Thurin (Clan of the Broken Valley)

== Biography ==
A haughty and snide, yet mysteriously quiet dragon, Thurin much preferred to remain in the Trade Center rather than roam Sornieth looking for a buyer, keeping his wares in pristine condition. He loathed visitors, but would've died for his children and mate. The death of Kochka, Muileag the First, and his mate Phelga made him unstable, and the Clan quietly withdrew his official title, leaving him to protect what he had left with only his enduring perception of his responsibility, which he clung on to. 
His remaining hatchlings' eventual betrayal led to a majority of his Clanmates' deaths, and absolutely destroyed him. He died during the period of the Council's Retreat.
== An excerpt of my old bio for them ==
Thurin is thought by the rest of the Clan to be a former prince because of his regal airs. He can be quite lofty but also oddly apprehensive, which can lead to some snappish encounters. They're actually right to some extent; Thurin ruled as the pet of some beast chief and learned about politics and posturing in the courtroom and all of that (or thought he did). The kingdom has since been overthrown, and so Thurin came to the Clan. 
Lofty, paranoid, cunning.'''
He bargains with any traders that venture through and is able to stretch the smallest deals in the Clan's favor. The rest of the Clan respects him for this and take care to treat him politely so they can continue to profit from his skillset, but still find him annoying.
Within the first few days of his arrival, he became attached with the late Phelga through her involvement in his trade business. She was Ayella's Guardian and the Master of the Caves, so when she died, the loss was dearly felt by everyone in the Clan, not just him. At the time of her death, Thurin and Phelga had three hatchlings together; Cireanach, Muileag, and Kochka. As it happened, both Phelga and Muileag died in the Beastclan Attack. 
Now the family dwells together under the trees, and no one, not even Thurin, knows the true depths of his children's plans.
Thurin makes his nest at the top of the Central Tree; he actually takes up quite a few spirals in order to store his goods. He refuses to use the caves because of the extra haul. But as long as you let him know you're there, he doesn't mind if a dragon wanders around his quarters; he may even be flattered (but only secretly)!
