"See, it's- it's probably fine. Everything in place. Everyone's ready, no mistakes, and all that- all that, you know? But a dragon can't help but wonder, a lot of the time, a lot of wondering, you understand...?" - Glasswing

AppearanceGlasswing is a lanky SilkWing, with disputed rumours of HiveWing ancestry. Her scales are a shimmering grass-green, with darker, murkier-looking olive overscales lined with a brighter green, and orange-yellow spots, going down her body and legs. Her underbelly is a vivid yellow-orange colour. However, these scales aren't the most 'important' part. Glasswing is named for her wings - the membrane is highly translucent. There is a distinct orange-red tint to them, but they are certainly more transparent than the average SilkWing, more comparable to a HiveWing. The effect is stunning in the light, whether sunlight or blazesilk.
Glasswing's ears are somewhat long, and she has two pairs of orange-yellow stud earrings, each containing a small bit of skyfire. The skyfire, though of slightly different composition than the pyrrhian type, does still work; however, Pantalans are currently unaware of skyfire's powers, considering its origins to be of more interest than its possible effects. Glasswing herself mainly thinks they match her eyes, which are a fiery orange colour.
Glasswing's horns are long, twisty, and dark, with a red tinge to them. Her antennae are orange like her underbelly, and somewhat crumpled, though not to the point of injury. Her claws are strong, deft, and prone to suddenly appearing around your own. Notably, her claws are also kept quite curved, suited to, perhaps, climbing through trees (not that she's ever done so!), or across the ceiling of a Hive (she's absolutely done so).
She has various scars (a few of which are from mishaps in her work), and frequently a few new scratches, along with nicks in her wings or horns. Her voice is somewhat deep, and frequently raspy, though quite soothing.
Overall, Glasswing is a unique, recognizable dragon, whether she wants to be or not.
Personality
Glasswing is a rather friendly, energetic dragon, if sometimes harsh-sounding when among her peers. She is interested in new things and new people, and seems to always have time for a new experience. Many have described her as charismatic and extroverted, with excellent bedside manner, though occasionally rather loud when she knows she can be. She does, however, tend to tone this energy down around unfamiliar dragons, being highly experienced in this kind of acting.
Similarly, once she's gotten a goal, Glasswing will go through with it no matter what. She is a very dedicated dragon, often bouncing back after failure. Loss (or near-loss) of life would appear to be an exception to this, however - she has a history of periods of depression (and mania) after such events.
Glasswing can be sneaky when she wants to be. She isn't purely a thief, (what, you're labelling her like that?) but it would definitely seem that she has that potential. Said in some circles to have quick talons, and not just because of how good she is at climbing. Her dexterity would benefit her in a surgical setting, though she would never take such a job.
Though all in all a warm, personable dragon, she has a tendency to hold grudges for life. She is also seen as picky when it comes to food, hating the texture of many common fruits, while finding the texture of meat better than many might expect. This tends to make her somewhat 'strange' to other SilkWings, and just encourages the rumours that she's part HiveWing...
