Lian is a Warden the player, (either as Akari or Rei,) interacts with in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, released in 2022. He gets focus in some fanworks, but much less so than other PLA characters. He is a member of the Pearl Clan, led by Irida, and watches over a notable Kleavor.
He is heavily implied to be Clay's and Lacey's ancestor, but this is technically fanon.
