So I remembered that Awakening introduced the Griffon Rider. A class that acted as a potential promotion for the Wyvern Riders. Problem is: They never expanded on it. It had potential, man. Like, it could easily have been branched away from the Wyvern Rider and made a line all on its own. Did that ever happen? No. So this is where I went and took justice.

Now this is merely what-if, but when have I ever backed down from a cool sounding idea, right?

Biography: Eurybia is one of the many 1/2 mermaids born to Junichiro and Palutena, being born the day after Elpida. As with her many other siblings, she was always in attendance when her father Juni came back home and had stories to tell. As she listened to Juni’s stories, she, along with her hybrid sisters, became inspired to one day fight alongside their dad. When told another story one day, she saw Eupraxia pick up a lance, which prompted Eurybia to take up an axe and a stormhammer brought home from another trip one day. Nonetheless, Eurybia trained how to use both, getting the hang of axe & hammer easily within 4 days. After one training session however, she and Eupraxia spotted a heavily injured Griffon that escaped an abusive owner. Unwilling to let such a magnicifent beast suffer more, Eurybia took it home, reported the incident to her father, and the Griffon was adopted as Eurybia's mount, and its previous owner locked up as a result. Eurybia soon named the Griffon Sky'ree, after another famous gryphon. She eventually joined her sister Eupraxia and others (sans Eurydice at first) on the continent of Gaia to enlist in the newly assembled Gaia Army that was co-formed by Juni and his 2 immortal wives. Eurybia and Eupraxia co-lead a unit consisting of Wyvern and Griffon Riders, but during the siege of Gaia Castle, instigated by the Supreme Forces and personally commanded by the Supreme Archduke, their unit was among those wiped out while Eurybia and Eupraxia were fortunate to live another day along their father, stepmothers, and sisters present. Among the formation of the Gaia Alliance, Eurybia pledged her support alongside Eupraxia and her other sisters to take on the enemy, free Gaia, and overall defend those in need whenever possible. Eurybia is just as sisterly and kind as her twin sister, and like the rest of her family. She however, is also just as big a tease, but is known to be quite fierce when she gets riled up. She likes a good sink in quicksand like a good number of her siblings. In contrast to Eupraxia, who adores wyverns, Eurybia likes the griffons a bit more. She also has a bold stance against sexual harassment and will not hesitate to tell off anyone who engages in it, but won't stop when asked to. The one who enjoys listening to thunder the most.

Abilities: Being 1/2 mermaid, Eurybia takes on her mermaid form whenever she enters the water. In the water, she enjoys an increase of avoid/dodge, and her movement doubles, too. However, to properly enjoy these bonuses, she will have to dismount first. As a Griffon Rider, Eurybia wields axes as her weapons and enjoys a good deal of balanced stats and has good growths in her magic, and resistance while always looking for ways to help boost her strength & defense to be equally on par. One might think Eurybia's pre-promoted, but her line of Griffon Rider is actually a tier-1 type, meaning she can class change into a higher ranking class. Her line has access to a more defense & resistance orientated Griffon Knight which grants lance usage, or the Griffon Warrior, which is more offensive orientated and grants the usage of swords. As a tradeoff: She cannot learn the Lancebreaker skill unless she were to become a Griffon Warrior. She starts off with the following weapons and skills.

Storm Hammer: Eurybia's personal weapon. A thunder magic infused throwable hammer that has a good chance to score critical hits. Like all hammers, it deals effective damage to armored units. It has infinite uses.

Iron Axe: A standard axe made of iron - simple but effective. Has 40 uses.

Halberd: An axe effect against calvary. Has 18 uses.

Tailwind: Eurybia's personal skill. When she engages combat and defeats an enemy, she, along with others in a 4-square radius, gain a +4 boost to speed and skill for 3 turns. All units affected are also able to flawlessly initiate double attacks during this time, too.

Deliverer: Grants +2 to movement when paired with another unit.

Canto: Allows a unit that has not moved its full movement range to move the remaining amount at the end of its turn. Does not activate after attacking or using a staff.
