I suggested in the Story forum that he get his own thread, but nobody wanted to make one, so I did!

There ya go. So what's there under the black armour, a heartless bastard? A heart of gold? Or maybe just ... nothing? Discuss!

Hmm. A sentient tin-opener forever tortured by a tin it cannot open.

Noble knight, bound by oath and ruled by son of his true master.

Siron is probably my favourite character, in great part because of his mystery. He seems like a moderately benevolent force, doing what he must to follow the rules, but gently pushing things in the direction of the better whenever he can get away with it. His exact motives for ANY of his actions are always hidden behind the suit of armor.

He's probably my favourite character as well (am I allowed to have favourites?), at least out of those that aren't in the title and are still in the comic ;) I had some different ideas for him in the very early planning stages of the comic (spring 2003), which I'll probably reveal after the comic has ended.

I think his personality reflects his outward appearence. Unstoppable killing machine who likes gardening ;)

Siron definitely is very skilled in combat. Remember how he disarmed Roland without much effort and weapon. Ok, maybe Roland isn't the best swordsman, but it was still quite a feat.

And people know that Siron is good. I guess that's part of what makes him so intimidating. He can just show up, without weapon and people immediately recognize that he's a character that shouldn't be messed with (with notable exceptions of Roland and Tonio).

I'm going to throw it right out here. There is something under the armour, and it is a person.

that is what I have been wondering about, exactly who is under that armor?

ZOMG! It's Cecil, from Final Fantasy 4! It's gotta be!

So, if it's Cecil... will he eventually get a fruity paladin makeover?

That'd be a shame.

@ Shazbot: Interestingly, that brings up a point- is it at all possible that he's a dragon and not a person?

Anyway, my theory is that Siron may be Vincent's brother.

Racer X is really Speed's brother!? Ah haaaaw!?

I would list my reasoning, but I need sleep.
