Battle of Benegon

## Initial First Strike

HOTH has been ramping up their operations against UNSC forces. The most noticeable of actions being organized conquests of colonies controlled by the United Earth Government. One of these unfortunate colonies was a UNSC ship supplier world named Benegon. HOTH cells which had infiltrated the planet prior began to assault UNSC garrisons and cities across the planet. All with a HOTH invasion fleet consisted primarily of captured Charon-class Frigates moving in.

## Landing Operations

As Charon-class Frigates began dropping off HOTH Soldiers onto the surface of Benegon, UNSC forces supported by CDF elements had made attempts to deny the Harbringer's units access to open beach land perfect for Anti-air/orbital emplacements. Despite valiant attacks brought by the conglomerated forces, both the UNSC and CDF failed to defend the beach heads as well as sustaining significant losses. Soon after, both UNSC and CDF elements had fallen back to the capital city of Benegon. Ledan.

## 5th MEU Incursion

With the Navy of Benegon being kept at bay by HOTH Anti-air/orbital emplacements, the capital city would easily fall in a matter of days. However, the UNSC 5th Marine Expeditionary Unit had been deployed in an attempt to bring a surgical strike against the Harbringer's valuable emplacements. In the ensuing battle and aftermath, the 5th MEU had made successfully destroyed the emplacements, but also made contact with an odd green substance that HOTH had been experimenting on with their own soldiers. As well as a rare occurrence of a HOTH deserter.

 Element(s)

Artocus was the Ice Guardian before Cyril.

## **Personality & Character**

Artocus is a very friendly dragon. He's caring and good with children. He's very much a peacemaker, and is especially good at easing the tension in any situation, always reminding others that no matter how bad things could seem, life was still good.

## **Background**

Artocus was born to a lone dragon mother in the desert. Food was hard to find, and water even worse. His mother was a electric dragon and she didn't know how to handle a baby ice dragon as well as she would an electric dragon. His mother was close to dying of thirst one day, but when artocus started to breath ice which then melted into water, he was able to save her, and she and him made the long journey to the Dragon city where they would live. Artocus' powerful instincts was a great factor in choosing him to be Guardian. He thrived in his training, and his mother was always proud of him.

Artocus was one, if not the first, to fall by Malefor's claws.
Jozef Ponatowski

**Jozef J. Ponatowski,** (service number **92366-41073-JP**) also known as **'Polski'** or **'Ponts'**, is a twenty three year old service member of the UNSC who has served in the post-war era. He has been stationed on multiple ships, following the Fifth Marine Expeditionary Unit and the respective ship crew. He was once one of the senior members of the Provost Detachment stationed aboard the vessel, but was relegated after an infraction involving one of the Corpsmen.
M7057/Defoliant Projector

The ***M7057/Defoliant Projector,*** more commonly known as the ***M7057 Flamethrower***, is a UNSC heavy ground weapon used by certain members of the 5th Marine Expeditionary Unit. The ***M7057* is a donator weapon which has a price of $15.00 on the Altered donation page. Before use, Enlisted personnel must request permission of usage from an NCO, or *Non-Commissioned Officer*.**

## Gameplay

The *M7057* behaves similar to it's portrayal in the various Halo games(and later *Halo 5: Guardians*) but was recreated for use in the Source Engine and thus has some restrictions due to a different engine. Players can also lower or raise their weapon by holding the reload button for a short moment (the R key by default). Unlike any other Halo-themed weapon in *Garry's Mod*, the flames of the thrower are capable of causing much more damage to an NPC or another player than any other weapon, and can hit targets through most environmental objects.

## Trivia

* The M7057 is mostly used by Sergeant Wyatt Crenshaw of the 41st Engineering Corps.
* Most of its users call it the 'Flamer.'
* Like most of the Halo SWEPs, there is always a small possibility of the SWEP glitching out and spinning your screen.
Civilians

## Faction description

***Civilians*** are a minor faction player will run across during certain events. Often, the main objective relating to civilians to protect them from harm until EVAC can arrive to retrieve them.

## Gameplay Wise

Civilians, with the exeption of Admin/V.I.P. characters, are the Citizen NPCs encountered in *Half-Life 2* and will use sound bytes that are used by civilian NPCs when they are bumped into players, gain damage or are killed. If a player kills a civilian and it is /evented, the chances of dishonorable discharge for that player's character are high.

## Civilian Press

Breaking news and information regarding the 5th are typically produced through these outlets. Such articles can be found on the chat forums section.

