occupation
worker at the
nine and twelve
• the middle child out of three, often overlooked by his parents in favor of the older and younger
• quickly learned how to lie to keep himself from getting in trouble
• did his best to separate himself from his family, and led the most average schoolkid life of the three (mostly)
worked at a big box pet store while still under his parents' roof until he got fired for refusing to sell animals to kalons who clearly should not own animals
• left his parents' home with little fuss and did his best to ignore their scant calls in college
• moved to ilodia in search of his sister, and got a job there
• employed at the nine and twelve, a convenience store-attached-to-gas-station chain (named after the founder's kids, who were nine and twelve at the time)
• has never actually seen any other management for his store, but occasionally gets letters from the higher-ups
• lives above the store with his pet leopard gecko, morpheus
• morpheus eats spirits, which is handy considering that orion's store is overrun with them
• orion, however, doesn't realize they're spirits bc he thinks they're just another of his delusions
• "morpheus, spit that out, that's a valued customer. sorry, ma'am-, sir-, entity"
• spirits frequent the store because they don't get bothered there
• restores old computers upstairs when the store's dead
• perpetually sleep deprived
• the most laid back kalon you've ever seen
• doesn't get out much bc of the store, but enjoys exploring
• lies to keep himself out of trouble
• tends to bite off more than he can chew
• doubts his decisions constantly
