Crocus (Rainwing-Sandwing)

Crocus belongs to Crocus, so PLEASE DON'T USE HIM WITH OUT PERMISSION! :D (If there is any spelling issues, let me know and I will fix that! I HATE spelling stuff!)
== Personality ==
"I sometimes feel like I am drowning in my sorrows and tears, and I like it. The pressure feels secure, and when in its waters you can't see, hear, or even smell the hatred of others."Crocus is a non-trusting Rainwing/Sandwing/Nightwing who mostly travels, sometimes staying near the Rainwing village or with Levi in the kingdom of the sea. He is a sweet, brave, and protective friend, who is not in any way used to any sort of flattery or affection. The best way to introduce yourself is by finding which way he is going and plant yourself in his path, and then bombard him with complements (Not that this will help, because he doesn't really understand them).
== Appearance ==
"I have had many scars, like this one under my wing from when I fell out of the Rainwing hatchery. But my most painful scar never healed, but instead was an open wound kept open by other dragons."Crocus's scales constantly change color, representing his emotions, as he doesn't care about what they show. He is normally a calm turquoise, or an acid green, representing fear.
He has a poisonous barb and venomous fangs. He has a muscular yet graceful build, being strong yet skinny, due to living on his own in the rain forest and only eating a small amount of berries his whole life. He wears no jewelry, and prefers not to.
== Backstory ==
"Levi, all I have ever known was that my name is Crocus and the world hated part-bloods like me. But then you, quite literally, bounced into my life. You have made me question everything, straight down to my name. I would follow you anywhere, even if you told me I would most certainly die. I would love to come with you to the sea kingdom." - Crocus to Levi.
Crocus was hatched in the Rainwing hatchery, but fell out and suffered serious injury. He was attacked by a rain forest predator, but survived thanks to his Sandwing barb. He survived only by eating berries and hiding, occasionally borrowing scrolls from the Rain forest kingdom and learning everything from history to the exact autonomy of a dragon. He survived seven years of this, sometimes making temporary friends for small entertainment, yet was always left alone and never met anyone who really cared about him. One day, at the age of seven and eight months, he decided to go and leave the Rain forest in search of either his mother or father in the kingdom of sand. On his way out of the rain forest he met a bouncy blue Seawing named Leviathan (Levi for short). He quickly made friends with this strange dragnet and immediately started worrying about her gruesomely dying or a white animus Seawing ripping out his heart."Sometimes I feel like flying across the sea into the sun to avoid questions and explanations, or feel like breaking every bone in my body just to feel physical pain to cover up the mental pain. Tell me, when the water rises, will you fly away and think about survival? Or will you lie down and except your fate? It really is your choice. no one can stop you."They later traveled into the kingdom of sand, where they camped out at an oasis to rest for the night. He then dreamed about Rainwings wanting to take away (presumably)his egg. When avoiding them, the egg fell off the cloud. Both Levi and Crocus lunged after it, with Crocus diving off the cloud and catching it mid-air, with the thought: "It's to late to save me, but maybe I can still save my egg." He woke up to find him and Levi were being kidnapped(dragnet-napped?) by some Skywings. Crocus escaped, but was unable to help Levi. He followed the across the kingdom of sand until he was to tired to fly and the Skywings were far off. He collapsed in the sand, only to find himself near the stronghold were he could search for his father or mother. Unable to bear thinking about what might happen to Levi, he decided to go and try to save her before searching for his father or mother. After luckily finding the Skywings, he followed them to the Skywing palace. After a long wait, he saw the Skywings talk to the queen. They told about how they found her, and how they found a part-blood Rainwing with her, and that they expected him to come try and save her. After a moment of pondering, the queen decided to put her in the arena. Crocus, without thinking, volunteered himself to fight instead of Levi. The queen thought this was cute, and allowed him to fight for his "girlfriend," as she calls her. This causes Levi the start yelling, as well as leaving Crocus speechless. They lead them to towers farther away from each other, with only Crocus's racing thoughts for company."When you see your blood, yet feel no pain, this isn't called being tough. It's called not feeling. This doesn't mean anything good or bad. It just means your depressed. And sometimes that is a good thing. After all, in a way, I am. And do you see anything wrong with me? Besides the obvious." He was