RING.
Stella Boss Ring - A star shaped stone kept in a golden ring, said to have come from a fallen star found by the first Stella Boss. He wears it on his right index finger. He inherited this from his father, the last Stella Boss.
Caesar Ring - A sun flame ring, which belonged to the Hellion family, that of Niccolo’s mother. Its special trait is its ability to gain and replenish dying will flames from its wearer, similar to a storage weapon box. It only takes up to 0.1 percent of the wearer’s power after a day’s absorbing energy, so it takes a long time to maximize to full power. However, at any time the wearer can activate it, transferring the flames stored in the ring into either a box weapon or back into the user and when stockpiled can easily revitalize the wearer when injured or drained of flames.
ANIMAL.
Phoenix - Named Dante, it is his box weapon, taking the primary form of a fiery bird, covered in and spouting out sky flames all around its body. It is extremely large, roughly the size of a human, and its eyes are ruby red. Its wing beats are able to shoot powerful flames, as does its mouth, its primary work to encircle the opponent in the sky flames. It has three forms.
Purgatorio: He uses his soft flames alongside his sun flames, giving Dante a brighter appearance and more shining than fiery. In this form, its primary purpose is not merely to harmonize, but to replenish. Just as its song can harmonize box animals, the combination of harmonizing and regeneration can cause it to revive and replenish the flames of allied box animals. This causes the effect of allied box animals being immune to sky’s harmonization due the mix of harmonizing and regenerating caused by Dante, so that while enemy box animals are harmonized, allied ones are not. However, as Dante does this, it cannot attack, relying on its allied box animals to fight while it continues to sing.
Paradiso: When fueled by sun flames, Dante’s appearance is entirely shining, as bright as a star in the sky and thus quite blinding. Its shine can replenish the energy of injured comrades or regenerate their wounds. Its sheer shining flame energy is capable of reviving even the near dead to full health. However, this takes a massive toll on both Dante and on Niccolo’s energy, and after being done once, Dante reverts to a chick form and can’t be used for the rest of the battle.[/ul]
WEAPONS.
Arco -A bow with arrows made up of sky flames. He is very precise with these fiery darts, able to shoot from 100 yards away, and the shots made are incredibly devastating. One shot can harmonize and therefore freeze a box animal, and can also be incredibly dangerous if it hits a dangerous mark. It’s mostly used for long range combat, and does little good in close range due to the time needed to aim the shot and the necessary pull to shoot the arrow. By channeling his sun flames into the arrows, it can heal instead of harm.
Scipio -A spear, which he uses by activating with his sky flames, and which is roughly his size, with a sharpened edge. He expertly spins, cuts, parries, and slashes with this weapon, sending out waves of flame from it, and also using it for close range combat. His ultimate technique with it, Pandaemonium, pours a huge amount of flames into an orb by focusing on the tip of the spear, and then by maneuvering the spear, launching said orb of flames directly at the opponent. While slow, it is devastating if it does manage to hit, and it can’t be easily blocked or defended against.
Aegis - A breastplate that covers his front body, protecting him from attacks to his chest area, while also having other traits. It’s able to combine with Dante, infusing and pooling their energies to both give Niccolo wings and to grant him huge reserves of healing power, being able to use his sun flames to regenerate practically from death. The fusion also giving him a crown, two greaves on each leg, and two gauntlets on each hand. On the breastplate’s front as well as on each piece of armor, is the symbol of a sun with a star inside it. Its ultimate attack is Supernova, where from each symbol a light shoots to another, forming a pentagram before firing a huge torrent of flames directly towards the opponent.[/blockquote][/blockquote]

ABILITIES. Despite his charming and unassuming appearance, he’s exceptionally skilled in hand-to hand combat, having mixed in multiple martial arts with years of hard training and a desperate fight to survive. He’s quite capable in a fist fight to deal with most opponents on the same level as him. However, his true strength is as a fencer. He constantly keeps around him a cane sword, with the grip having an elaborate eagle placed on it. He can easily draw the blade out as quick as lightning, and strike out of nowhere. His skills are more based on flair and quickness rather than power, making quick strokes and more often avoiding another’s attack rather than parrying it.
