Gemstone (Colorchanger the Mindreader)

== Appearance ==
At first glance, Gemstone appears like a normal SilkWing. She has a SilkWing body and head, although her head and legs are stronger and thicker than most SilkWings, more like a SkyWing. Her scales are a pinkish purple, with pale red antenna and horns, which is fairly ordinary colors for a SilkWing. But then you look at her wings. She only has two of them, and they're the size of the small pair of wings of a SilkWing, only allowing her to hover for a few moment or glide a little ways if she gets up enough momentum. Her wrists seem to glow a bright red, not quite the yellow-orange of flamesilk and certainly not the pale silver light of ordinary silk. If she's angry, you can see pale wisps of smoke rising from her nostrils, and when you see that, you can tell she's not a SilkWing. Not a SkyWing either. She's something different. She's a hybrid.
== Personality ==
Gemstone is a very excitable dragon. She's friendly and cares about all the dragons who look up to her. She feels most comfortable when acting and often acts as though she's still playing a part even when she's off the stage. She's actually an introvert, although you wouldn't think so, and although she likes the crowds, they can exhaust her. She's self-concious and insecure, and often feels as though she's letting down all of her fans if she isn't perfect all the time, which is why she always acts like she's acting, since it's one of the only things she understands. She can sometimes seem uncaring, as she forgets that dramatic or emotional moments are part of dragon's real lives as opposed to just a moment in a play. 
== Relationships ==
=== Peak ===
Peak is a SkyWing, and one of Gemstone's adopted fathers. He's friendly and kind. He used to be a healer before he ran away from the Sky Kingdom, and likes helping other explorers, villages plauged with illnesses, or even hurt animals. He's a vegetarian, and when he stops by Sanctuary, he usually buys up almost the entire villages stock of vegetables before he leaves. 
=== Screech Owl ===
Screech Owl is Gemstone's other adopted father, but everyone calls him Screech. He used to be a soldier in Scarlet's army, but when he was ordered to kill Peak for healing enemy soldiers, he ran away. He is somewhat paranoid, and even now that Queen Scarlet is dead, sometimes worries that her soldiers are coming after them. He loves nature, and was the main reason that Peak and Screech decided to keep adventuring even after Gemstone settled down in Sanctuary. He gets uncomfortable when he's around other dragons too long, and doesn't really enjoy their visits to Sanctuary, although he's willing to endure it for Gemstone, who he truly loves.
=== Regal ===
Regal is a RainWing. He's calm and smart, and loves studying. He explored every inch of the rainforest, even making a map now that they have scrolls because of Queen Glory. He was born in the rainforest, during Queen Glory's reign, and is 10 years old. After exploring the rainforest, he headed out to explore the rest of the world, and met with Gemstone, Peak, and Screech on his way. He was the one who told them about the death of Queen Scarlet, and who helped them find Sanctuary. He secretly has a crush on Gemstone, although she has no clue.
=== Lapiz ===
Lapiz is a fellow actor, and a SeaWing. Gemstone used to be a little jealous of her, as her talent seemed to be so effortless, but as she became closer friends with her, she realized that she has to work just as hard as Gemstone does. She is friendly and trained as a therapist before becoming an actor, so she can often help Gemstone to work out her emotions. She is good at pushing down her emotions, and always seems calm and flawless, but she actually works very hard, and is often stressed out, which Gemstone realized once getting to know her. She has a lot of friends, and is the one who introduced Gemstone to the other actors as friends. Gemstone had been avoiding them up until that point, worried that they would realize how scared she was all the time. Gemstone often envies her friends confidence, and wishes she had more of it herself. 
=== Pear ===
Pear is a SandWing who runs the farm near Sanctuary. Pretty much everyone in town has met him, because everyone has to take turns going there and getting food for the scavengers. He's down to business and practical, qualities Gemstone admires. When she's working with him, she can almost forget how stressed she is all the time. She often signs up to help him harvest the crops. She's always exhausted after she does, but in a good way. Nothing ever seems to faze Pear, and he's big and strong.
=== Sage ===
Sage is a female SandWing and is different from Gemstone's other friends in that she often relies on Gemstone for comfort, which Gemstone was never particularly good at. However, she tries her best. Sage is friendly and shy, and doesn't like going to any of Gemstone's darker plays, as they remind her of her time as a soldier. She's fifteen, but acts younger than she is, probably due to how young she was when she saw her first battle.
== History ==
Gemstone was found by her two adopted fathers on the side of the road, when she was just a new-born dragonet. They were afraid that Scarlet's soldiers, who were always chasing them, would find the helpless dragonet, so they took her with them. She grew up with Screech and Peak, always living in fear of Queen Scarlet and never knowing she looked so different from an ordinary SkyWing. She never felt any desire to know who her "real" parents were, apart from a mild curiosity. She knew that Screech and Peak were her real family, even if they weren't related by blood. 
One day, they stopped at Sanctuary to pick up supplies, only for someone to ask if Gemstone was a "SilkWing." They asked what that was, and found out that Scarlet was dead and there was a whole other continent filled with strange dragons. Finally, Gemstone knew why she looked so strange. She found that she liked being around other dragons, and decided to stay in Sanctuary while Peak and Screech Owl left to keep exploring the world.
