Owner: Hachiro
Persona Appearance: Persona Background: Bellerophon like many Greek heroes story started out with an exile. He was exiled for killing his elder brother, but was later pardoned by Proetus king of Tiryns. After his pardoning the king's wife, Anteia, fell in love with him. However, Bellerophon did not return this love, thus the queen went to her husband with the charges that Bellerophon had ravished her. The king could not simply execute a guest, as it was against Greek customs, therefore he came up with a more subtle punishment. He sent Bellerophon on a quest he deemed unconquerable, the Greek hero was tasked with slaying the Chimera. On the quest to slay this beast Bellerophon tamed the winged horse known as the Pegasus, and believed that with this new steed he could slay the Chimera with ease. He soon learned that he could not harm the beast through normal means. However, he came up with a clever plan to slay the beast. The hero took advantage of the Pegasus's power of flight; he took a large block of lead and dropped it into the beasts mouth right as the creature was about to breath fire. The creature suffocated and died from asphyxiation. With the difficult quest completed, Bellperophon tried to meet the gods in Olympus because he had accomplished magnificent deeds. Zeus was angered by such a presumption and caused Bellerophon to fall to the earth, the once beloved hero fell into a thorn bush rendering him blind. Many years later the hero died as a lonely blind hermit.

Possessed Form Name: Hardships
Persona Name: Bellerophon
Possessed Form Appearance: - Image:
Description: With a roar of anger, Hachrio begins to transform into the beast in the image above. His muscles bulge as his skin start to darken to a shade of grey. As the grey skin consumes his neck, his head will begin to shift into the head of the creature. The sound of his bones restructuring and growing can be heard. Once his bones are in the proper shape and size they burst out from under his skin the form of a very thick bull skull. Horns will sprout from the skull, and he will grow to a height of nine feet tall. His bow is replaced by two five foot long cleavers with dry blood on them, this is meant as an intimidation tactic to strike fear in the hearts of Hachiro's enemies.
One would think that a creature this size would not be able to move that fast, and that would be their last mistake. Due to the augmented strength this form can cover ground quickly with long strides. This strength also allows Hachrio to swing his blades much faster and recover from missed swings just as quickly. Therefore a flurry of attacks is not impossible with this form, and by utilizing the strength granted in this form he is able to jump fairly long distance and smash his foes with the two cleavers. Speaking of which those blades are quite heavy and one has to be ready to take a hit, less they find themselves knocked to the ground from the blow.
Beware, your hardships have a physical form, and they're coming to confront you. Whether you want them to or not.
Human Skill Name: Hunter's Twin Shot
Persona Name: Bellerophon
Tier: Tier 1
Cost: 7%
Type of Damage: Pierce
Description: Due to his skill that he developed with a bow, Hachiro is able to loose two arrows in quick succession without affecting his precision. These arrows strike for half of his Ppstr as pierce damage. Thus if both hit then it will deal his Ppstr in total damage (as these attacks are only tier 1). In exchange for this lower damage they have a base 20% chance to critically strike their target.
