DRAGONS OF MURDER PEAK
The Mountain known as Murder Peak by the neighbouring Paragon tribes, is a quiet mountain in the middle of a bowl in the Tengal Rainforest, home to many Paragon, and other Draconic species. The mountain was named as such, because Tanith, the current leader of the clan, drove out the old Windgill inhabitants with brutal force and murder, and forced those who refused to leave into labour until they bled out and died. Most of the clan are not aware of Tanith's methods to secure the mountain though.

- Originally I had a plan to have a themed line of Paragon based after each Evelon Element. She was acid, though in the end I scrapped the project.
Bio
Tanith comes from a tight knit group of Paragon who don't seem quite right due to their very diluted Chaos heritage. Tanith herself possesses a few too many eyes, even for a Pipe, and she is capable of secreting poisons from her talons and scales if she feels threatened.
She is also able to adopt a human form with much more ease than a regular Paragon, and despite her position, prefers her human form more to her Chaos Paragon form. She's tricky, wily and loves playing mind games. She is also fairly sadistic and likes to see other people suffer.
Tanith and her small band of Chaos Paragon rule a small Paragon tribe on the edge of the Tengal, and nest within the bowels of a mountain. She managed to put the tribe together from a handful of outcast Paragon and assigned each of them a role based on their abilities.
Before all this, Tanith's group worked together with humans on a small village in the Farmlands, before Tanith and Kalte decided to group up and kill a human, and for this they were all exiled. Once Tanith had amassed a band of outcasts large enough, she twisted their hate into rage and used the outcast Paragon to massacre a whole Paragon tribe in order to take their land.

Female Placid Paragon

Bio
Katrina is by her very nature, the exact opposite of Tanith. This Chaos Paragon has powers over the earth and life, capable of coaxing plant life to grow where none exists. She's calm, insightful and does her best to assist others in need, and although she works under Tanith, she has been secretly plotting to end her tyranny for a long time. She has gained much popularity in the tribe, due to her ability to coax the life back into the land after Tanith completely defiled it during the massacre.
Apart from plotting Tanith's downfall, it is Katrina's job to attend to the sick and injured, and to hunt for plants that are useful for alchemy, and eventually when their tribe gets more numbers, to train more Paragon in the art of healing and collecting useful herbs.

[Cal-tay]
Male Lavamancer Paragon

Lineage: Custom

Notes: None
Bio
Kalte is one of the leading members of the mountain, and due to his Chaotic heritage he possesses some power over ice, able to blast prey with the cold and is able to breathe icy vapours.
After Tanith forced the old tribe out of the mountain, Kalte was given jurisdiction over defense and offense. He is in charge of training Warriors, who in turn make sure the mountain's perimeter is safe from attack, as well as maintain order within the mountain. He also trains Hunter's who bring back animals for the tribe to eat.
Kalte is a brooding, angry Paragon who is renowned for his explosive temper. He is not too liked, and most Paragon avoid him. He hates Tanith with a passion and wishes to see her dead, yet he can never bring himself to challenge her for leadership.

REBEKKA.
[Reh-bek-ah]
Female Fairy Paragon
Personality
Occupation: Paragon Leader
Form(s): Quad and Human
Lineage: Custom
Colour: #ff790b
Facts
Art: None
Notes: None
Bio
Rebekka is another of the Chaos Paragon in charge of Tanith's tribe. She completely resents the other Paragon for acting out against their masters and feels completely responsible for not being able to stop them in time. Because of this, she struggles with her self esteem and doesn't talk to any other of the ruling Chaos, aside from Katrina. She even doesn't talk to Rikard, even though he played no hand in their exile.
Her abilities are less flashy compared to the other Paragon, and she is really only capable of controlling her own body temperature. She can make herself so hot that another cannot even stand near her without feeling like they're cooking, or she can drop it so low to convince someone else that she's dead.
Despite this, she is a very motherly type and is one of the most trustworthy Paragon in the tribe. Her job is to watch over the new hatchlings and make sure no harm comes to it. She also uses her warmth generating ability to incubate the eggs effectively.

RIKARD.
[Rih-card]

Notes:
-
Bio
Rikard is another Chaos Paragon leader from Tanith's tribe, and he is personally in charge of the food stores. As a hatchling his wings only started to develop very late into his teenage years and he was always embarrassed about not having wings. Due to this, he personally coined the term Groundrunner and sought to find ways to make the flightless Paragon in the tribe feel special about their genetics. A Groundrunner's job is to patrol the territory by getting into areas that the trees are too thick for winged Paragon to get into, and to collect valuable herbs, roots and berries that some may not particularly see too well from the air.
He's a rather stressy Paragon, and it really does not take much to make him fret. The others tend to use this to their advantage to sway him to do what they want. He has powers over the earth and can use them to form huge caverns. He single-handedly carved out most of the mountain that they all now call home.

GABRIEL.
[Gay-bree-ehl]
Male Grim Paragon
Personality
Occupation: Warrior Paragon
Form(s): Quad
Lineage: Custom
Colour: #86795e
Facts
Art: None
Notes: None
Bio
A Warrior, from Tanith's Paragon tribe. He's Kalte's right hand man, and he's as fierce, as his big, black, skulled-face appearance implies. He's usually silent, and says very little outside of maliciously hissing. Most of the Paragon fear him, and avoid him as much as they can.
Appears to just be a silent brute, but Gabriel is also wickedly intelligent, he just chooses not to show it. Gabriel's egg was stolen from a nearby tribe by Kalte, who raised the hatchling to be a deadly killer. Like Kalte, Gabriel has little love for the leader, Tanith and would happily see Kalte leading the tribe instead of her.

Bio
A fiery Hunter from Tanith's Tribe. Was hatched in the wilds and had to fend for herself for a long time, until Tanith offered the adolescent a shelter and a permanent home.
She struggles to trust people, due to her childhood and constant petty struggles within the tribe itself, but the few people she does bond with, she will protect fiercely.
Doesn't really care for advances from males and will aggressively chase off attention that she does not approve of. One of the most aggressive Hunters, but not necessarily the fastest or strongest.

Notes:
- Designed is based on a Common Myna bird, a common invasive pest in Australia.
- Name means shadow or shady place in the Kabi Kabi language, and he is named after a town near where I used to live.
Bio
Noothera, or Noosa as he prefers to be called, is one of the youngest members of the Patrol, a squad designed to both patrol the territory for intruders, and spy on other tribes. Noosa is unique in the tribe for being the only child with a parent that was from the old tribe, the Ycari tribe. His mother, along with the rest of the tribe who didn't resist, were enslaved and used by Tanith to mine into the mountain, for precious minerals, and his father was one of the males from Tanith's tribe, who took advantage of her in her weakened state.
Despite his sad heritage, Noosa is blissfully unaware of how he came to be and is one of the most chipper Paragon of the tribe. He's talkative, friendly but extremely submissive. He's also one of the fastest fliers of the group.