Keep in mind thematicly this is a Space Hulk/Hive World setting, the more crowded the better. Use Random Deployment Zones as per BRB.

## Objectives

After terrain has been set up but before deployment zones are determined, Generate D6+'X'\* objectives, then each player takes turns placing 1 objective on the board as per the 40k BRB. Number them as they are placed.

\* 'X' is equal to the number of players.

After all forces have been deployed but before the first turn, you will need to assign a number of these objectives to become Nodes in addition to being objectives, to do this, consult the table below for the number of Nodes required (this corresponds to the number of players) and then randomly determine which objectives will become Nodes until you have the required number,

 2 - 3
4 - 5
6 +
4
5

## Deployment

Deployment is done in the same way as the basic rulebook with the following additional restrictions;

* All of a playeres models must be placed within 12" of each other model.
* Models wishing Infiltrate may still be deployed as per the BRB.
* Models wishing to Scout must be deployed within 12" of each other model initially but may then redeploy as per normal.
* Reserves may not be used, and nothing can be deployed in Reserves with the exception of units wishing to Outflank or those placed in Deep Strike Reserves.
* Models wishing to Outflank will automatically arrive on turn 1.
* Any units placed in Deep Strike Reserve will arrive on turn 1 on a 4+, otherwise they will arive on turn 2 automatically.

## Scoring

The player/team that wins will be the one with the most Victory Points at the end of the game. Victory Points are awarded by achieving the following objectives;

 **Slay the Leader** - Scored for each enemy Leader you eliminate
 **Hold Objective 'X'** - At the beginning of each turn, randomly select an Objective on the table, If at the end of any of your turns, you control that objective, gain +1 VP. Each Objective can only be used once per player in this way.
 **Hold and Control** - For each objective you control at the end of the game.

Harbringer's Blade

## Equipment

The Harbringer's Blade is Harbringer's personal battalion for either strategically important battles or defenses. As such, they are generally outfitted with more effective and efficient armor compared to the average HOTH Soldier. This includes armor on-par with UNSC Marines, the few scavenged weapons gained from combat with Remnant forces, and training akin to UNSC Orbital Drop Shock Troopers. A force to be reckon with, no less. The Harbringer's Blade Battalion has extensive access to HOTH reinforcements should the rare occasion of resistance being capable of stalling Harbringer's Blade.
Wildlife

Wildlife are a passive/event faction that are rarely seen or used, except in rare circumstances. Most of the time, they will be used as a distraction for the players while an event is running.

Tall Plains

"*Tall Plains was once home to a proud ancient tribe called the Atlawa. The Atlawa were a people in tune with the rhythms of the seasons, focused on their relationship with crops, their surroundings, their gods...*" - Ignitus

**Tall Plains** are a series of lush, green islands situated on massive cliffs. It is the home of the Atlawa tribe, led by their chief Kane. Extremely tall mountains hosting villages, farmlands and strongholds of the Atlawa. In the center stands their sacred shrine to their Stone God.

## History

The Earth Guardian Terrador was chosen to defend Tall Plains, and drove back Ape forces, sending them reeling.

Sometime later, the Ice Guardian Cyril was imprisoned on Tall Plains by Cynder, with her Ape armies roaming through the jungle, having captured the entire Atlawa tribe, overthrowing their proud chief Kane, who was saved by the purple dragon Spyro.

## Trivia

* According to Cyril, the Atlawa are "primitive and barbaric", though that could just be him being arrogant about them.

BR85HB battle rifle

The ***BR85HB Battle Rifle*** (or known as the BR85 Heavy Barrel Service Rifle (BR85HB SR)) is a burst-fire weapon used in the 5th Marine Expeditionary Unit. It is granted to players upon becoming a NCO. Up until October 10-11, 2015, the *Halo 4* variation of the weapon was used until it was replaced by it's variation seen in *Halo 5**:** Guardians*.

## Gameplay

The Battle rifle behaves similarly as it appeared in *Halo 4* (and later *Halo 5: Guardians*) with the exception of being recreated in and thus suffer the disadvantages of the Source Engine.

## Trivia

* The fact that only NCOs+ are eligible to be issued the battle rifle without donating can be considered lore-breaking due to the Battle rifle and it's variants being canoncally standard issue to all Marine personel.
* The use of the *Halo 5:Guardians* BR's smart scope can be considered slightly troublesome due to idle animations playing while it's scope is in use.

