Kidnapped as an egg by the evil Malefor, Cynder was brainwashed and trained in the ways of evil and darkness.

She was a sinister dragon, a harbringer of despair and misery taught to strike fear into the hearts of Malefor's subjects and spread terror far and wide.

She retains her steel bracelets and neck collar, but now they have spikes in them. Her scales are violet purple, her eyes are sky blue and the Brand of the Undead is marked on her forehead. Her head is narrow and flat.
