Pan

Ryan Lennon aka Pan is a character that appears in the HydroVerse series of comics and was created by DeviantArt user ryguy217, he made his debut in the titular comic titled Pan. Ryan Lennon comes off as a very charitable, kind-hearted young man with a smart mouth at times.

In his small neighbourhood which sits outside Empire City, Ryan manages to set time aside for numerous activities such as school, martial arts, and volunteer work at a local shelter.

Appearance
Ryan Lennon is a Caucasian male, with messy brown hair and blue eyes. Whilst wearing his martial arts gear, he wears matching black clothing. (shirt, pants, etc.)

The earliest rendition of his "hero suit" was purely accidental, as it consisted of his spruce green winter coat and jeans alongside a black face mask with protective goggles.

Eventually, Ryan decided to upgrade his suit to a more tactical design. The new "hero suit" has numerous tactical belts for item storage, a walkie-talkie attached to his back to aid him in picking up police frequencies, a pair of Corpus Omega prototype eye pieces, and a skater helmet his father gave him.

Early Life
Born in Empire City, Ryan Lennon was raised by his overprotective mother Mary alongside his sister Sophie. Growing up, Ryan rarely saw his father Roger who worked at Corpus Omega and was an incredibly busy man.

One snowy day during a walk in Empire City, Ryan witnessed a mugging down an alleyway. He explained to his mother that he needed to help, but Mary told the young Ryan that he must not get involved with crimes and put himself in harm's way.

Eventually, Ryan met and befriended a tomboy named Iris Conners, but their friendship dwindled as Iris went on to focus on her endeavours into science which lead to her joining Corpus Omega as an intern working in the R&D sectors.

The Staff
After experiencing a flashback of witnessing a mugging and not intervening due to his mother's wishes, Ryan asks his martial arts teacher who explains to Ryan that people should be protected from danger. Because Ryan has proven himself to be an honourable student, the teacher gives Ryan a retractable bō staff to use when danger occurs.

Upon returning home, Ryan is greeted by his sister Sophie who brings him a cup of tea and has noticed Ryan's boredom lately. Sophie reveals to Ryan that because she works at Corpus Omega, she was able to plan for Ryan's school to take a field trip to a tour of her workplace which excites her brother.

Two Friends
During the tour at Corpus Omega, Ryan spots his father's office and breaks away from his school group to investigate. Upon entering his father's office, Ryan comments on the darkness and also notices some electric eels. However, he is startled by Iris who shames him for snooping around.

Iris then realises that it's Ryan, and the two catch up after years of not being in contact. Much to Ryan's horror, Iris reveals that she has a blood disease called Polycythaemia vera. Eventually, Iris decides to escort the shocked Ryan out of the office and back to his class.

Be A Hero
Whilst walking to the shelter where he volunteers at, Ryan came across a two men yelling abuse at an older gentleman and this caused Ryan to finally break away from his mother's rules. Pulling out the bō staff given to him earlier, Ryan approached the two men and challenged them.

Within moments, Ryan had successfully taken down both men but was then struck at the back of his head unknowingly which left him floored as the two men ran off. Ryan returned home shortly afterwards, his mother noticing his head wound. This event caused Ryan to want to fight crime and protect the innocent, throwing together a homemade suit fit for his heroic acts.

Night of the Wolf
During an evening stroll through the park, Ryan came across a man (named Jerry) harassing a couple near an alleyway before pulling out a knife, so Ryan sprung into his new costume and jumped into action. Ryan began his attack by kicking the knife-wielding Jerry to the ground as the couple stood by in awe.

Jerry got back up knife in hand and attempted to attack Ryan, who used his martial arts skills to block the knife and struck the man back to the ground. Telling Jerry to simply put down the knife and go home, Ryan realised that there was no use in trying to reason.

Going for another attack, Ryan simply disarmed the attacker and delivered a final blow to the face which knocked Jerry out cold. The couple thanked their saviour who left the scene afterwards.

Sitting on a roof, Ryan got a call from his friend Will who told him about an apparent "rabid dog" loose in the Corpus Omega facility. In an instant, Ryan made his way to the Corpus Omega building and snuck onto the premises using the roof.

Upon entering the dark facility, Ryan came across a blood trail which lead him to a gruesome scene. A half-eaten corpse was lying on the ground which sickened Ryan greatly, he is then instantly struck by a massive werewolf-like creature. Attempting to get back up, Ryan avoids a vicious attack by the monster and sneaks in a kick to its face in order to get away.

Running outside the facility, Ryan is attacked by the wolf once again and is this time pinned down. As the wolf inspects Ryan, he notices Iris' ID badge which horrifies him. The wolf is then shot in the shoulder by Thomas Craige, causing it to flee.

An angry Ryan questions Thomas, who states that he plans on putting the monster out of its misery. Now realising that the monster is in fact Iris, Ryan asks Thomas to leave them alone before heading off to find his friend.
