Trivia

• Lyon first appeared in the game as an unnamed adventurer in Volund's initial "Still Image". This is also alluded to in RA-18 "Labyrinth of Loneliness" when Chabeau notices a particular mark on Lyon's body.
• Lyon is an outstanding Vanguard unit, with respectable initial stats and 2-block to provide early game defense. More importantly however, once his Nature and Skill activate he becomes a 3-block powerhouse unit with multi-target ground attacks covering 3 tiles in front of him. He therefore avoids suffering the typical issue with Vanguards in that their contribution diminishes in the late game when power is needed over cost generation.
