Viper

Viper- Hunter- The Force of the Wilds

Theme Song

Mate: Courting Click. Feeling is mutual.

Quirk: Completely primal, hates birds with a passion.

Viper is, in one word, feral. Vicious, wild, and murderous, this Wildclaw never speaks- she is not a warrior. She is a hunter. Viper stalks her prey through the darkness, readying her talons until the moment to strike- and often kill- arises. A strange creature, she is also intelligent, understanding the orders she is given. Whether or not she obeys them, however, is another story.

Viper was abandoned at a young age, and was forced to take care of herself for a long time. She never encountered any other dragons, and had no idea what she was. She slowly learned to hunt, drink, and fight on her own as she struggled to survive. Never having another dragon to socialize with, Viper never learned to speak and became less of a dragon and more of a monster. Viper does not have any desires or wants except to continue surviving.

Viper followed Shredder for reasons unknown- some theorized she enjoyed bloodshed, but she never appeared to revel in it like some of the other warriors. It was implied that Shredder simply offered her shelter and things to fulfill her basic desires, but the truth was never revealed and Viper never talks about it. One thing was certain- she was a force to be reckoned with.

She defeated Luna in the Bringer War, and was about to finish her off- sparking Project: Bringer, but Click appeared on the scene and engaged her in battle. Furious at the interruption, Viper screeched at Click, who could do nothing but click back. Viper was daunted- most dragons used words, and while her mind could process them, she was unable to respond. But this was a dragon who did not speak. He was like her. And yet, unlike her, he had a reason to fight. Viper and Click continued to fight, but eventually reached a stalemate. As they fell to the ground, Viper was weak. Click, in a show of compassion, went over and helped her as best as he could. Stunned by this strange Mirror, Viper simply fell asleep in her confusion.

When the war was over, many of Shredder's followers joined the Azeryx Clan. But while some were expected, such as Xyzer and Blight, no one knew how to react when Viper followed Click back to the Clan. While there was no way for her to communicate, she clearly expressed an interest in joining the Clan- she continued to come to the lair's entrance with food that she had caught, offering it as a gift. Hallow eventually relented, but Viper was to be watched very closely. However, Viper disliked this and made a small den outside of the Clan- though she continued to hunt for them constantly. Yurallia eventually gave in and went out to find Viper, going hunting with her. When they returned with plenty of meat for the Clan, Yurallia told Hallow that her fellow Wildclaw wanted to learn about Clan life. Viper wanted to see what made the Mirror she fought in the Bringer War so strong, even if he seemed nothing more than a beast. As a result, Yurallia took her into the hunting squadron.

Viper is close with Yurallia, and tends to stick close to Blight and the other former members of Shredder's group. She is quickly becoming close to Norberta and Snare as well. She has an interesting relationship with Click, and is constantly catching food and leaving small trinkets for him- whether she is flirting with him or not is unknown by the Clan, but Click appears to reciprocate the actions.
