Forum:AJ, the Relentless

"Oh it is fitting that not all of my kin are gone, there are some still out there, even one that is now, one of yours..."

- Riven

AJ, the Relentless is a Guardian that works with The Last City and is allies with the Fallen House of Lions. Originally he was an Ahamkara that would be resurrected into a Guardian through transcending death to grant the wish of a unconnected Ghost who wanted to find her Guardian. AJ is also known for the Exotic Hand Cannon, Firebringer.

Story of Boundless Stars
"This wish was a glorious one for the wish-maker, giving him the power that he wanted, and he pierced his way against the veil above the Stars..."

- Cloak of Boundless Stars

Hunting the Dimensional Mind
"The Dimensional Mind is mine to face alone."

- AJ, declaring his hunt for Menkrodos

Search for his Lost Identity
"I remembered that day where AJ asked for me to go hide in a safe place while he goes over to the Dreaming City, believed it could give answers to his past. He goes into the place of where that Dead Dragon was. Comes back and I asked him: "Well...?". And he then goes to say this: "My eyes are clear now...I have founded out on what I was..." And this is the part that scared me a little: "O friend mine...""

- Cinnamon

Personality and Traits
"Yes yes, you might think me as some trickster, desire-hungry bastard but I’m not like that…well mostly to around you people of course."

- AJ

Much like all Ahamkaras, AJ is born as deceiving and self-interested, but he has been able to control his hunger for his desires, rather utilizing them against his foes in combat. Instead he is much more of a kinder but quiet spirit, keeping to himself from others except those he believes that could be trusted, mostly his Ghost Cinnamon and Joskaa. Being more upbeat and humorous to those he trusts or cares.

Due to his ability as an Ahamkara, he is able to shapeshift to his desire, usually in the form of a Guardian, with the voice of either an Exo or a Human, never taking off his helmet even outside of battles. However, it has been mentioned at rare times he has changed to a form similar to that of Riven, with the addition of wings and having tiger paws.
