Description
Lio Fotia leads Mad Burnish, championing Burnish rights against persecution. His rise to command began with a vision: establishing a self-sufficient Burnish sanctuary. This strategic shift redirected the group from reactive violence to proactive protection, securing the steadfast loyalty of generals Gueira and Meis.
He possesses light green hair, a slender build, and striking magenta-pink eyes. Lio is often clad in a distinctive black leather suit featuring military straps, buckles, and a white jabot collar. When unleashing his pyrokinetic power, his Burnish form manifests as sleek jet-black armor with blade-like legs and a horned helmet.
Lio's personality marries a cool, tactical exterior with profound emotional vulnerability. He operates under a strict moral code, forbidding unnecessary casualties during attacks and ensuring civilian escape routes. Compassion fuels his actions, driving him to gather supplies for Burnish refugees; memorials depict him tenderly caring for children. Yet, devastating losses—like the death of Burnish woman Thyma despite his attempts at Burnish CPR (transferring flames mouth-to-mouth), and the sacrificial capture of Gueira and Meis—ignite vengeful fury. This culminates in his metamorphosis into a colossal flame dragon that wreaks havoc on Promepolis.
His pyrokinetic abilities manifest as advanced constructs, generating weapons like flame bows, arrows, and katanas, alongside vehicles such as motorcycles. He demonstrates tactical ingenuity in operations like the Foresight infiltration and the prison break. Exposure to the Promare—interdimensional flame entities causing Burnish mutations—grants Lio deeper resonance with their collective consciousness. This connection empowers him to reshape the Deus X Machina mecha into "Lio de Galon," augmenting it with pyrokinetic constructs like flame snakes and matoi weapons during battles against Kray Foresight.
Lio's relationship with Galo Thymos transforms from adversarial distrust—rooted in Galo's association with Kray—to deep collaboration after Galo acknowledges Burnish humanity. Their partnership peaks when Lio shields captive Galo from Kray's attacks, and Galo reciprocates by reviving the near-fatally drained Lio using Burnish CPR. Together, they unite Burnish worldwide to form the planet-sized "Galo de Lion," channeling teal flames to safely expel the Promare from Earth's core, resolving the Burnish condition.
Following the conflict, Lio confronts the imprisoned Kray, who labels his actions "uncalled for," before joining Galo in reconstruction efforts, symbolized by their fist bump.