Pyralis grew up loving artifacts and histories of the dragon ancestors. Dawn was in love with Pyralis from the beginning. Pyralis was never much interested in love, but was flattered by Dawn's attention, and eventually, they were married. However though, as time went on, Pyralis never spent much time with Dawn and sometimes ignored her. She became 'the lonely wife of a writer,' so to speak, as Pyralis spent all his time writing in his books and studying the ancestors stories.

Pyralis took a great part in filling the Dragon city with the many histories that engulfs it, and it is his greatest pride. When Dawn eventually became pregnant with eggs, she though Pyralis would be as excited as she was, but he only shooed her away to leave him in peace to write in his scrolls. When the eggs hatched to two baby boy dragons, Dawn asked Pyralis what he would name them. He told her to name them herself, for he had other matters to deal with. Dawn named her sons Flame and Candol.

White Isle

The **White Isle** is an isolated island that lies somewhere in the ocean. It is the home of the Chronicler. A mysterious world that doesn't follow the laws of time or space. It holds a book for each and every dragon that's lived on the planet, and in some books even writes glimpses of the future.

## History

### The Eternal Night

After passing out following Skabb's defeat, Spyro was taken to the White Isle by a Leviathan. The purple dragon realized that this was the place they were looking for, and began exploring the Isle.

Before Spyro could meet the Chronicler, he had to pass the trials and even face an elemental embodiment of Cynder during her time under Zirra's possesion. Once Spyro defeated it, he encountered the Chronicler and from him, learned about Cynder's past as well as the history of the Dark Master. The Chronicler asked Spyro to stay with him in safety and ride out the storm that is coming, but Spyro refused, opting to save Cynder, and was then shown the way to the Mountain of Malefor.

UNSC Naval Intelligence

## Faction description

"*The Office of Naval Intelligence is a division of the UNSC Navy that is responsible for counter-espionage and propaganda. Although it is under the jurisdiction of the Navy, ONI appears to report directly to HIGHCOM. It is responsible for intelligence matters across the UNSC. As such, ONI employs members of other military branches, and even civilians, to complete the Division's shadowy work."*

## Gameplay wise

"*This faction is limited to the people we have in it because of it's ability to gain knowledge on all matters on the ship, ground and other from other factions. We do not want people who will leak the information OOCly or something and then have to deal with shitstorms. There is no clear and precise way to enter this faction"*

The faction, in terms of play-ability, only allows Section One of ONI to be serving on the ship. Not much is known about the faction, other than that they perform several intelligence-wise operations on their own. Entering the ONI Offices on the ship without permission will most likely result in capital punishment, and a PK for the character that entered.
Warfang

"*It was built long ago by the Moles in honor of their friendship with the Dragons.*" — Hunter

**Warfang**, also known as the **Dragon City**, is a massive city dedicated to the Dragons. Built by the Moles long ago in celebration of their friendship with Dragons, it is run by a city mayor and is the main home of Dragons.

## History

Long ago, Warfang was built by the Moles in honor of their friendship with the Dragons, who were revered.

Centuries later, Malefor returned shortly after the Night of Eternal Darkness and attacked Warfang. He used his dark magic to tear the city temple and fractions of the city from the ground and suspended them above the region as a symbol of his dominance.

### Dawn of the Dragon

Three years later, Hunter of Avalar led Spyro and Cynder through the Forbidden Tunnel to the Dragon City of Warfang. As soon as they arrived, the city was under attack by Malefor's army of Grublins. After putting out a building fire and rescuing a group of Moles, the city came under a fierce assault from outside the walls. Spyro and Cynder helped defend Warfang atop the ramparts. Once the city gates were sealed shut, the army of Grublins retreated, despite having an advantage against the citizens of Warfang by large numbers, allowing the Golem from the Varia Catacombs to attack the city. The Guardians Ignitus, Terrador, Cyril, and Volteer lead the attack on the Golem.

After it was finally killed, the Guardians were reunited with Spyro and Cynder. Later that night, the Dark Master Malefor sent them an ominous message through a dark crystal: he had revived the Destroyer, an ancient creature whose only purpose was to renew the world by bringing about its destruction. Unable to catch the creature if they fly after it, Ignitus concocted the plan by going underground to intercept the Destroyer before Malefor could realize the city was unguarded.

After Spyro reconstructed the world, Warfang was later seen being rebuilt in the wake of the Age of Restoration.

