Jakira

The female would also be interested in joining, but she'd be more focused in learning from your party. Since she's not all that pretty, she stays out of the court and ends up spending her time around the poison makers, herbalists and alchemists of the clan. She's a lot smarter and more cunning then her brother, and she'd fight with a completely different style from his bold, head-on approach. Whether she's fighting with magic or her claws would depend on what dragons are willing to teach her, but she's capable and more independent than her brother when it comes to battle and her companions.

Of course, Kaheru and her entourage are more than welcome to stay in the clan's territory while they hunt. No compensation necessary, as it's just good manners to welcome one's allies - specially in a place like the Fortress of Ends.
