[Theodric]

I think there's a real risk that much of what makes him so popular and memorable ends up being lost if he becomes a fully fledged Scion rather than a lone wolf who occasionally crosses paths with the protagonists. It's dangerous to keep a character around for the sake of keeping them around - especially if they undergo drastic changes to justify their return to the spotlight. It just risks alienating those who admire the character for what they already are.
