== Biography ==
Ember was a single egg to a pair of SkyWings named Twister (mother) and Sear (father). His parents were traditional and planned to have an ordinary life where they expected their dragonet to grow up to be successful with a stable job and relationship, eventually having eggs. As a baby dragonet, Ember’s parents already started teaching him how to read, do math, and hunt. Ember was often overloaded with work and didn’t get a lot of free time.
As a dragonet, Ember started mandatory SkyWing school in a local SkyWing Academy. Ember wanted to make friends but his parents pushed aside the idea, telling their son that he should focus only on his studies. Despite this, Ember did become friends with a SkyWing named Smoke. The two met in their science class and Smoke was known to be a troublemaker who could tell just by looking that Ember was being oppressed by his parents' want for him to have a successful future. Ember would run off with Smoke, making his parents upset. They tried to stop him from hanging out with Smoke but Ember didn’t care about what they said. Eventually, Ember’s parents had enough and used their knowledge of Ember’s friend to get Smoke expelled for doing reckless things. Smoke’s parents moved him out of Ember’s city and Ember never saw his friend again. Ember became resentful of his parents and became more defiant toward them and their plans for him.
Just as Ember became an adult, a war started in the Sky Kingdom and young SkyWing adults were being drafted to fight. Ember was one of those dragons. Ember had a hatred toward others deciding what his life would be like so he bailed, leaving his city and moving out of the kingdom. He hides his identity behind black armor and became nocturnal, moving around at night. He often spends time in NightWing and SandWing cities as they are the most frequently active at night beside the ones he can’t visit in the Ice and Sea Kingdoms. As Ember was exploring a city in the Sand Kingdom, he happened upon a SkyWing that looked vaguely familiar. Upon closer inspection, Ember realized that it was his old friend Smoke, now a lone wanderer as well. Although his personality was a bit different, Smoke was still his old self and he didn’t have any grudge against Ember for what happened. The two rekindled their friendship and became wandering buddies.
== Relationships ==
=== Sear ===
Ember is resentful toward his father. He hated how he tried to tell him how to live his life and how he planned out everything for him. Ember sometimes fought back against his father when Sear would yell at him. Ember wouldn’t feel bad though and just ignore his father afterward. Ember doesn’t miss his father but he sometimes wonders what he thinks of him after he left.
=== Smoke ===
Ember was close friends with Smoke when the two were dragonets. They met in science class at their academy and Ember was glad that there was a dragon who understood him and encouraged him to be himself. The two would get in trouble together which would eventually lead to Ember’s parents forcing Smoke to leave the city. Ember resented his parents for this and cried out of loneliness after Smoke left. As he grew up, Ember would think about Smoke and wonder if his friend was out there doing something extraordinary. While in a SandWing city one night, Ember ran into Smoke and the two rekindled their friendship quickly. They became partners in crime again and traveled together. After weeks of being back with Smoke, Ember felt like he was a little too happy to see Smoke again but would push away the idea that he saw Smoke as anything more than a friend. Ember’s feelings never went away though and he has yet to tell Smoke how he feels.
=== Twister ===
Ember is resentful toward his mother. He hated how she tried to tell him how to live his life and how she planned out everything for him. Despite Twister often getting upset at Ember, Ember never fought back against his mom as she was smaller than him and he would feel bad for hurting her. Ember doesn’t miss his mother but he sometimes wonders what she thinks of him after he left.