Candol was much more reserved than Flame, and took back to watching and listening rather than going out and making friends. He watched his parents and knew instantly that something was very wrong with them. He found out that Dawn was thinking of leaving their father. When Candol told Flame this, Flame refused to believe it.

"*Face it, Flame. Our parents are splitting up. Figures, anyway. They weren't even that close, were they?*" - Candol

"*Don't talk like that about them, Candol! And they're NOT splitting up! You're lying! You always lie!*" - Flame

Indeed, Candol was very much a fast and smooth talker. He was a good actor and could make anyone trust him. Many young dragonesses liked him and he was usually seen walking around the city surrounded by friends. He was also a trouble maker and often got Pyralis in trouble. Pyralis would then scold him harshly on how bad he was making him look. Candol hated his father. One for never paying attention to him, and two for only caring about himself.
Dawn could sense this about her son, and was very distraught, not knowing how to help him.
Fire

**Fire** is one of the main elements of the Dragons, having both a primary and secondary attack form. Ignitus was the Guardian of Fire.

## Abilities

The Fire Stream is the basic breath and can spread from enemies to other enemies. The Fire Ball has the ability to hurl fire bombs that arched forward and exploded upon impact. The Comet Dash is a flaming, ramming attack and can cause massive amounts of damage. The Fire Fury is a cylinder shaped blast of fire with comets circling around it.

## Trivia

* The element of Fire was the first element both Spyro and Malefor mastered.
* Previous Dragons who mastered Fire are Dragsooth, Malak, Ishlandur, Berylsythe, and Frillisean.
* The greatest Fire Fury in history was unleashed by Frillisean, killing 100 ghouls at once.
Samantha Wolf

Samantha Jane Wolf was a UNSCMC Scout/Sniper serving with the 5th MEU.

## Fate

Wolf was declared MIA/Presumed KIA after escaping the HOTH prison, when she was split from her squad and her IFF declared her deceased, however her body was never recovered. The UNSC officially declared her KIA in 2560, however, reports of a woman matching Wolf's description were filed up until 2575 in multiple locations, including Australia, Great Britain, Germany, Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, China, Taiwan and Korea.
Dante's Freezer

"*Dante's Freezer is a desolate arctic expanse that's littered with the machinery of war... soldiers and weapons frozen forever in the posture of destruction. You must find Volteer before he's lost forever.*" — Ignitus

**Dante's Freezer** is a large island covered in ice and snow, surrounded by an enormous fortress. The ice battles that took place here caused the soldiers to forever freeze in battle worn postures, leaving the island and stronghold long since abandoned. It is said that approaching these frozen soldiers would cause them to fight again, but in an undead state. The island was ruled by the Ice King. It has now fallen into the hands of the Apes.

## History

As far as dominion over Dante's Freezer went, it was decided that the Ice Guardian Cyril was to be its protector, since he would be perfectly suited to the extreme cold there. He had watched over Dante's Freezer for some time, fighting off the forces of the Dark Master.

Sometime later, the Electricity Guardian Volteer was captured by Cynder to drain his power.

The Fire Guardian Ignitus sent the purple dragon Spyro to Dante's Freezer to free Volteer from Cynder's imprisonment. During the trek through the island, Spyro learned Electricity.

## History

The Faun population is a rare breed in this world. They are very magical creatures with special talents of communicating with the forest and creatures in it. Fauns posses great luck and any who are around them are blessed with luck as well. The Fauns chose their land in a peaceful spot by the shore. Regrettably, they live right by the wolf clan, but the wolves have no interest in bothering them, and both tribes have a peace pact between them. The Fauns have their own ancient language that they prefer to speak in. Most Fauns have accents when speaking in english. It is the Fauns language that Zirra got her name from, for in the Faun language, "Zirra" means "Curious one."
Fear

**Fear** is an element created by Zirra.

## Abilities

The Siren Scream is a scream in the form of red rays that hits enemies and petrify them with fear. The sound is also loud enough to activate tuning forks. The Phantom Fright are ghastly orbs that, when near enemies, swirl around enemies, stun them and explode with concussive force. When Zirra does the Fear Fury, three scars appear upon her right eye, where Mesphito struck her, and a red mist forms around her that if touched will disintegrate anyone. A red beam is shot into the air, and the silhouette of a red dragon head forms in the sky. The silhouette then charges to the ground and in an explosion, all in the vicinity vaporizes, all seeing their worst fears as they die.

