Reyus

Reyus (レウス, Reus) is the son of Doyle who was kidnapped by Zauber's men and used as a bartering chip to ensure the former general's cooperation. Like Gradd and Celia, he is also a Strega but has not been able to awaken his powers. With the exception of Story Mode, he is a playable character in other modes.

Role in Game
While being held captive in Zauber's prison, Reyus learns of his father's current situation from Fahlma as the latter willingly shares his origins and beliefs with the young boy. He is then put into a trance by the older Strega and has his powers unlocked. In this state, he is sent to meet with his father and mercilessly attacks him.

Doyle refuses to fight back against his son and struggles through the bombardment to hug him. Their family love makes Reyus sane once more, but Doyle's wounds prove to be mortal much to his son's self-horror and remorse. Doyle's final wish was for Gradd to take care of Reyus for him which the latter agrees to.

Personality
Reyus is a timid and gentle lad who has never harmed a living being in his whole life. He inherited the Strega bloodline from his mother who he also shares a resemblance with according to Doyle. Like any normal boy, Reyus loves his father dearly and is horrified at himself for severely hurting him.

Fighting Style
Despite his lack of experience as a Strega, Reyus has the power to conjure the element of water and use it to harm or incapacitate opponents. His set of long-range attacks are somewhat similar to that of his father Doyle even though their stats are almost an inverse to one another. Whereas Doyle's fighting style focuses more on unfocused strength and damage output, Reyus is much better suited for situations requiring speed and dexterity. Like Anjie, his small frame helps him avoid certain spells from a distance but his melee attacks are mediocre at best. His speed-based spells are more efficient when used in mid-air, giving him an advantage over most characters due to his good homing traits.
