- "Well, son of a starfish."
- — Tempest as she gets hit by a spear thrown by Deathbringer, in Assassin
Template:Charbox Commander Tempest was a female SeaWing and a commander of the SeaWing army in Assassin. To prevent Blister from winning the war easily and thwarting the NightWings' plans, Deathbringer killed Tempest by throwing a MudWing spear into her heart to destabilize Blister's army and wreak havoc. Her death ultimately caused the MudWings to leave Blister's alliance and join Princess Burn's army.
Appearance
Tempest has blue-green scales. She is enormous and powerfully built, as big as Morrowseer, with broad shoulders, gleaming teeth, and a healing burn scar on her neck. She has a long trident strapped to her back[1] and a big, jovial voice[2], as well as a startling booming bark of a laugh[3].
Personality
She is seen as very brave and calm, and even when Deathbringer threw a spear into her chest, she didn't scream or cry out. She only responded by saying, "Well, son of a starfish", before the severity of the wound killed her. Tempest seemed to have a close relationship with King Gill and her third-in-command, Piranha.
She was noted to have a big, jovial voice.

The first mission Deathbringer had on the continent was to kill Commander Tempest. His mother, Quickstrike, told him that she was shifting the war too far into Blister's talons.
Unfortunately, Quickstrike was struck by lightning upon discovering the camp, and Deathbringer had to complete the mission alone. He waited out the night and the morning until the SeaWing army arrived. Among them were Commander Tempest, Gill, Piranha, and about twenty other SeaWings. Deathbringer saw her and was immediately intimidated, thinking, "Holy mother of lava, I'm supposed to kill THAT?[4]". Tempest was talking out a peace strategy along with Gill, as she didn't want the war to drag on any longer.
Tempest asked all the dragons on the beach to lay down their weapons in the sand. The troops followed her command, but Deathbringer managed to snatch a MudWing spear. He threw it and it pierced her heart, giving the unsuspecting Tempest mere moments to live. She uttered her last words, "Well, son of a starfish", and hit the beach "like a slow avalanche[5]." Gill sobbed heavily and Piranha shrieked in rage at the sight of her fallen commander[6].
The dragons on the beach went into a state of panic, especially when they saw the note Deathbringer left behind, which read:
This is what we think about your secret deal with Blister. Stay in the water where you belong! The coast of the Mud Kingdom is ours![7]
This made most dragons suspect that a MudWing had killed Tempest, but the real assassin, Deathbringer, returned home to safety. Unfortunately for him, the armies on the beach found half-dead Quickstrike, and Blister ordered her soldiers to "make her completely dead"[8].
