Kurgh is a hunter of monsters and a monster in hunting. His shell is adorned with the heads of those who invade the swampy domains of the turtlefolk. Kurgh is muscular and his shell is nigh impenetrable. He never lets loose when his jaws snap shut. He wields an ancient cleaver-blade, that is passed on from generation to generation of monster hunters, able to split a rock or the skull of any monster that could possibly cause harm within the domain. 

There are several very distinctive species of dragons. All of which have their own behaviour and natural habitat, their own ways to hunt down their prey. The dragon called Madraxx is a Venom Spitter Dragon, a species known for the acidic venom it uses as a weapon, be it hunt, defense or attack. The wise agree upon the fact that these dragons have a common ancestry with certain vipers and there are a few traits they still share with their unlimbed kind.

Varekh is a warrior from the Unicorn Tribe. Years ago, Varekh left his tribe to wander the realms and see the world. It was on one of his journeys he found the dwarf Gandharr, who won the trust of the young warrior by saving his life and fighting by his side against wyrms and drakes. Gandharr even gifted his freind with a twin-weapon of his own dragon-axe. When it became known to him the lands of the Unicorn Tribe were in danger from dragon attack, Varekh brought his dwarven ally with him. They were soon to be joined by the tribe‘s archery mistress, Kira.

• Tsune (Fox Spirit):

The asian fox spirits called Kitsune are of powerful if unpredictable nature. Their level of power and experience is directly related to the number of tails: The more tails, the more powerful the Kitsune. These spirits are able to change their form at will, so several named Kitsune may be only one spirit in different guises. One of these named forms is Tsune, a giant white fox with seven tails. Tsune wears a golden, ornamental rigging around the chest and golden bracers around the forelegs. The spirit is known to watch heroic battles and to bring wounded heroes to its lair and nurse them, unleashing its considerable magical powers only on rare occasions.

• Agnes (Female Knight):

Most who are asked who the natural enemy of a dragon would be, answer simply a knight in shining armour. And they are not far from the truth. Agnes is a knighted girl, who learned her sword fighting from childhood. She will as willingly free any damsel or princeling in distress as she will fight a dragon’s wrath with nothing more than her shining armour and trusty blade. Her questing days are years past, still she fights for those who look up to her for help and for righteousness itself. Agnes often puts her ideals of chivalry above the dangers she is facing, making her a true embodiment of knighthood.

• Arboryas (Forest Dragon Ancient):

Dragons grow slowly, but the older they become the bigger they grow. So does their power. There are endless subspecies of dragons, who can adapt to any environment from firespitting mountains to the icy plains of the north. Arboryas is an ancient amongst his kind, a dragon, whose habitat are the green, forest covered slopes of the Darkspire Mountains. A giant of a creature, he is not easily detected in his realm. His scales mimic the leaves of the surrounding trees and even his spikes and horns resemble the look of wood. What unknowing wanderer may have strolled no more than a few strides next to that „invisible“ reptile?

• Lapidazyl (Crystal Dragon Ancient):

Another dragon ancient, Lapidazyl lives in the underworld of the Scalecaverns, a huge sytem of caves and tunnels reaching under rocks and mountains. These caves are known to grow potent magical crystals, which have inspired many daring adventurers to enter Lapidazyl’s lair. Few returned to tell their tale. This mighty dragon is said to linger on a pile of the most precious and potent crystals for thousand of years or to eat them and absorb their power. Whatever the connection, his form is full with protruding crystals that glow in the rythm of his pounding heart.
