Expanseverse/Clay

Clay is an adult male MudWing and a former Dragonet of Destiny, partially responsible for ending the War of SandWing Succession and additionally as one of the first members of Jade Mountain Academy. There he is the self-defense instructor and the prey center organizer.
==Appearance==
Clay has warm, amber orange scales and vibrant, wood brown overscales. He has a beige underbelly and wings with kind brown eyes. He has a few scars, some on his neck and underbelly, but particularly a still healing limped, burned hind leg.
As a staff of Jade Mountain Academy he wears a necklace tipped with a diamond-shaped jade stone surrounded by 5 beads on each side, each bead resembling the 10 tribes.
==Personality==
Clay has proven to be an excellent mediator overtime. He is understanding of his students and tries to meet conflicted parties at least halfway to ensure both of them are satisfied. He dislikes it when dragons feel the need to resolve arguments by violence, though understands that it may be the only way a dragon knows. 
He is careful and respectful of others, helping these dragons find more peaceful resolutions without rushing them or invalidating them. He knows not everything can be solved without fights, though aims to do the best he can. However just because he dislikes confrontation, doesn't mean he doesn't hope for students to learn to fight to defend themselves or mediate other conflicts, aiming for a balance of the two. Many students hold him as their favorite as he is lenient and kind.
==Biography==
Clay remains apart of the Jade Mountain Academy staff. He has passed down his healer and hall monitor role to new members over the years to ease off pressure and to hone further into his other two roles.
==Relationships==
This does not include barely changed relations.
=== Peril ===
While Clay still holds Peril at a platonic level, he understands her feelings. He believes that it is still earlier to start off a relationship, though is considering it within a couple years or more.
=== Sora & Umber ===
Clay was ecstatic to see their return. Whilst he disliked what Sora did years ago, he understood where she was coming from only wishing she'd tell the group so they could've comforted her.
=== Brunette ===
Clay is thankful for Brunette keeping his siblings safe and helping them re-enter society. He and the queen are on good terms, occasionally getting donations from her for the academy.
=== Hurricane ===
Clay is aware Hurricane still holds animosity for Clay and Sora over the years. He believes that it is best for Hurricane to heal more first than to confront her, though he is unsure if they should interact at all.
