Personality

Orridyon was one of vassals to the Macedon royal family, but appeared to be more loyal to Michalis than Minerva. Orridyon refused to yield when Marth sent a messenger in an attempt to avoid bloodshed. Even as he died, Orridyon claimed that Macedon would never yield to the League and his death was only a minor setback for the kingdom.
