Dax Paragon
Mr. Wilnett, leader of the criminal guild known as the Silver Coins, leaned his back against the stone alley wall. Darkness enveloped him, and his low hat helped to further shadow his face. The contact he was meeting, a weaselly young man referred to as Trout, shuffled before him.
“I think I can leave before dawn,” Trout stammered, trying for a glare but not succeeding. “I can get out of town and my debt will be forgotten.”
“Are you certain no one knows?” Mr. Wilnett said calmly. He'd dealt with enough cowards to be unfazed by their mewling.
“Only one person. Dax Paragon forged my financial statements. He-”
Mr. Wilnett cut him off with a raised hand. “Then you are no longer a free man. If Dax Paragon knows, it should be considered that everyone knows.”
Trout huffed. “Dax is barely older than me. He does not frighten me.”
“It would be unwise of you to cross Dax Paragon. He has a network of powerful people at his disposal. One word from him, and you'll never be seen again.” Dax knew nothing but a life of luxury since the time he was born. Growing up in a mansion overflowing with the finest of items, his wealthy parents were business and landowners that dominated the competition in the city of Lyveria. Their business was called Paragon Enterprises. An only child, Dax was often left to his own devices as his parents ran their enterprise. Often it felt like the entire mansion was his to do with as he pleased.
When he became old enough, Dax was given his large inheritance to begin his own sect of his family's business, which he called Dax's Consultations. He would be called upon by the wealthy, the greedy, and the powerful to consult for them. He would analyze their business practices, their competition, and provide advice. He became renowned for his success, and was thought of as the “secret ingredient” to any tycoon's business. And because of this, Dax soon became immersed in a world of spoils. He lived a fast life of luxury, of gold, and of stabbing anyone in the back that tried to cross him. Often literally.
When the Chaos Legion turned their eye on Dax, he looked right back and was intrigued. He saw new power that he hadn't yet known. He communicated with their intermediaries until the day the Chaos Legion invaded the Splinterlands. Dax was then graced with an audience before Silus of the Rift himself. During this conversation, Dax proved himself well-informed, cunning, and ambitious. He was given the opportunity to be an advisor for the most powerful person he'd ever come across. Dax now serves closely at Silus' side, advising him on strategies to control the Splinterlands.