then ordered to fight a Sandwing. After some struggle and many near-deaths, Crocus was able to pin the Sandwing and had the choice to snap its neck. He decided not to, so instead cracked the Sandwing's shoulder and knocked him out using his knowledge of dragon autonomy. He then was forced to fight an Icewing, but they refused to fight, which lead to the queen entering the arena to kill them both, particularly Crocus for being a part-blood. She raged at him, spitting insults like "hideous monstrosity" and "sickening creation." This lead to a VERY angry Crocus, who spit venom down her throat in return. They then stole the keys from nearby guards and unlocked their wings, to then fly up and save Levi. However, Skywing soldiers caught them and brought them to an underground dungeon. Crocus was quick to escape, then, after freeing the Icewing he refused to fight, going by the name of Frost. (Sorry is you already got an Icewing named Frost! This is just a good name for a side-character! I didn't steal anything!)"I have seen death, life, and everything beyond. No, I haven't killed or anything like that. I just simply... have experienced it. Physically."They escaped into the mountains, where Frost left them. After that, Crocus and Levi were closer than ever, becoming almost literally inseparable. They eventually made it to the stronghold, where they wanted to speak with the queen, hoping she might have in the least a slim idea who and where his father or mother is. A black Sandwing lead them up to her quarters, where she was sleeping. On the way, he asked them a lot about them, specifically Crocus. After telling them all they've done, The Sandwing reveled himself as Crocus's father. He then had them meet with the queen, who told them Crocus's father, Cacti, was her son. They spent a long time in the Stronghold, Crocus learning about his mother, Blossom, and what happened to her, while Levi and him also explored the stronghold. There was an attack on the stronghold a few days later, where he and Levi hid in the library. There they found an old scroll to the previous queen of Sandwings, with a prophecy on it.
The sea rises,
The rain falls,
The ice melts,
The mud sinks,
When no moon rises,
All of Pyrrhia will sink into shadows.
Four dragons to stop the end,
Four dragons to start the beginning.
After the attack, Levi decided she wanted to go home. She told Crocus, who unexpectedly said he would go with her no matter what. They traveled to the sea kingdom, and was greeted warmly by the queen, Levi's grandmother. However Princess Angelfish, Levi's mother, was not as welcoming. She disliked Crocus for being a part-blood, and feared Levi had feelings for him. She secretly ordered a Seawing named Weed back in hopes of having Levi ditching Crocus when he came. When Levi heard of this, she immediately told Crocus. He started worrying about Weed, thinking Levi wouldn't like him when he came, and thought Weed wouldn't like him in his way, let alone having him sleep beside her almost every night (being cute). He decided it would be best to leave the room, to sleep somewhere else, and possibly going back to maybe look for his mother. She stopped him, making him confess his fears. She told him that Weed was a "squid brain who deserves nothing but frogspawn." The next day, Weed arrived. Levi's mother insisted on leaving Crocus behind, but Levi forced him to come, despite her mother's disapproval. They met, Weed acting as if he still loved Levi, despite having a white Seawing behind him. She retorted, calling him a "Frog-faced blob of camel spit," an insult she learned from Crocus. They sent him and his new girlfriend off, who seemed to be completely bored of the whole situation. They then decided to travel Pyrrhia, in search of a way to full-fill the prophecy and stop the end of Pyrrhia. They met a Icewing/Nightwing named Cornflower and a Mudwing/Skywing named wood, and they became close friends. (I am not done yet! Don't worry!)
== Relationships ==
"Don't get deep with me. That's my job. I am supposed to go 'Death or life, it's all the same. You just need to embrace it.' I am the depressed one, you are the overly happy one who makes me feel better."Levi (Leviathan): She is the only dragon who tries to understand him beyond his family, and she either does a really good job, or completely sucks at it but still makes Crocus feel better. She has extreme feelings for Crocus, who doesn't really understand why. He worries about her, willing to sacrifice his own life for a simple chance at her escaping. He doesn't realize it, but she dreams and fantasizes about him, and she would be willing to do just the same as he does for her. She constantly calls him pretty and cute and amazing, to Crocus's confusion. She struggles with her family line, due to her mother being almost obsessed with keeping the Seawing Royal line "Pure Seawings." She doesn't care that if she does mate with Crocus, it would merge the Seawing and Sandwing Royal blood, and therefore merge there kingdoms, causing lots of pandemonium.
