Monteverde

THE ALCHEMIST

Place of Origin: The Gladeveins
Backstory: Monteverde was born within the wet and lush confines of the Gladeveins, and is a nature dragon through and through. She always has held a deep respect for the life around her, and is not above manipulating and using whatever she can. Monteverde was orginally born to a clan that was gifted in alchemy, and spent most of her childhood learning the trade of making cures and poisons out of whatever she could find. As per her clans custom, once Monteverde finished her training and came of age, she left her clan to find a new one to serve. It was then that she came across the Clan of the Shaded Wood and was quickly accepted.

Potions and Poultices: Monteverde keeps her home in a shaded den made between a small grove of trees. The trunks of the trees provide support to the heavy leaves, grasses and branches that form the roof of her den. Her status as the clan alchemist is marked in the front by a cluster of faintly glowing charged duneberries. Monteverde keeps stocks of all kinds of fauna within her den, so that if a dragon comes to her asking for a special potion she can quickly mix it up. She also is fond of frequent experimentation, often eating different ingredients herself just to see their effects.
