Editing Gideon Jura (section)

==Origins==
Gideon grew up on [[Theros]], where he was born Kytheon Iora in the city of Akros. Never knowing his father and his mother dying while he was still a young man, Gideon ended up as the head of a Robin Hood-style gang that took from the rich and gave to the rich. Eventually Gideon was captured and put in prison. Because of his talents the prison could not hold Gideon, and the constabulary handed him over to a man that would teach him hieromancy to rehabilitate him. After a few escape attempts Gideon folded and began to learn hieromancy in earnest.

During his training he was taught of the Planeswalkers. One of them was the teacher of Gideon's master and the original owner of the three-bladed whip called the ''sural''. He was also given a warning against pyromancers, one of whom killed the teacher's master. When he killed an opponent much stronger than he was, Gideon [[meme|saw everything forever]], attained Nirvana and fell into the Blind Eternities. When he hit the ground he lost his zen and quickly returned to his master, who revealed that he [[Just As Planned|expected this all along and was the reason he started to train Gideon]]. He was given the ''sural'' and left on his own, trying to find enlightenment once more.
