alrighty you know the drill tell me about Swan
Bear with me if any of the below are things you've already told me, I've simply got a lot of people to work with here, and I don't want to loose track!
2: pronouns, gender, and sexuality of your character?
3: where did your oc grow up, any specific part of their kingdom? (For hybrids: which kingdom is your character from?)
4: Does your character have any powers?
5: do you have names for their parents? Hybrids, tell me which parent is/was which tribe
6: tell me about your character's family, any siblings? Perhaps some found family? Who is alive and who is dead?
7: How do you feel about romance for your character? How about death? neither are extremely likely to happen, but I might need to know, depending on how some things turn out.
8: tell me about your character's personality? Any insecurities or fears you can tell me about? Perhaps a fun fact like their favorite food?
9: Tell me a bit about their backstory.
10: Describe your character to me. Additionally, show me any art you have of them- you don't need to repost the art if you don't want to, you can give me a link to the post(s) or reblog the post(s) to tag me (and you may skip this step for any art you've already sent me in an ask or tagged me in, but if you showed me through weblogs of the original WHA post, I would appreciate to see it in a post separate from that so I don't need to link to cluttered posts). For art, let me know if you are comfortable with me reposting it to put in in the character profile (of course, you would be credited) or if you would prefer I just link the art in the post. Picrews and other similar things are welcome as art, though do include the link to the picrew you've used if you still have it
11: anything else you'd like to add?
1. 4 years old (yes I made her younger shhh don't mind me)
2. she/her, cisgender male, currently questioning her sexuality
3. on the very edge of the Diamond Spray Delta (aka on the beach front on that edge)
4. she's a normal sandwing with normal sandwing powers. yeah <3
5. Dad - Bristle
Mom - Aardwolf
Half-Brother - Nile
6. Everyone's alive here. When Swan's egg was laid, her mother had a sudden realization that Bristle wasn't as great of a dragon as she had thought he was, taking herself and her egg far far away to make sure he'd have no part in her son's life. Swan has no knowledge of Nile's existence, and Nile doesn't know she exists, either. So, that could lead to some very fun plot shenanigans.
7. she could have romance maybe. I say put her as a maybe. Death can be a yes, sure
8. defensive and a little pompous, she sees herself as "less violent" and "more mature" than other sandwings cuz she was raised outside of the desert,,,,,, ToT so basically she's racist (THATS A JOKE). She kinda comes off a bit like a dick in an arrogant way, although she really is not that arrogant ("not that arrogant", it's not like she's majorly insecure, she likes herself a solid amount, but not overly too much if that makes sense?), and it's more just her tone + the way she phrases things that makes it come off that way to other dragons. She loves her mom and is very much a lone wolf, probably only having one or two REAL friends. She has a fear of drowning (almost drowned as a young dragonet in the ocean near her home), and she worries herself too much with looking pretty / good when she'd be fine to just be herself. Also, she worries others may not understand how she is a boy, but uses she/her pronouns, so she doesn't explain that much to many dragons (again, just to those she grows overly close to)
9. I kinda already did but sure again just in case-
After Bristle and Deathdefier had Nile, Bristle shipped Nile off to be adopted by some other (better) sandwings. Bristle and Deathdefier swiftly split afterwards, with Bristle deciding to focus more on being a sandwing (hashtag sandwing pride), eventually finding Aardwolf and falling for her.
Once Aardwolf laid Swan's egg, she came quickly to a realization Bristle wasn't a good parental figure. Violent, angry, and very emotionally distant, Aardwolf decided to flee in the night with her egg to a far away place, in order for her child to have a good chance at life.
Aardwolf gave Swan her pretty, but very unfitting name, sorta to flip sandwing standards for names. She didn't want Swan to be stuck in the past of things - stuck to the way of the sandwings, their traditions, their flaws and more. She wanted Swan to discover herself away from it all, and decided to name her after a bird that lives anywhere but the desert - a swan. And that's how Swan was raised.
I bet Swan has a curiousity about her past, no matter how much her mother wants her to stay away from it. She probably wishes she knew more about sandwings than she does, and she probably feels like how the Dragonets of Destiny felt - like they weren't REAL members of their tribes, since they learned nothing of their tribes from anyone. So. Yeah lol
10. Swan is a pale sandwing of semi short stature. She has shiny golden claws / horns, dark purple blood, and some pale grayish tan scales. She enjoys wearing a purple necklace she recieved from her mother, as well as the equivalant of a black choker lol. Here's the art I've made of her:
11. She was born without wings, so she cannot fly. You may think she's insecure about this or something but she honestly doesn't gaf lol. She does take far longer to get around places though-
Also kinda unrelated but girly sorta looks like Blaze in my brain. She's not descended from her or anything but it'd be cool if people were like holy shit that looks like the Legendary Blaze from one trillion years ago LMFAO idk baha but anyways
