History
Iggy Lightjuno, Sage master and head of the Holy temple on Theebs. He was born during the summer months of Santo, the Ilumnia were a peaceful race dedicated to helping over civilizations grow in knowledge and technology. They were not however, with some of the fiercest warriors in the Universe. His people also possessed different brain chemistry; allow then to tap into the elements around them. His mother was a local baker and his father worked as a general salesman most of his life. Iggy’s childhood was far from normal though, when he was ten he found out that he had special abilities. These abilities were what the Old sages called “Sage powers” which made him isolated from most of the other children his age.
Upon reaching the age of maturity, Iggy was enrolled at the Sage temple at Theebs in which he spent most of his “natural” life learning different forms of fighting and diplomacy.
During this time, Iggy stumbled across an old manuscript in the ancient library.
Upon reading it, Iggy learned that there was more “realms” that existed and that buy gaining a high enough understanding of the spiritual world, one could leap from one realm to another.
Shortly after finding this out though war broke out and the Republic of Theebs was in danger of being overrun by the evil Hawk Empire.
As custom for all young men, Iggy was drafted into the army and fought along side other master Sages in hope of preserving the country he loved so much. 40 years had past
at the war’s end Iggy was made a full Sage Knight and was rewarded with the ceremonial “Soul Saber”.
After the world returned to normal Iggy traveled to the far away planet of shen-nokai.
There he devoted 200 years of self imposed isolation and meditation in hopes of gaining a higher oneness with God and his a better control over the powers he had placed on him.
After this isolation, Iggy returned a mature warm hearted man. He went to the finest mechanic on Theebs and asked him to build a custom star fighter to his specifications.
One of these features was the ability to warp to these other realms.
And so Iggy left his home planet, promising one day to return Iggy said goodbye to his loved ones and the headed out for the new worlds that lay ahead.
The first place his travels took him was the planet known as Bonta - prime; there he learned that what he had called “sage” powers all of his life was in fact what the locals called “magic”
Iggy investigated this magic further, as he had always been taught that magic itself was evil and that what he wielded was good.
For three centuries Iggy studied with the old Mages and did learn that many parts of their practices was in fact evil to him, some even involving sacrifices in order to work.
Leaving the planet and its primitive people behind, Iggy then spent many centuries wondering the realms gaining knowledge and learning different fighting techniques. Later Iggy warped to a small planet known as Ken-sho. The people there shared his views on how a man with a gift should use his powers for good and protection of the weak. He was welcomed with open arms.
He stayed three centuries on ken-sho, there the Sages of the temple of light taught him how to better control his power and use it for the benefit of the common good.
Later Iggy would construct his own “soul Saber”, the original one lost during a previous conflict on Bonta-prime.
Finally Iggy left the kind world that saw him as a protector to all, setting his sight towards the gleaming plant of an unknown name, Iggy found himself on what most of the inhabitants called the Final Fantasy Republic.
This has become Iggy’s primary home, establishing a temple on the surface of the world; it is now the main port of travel for most of his journeys off world.
The large open temple houses most of his equipment and a vast garden behind it, beyond that is a deep forest which is the barrier between the temple and the rest of the republic city.
Personality
Having lived almost 4,500 years, he has seen more than most men will ever see.
This has brought about a warm, caring nature to Iggy.
Seeing how man has almost destroyed himself in some cases, Iggy has learned that one should enjoy life to the fullest and savor every waking moment one has alive.
From his meditation he has learned never to judge another living soul, regardless of appearance, race or creed.
In battle, he is always calm, collective and patient. Waiting for the right moment to strike, Iggy always tries to disarm his opponent and then give them a chance to surrender.
Only doing physical harm when absolutely necessary, Iggy is one to never take a life unless they are about to take his.
Appearance
Standing approximately 6’1 and weighing around 230 pounds Iggy is not really as intimidating as one would think. His semi muscular shows in his arms and legs, but is obviously lacking in his mid section, giving him a Buda belly adds to Iggy’s soft nature.
In the summer months Iggy cuts his black hair short, but in the winter he lets it grow long. Wearing the traditional robes of his people; Iggy wears a long black robes that hangs just below the knee, a pair of black twill pants in which a wide black leather belt is attached to holding various equipment. On top of that Iggy wears a black sleeveless shirt with a pocket on the left side, and old worn cowboy hat.
On Iggy’s left arm is a bracer type device that links to his armor during battle in which he can control his suit’s function and abilities. On the left arm is a band that goes around his forearm, holding several throwing stars. Around his neck he wears a small wooden cross, a metal like chain and a small metal like box on a string.
Most of this however is hid under a longer like black cloak that he always wears on his travels. A large brown leather bag is always at Iggy’s side, holding his personal belongings and herbs. Iggy always carries medical herbs in case of an emergency; he also wears a pair of brown suede shoes.
Armour
Iggy’s Armour is of a Mandalorian design, which allows for unrestricted movement during battle.
The Dark green of the Armour is set off by the gold highlights around the chest and neck areas. The helmet houses high tech computer systems that can analyze the environment around it and allow the user to see in different fields of view, such as infrared, ultra violent, sonar and x-ray.
The entire suit is made out of an unknown metal that is flexible like cloth but is a hundred times strong that titanium.
When the suit is not in use, it dematerialized around Iggy and stores away in the pendent he wears around his neck.
Only be activated if Iggy is the one in possession of the pendent, this keeps it from being used by others who might try to steal the pendent.
Iggy also wears his cape over the suit as to not give it away from passer bys.
The suit it self covers all of Iggy’s body, the joints are covered and a dark grey substance that is just as tough as the Armour but is more flexible. Iggy is also protected from almost all elemental and Magical attack through the use of his suits Shield system. Known as the Lower Offensive Reflective Defensive System, or Lord for short; this allows Iggy to withstand heavy Attacks with minimal damage.
