Rion was the son of Queen Amalia and succeeded her on the throne of Celero.
Life[]
While Crown Prince he was famous as a womaniser and had a number of illegitimate children. Following his marriage to Fern Cascade, Fern made a point of locating many of his bastards and redistributing them; the most notable being Andus Fitzrion, who succeeded her father Opus Petrichor as ruler of AQUA.
He hosted the Second International Council in Propinlonge in 436, which was disrupted by Ridovo. He refused to leave the council chamber, but survived the explosion of the fireblossoms with a permanent loss of hearing. Over the following years he became increasingly concerned with securing marriages for his children, going so far as to forge letters from his son Fastion to eligible potential brides.
In 453 Rion was assassinated in his bed, the killer drawing a knife across his throat. His elder son Crown Prince Grant was killed in the same attack, leaving Fastion to act as regent. It was suspected Cree assassins were responsible.

- Crown Prince Grant, assassinated 453. Had one daughter, Vera Amalia, who succeeded as Queen.
- Sir Fastion, became regent for Vera Amalia.
