[font=Times New Roman][size=5]Andariel[/size]
[size=4]The Maiden of Anguish - Matriarch[/size]
[size=4]The absolute Matriarch of the Cult. Discovered by Anstix as nothing more than a skeleton,
she was continuously fueled by the power her members have been giving her. She had fed on her prisoners, both physically and mentally, until her body had been rejuvenated to its prime condition. Failing to contain the Maiden, Andariel overthrew the previous Order and took over their lands as her own.
She is a vicious monstrosity of a dragon. She takes pleasure upon the emotional pain of others.[/size][/columns]
[columns][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=37078073][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/portraits/370781/37078073p.png[/img]
[nextcol]
[font=Times New Roman][size=5]Anstix[/size]
[size=4]Devoted Apothecary[/size]
[size=4]Anstix had been just a small pup when he had first discovered Andariel, sleeping within her massive ribcage. He later discovered that she had still been "alive", in awe of such an immense entity. Devoted to his cause, he gathered up dragons far and wide across the Scarred Wastelands in order to help him with his cause. He now is delighted to see that his goal has been met, seeing the Maiden restored back to her true self.
He is both smart and cowardly. He shrinks away at any signs of Andariel's "playful" behavior or rage, submitting to her as he tries his best to avoid her consequences. He sells his own concoction of poisons, which are created straight from himself.[/size][/columns]

[nextcol]
[font=Times New Roman][size=5]Gore[/size]
[size=4]First Head of the Cerberus Watchbog[/size]
[size=4]Gore was the first to cry when he and his siblings had broken out of his shell. He swatted at the two other heads he thought were connected to his body, but was soon corrected by a tug of a massive claw upon his own front leg.
Following along with his siblings, he can deliver a powerful blow with his tail and claws upon his opponents. He is stubborn, but not terribly so.[/size][/columns]
[columns][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=37233794][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/portraits/372338/37233794p.png[/img]
[nextcol]
[font=Times New Roman][size=5]Slay[/size]
[size=4]Second Head and Leader of the Cerberus Watchbog[/size]
[size=4]Slay was the first head to open her eyes as a small pup, only to see Andariel standing over her small frame. She struggled amongst her "brothers" to control their body, limbs flailing about as she struggled to move within Andariel's grasp. Instead of being ended for being a monstrosity, she and her brothers were welcomed as a spoiled pet to the Maiden of Anguish.
Slay is the most intelligent of the three. She keeps her other siblings in check and pays close attention to her surroundings for anything that may seem wrong.[/size][/columns]

[font=Times New Roman][size=5]Maul[/size]
[size=4]Third Head of the Cerberus Watchbog[/size]
[size=4]Maul was the first to smell when he had been hatched. His first scent was the Maiden of Anguish, which he surprisingly didn't have any negative reaction to. He was comforted by the scent of a much older dragon, imprinting her as their mother.
Maul delivers a powerful, jaw-snapping bite upon his opponents.[/size][/columns]

[font=Times New Roman][size=5]Ephurthomel[/size]
[size=4]Recordkeeper[/size]
[size=4]Just like any Nocturne, Ephurthomel has the capability of mimicking any other voices he hears. With this, he uses it to his advantage. He remembers most things he has heard or read,
making him perfect for his job as a recordkeeper. However, he also uses this gift as a capability to strike fear into others by mimicking dragons that are close to the victim.
He is careful and precise with his work, pronouncing each word as best as he can. He makes sure of it.[/size][/columns]

[font=Times New Roman][size=5]Melinoe[/size]
[size=4]Shaman Priestess[/size]
[size=4]Melinoe had travelled throughout the Scarred Wastelands for years without purpose. She lacked to find any, thus losing herself to the pestilence within its landscape. It had altered her form to become atrocious, becoming numb to the pain as time went on. However, she grew drawn to the sheer amount of energy the Maiden of Anguish radiated and sought to find this source. She had been accepted into the Cult, revealing the wisdom she hasn't released to dragons for a long while.
She seems distant whenever she speaks. Nevertheless, she conducts the rituals for the Maiden well and even provides assistance to those who ask.[/size][/columns]

[font=Times New Roman][size=5]Veretuntisma[/size]
[size=4]The Witch of Bloodstained Bones[/size]
[size=4]Veretuntisma had originated from the Tangled Woods, born to be exalted to the Shadowbinder. However, she denied this fate bestowed upon her. Once she had matured, she disappeared from her home. Now, she makes herself comfortable within the Cult. She occasionally flits about within the cavern systems, the rattling of bones following after her.
She collects bones, skulls, and any salvageable scraps from dragons and enchants them to her liking. Why are some of them covered in blood...?[/size][/columns]

[size=4]Skelmorildinaeth had once been bounded by the enemy as well. Yet, he was soon released from his shackles by the Maiden of Anguish during her reign of terror. With a rekindled rage and hatred, he, too, spilt blood across the territory. He showed no mercy nor remorse upon the battlefield. Now, he dwells within the cavern systems. While he doesn't worship Andariel as most dragons do, he has respect for her. After all, they are on the same level.
He is aggressive, jumping at dragon's throats for the slightest of mistakes.[/size][/columns]

She was once the Matriarch of the former ruling Order before Andariel's reign of devastation. Now, she has distanced herself away from her past.It's rumored she is kept an eye on in case she ever tries to rebel. She shall be kept on a loose leash for now.
She is a kind soul, despite her intimidating appearance. That is if you don't upset her.[/size][/columns]
