Alatus Fulgurite

Alatus Fulgurite is the current Executive of Security of the Lightning Flight.

Alatus joined the Tempest Spire Guard at a young age and became one of Captain Dran Dreadmaw’s lieutenants. He aided in a secretive coup against Dran and became Captain of the Guard himself after Dran’s death. His reign as Captain was marked for his relentless campaign against the rebellious Scorpion’s Den and for its insistence on a strong military force.

After many years of serving he retired from the TSG and joined the Security department. He eventually succeeded Kijzin Blackcliff and became an Executive. His Executiveship has been largely successful, but following incidents such as Sukozen’s Rampage and the hidden Shadebeast, his centuries of service to his Flight may be waning.

## Personality

Alatus is a proud, commanding, and resiliant dragon. He is easily the most respected dragon in the Tempest Spire, owed due to his centuries of work in the exalts. He is a brilliant leader and is able to make important decisions within a split second. He has a strong sense of humor, and finds great amusement in how intimidating he seems to be.

He is especially sympathetic towards those he is close to or those who cannot fend for themselves, and his favoritism among his exalts is quite evident. He is easily exasperated by others and will not hesitate to give harsh warnings or intervene in unfolding situations. In spite of his calm attitude, he is far from a pacifist. He seeks to resolve issues as fast as possible, and is not afraid to deal out discipline or hurt others if it ensures a better outcome.

He is easily exasperated by others and will not hesitate to give warnings and intervene in unfolding situations. While typically peaceful, Alatus is far from a pacifist. He seeks to resolve problems quickly and as straightforward as possible. He is not afraid to deal out discipline or to hurt feelings if it means a better overall outcome.

But despite his typical reasonability, his tendency to hold grudges has caused him many issues. It is rather difficult to get him to truly despise someone, but once it happens, it is impossible to go back. He can be very spiteful, and will refuse to forgive someone no matter how long ago their offense was.

## History

### Early Life

Alatus was born to Kiatus Fulgurite and Elan Stonereach alongside his siblings, Silvatus, Vivatus, and Noratus. Kiatus was a harsh and strict mother to all of her hatchlings except for Alatus, showing extreme favoritism for her eldest and strongest child. Alatus grew very close with his mother- and also grew very prideful. He was often a bully to his siblings, and clashed often with Vivatus and Noratus. He was only remotely kind to Silvatus, who had always stuck by his side.

He had big dreams of joining the Tempest Spire Guard, only charged by his mother's decades long contribution as a sergeant. Kiatus was heavily injured in a conflict with the Scorpion's Den, later on catching a deadly infection. Alatus was extremely distressed by his mother's condition, and stayed by her side throughout the entire time. Kiatus was only saved by a limb amputation, but was forced to retire from the TSG. This would only cement Alatus's love for his mother- and begin his centuries long hatred of the Scorpion's Den.

### Time in the Tempest Spire Guard

The second that Alatus was eligible, he was throwing himself to join the TSG. Followed by his brother, Alatus took to the guard like a fish to water. But things wouldn't be completely smooth sailing- especially when he met Mydryin Sandspirit.

The second they met each other in training, both dragons despised each other. Their personalities clashed immensely, and they would butt heads for many months. It would finally come to a head when they got into a true fight. Before they could maul one another, they were caught by their superiors- and were both strongly disciplined... with each other. Strangely enough, the two began to form a tense bond, and by the end of it, both were acting like they had known each other for years.
