Catherine: Female, age 189. A half dragon born between a dragon that surrendered during the Dragon War and a Pandemonian. However, as she grew up under the protection of the mage society she is not familiar with her parents. She has a great interest in various creatures of Pandemonium, but after her coworkers Thewlis and Linda went missing, she's been mostly investigating Beasts on her own. As she is not a pureblood she cannot transform into a dragon form, but she is more than capable of handling herself with her oustanding magical and physical aptitudes.
Dragons: originally dragons are from the planet Drakvalt, the home planet of Bakal the Dragon King. By Hilder's temptation of the Life Water, Bakal moved to Pandemonium all on his own and any dragon or dragonoids (humanoid reptilian creatures) that can be found on Arad or Pandemonium are Bakal's creations or their descendents. After Bakal lost in the Dragon War, where he tried to face the rest of the Apostles and conquer Pandemonium, he retreated to the Empyrean and created more dragons to serve him. Dragons on Arad all came down from Empyrean with Berserk Dragon Hismar to conquer the continent, but after Hismar was slain by Ozma and Kazan most of the remaining dragons were hunted down for their scales or to be slaves of the De Los empire. Few dragons remain on Arad, most now acting as peacekeepers by protecting small villages where they live in seclusion or fighting against the empire.
