Bio:
The second in command to the infamous House of Exile; Rilix has been known to be one of the stalwart leaders of the Fallen but able to snap like a whip with her unbridled rage. Like many of the females within their species, she has uncontrollable aggression that can quickly turn to violence if not properly controlled. Luckily, she was able to be trained under Frigoris to harness her rage and convert it to make her a battle hungry and fearless beast within the grips of battle. Famous for leading numerous successful raids into the Hive-controlled Hellmouth, Rilix has always brought her teams back without casualty and drenched in the Hive's remains.
Despite her very aggressive nature, she is completely docile when in the presence of Gabriel and shows to be unnaturally overprotective of him in certain cases. (See attached file E-38) She considers Guardian Theresa, known to her simply as the loud Warlock, as her rival for affection but seems to hold no qualm with Guardian Avora due to her cleverly diplomatic nature.
Afterword from Rilix:
"I am so sorry." Gabriel apologised in a meek voice as Rilix had all four arms crossed, her expression showing both her disappointment and frustration. "I thought I could do it alone… Look how that turned out…"
"You need more work before you can handle such an abomination." Rilix reprimanded as Gabe nodded, his head declined in shame. There were many foes in the Galaxy that Gabriel was more than ready to face alone but he had set his eyes on a Vex Gate Lord; that was an enemy he definitely could not challenge alone and succeed. Barely avoiding being flung through time, Gabriel was saved by Rilix and Fireteam Zulu. Sadly, the Gate Lord had dematerialised back into its own time stream and now they had no more leads to the Black Garden. Well, no more after Red-16 refused to tell them anymore of his own experiences and knowledge.
"Why?" Was the million Glimmer question that she had and she wanted it answered immediately.
"I've been hiding behind everyone since I became a Guardian and I wanted to prove that I could do something." His fists clenched in frustration. "I want to prove myself to everyone here that, despite when I was born, Earth was still my home and I will always defend it." He declared weakly, the stains of tears creasing his skin. "I don't want to be someone who always needs the help of others..."
Silence fell upon the two, both unsure of how to proceed. At first she was filled with rage towards his brash and reckless actions but she felt she couldn't fault him. She was the same once. Wanting to prove herself. Wanting to show the strength and willing to do anything it took to accomplish that feat.
It was no wonder she decided to accept his courtship. He didn't have the physical strength or stature most females were drawn to but he had his own strength. A strength of character, of integrity, of independence; he had the desire to show it. Still it was also one of his biggest flaws. That and his depressingly low confidence. It only reinforced her theory that she needed to do more for him. Not right now, though. Right now, he deserved some praise for actually surviving something that even an experienced warrior-such as herself-would have been able to defeat alone. His Vex kill count was about to skyrocket when the reports of his recent activities came in.
Moving towards Gabriel, she uncrossed her many arms and took his own in her lower set; her upper arms went to caress his face, her strong touch becoming very delicate. Carefully, she lowered her face plate to align with his face and gazed directly into his eyes. "You will have many other chances to prove it but now is not the time. You have time in the future to prove yourself but for now, focusing on your confidence should be your goal." She explained evenly as Gabriel gave a soft sigh.
"I know." he said simply before Rilix gently laid him upon his bed and removed her armour, leaving only the mesh that covered her body. After making sure she was comfortable, she climbed in beside him and settled into her own spot. Her now exposed face next to his with only the traditional Fallen rebreather covering her mouth.
They were silent for a moment, both trying to relax in each other's company. "Has anyone tried to visit me?" He asked, his brow knitted in concern. "Eddie? Theresa? Avora? Red? Alex? Anyone?"
"The Human you call Eddie… He came along with a Titan Pale-Skin… I believe that he was named Alex…" She explained, her eyes gazing away from Locker as she continued. "The monster was here to… I still do not understand your trust for him…"
Gabriel blinked. "The… The 'Monster'?" He asked curiously, his clear confusion shown upon his face. The monster… The monster… Ah, they were talking about Cyrus. Of course. That was a title he was commonly associated with nowadays; not just by the Fallen. "You mean Cyrus… I will have to see him soon…"
"Sleep first, you will need the rest while you still can..." She murmured as she urged Gabriel to sleep. The Guardian did just that and followed her into a sweet slumber soon after.
Thoughts were passing through his mind as he was struggling with succumbing to slumber, halting any intent to rest. The title his friend possessed bothered him. It seemed cruel to call him such, especially in light of all he had been through. However, many Guardians he had met all had their titles. All of them so different and none of them truly benevolent or malevolent... And maybe it was the same for him…
Alexander was the Hero…
Eddie was the Veteran…
Avora was the Observer…
Rilix was the Outsider…
Theresa was the Unstable…
Cyrus… Cyrus was the Monster…
And Gabriel… He was the Soldier…
He liked the way that sounded…
