'''Hazon Dak'ir''' held the rank of [[Veteran Sergeant]] in the Third Company of the [[Salamanders]] [[Chapter]]. Unlike other Salamanders he came from Ignea instead of one of the seven Sanctuary Cities. Although constantly the target of [[Tsu'Gan]]'s loathing, Dak'ir never rose to his fellow Veteran Sergeant's baiting. Instead, he always chose to avoid confrontation with the headstrong Sergeant. He was later removed from his position for showing unusually late [[psychic]] activity, thus leaving command of his squad (in complete confidence) to his closest friend [[Ba'ken]]. It was also revealed to [[Chapter Master]] [[Tu'Shan]] that Dak'ir was mentioned in an ancient prophecy that could either be the doom or salvation of the [[Chapter]]. For this, Dak'ir would undergo trials to be trained by [[Librarian]] [[Pyriel]].
==Training==
Dak'ir trained in a pyre chamber below [[Mount Deathfire]] with Librarian Pyriel and while doing so he unleashed a great inferno that nearly overwhelmed Pyriel. [[Chief Librarian]] [[Vel'cona]] aided Pyriel and pushing back the inferno to its source, Dak'ir. Dak'ir was unconscious with his armor having burnt away. Following this Vel'cona reflected on the passage in the [[Tome of Fire]] possibly referring to Dak'ir as a saviour or destroyer. Vel'cona then warns that Pyriel must kill Dak'ir if he goes out of control again.
