Arlon (アロン Aron) is a new character in Kid Icarus: Uprising. Also known as Arlon the Serene (静寂のアロン Seijaku no Aron), he is a lunar god that lives inside a giant mechanical moon called the Lunar Sanctum. As an ally of Viridi, he expresses great hostility towards the human race as well as Palutena's army. Arlon first appears during The Lunar Sanctum as the chapter's boss.
Characteristics
Appearance
He is a tall, lanky, elderly-looking god with violet skin and gray hair that ends in three points that face upward, and a mustache that is quite long. He wears very formal yet somewhat futuristic-looking attire that resembles a black suit with golden clasps and a golden broach below his neck. He also wears elaborate white gloves that release purple flames, fancy pointy shoes and a gold colored monocle on his left eye. His overall appearance makes him resemble a butler.
Personality
He is generally a very suave and intelligent gentlemen with a strong sense of honor for Viridi and the Forces of Nature. His honor goes as far as only allowing Viridi to negotiate all possible battle plans. However he does prefer non-violence, preferring that he and Pit just sit down for a chat instead than cause chaos on his sanctum. Despite this, Arlon is a very capable fighter and can hold his own in battle.
Abilities
He has a wide array of godly powers but primarily uses psychic abilities like levitation, blacking out his surrounding area, and using an arsenal of projectiles. He is also a skilled hand-to-hand combatant, having a wide array of physical attacks. He can produce an infinite source of energy from himself to fuel his gigantic Lunar Sanctum and he has omnipresent control over the entire structure's terrain, movement and weapons. He also created the Lunar Sanctum himself showing a great deal of mystical and technological prowess. Like the other gods, he can communicate telepathically with others.
Appearances
Kid Icarus: Uprising
Arlon appears in Chapter 13, where Pit heads towards his Lunar Sanctum to destroy it, as the Forces of Nature plan to use it to destroy the humans. Arlon quickly intercepts Pit and Palutena's conversation, letting them know that he will defend himself against them but wishes to handle this more civilly, however since Viridi is the only one allowed to handle negotiations within the Forces of Nature, Pit and Palutena have no choice but to break into the Lunar Sanctum and defeat Arlon who is fueling the Sanctum's power. After much struggle and verbal clashes between Arlon and the heroes, Pit finally makes it to his domain where the battle soon commences. Arlon proves to be a powerful fighter of great skill whose powers leave Pit blinded many times, but in the end Pit manages to overcome this and deal the finishing blow to Arlon, cutting off his power to the Lunar Sanctum, thus destroying the celestial base. However as the Lunar Sanctum breaks apart, something escapes from its interior. What became of Arlon afterwards is unknown.
He is later briefly mentioned by Viridi three years later, where she says that she does not blame Pit for Arlon's defeat as he was just trying to do what he had to.