Weapons
Soul Saber: Iggy’s primary weapon always carries it on his left side for a quick draw during battle. The blade is made from a metal he found in the cave of Ran-shok during his travels. The blade was then forged using a secret technique and in the process the blade had a kurtosis weave embedded in it, making the blade almost indestructible. Having the ancient people of Pandora make the sword for him, Iggy truly cherishes it. The blade is approximately 25 inches long and is of a strait one sided design, a beautiful rosewood handle attaches the blade to the hilt of the sword by three gold studs going through the handle.
During battle however, the true nature of the saber is revealed. Taping into his own energy, Iggy can focus on the blade and in a burst of light the blade becomes solid energy with slight bluish aura around it.
The blade is ultra lightweight, able to be wielded with blinding speed and accuracy.
Iggy enjoys using the saber in battle.
Most of the time, opponents never see the actual blade of the weapon; just the cold feeling of it slicing through the abdomen as they are cut asunder.
A built in sharpener in the scabbard keep the blade razor sharp at all times and also prolong the blade it self. When the Energy blade is activated, the sword can cut through most any substance, including Elvin metal and dwarf steel.
Pistol: Made on the planet of Kamino, it is the only long range weapon Iggy possesses.
Deadly accurate to a range of 450 meters, Iggy enjoys hunting with this weapon. The twelve inch long barrel attaches the rest of the body making it long for a pistol, a silencer is also attached to bring the report and muzzle flash down to minimum.
It is of a revolver design that is stainless steel and is set off by various inlays around the receiver and barrel assembly.
On top of the pistol is a small scope of sorts that Iggy uses during long range attacks, coupled with efficient .700 nitro express caliber it is truly a devastating weapon.
Iggy carries this gun in a diagonal holster he wears on his back hip.
Also, when out of bullets Iggy can use his own spirit energy to shoot concentrated bolts of energy at his targets.
Dagger: The dagger was made for him by the dwarf people of mammon. Its 12 inch long blade is split down the middle and is seeing like on the side. The blade it self is made out of dwarf steel, which is incredibly strong and lightweight. Long flowing scroll work follows the blade from the tip of the blade to the hilt, and a short like spike protrudes from the end of the handle. The hilt is covered in woven snake skin, under that the metal becomes black and powdered.
The scabbard is made of black leather and attaches to Iggy’s belt on the right side; it has proven to be a deadly weapon in close combat.
Able to draw and block with the Dagger Iggy uses when in tight confines or when he is dueling an opponent is a tournament.
Throwing stars: The throwing stars are Iggy’s dirty weapon. Made by the Chozo people on talon IV the throwing stars have poison embedded in the steel they are made of, striking an opponent, the poison will slowly spread and then shut down the target’s nervous system. Sending them into paralyzed state and if not treated soon enough, ultimately Death.
Carrying 12 of these on his right arm, Iggy can throw up to 4 at a time, the throwing stars also posses the ability to lock on and follow its targets using the locking mode in Iggy’s helmet. The seeking ability is useful but opponents are able to avoid the stars by quickly ducking behind a solid structure.
Skills and abilities
The most noticeable ability has is his immortality, able to die only from disease and a severed head. Being an Ilumnia, Iggy’s has learned mastery over the elemental forces of nature, able to elemental attack of the highest magnitude; Iggy is a fierce opponent when he chooses not to use his weapons. Also, his “Sage” powers also allow him to use powerful defensive and offensive moves to aid him in battle.
Telekinesis: being able to lift enormous abject, Iggy uses this power to throw his opponents around like a rag doll. He is also able levitate him self, giving him the appearance of being able to fly.
Sage Embed: using this power, Iggy can shrink his opponent to 1/8th of their original size. Having fully mastered this form, Iggy can shrink any object to any size he chooses.
He often carries his starship in his pocket using this power.
Sage Heal: using this old technique, Iggy has the ability to quickly heal minor wounds and cuts. However when focusing for a short time, it can be used to heal fatal wounds and regrow lost limbs.
Elemental Attack: during the course of his life, Iggy has master the elemental Attack to the highest degree. Able to cast multiple attack of the same kind at once it makes for a powerful tactic.

Various attacks: Iggy also knows the following techniques.
Rip magic imprint, mind trick, poison, power infuse, high Jump, far see, holy and
Curga.
Religious beliefs
Baring the same name as his title, Iggy belongs to the Sage order.
Some have called this the “otherworld” Christianity sect, as they the exact beliefs as earthly Christians share.
The only noticeable difference is that the main scripture that they read and tech from, the book of divine light; being an exact copy of the Holy bible has five extra books in it.
These book were written by the Ancient prophets that tells of how when God made the earth and man, he strowed seeds of his creation into the nothingness of space. This is how the Ilumnia came to be according the Book.
Being a firm believer in his faith, Iggy always carries a bible with him in his bag.
A small wooden cross is also evident of his conviction; Iggy credits his unwavering belief in God to him gaining his immortality.
However, Iggy has also learned never to force anyone to believe in that which he holds as truth in existence. Never being a forceful person, Iggy only discusses his faith when it is brought up by another person.
Also, during his meditation Iggy sometimes talks with the “almighty” himself.
But no one knows of this, seeing as how many would label him as a lunatic for such claims. He has only told those closets to him of his connection with God.
However; to those willing to listen to his knowledge of his faith Iggy is always glad to share quotes from the bible and Give his personal advice on the situation at hand.
~THE END~
And now he continues his adventures, where it will take no one knows. but in the words of the Sage master himself,
”we’ll never know until we arrive at where we need to be”…………… |