## Trivia

* Fear is the first element Zirra created.
Frozen Empire

Founded
 Inhabitants

## History

As is well known among the dragons, the Ice dragons are the most prideful of the elements, and some even believe that they shouldn't associate with any other dragon besides another Ice. The Ice dragons chose to live together on an ice filled island and created an empire for themselves. Each Emperor and Empress is chosen by royal blood. The current Empress is one of distraught, as she fell in love with a Shadow dragon and had a child by him, which was then destroyed in the raid upon the temple, and the father, her love, killed by Malefor's forces when he went after them in a rage. Immediately afterward she was crowned Empress. The Empire currently does not run as powerfully as it once did.
Apadian

Apadian is an OC created by EnderEmerald46. They are the forced fusion of Apatite and Obsidian.

## Appearance

Apadian, being the fusion of Apatite and Obsidian, has traits of both of them in their appearance. They have indigo skin, with light-indigo hair with their ponytail and shoulder-length styles visible. It's slightly less tidy than either gem. They still have Andesine's eye on their neck, and their gemstone is visible. They wear a light-indigo lab coat and an even lighter tanktop, as well as a mix of Apadian's shorts and Obsidian's skirt with two open delta symbols, one per leg. They also wear a fusion of Apatite's shoes and Obsidian's high heels.

## Story

One day, while Obsidian was active, a ship appeared on the beach. Inside was Yellow Apatite and Blue Apatite- the two gems that were going to experiment on Apatite back on Homeworld. Due to Obsidian's naivety, Yellow Apatite simply pretends to be Obsidian's brother and easily kidnaps Obsidian. Once on board, he hooks Obsidian into a device and, after becoming irritated by her, turns it on, causing Obsidian to be continually electrocuted. The shocking causes Apatite and Obsidian to be forced into a state where both personalities are active at once. Soon, the Crystal Gems go on the ship to find Apatite and Obsidian, and soon Garnet finds them- but by now the side effects of both being active at once are starting to take a toll on them- their minds/personalities have mostly melted together, and by the time Garnet can stop Yellow Apatite and free Apatite and Obsidian, the two have fully merged, forming Apadian. Yellow Apatite states that due to the method and who Apatite and Obsidian were, the two will be unable to defuse back into themselves. When they first wake up, they go into a panic over realizing the truth, but are soon comforted by Andesine. They now live in the Alteration Gems's base with Andesine, Bismuth, and Carmelian.

## Personality

Just like their appearance, Apadian has traits of Apatite and Obsidian in their personality. They are mostly nervous due to how their personalities are melted together and there are a lot of meshed and conflicting thoughts. They occasionally suffer from bad mood swings causing them to act either super excited (Obsidian) or super nervous (Apatite) and need to be comforted or isolate themselves to calm down. They also have a lot of self-pity, once being consumed by their own self-pity in the form of an evil Yellow Apadian in their mindscape.

### Dreams

Apadian has a lot of nightmares, these are the most common:

* Being forced to relive a bad experience from their past.
* Becoming an Apatite/Obsidian cluster.
* Being trapped in a green and purple maze while being chased by an indigo fog
* Being trapped in a white void, unable to move, talk, or feel.

## Fusions

* Apadian + Andesine = Taaffeite.
* Apadian + Bismuth = Lepidolite.
* Apadian + Andesine + Bismuth + Carnelian = Delta.
* (Apadian + Bismuth + Ruby + Sapphire)Plushie = Plushmalgate
A Tale of Hope

***(CONTAINS SPOILERS)***

During Malefor's reign, many dragons stood to fight against him. His forces were strong, but there was one dragoness who crippled his efforts time and time again. She died in battle fighting against him, and is known as a hero among the Dragon race. But in truth, little was actually known about her. This story will show the tale of Frillisean, the dragon soldier who paved the way to Malefor's defeat.
Cheetahs

The **Cheetahs** are a peaceful race of felines in the Dragon Lands. Their leader is Chief Prowlus. Hunter is a rogue member of the race.

## History

The Cheetahs are a peaceful people that live a quiet life in the wilds of the Dragon Lands. They show little interest in the affairs of the larger world and have a fearful distrust of Dragons due to the misfortunes caused by Malefor and Evil Cynder. They were soon forced into action when Malefor's army threatened their way of life. One Cheetah named Hunter attempted to help in the war against Malefor before his village got involved. After their encounter with Spyro and Cynder, the cheetahs joined the Dragon race in their fight against Malefor's forces. It was mentioned by Meadow that not all of the cheetahs share the same views as their village leader, Prowlus, who held a strong and understandable distrust towards Dragons.

