Cherion
CharacterCherion is a C-Class Hero Association member who moonlights as a singer in the boy band Soda Pop Boys. Ambition drives him more than heroism, and his open feud with Sweet Mask colors his early scenes before he and his bandmates defect to the Neo Heroes.
Appearance
Cherion is a youthful man topped with light hair, dressed in a pale checkered suit worn over a white shirt and a matching tie.
Personality
Raw ambition fuels Cherion. He signed with the Hero Association purely to chase fame and to unseat Sweet Mask, and he carries enough arrogance to openly pick a fight with the higher-ranked A-Class star.
History
Two years of training paid off when Cherion and a fellow member cleared the hero exam and were slotted into C-Class. His group is presented to Sweet Mask by their manager, but the A-Class idol brushes them off as an ugly knockoff, which stings Cherion into vowing that he will surpass Sweet Mask and challenging him on the spot, though a sudden chill runs through him at the sight of the weal-like mark on Sweet Mask's neck.
Later the Soda Pop Boys ride to the aid of Great Philosopher, pulling him clear of a pack of monsters, and reveal that they have signed on with the Neo Heroes, rebranding as the Neo Soda Pop Boys. As a low-ranked hero Cherion is not much of a fighter on his own, leaning on plain hand-to-hand combat, but once he joins the Neo Heroes his partner Fantas outfits him with a Battle Suit that sharply lifts his combat power.