FULL PERSONALITY.
Charismatic -He’s exceptionally charming and eloquent, and can easily compel people to his side. It is not the kind of charisma a politician or negotiator has, but one of a military or revolutionary leader. He can stir up and rise a crowd into action when need be, and motivate his forces to fight even harder than they thought they could. He is able to use words as effectively as he can any weapon he possesses.
Leadership - He is an excellent leader, in that he fully understands what leadership means, and how to be an effective one. He is able to command respect, and give orders bearing the full weight of them, and is easily able to work other people’s skills in an effective manner. He is able to keep a cool head and a calm face, and be able to control forces efficiently and effectively. He always shows dedication to his responsibilities, and makes sure every member is happy, up to the task, and prepared for whatever their mission is. His decisions carry the fortune of his family, and he is able to feel the importance of this while not hesitating, and constantly reflecting on his decisions and choices to see how he can be better.
Pleasant personality - Even when he isn’t trying to be incredibly charming, he can still attract people due to his pleasant and upbeat personality, which he has most of the time. He is often seen smiling, making jokes, and enjoying life and entertainment with his friends. His joviality is partially his own personality, partially a cover for the sake of his men and for others. For his allies, its meant to be encouraging and to help lighten the mood of their mission, for enemies, its to lull them into a false sense of security before he crushes them all.
Loyalty - Despite his seemingly overwhelming ego, he truly does care chiefly for the sake and well being of his guardians. He knows that they’ve been through horrible things, things other people can only dream of, and he is both wounded by their pain and pleased that now they are free from that path thanks to the Stella family. However, for him, it’s not enough. He and his guardians deserve to rule over the Mafia world that had wronged them, and stand at the top in glory, since they deserve it more due to what happened to them. This is the deepest reason for why he fights so hard against Vongola. His desire to take care of and aid his guardians is seen in much of his fighting tactics, a good portion of them made to heal both his guardians and their box weapon/animals.
Intelligence - Just as he’s a good leader and a capable rhetorician, he is also an incredibly intelligent person, making 4.0 in grades at Namimori alongside his rival the 12th Vongola. He not only knows a vast variety of subjects, but is incredibly gifted in each of them. His specialty is in researching great military leaders of the past, and politics, alongside military warfare. He can come up with plans quickly, and also can make a witty pun or joke at the drop of a hat. He can easily impress others with his vast depth of intelligence and the eloquence of his words.
Manipulation - With his charisma and his intelligence, he also has another way of getting others to do what he wants, manipulation. As all sky flame users, he has insight, his mainly focused on seeing people’s weaknesses, insecurities, and fears. He studies those around them and by intuition, guesswork, and some reliable information can figure out not only a person’s buttons, but also how and when to use them as he wishes. He may use this to either psyche out his opponent, coerce them to his side, or other ways make them incredibly vulnerable. Of all his abilities, this is by far his most fearsome.
Hate - One of his most defining traits is his undying hatred for the Mafia World and for the vongola family as a whole. He hates how brutal the Mafia world is, that so many are tortured and brutalized, and that despite his seemingly peaceful nature the Tenth Vongola has done nothing to stop it. The Vongola stand at the top of the Mafia world, so if there’s a problem with it, the Vongola are responsible due to their influence and their either lack of efficiency in solving it or their apathy at this suffering. He also hates Vongola due to the fact that the Tenth was the one who prevented his mother, an assassin, from killing her target and getting captured, wich directly led not only to his mother’s imprisonment, but his own birth and upbringing in the walls of the Vindicare prison.
Pride - Among his many good traits and amazing abilities, he had grown an exceptional ego, and a belief that he will be the one to bring down Vongola and that it is his destiny to do so. His impressive sky flame abilities combined with his strong sun flame ones give him the feeling that he is invincible and immortal, along with his team. He sees himself and his group as a phoenix, which, despite all attempts to destroy it can be reborn in flames and rise into the sky. He believes he is the shining star of the Mafia world, and that by his power, along with his subordinates, the world will be remade anew, without the evils that were subjected on him and his friends. Even more so, he believes without question that not only will Stella win, that the ought to win, since they deserve it after all they’ve been through.
