Information

Quiet, expectant, and guarded; Rhyncomon confines himself very much to the shadows and very rarely gets involved with others. This suits him very much, as he has made a name for himself as a collector of useful items, and more importantly, useful connections. Relying on his contractors to gather resources and information, he prefers to stay back and observe the situation. After all, the one with the greatest advantage in any game is the one who can see the moves of every other player.

That's not to say he won't make moves of his own; he is a very useful Digimon to know and is able to 'get things' with ease, so makes himself a very attractive ally for those with more direct plans. That said, he prides himself on his general neutrality and acts entirely on his own morals; he refuses to serve a cause outside of his own interests, and he makes that very clear to everybody he comes across. He may work alongside you, but a contract with him is only valid for the length of time you can be useful.

He can make himself an intimidating presence or a close confidant at the snap of a finger, and prefers the power of persuasion to gets what he wants. He is equally likely to offer kind incentive or implicit threat to that regard, and as such can pull many a weaker Digimon to his beck and call. But make no mistake; while he avoids getting his hands dirty if he can help it, if those hands are tied then he is a truly formidable opponent.

Attacks

• Iron Eclipse - Rhyncomon swings his sword with such intense speed that it cuts the very air, the air pressure parting everything it comes across, and raising a devastating shockwave through the surrounding air with its very movement.
• Obsidian Mist - Rhyncomon throws a ray of black light from beneath his robe, blinding his opponents with a black haze the instant it hits them. He then uses their blindness as cover to unleash lethal sword strikes.