## Trivia

* All of the cheetahs have very similar appearances. Though they may be different colors and holding different weapons, they all have the same stance and the same eyes.

He was taught to work very hard by his father Terillus, which makes him a very 'get it done' type. When he was just a hatchling, he met a female hatchling named Phonorius, who became his best friend his whole life.

## **Trivia**

* His favourite food was large birds.
* His hobbies were building and sculpting, swimming, and crafting.

## **Background**

Celosia and Dagan tried to have children for a very long time. Celosia would eventually become pregnant with eggs, but she would always then have miscarriages. Dagan believed that they would never have hatchlings, but Celosia never gave up hope. During one pregnancy, Celosia lasted through the whole term and she finally laid and egg. Dagan was in seventh heaven and Celosia was never happier. When the egg hatched to a beautiful pink baby dragoness, Celosia decided to call her Ember, in the sense that she was finally the burning ember among the coals of her miscarriages.

Just as Ember was entering her teen years, Celosia and Dagan decided to take her to the temple to be trained. On the way however, they came upon a Tremor. Dagan fought off the Tremor while Celosia took Ember and ran. She arrived at the temple and watched over the lands for Dagan to appear, but he never came.

As the days went on, Celosia finally had to accept that the Tremor had killed Dagan. Celosia and Ember were horribly distraught, but soon Celosia discovered that she was again pregnant with another egg. Dagan's last child.

The egg hatched to a green earth dragoness who Celosia named Cosmo, for her earth element. Ember was so thrilled to have a little sister that she would take her every where and show her off. But as Cosmo grew and began to follow Ember everywhere she went and would never leave her alone, Ember became a bit annoyed with her and usually ran for it when she found her following her. But Ember loves her sister very deeply, and plays with her many times. Celosia is usually kept pretty busy looking after little Cosmo that Ember sneaks away to go hang with her friends quite often.

Ember and Celosia still miss Dagan very much, and talk about him very often. Cosmo, having never met him, usually just watches them interested. The rings Celosia wears on her tail were given to her by Dagan, and she never takes them off.
Moles

Diet
 Homelands

## Behavior

The moles are a highly-advanced race specializing in technology, ie. their weaponry and machinery. Not only are they the architects of Warfang, they are also its protectors. What they lack in size is more than made up for in heart and courage.

## History

Over a thousand years ago, the Moles have a long, time-honored alliance with all of Dragonkind, and to honor their friendship, they built the Dragon city of Warfang.

*"I got the melons, Mull. You ready?"*

Illuzo is the main protagonist of *Connected Bonds*.

## **Background**

Illuzo’s mother, Maralah, passed away when Illuzo was young, and she was the one who usually took care of Lu while Granite would be off a lot to work. When she died, not much changed that way. Granite still spends most his time working and Lu hangs with his friends most of the time, even spending nights at theirs all the time. Granite was never a children guy, so he often doesn’t know what to do with Illuzo. He even doesn’t “child up” his talk. Meaning that he talks to him like an adult, not leaving out the bad news or things like that. This is also why Lu seems to talk more adult himself, while still having a kid side to him. So, even if it may seem like Granite ignores him, he doesn’t. He’s just not that much of a parent.

## **Trivia**

* Granite and Illuzo are more muscular built than most Shadow dragons, and that could be due to an Earth heritage.
* The Guardians' mole assistant named Gabriol showed Illuzo how to train and use falcons.

Ice

**Ice** is one of the main elements of the Dragons. Cyril is the Guardian of Ice.

## Abilities

The Ice Shards can spray streams of ice to freeze enemies and knock flying enemies down and shoot ice spikes to slow them down and kill them faster. The Polar Bomb can create ice platforms in liquids, freeze enemies, and put out fires. The Ice Tail attack can knock back surrounding enemies while freezing them simultaneously. The Snow Storm creates a freezing cyclone of ice and snow to kill enemies quickly. The Ice Fury is a sphere of ice covered with icicles, which then explodes outwards.

## Trivia

* Some Ice Dragons became so proud of their element that they believed that they should not associate with the other elements, and created an empire of Ice all to themselves. This empire became known as the Frozen Empire.
* Previous Dragons who mastered Ice are Bissthalan, Hydrax, Perisher and Fayveer.

