Centurion Volante Tornpaw

Centurion Volante Tornpaw is a fierce centurion of the Blood Legion. Due to this, the local Flame Legion has put her on their kill list. She can also be found in Drizzlewood Coast, having joined the Dominion.

Biography[edit]

Early years[edit]

Volante Tornpaw, at one point, dated Maverick, a soldier with a large ego. As she climbed the ranks to become a centurion in the Blood Legion, she became a mean officer who could not keep people in her warband.[1]

Personal story[edit]

In 1325 AE, Volante was selected for assassination by the Flame Legion in an attempt to start a war between the High Legions. She was unkind to members of her warband and thus could not keep anyone but Wroda, an undercover Ash Legion spy, and Legionnaires Castor Crushpaw and Septima Swiftpaw.

The legionnaire, who had driven off Ascalonian ghost forces during the attack on Smokestead, was made aware of the Flame Legion assassination plot while undercover at a Flame Legion base. The legionnaire warned Volante of the attack, allowing her and the Blood Legion soldiers to drive off the Flame Legion. After learning that Wroda was an Ash Legion spy, Volante kicked her out of the warband.[1]

The Icebrood Saga[edit]

In 1332 AE, Volante supported Imperator Bangar Ruinbringer of the Blood Legion as he broke away from the other High Legions during the All-Legion Rally. In 1333 AE, she was tasked to guard a cache in Drizzlewood Coast, located in a former human settlement. Despite her efforts, Volante was killed when her cache was assaulted by adventurers and the Pact Commander.
