Strengths: Powerful limbs, intelligent, even-tempered, makes good weapons. Listens well to council, and prefers to limit the actual combat.

*Goal: To protect the coast, and all goodbeasts in need.
Background: Lasair was born in the East, a short distance from the fortress Maelstrom. They were friendly with the leaders of the Estuary Guard, Milren Riverbull and Sybael Waterlion, who acted like aunts to them. Their grandmother, Lady Alyis Willowreed, was the badger lady of Maelstrom, and her grandfather had been a ruler at Maelstrom as well. Lasair thought that they should be getting dreams about being ruler of Maelstrom, but they never did. Instead, visions of a mountain engulfed in flame appeared to them. They talked to their good friends, Captain Filonberry and Captain Ilira, about these visions. Filonberry told them that they were destined for the mountain Salamandastron, the great badger fortress of the southern coast. Although they were apprehensive about leaving home, eventually they did, following the aftermath of the Phoenixclaw incident. They marched to Salamandastron, and became the badger lord.
*Quirks: Lasiar makes sure to treat their prisoners kindly, and offers a banquet to their foes on the sands before and after the conflict. They believe in civil terms of war, but take no nonsense from vermin, and does not let any exploit their kindness.
*Weapons: Armor of Spines (plated armor with sharpened stakes on the back and shoulders, deathclaws (slipped over paws, sharpened blades in the shape of claws)
*Other things that may be important: Lasair’s family had a long history of Badger lords, but, being in the East, they became the rulers of the Maelstrom. Lasair had never felt the estuary’s allure, but had recurring dreams of a mountain of fire. Forgepaw was a name given to Lasair by Captain Renwol Filonberry, the hare ambassador in the Estuary Guard. They speak with a slight Maelstrom accent, as they grew up close to the Eastern Estuary and was good friends with many in the Estuary Guard.