 Element(s)

*"I feel as though my student will be a complete success. She's patient and smart, and already seems to be one with her element. Of course, for Ice Dragons, this is all very natural."*

Cyril is the current Ice Guardian.

## **Personality & Character**

Cyril is a coldly confident and predominately prideful dragon, who constantly brags about supposedly royal ancestry. He is brimming with pride and arrogance, claiming that his lineage is that of some long forgotten yet great dragons. He does not hold his tongue when speaking and he can often be sarcastic, Volteer usually being the target of these remarks due to the electric Guardian's incessant babbling. Despite his short comings, however, he knows when he should swallow his pride and do the right thing, admitting that Spyro is the way forwards and that he and his fellow Guardians must step aside.

## **Attacks and Abilities**

As a Master of Ice, Cyril's proficiency is unmatched by no one but Spyro in raw power, but it takes Cyril's tutoring to truly allow Spyro to be able to control his element efficiently and with any grace.
Poison

**Poison** is an element created by Zirra.

## Abilities

The Venom is spitting a boiling green glob of lethal venom onto foes. The Scorpion Strike is used by spinning into enemies while covered in lethal poison, cutting into them with a deadly payload of venom. When Zirra does the Poison Fury, she spreads her wings out and the area fills with a putrid green mist. Spores and mushrooms grow from the ground and sickly vapor floats through the air. The foe's lungs are filled with poison and they fall to the ground coughing to death. The last thing they see is Zirra's red eyes and yellow mark staring them down through the mist. The mushrooms and spores stay in the spot that the fury took place.
Munitions Forge

*"Munitions Forge is an island dominated by Boyzitbig, an unstable volcano that makes life on the surface very dicey. The locals, who live underground, have been forced to mine the metals that Cynder uses to forge her army's weapons. They're called Manweersmalls."* — Ignitus

**Munitions Forge** is a hot, lava pit-infested island.

The volcano Boyzitbig was severed with the rest of the islands during the Great Calamity, and the island became known as Munitions Forge. It was claimed by the Ape clan because of the metal underground hardened by the peculiar and unstable volcano. The professional Manweersmall miners were captured and forced to mine these metals for the Apes.

## History

During the war between the Dragons and the Dark Armies, the Fire Guardian Ignitus stood his ground defending Munitions Forge from the scourge of Apes.

Sometime later, the Earth Guardian Terrador was captured by Cynder so she can drain his power. The purple dragon Spyro would travel to the polluted Munitions Forge to save Terrador from Cynder's forces as Boyzitbig was preparing to erupt.

Twilight Falls

**Twilight Falls** is a massive waterfall in the Valley of Avalar. It lies between the Varia Catacombs and the Enchanted Forest. The Cheetah clan hold this area in high respect.

## History

### Dawn of the Dragon

On their departure out of the Varia Catacombs, Spyro and Cynder were led through a cave by Hunter and followed a river, which ended into a large, glistening waterfall with a marvelous view of the forest surrounding the area and the rays of the Celestial Moons shining down to the waterfall, which is where Twilight Falls got its name. The falls lead down to the forest below where Hunter met them by a fallen tree and they had to fight a group of Grublins. The two dragons and Hunter went to rest in the Enchanted Forest.

Once there, Hunter explained to Spyro and Cynder that the Dark Master had escaped shortly after they disappeared, and that the world had been in utter chaos ever since. While sitting around their campfire, they are ambushed and dragged to the Cheetah Village.

Infrit

 Element(s)

**Infrit** is next in line for the Fire Guardian position.

## **Background**

Infrit's egg was found in a feline village, and when he hatched, not much was thought of him. He was essentially the stray animal of the neighborhood, often fed scraps from the locals. He was eventually brought to the Dragon Temple out of pity from one of the felines. A dragon should have more dignity than this. Training him was difficult, as he couldn't communicate properly than that of a wild animal. But eventually he was taught to speak and write, and since more time was put into these skills, his fire lessons suffered. His fire abilities are barely noticeable, as he is a timid and easily frightened child. Upon the ceremony to choose the next Guardians, all jaws were dropped when Infrit was chosen as the future Fire Guardian. Many still live in disbelief of the thought, and occasionally regard Infrit with heavy judgment. A dragon so frail and pathetic could never grow to be a mighty Guardian, could it?

With Ignitus dead, there would be no Guardian to teach Infrit the position. However, before his death, Ignitus instructed Terrador that should something happen to him, Merona was to become the young apprentice's teacher.

