Yes, a kid with no arms has a scarf. If it ever falls off or comes loose, let's just assume he uses the power of wind to fix it.
3. I understand that the actual Zodiac is something else entirely to what I've made it seem. To be fair, the first idea for this character had him using the starsigns as 'weapons' or powers. I liked the concept of using Zodiac to describe that power, then I thought up this and simply kept the word. I'm lazy.
4. Check out that story! It kind of screams awful fanfic or something similar, but hey, he's a stickfigure with no arms who kicks other stickfigures - it doesn't have to be deep.
5. Vona is Icelandic for 'hope', apparently. Didn't know that when I named him, I just put letters together and it sounded nice.
6. I'll eventually update the demo as his character... I guess 'progresses' through RHG.
7. Back on the scarf, yes, I understand that they're overdone, but they do add a bit of character to an RHG.
8. Green eyes! This colour: #006633. I chose green because I seriously love green eyes... I don't even know why, I just do!
9. That quote at the top is a bit cheesy, but I like it. Sue me :3
10. Eventually, I'll want to join a clan, so if any leaders reading this liked the demo or whatever, send me a PM. Or not, I won't force you... That'd just be creepy.
11. In character, Vona would turn down help almost all the time (I say almost, like 95% of the time) whenever it was offered. He doesn't want to be looked down on because of his lack of arms. Even if it were something basic, like opening a door or pressing an elevator button, he'd turn it down and attempt - usually succeeding, too, the crafty one - to do it himself.
