"I will drown out the world with my melody of annihilation" - Shion Mochizuki

Shion Mochizuki, is a talented young hacker and the leader of the infamous Re:Quiem group. He is more commonly known under his alias of Nightmare, a nickname given to him by Lux City Server Admins, he wears the name with pride. He is seen as one of the main antagonists of Digimon Re:Quiem.

Appearance
Shion is a slender 25 year old man with long flowing grey hair with lavender undertones and one pure white bang in the middle of his head. He is very pale with piercing blue eyes that seem to glow. His usual attire is a long bordeaux colored trench coat with black accents atop a white high collared jacket, black jeans and black moccasin style shoes. He also wears two gloves one white, one black and sports piercings in his ears and lips. Finally all his outfits adorn the same pin that looks like a white skull.

His secondary attire is far more formal, consisting of a bordeaux suit jacket with black accents, he no longer wears his gloves and has a dress shirt on.

His final attire is his casual one, that he uses outside of the Digital World to not be recognized, it consists of a purple long sleeved kimono with a lilac hakama. In this attire he also wears his hair in a ponytail and sports a face mask when outside. To complete the look he wears geta sandals.

Personality
Shion has very different personalities when in the Digital World and with Re:Quiem and when acting as a normal civilian. In the former, he is shown as a cold, cruel and ruthless individual, who knows exactly how to make others do what he wants. He is also an expert strategist, able to form plans in the blink of an eye.

However when in the real world, he is a kind and caring person, showing true devotion to caring for his sister and helping those in his community. However he does still retain a certain darkness and cunning. However he also can revert to his Re:Quiem personality if needed or confronted.

In all circumstances he is softly spoken and has a fierce bond with his Digimon partners treating them as if they were family.

Before Re:Quiem
Shion was born just outside of Lux City in a poor suburb, at some point during his stay in hospital due to being premature, a digital virus managed to infiltrate his body, using his nervous system as its own computer. This lead to Shion's dark brown eyes to change to a bright glowing blue. As a child he was very quiet, but when he would cry it would cause electrical surges, much to the dismay of his parents. They decided to move to the countryside away from all technology.

At age 7, Shion was on a school trip to Lux City when he crossed paths with a cloaked man, who gave him a Digivice. It was on this very same trip that the Digivice activated while visiting the Opera House, creating an egg. When young Shion returned home, he kept his new device a secret and in the dead of night a small creature emerged from it. They became fast friends and each other's only companions until the day his sister was born (around 1 year later).

With the birth of Luna, Shion finally had someone to play with but she was a very sickly child, having to go back and forth to the hospital constantly, where Shion was forbidden from going. His parents were too afraid that he would cause an outage and hurt people. Eventually when Luna returned home, she required certain medical machines to stay healthy and so Shion was sent to a boarding school.

Birth of Nightmare
During his years at boarding school, the young man discovered a gift for hacking and that his friend, the newly digivolved Odemon, could infiltrate secure sites. Along with a group of four friends, the future Four Composers, he began hacking en masse, trying to gain more and more information on the origin of his partner. Eventually he found a door to the digital world again and the group began to explore, making allies along the way. Soon the quintet had become a fully fledged organization, seeking the secrets of the Digital World. This was the only place where Shion truly felt at home.

After his first year at boarding school, he had made enough money from his hacking prowess to move to his own apartment and take his sister with him. During his time away her health had gradually gotten worse and he knew that she couldn't stay in the countryside. In this new home, he created a room that would allow entry into the Digital World, from here he introduced his sister to this new world.

In the years that followed, the Re:Quiem group began to get a reputation for their skills and were slated by the press being called a nightmare for Lux City. After reading this comment Shion changed his avatar and display name to Nightmare.

The Virus
Affilicted since birth with a Digital Virus, this used to be seen as a weakness for Shion, but once having spent years exploring the Digital World, he discovered it could be used to rewrite Digimon programs and even the world itself. It soon became known as his Dark Gift and allowed Re:Quiem to create a base inside the network itself.

Odemon
A Music Digimon, it resembles a chameleon with a mask covering its face adorned with a musical note. It uses music based attacks and can camouflage itself. It usually stays on Shion's shoulder.

It cannot speak but rather communicates telepathically, its vocal chords being directed towards attacks. If able it will use its ability to camouflage to sneak up on an unaware target and rip their data to shreds with its large claws.

Odemon are said to be very rare and thought to be near extinct.
