Short Description: A lilac haired man with light skin and green eyes.
Acting: Surprisingly, Tris has spent a fair amount of time as a movie actor. Starting with a role where he secretly played himself (being a shapeshifter made the anonymity possible, combined with having the pull over a movie about yourself to insist that a relatively inexperienced actor play yourself to give yourself the possiblity of getting the role), he has taken to acting on and off throughout his life, usually taking a stage name or anoyher for each stint he takes into acting.
Powers/Spells: Tris, like all members of the Darkflower family from his mother on down, is a natural shapeshifter. This also keeps him from aging. He is able to take any humanoid form, though any extra limbs beyond a tail(which his natural form has: he is not human) would make it very clear that he isn't used to using those limbs. For example, if he were to make wings, he would be unable to actually use them to fly, and an extra arm would have very poor dexterity. He is capable of reducing his size to roughly a small housecat, but would be unable to grow beyond about 8 feet tall. As this is effectively natural magic, this even effects his mass.

Tris de Cron, a son of the mercenary Zelath Darkflower and famed general Tres de Cron, grew up hearing tales of the heroics of his parents. Almost never from his parents, mind you, but the stories did come to him. Learning of their work in the famed Alpha Squadron of elite fighter pilots(especially his father), Tris quickly gravitated towards the field himself. By the time of the Battle of Diamondia, he had just been able to join up with this elite squadron himself! Shortly after, he attempted to lead the group, but quickly found that command of this sort was not what he excelled at, and he stepped down as squadron leader. In this period he also received Kei as an inheritance from the Dek pilot Key Seven Red, another member of Alpha Squadron, when the insectoid pilot passed away.
While he later found better success as head of a squadron of less skilled pilots, he soon found himself offering his services when he saw a just cause and a need for fighter pilots. It was in this role that he helped lead a small group of Earth merchant vessels wipe out a significantly larger force of pirate vessels, solidifying his reputation in the galaxy as a whole. It was this that later was turned into a movie that he helped make from a behind the scenes perspective as a consultant... and secretly as well as the lead actor, using his shapeshifting abilities. While another Sidran actor played the role when the character was intended to be in that form, it was the more heavily utilized human actor that was, in fact, Tris himself. This movie did very well at the box office, leading him to even more fame, and his fate in the public eye was sealed, even if he wasn't fond of being recognized wherever he went. Thankfully, as a shapeshifter, it was very easy for him to be left unnoticed.
Tris has since gone on to star in several more movies, but has taken part in even more battles in space, the thrill of the battle always calling to him.
