Lyon is your first party member and a near-constant companion on your
quest. Her combat stats are generally above average and she can learn
a wide variety of skills up to the S Rank. However, she shares the hero's
physical frailty, and should be given the best armor available. She also
suffers somewhat from a tack of rune slots—she doesn t get her second
slot until level 45,
Lyon has good synergy with the hero, protecting him if he s
tow on health, entering the Fury status if he's killed, and sharing a useful
Coop Attack that does additional damage with no drawback, in military
battles she usually serves as the hero's second-in-command, adding two
uses of the Charge ability to his infantry or combat ship unit.