Ruthlessness - Behind his smile and his charm, Niccolo is a mind that is focused on his task and his dreams. In order to achieve those dreams, he will go to whatever means, no matter how cutthroat or possibly dishonest. He will lie, he will steal, he will sow seeds of discord and calamity. He will blackmail, threaten people’s families, intimidate, and do what he can to get what he wants. He goes by the old statement that “All is fair in love and war” and thus sees all means as acceptable if it leads to his overall goal to destroy Vongola and bring his family to the top of the Mafia world. For him, there is no mercy, no rules, and no safety for those who are allied to his enemies. He is determined to viciously destroy Vongola, to watch as everything they love is crushed before they themselves die, and to have the Tenth watch as the Twelfth, broken and crushed, lies dead in his hands.
Doubt - Even with all his genius, his power, and his pride, he cannot shake his doubts in his actions. In his deepest heart of hearts, he questions himself. Is he doing the right thing? Is he doing what’s best for his guardians? Is he only sowing more ruin for his friends by leading them into this fight with Vongola? How much suffering may his comrades go through because of the choices he has made? It is these doubts that nag at him, though his conviction and his pride continue to smash them down. While so far these doubts are small, over time, and with more of his comrades either hurt or in danger, they will continue to gnaw at him,
BRIEF HISTORY. His father was the previous Stella Solare Boss, his mother a hitman, a sun flame user from the Helios family, one well known for their strong sun flame users. They were both madly in love, and were planning to marry as soon as she returned from her last mission. Said mission was to assassinate a certain boss, who just happened to be an ally to the Vongola. However, her attempt was stopped by the Tenth Vongola boss, Tsunayoshi Sawada. After her defeat, she was delivered to the Vindice, and she was put in the Vindicare prison. However, she was not alone, she was with child, which no one knew, not even her. So, the lovers were split up, and Niccolo was born in the depths of the Mafia’s prison.
The first memory Niccolo could remember was of the dark dingy caverns around him, the walls, the chains, the cell doors, the darkness. It gave him a sense of helplessness, of absolute weakness. His mother was able to take care of him, while in the midst of the prison. However, he was still, while in there, exposed to all of the Mafia’s world’s darkest beings, there most vile monsters chained up. He witnessed every horrible thing another human being could do to another, no matter how much his mother tried to shield him. Rape, murder, interrogation, execution, everything laid in front of him since before he could walk. One of his only comforts was his mother, who planned constantly for their escape together. His second was Mukuro Rokudo.
Within the walls of the prison, the infamous prisoner Mukuro’s power still allowed him to communicate with the outside world. One of these people was Niccolo, who Mukuro was in contact with on a nearly constant basis. Mukuro told him about all the horrible things done in the Mafia world, of Vongola, and about his own claims to power. He even gave Niccolo some lessons in the ways of strategy, ruthlessness, cunning and treachery; things Niccolo took to heart. He bonded to Mukuro, and saw him as his first friend, even if later on he felt Mukuro could have just been using him for his own needs.
By the age of six, he had grown in the prison to be a cold, and dark person, being warm only to his mother and Mukuro. By that time, his mother helped hatch their escape. It went well, for a while, but eventually it began to fall through. Only Niccolo was able to escape, his mother giving him her ring before he escaped. He ran and ran as far as he could to get away.
His mother had drilled into him what he should do next. He went and made contact with the Stella Solare family. He was able to prove by his mother’s ring that he was who he said he was, and his father accepted him graciously and with much tears of joy. He was a son who came from nowhere, a phantom prince returning to his throne. Even then, he knew what his plans were. He’d destroy the Mafia world, and the Vongola family.
Over the next ten years, he spent his time traveling the world, learning at different schools of both scholarly and martial arts, improving his skills for the time he would strike. He would not attack so long as the Tenth was in power, due to his incredible fear of the Tenth. However once the Twelfth boss was selected, he knew it was time he made his move. He moved to Japan, to Namimori, alongside his rival and enemy. From there, he’d meet his guardians, and begin to plan the ruin of Vongola.