Cacti: Crocus's father is a loving, funny, and understanding dragon. He is an animus, but his parents refuse to tell him that in fear of him losing his mind. He cares deeply for Crocus, and would support him through any choice he makes. He also cares deeply for his mate, Blossom, and was devastated when she had to leave before Crocus hatched.
Blossom: Crocus's mother, working with a secret society that's not so secret since the Great War, was ordered to steal the Obsidian Mirror, because they could use it to spy on anybody, therefore having a head start on certain dragons and would be able to stop any war before it started. She put Crocus's egg in the Rainwing hatchery, in a specific stop so it could hatch in the moonlight. She then brought the Mirror under the mountain, where she lived for almost eight years before Crocus came and found her. She then decoded she needed to see Cacti again, so she left the mountain and headed for the Sandwing palace. She was successful, and lived, in Disney terms, "Happily ever after" with Cacti.
Trout: Trout is fascinated by by part-bloods, so when Crocus arrived he greeted him with respect and asked him many questions, mostly about the scientific relations about scientific part-blood related things. He is also very glad that Crocus actually understands it all, even the stuff that the professional Seawing scientist don't understand. He loves Angelfish, despite her being slightly controlling and not giving him a say in most things, including what to do with Crocus. Despite all that, Trout is a good, "Live your life how you want to, it's your's after all," father who just wants his daughter to be happy, and would be willing to have a part-blood as a son-in-law any day.
The queen of Sandwings: She is Crocus's grandmother, who is a sweet, cute, nice queen, who should be in no way considered old.
The king of Sandwings: As Nightwing, he isn't considered the most fitting king, but is nice, willing, smart, and is glad to have a grandson. Like his mate, he should be in no way considered old.
The queen of Seawings: Considered one of the best Seawing queens in all of Pyrrhia, she is smart and creative, and avoids killing at all costs. She loves her granddaughter very much, and knows and understands how she feels about Crocus, and understands also how Crocus feels about Levi. She also knows the Sandwing queen and king personally. She is in no way considered old.
Princess Angelfish: She despises Crocus, is one way to say it. She thinks part-bloods are "blood contamination" and because Crocus is already a part-blood, she practically hates him. She also fears that her daughter, Leviathan (Levi), has feelings for Crocus and fears the results of that. She would hate a Rainwing-Sandwing-Nightwing-Seawing for a grandson, and would much rather have a pure Seawing for a grandson and a son-in-law.
== Trivia/Interesting Facts ==
"Wolves. One of them tried killing me two seconds after I hatched. It died, but they have always wanted to kill me. Then they congratulate my winning of a fight with disgusting meat. A lot like dragons, in that way."
*Crocus's father, Cacti, is an Animus, Although he doesn't know of his powers.
* Cacti might have accidentally cursed/gifted Crocus's egg, giving him the power to communicate with certain dragons in his dreams, yet his powers are very weak, so his visions are very vague.
*Due to being part Nightwing, and having hatched under one moon, he can see vague images of the future in his dreams, except they aren't clear and generally have odd or mistaken details.
* Crocus is known to have very lucid dreaming, possibly because of his power, which he can't control and is only able to use it when he is sleeping.
* He is easily shocked, mostly because he lived alone in the rain forest believing he is a "hated dragon and that almost everything wanted him dead."
* He and Levi share a strong connection, her being the only dragon he met that is willing to talk to him without insulting him every other second, let alone travel with him, sleep beside him, and complement him ever other second.
*Cacti is actually more Nightwing than he is Sandwing, making Crocus 50% Rainwing, 37.5% Nightwing, and 12.5% Sandwing. Mathematically.
*Crocus is considered a tribrid, except the Nightwing part of him doesn't show besides the star pattern under his wings.
*Crocus has the tendency to cover his head with his wings when he is feeling hated or feels alone in a crowd, and in severe cases turns grey and rolls up into a literal ball.
