Evanescence · She/her · RainWing · Assassin · 5236 AS(Possible volume warning!)
 Your heart pounds as you run through the labyrinth of alleyways in the Sky Kingdom's biggest city. You can't fly out, or she'll be on you in a matter of seconds, like flies to a honey pot. You duck past a fruit vendor's cart and peer out from behind it. There- you see her, gray and green scales like a promise of death and she nimbly navigates through the throng of dragons gathered in the marketplace. She looks up and her glittering dark cyan eyes meet yours. Is that the best you can do? they seem to challenge. Cursing, you quickly dart away into a nearby alleyway- a fatal mistake.The alleyway is a dead end, and you panic as her shadow flits over you. Swallowing, you turn around and stare her in the face. "Why are you doing this?" You ask, putting up a brave face, "I know we've had a rocky relationship, but I thought you had some once of loyalty in your blood!" The dragoness chuckles, running one her metal-tipped claws, undoubtedly filled with a poison that will kill you on contact, across your jawbone. "Oh, don't you know? An assassin's loyalties are always in doubt," she murmurs, her eyes calm and calculating. You think you see a flash of... something in the deep pools of her eyes, something like sorrow. Regret. But whatever it is, it's gone as soon as it's there. Quick as a snake, she slides a knife out a sheath you hadn't even noticed on her leg and jabs it through your gut. Your bloodshot eyes slide shut, pain and whatever venom that was on the knife coursing through your veins, and just before you fade away, she whispers in your ear, "but her heart never wavers." 
How can you see into my eyes, like open doors? Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb

 Appearance
Scales as dark as coals with mossy green under scales and highlights, Evanescence is fairly dull for a RainWing. Hatched with a snout deformation that prevented her from sleeping longer than a few hours at a time (similar to Chameleon's but not as detrimental) Evanescence can shift the colors on only her frill and wing membranes. she can also only stay invisible for short periods of time, needing to recharge after using it. <Div>
Evanescence wears a silver chain link necklace with a black pouch filled with throwing weapons (i.e. throwing stars, poisoned darts, etc.), a small black chrome hoop earring, two small daggers strapped to her left thigh and right ankle, and each of her claws have a small metal tip, each filled a different type of poison.
Personality
Ever since she was a young dragonet, learning to fly and grow under the careful watch of her mother, Graceful, Evanescence has been slightly reckless and known to hold a grudge. She was always the best of her class and last one to admit she needed help. However rough around the edges she was, she was a mostly kind soul who lived for her friends and family. After her mother was murdered in front of her and she was forced out of the RainWing Kingdom, she was heartbroken, cold, and distanced. An anger burned, deep in her soul, and she swore revenge on the NightWings. <Br> Though she's only five, many dragons forget that she's still a fairly young dragonet, carrying herself with a maturity only gained by losing one's innocence. 
Without a soul My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold Until you find it there and lead it back home
History
Hatched under two full moons deep in the heart of the rainforest, a dragonet hatched with a snout deformity common in her family, which, in her case, made her unable to shift her scales. She was only able stay camouflaged for minutes, and she had to charge and recharge her scales before camouflaging. Her mother, Graceful, loved her nevertheless. Her life was good, until that fateful day when the NightWings rose up against the RainWings.Led by a bloodthirsty descendant of Fierceteeth and Bigtail, a dragoness named Heiress, the NightWings, save for a few, flew into the heart of the Rainforest, killing RainWings, destroying their homes, and taking them prisoner. Evanescence was in the thick of it, taking a walk with her mother through the hanging bridges of the RainWing village. When they heard commotion in front of them, Graceful and Evanescence fled. However, Graceful, being on of Queen Captivating's top advisors, was high on the list of NightWing targets. They caught up to the pair and Heiress, the self proclaimed leader of the NightWings, brutally murdered Graceful after she put up quite a fight, scarring Heiress' face with her venom. The NightWing's plan was to enslave Evanescence, who watched her mother's death silently, tears streaming from her eyes. The NightWing who grabbed her and dragged her over a pile of chained RainWings let her go, bidding her to fly fast and far. Fortunately, she escaped and came across a tavern, deep in the heart of the Mud Kingdom. She met a kind barkeep, an old MudWing/SkyWing hybrid named Heron. He provided a room for Evanescence, along with directions to an orphanage that would take her in. She refused, though she did accept the slightly spiked glass of warm milk he offered. She set out the next and happened upon an assassin. Hugely built yet silent as a mouse, the SeaWing/SkyWing hybrid Shoal saw potential in her and took her in, training her in poison and blades. She continued visiting the tavern and became fast friends with Heron. Shoal and Evanescence's relationship was frosty at best, Shoal using Evanescence to do his dirty work, and she knew it. But when an opportunity came up to help him create a coalition of assassins under his rule, Evanescence, though she was a mere five years, couldn't say no. She helped him build it up, and he called his Order of Assassins, headed by himself and based in the MudWing town where Evanescence first arrived after leaving the rainforest. Evanescence quickly distinguished herself from the rest of his students, out flying even the fastest of SkyWings and outsmarting even the smartest of IceWings. One day, while taking a walk, Evanescence witnessed a group of NightWings trying to capture a runaway RainWing. She barreled in headfirst and ended up getting captured herself. <Br>While captured, she fell in love, hesitantly, with a NightWing named Shadowslayer. When she escaped, aided by a few other RainWings, he followed her, desperate for her love. He followed her back to the town and witnessed her breaking things off with Shoal. Their relationship was strained after Shadowslayer revealed himself, Evanescence sure that the NightWings had sent him to bring her back. However, when the NightWings came and brought Shadowslayer back, Evanescence fought with tooth and claw as well as blades and poison to free him. She ended up being too late and was just in time to witness his execution. Devastated, Evanescence slaughtered as many NightWings as she could before fleeing, to free her tribe.After discovering that Shoal had helped in the killing of Shadowslayer, she killed Shoal and took control of his Order, and now lives as an assassin-for-hire in the MudWing town with her friend Ocelot, who is another escaped RainWing who spent years looking for her, believing Evanescence to be alive.

Sobek: NegativeThough Shoal taught Evanescence everything she knows, their relationship is frosty at best. Shoal is constantly underselling Evanescence and she knows it. 
Shadowslayer: Positive Shadowslayer is Evanescence's true love. However, she was late in accepting him and he died tragically in her talons before they were able to live happily ever after. He is one of the few dragons whom she lets call her 'Ness'.
Heron: Positive Heron is the head barkeep and owner of The Copper Raven Tavern in Mudskip, an up and coming MudWing town on the northern border of the Mud Kingdom. He's shown kindness to Evanescence when no one else had, providing her free drinks and offering her lodging. He is one of the few dragons whom she lets call her 'Ness'.
Ocelot: Positive Ocelot is Evanescence's best friend. She had escaped the rainforest a few years after Evanescence and traveled the continent looking for her. They live together, platonically, though Ocelot wishes that Evanescence would give up on revenge and disband the Order. She is one of the few dragons whom she lets call her 'Ness'.
Now that I know what I'm without You can't just leave me Breathe into me and make me real Bring me to life
Trivia

*One of her favorite weapons is a neurotoxin she invented, made from doused pitou feathers.
