'''Commander Tempest''' was a [[SeaWings|SeaWing]] commander in [[Princess Blister|Blister]]'s army. She appeared in ''[[Assassin]], ''and seemed to have a close relationship to [[King Gill]] and her third-in-command, [[Piranha]]. She was enormous, described to be as big as [[Morrowseer]], and she carried a trident as big as [[Deathbringer]] himself. To avoid [[Blister]] from winning the war easily and thwarting he [[NightWings]]' plans, [[Deathbringer]] kills Tempest.


She was described as having a booming voice and loud barks of laughter that startled  the nearby gulls<ref>''[[Assassin]]'', page 22</ref>. Tempest was also mentioned as having a large scar across her face.