Reluctantly, because of Merona's troubled nature, the Guardians honored his request and assigned Merona the position of teaching Infrit.

## **Weaknesses**

Infrit has a speech impediment, where some words are still hard for him to pronounce and often times he'll sit there trying to say a word for a good while when talking.

His fire abilities are extremely weak, and he'll often be frightened by his own flames.

## **Trivia**

* No one, not even the ones of the Feline village, are sure where his egg came from.
* He feels an overwhelming peace and comfort when standing in front of the Frillisean statue.
Emberticus

 Element(s)

Emberticus was the Fire Guardian before Ignitus.

## **Personality & Character**

Emberticus is a quiet dragon, but commanding and a strong leader when necessary. He sometimes struggles to give mercy to his foes, killing them on sight rather than hanging back for information or what else. He's especially protective of family groups, always offering his council or help. He keeps his emotions pent up inside him rather than shed tears or fury anger, until they are about to burst, in which he travels to a volcano far away, and let's it all out.

## **Background**

Emberticus was chosen to be the fire guardian at age 7. He took his training seriously but always found time for his little sister, Fiori. Emberticus' parents died when he and his sister were young, so they looked out for each other since. During an attack from the apes on the city, Fiori was killed in the confusion, and Emberticus spent many years mourning and beating himself up for it. He began to fail in his training rapidly, and it wasn't until he got a visit from the Chronicler who told him that if he didn't become Guardian, many will die the same way his sister did. Emberticus immediately dove back into his training and became a strong Guardian, determined, personally, on finding a way to defeat the ape clan once and for all.

He, along with Tempestier, passed away peacefully once the new Guardians were chosen.

## **Trivia**

* It is said that he's one of the very few who know of the Chroniclers existence and whereabouts, and has visited him more than once.

*"Oh scorch... don't look now."* - Flame

## **Background**

Flame tends to spend a lot of time away from his dramatic family, and talks more to the Guardians and his friends. But he still idolized his father very much and loves learning as much as he does. Often when Flame volunteers to conduct a tour for newcomers, he likes to pretend that he is his father, but that's his secret.

When Dawn took Flame and Candol to train at the temple, Flame was immediately teased for his abnormally large nose. Groups of hatchlings would surround him and bully him. One day however, Ember walked out of the crowd and told them all to stop. They immediately turned on her and started teasing her as well, but she didn't care. She took Flame with her to meet her friends Frisha and Taius. The four became very good friends later on.

Flame and Ember became very close and Flame would confess to Ember that he was embarrassed by his big nose. Ember told him not to worry about it, that he would grow into it. And he indeed did when he started becoming a teenager.

When Terrador asked Flame if he would be willing to go search for the purple dragon, Spyro, Flame found it as a great honor and accepted immediately. But Flame asked if Ember could come along with him. Flame asked Terrador to not tell anyone that though. Terrador promised.
PDAs

A **chatter**, also referred to as a **COM pad**is a small human computer, similar to a cellphone or Personal digital assistant, that has many different uses. They can communicate with other chatters and their users, keep calendars, and store files of different types. Novelty shops often sell disposable versions for colonial refugees, who are unable to afford a regular service.

The larger "ChatterNet", as some people call it, is maintained and policed by the Chatter Protocol Authority, and plays a vital role in everyday life. Personal finances can be tracked and managed electronically over the ChatterNet, though paper money and coins can still be used (instead of Credits). Experienced hackers regularly break into chatter lines in a process called "ghosting," permitting them to spy on other people without being noticed. Going offline is a risky venture which gives one the advantage of avoiding such surveillance, but restricts them from performing many everyday activities, similar to the Surveillance Grid, which can be very risky and inconvenient. The ChatterNet is also locked out from UNSC bases through a firewall system referred to as a "ChatterWall"; this prevented Team Durga from using their AI when they first arrived at Chawla Base.

ChatterNet is mentioned regularly throughout Hunt the Truth as an alternative to Waypoint (Communication) that isn't completely moderated by ONI and the UNSC. Benjamin Giraud uses it on occasions to contact people without the knowledge of ONI, such as Mshak Moradi and his contacts.

## Trivia

* The chatter was originally mentioned in *i love bees*, leaving it suspect as Halo Universe canon. However, it was legitimized with its mention in the Audio log in *Halo 3: ODST*.
* The UNSC and ONI cannot directly access Chatter or ChatterNet material.
