✨Luminosity✨

Note: Luminosity my main dragonsona, that is based off of my personality and vaguely based on my past and my goals for the future.
Luminosity (formerly known as Moth), is an adult transmasculine SilkWing-NightWing hybrid who resides in the LeafSilk Commonwealth alongside their friend Deathwatcher. Hatching under faint light of a full moon, Luminosity hatched with the ability to sense other's emotions. He also hatched as a moonsilk, which is believed to come from the full moon too. He attended and graduated from Beetle Lake Academy, and currently serves as a member on the LeafSilk Assembly with a secondary job as an archivist.
==Description == 
Luminosity is tiny, smaller than the average SilkWing, with a sharp build which has a slight chubbiness to it. His scales are a warm, dark purple that is described as the color of melted galaxies and orchids. Luminosity's scales are also iridescent, like aquamarines, citrines and moonstones. Their underscales are a rosy, red-purple shade, with their snout and sharp, plated scales being dark, royal purple. They have icy blue highlights, with their topscales having a similar icy tint. They also have pale blue teardrop scales behind their almond shaped eyes. Luminosity's eyes are bright gold in color, with a dark sclera, and darker, rusty colored gold speckles on his horns, snout, talons and spine. Their wings are large, but are typically folded, and look as if a night storm was swallowing up twilight, with white and off-white speckles that vaguely resemble the stars that NightWings typically have.
Their claws are a grayish color and appear as if they are chewed on. They often appear to be twitching, fidgeting or staring into space. Luminosity often wears a flat expression, with eye bags, although it is very easy to make them laugh or smile. He occasionally wears leather pouches to keep their things in, and also has a pair of silver and skyfire glasses which they almost never wear. Most of Luminosity's belongings, and sometimes Luminosity themself, are covered in cat fur.
==Personality==
Luminosity is silly goofy, impulsive, passionate, empathetic and easily distracted. They are autistic, and mind-readers describe their mind as different from other dragons. Their inner monologue is loud and detailed, and they often imagine things in art, music or memories at the same time. Luminosity likes being funny, and has a mixed sense of humor, although sometimes they may be oblivious or uninterested in other's jokes. Many find their mannerisms amusing, and Luminosity frequently says out-of-pocket things. 
Luminosity is either unobservant, or observant while looking unobservant. He picks up on and pays attention to details that others may not, and oftentimes can recite them. Other things, such as things immediately going on around them, they might not pick up on right away. Luminosity is also impulsive, saying things and sometimes making important decisions while not thinking it through. Despite this, Luminosity does like researching and speaking with their peers before deciding on something important that will affect others. 
Luminosity, if they feel connected to a topic or event, will become very passionate about it. Many describe his passion as pouring out their heart into what he cares about and trying to "make something right" even if he can't impact the final result. They also speak boldly and clearly about what he cares about and often hyperfixates on said topic, being able to recite any information he remembers and being able to rally others and getting them to care, too. If someone questions or judges Luminosity's passion, they will become very defensive and ready to debate. 
Unless they aren't hyperfixated on anything at all, Luminosity is also easily distracted with their train of thought easily being derailed. When they speak, they speak quickly, although sometimes the words won't come out or form, and he stops speaking for a period of time before continuing. Luminosity is also easily bored and comes over-prepared when he suspects that an event might bore him. Luminosity hates being bored. Luminosity also likes to travel, and hates having a super repetitive routine.
Luminosity is also anxious, worried, shy and ambiverted. They often worry about things, oftentimes future events; From Doctor's appointments, voting on a bill, or even just a simple gathering. His anxiety typically clouds their excitement or other emotions, which they dislike about themselves. They also had a large fear of being judged as a dragonet, although they care less about what people think and are much more confident now. Despite this, they do have the fear of judgement hanging around in the back of their mind. 
Luminosity is also typically shy and avoids new dragons or new events most days, typically preferring not to interact socially unless there is a given reason. As an ambivert, they exhibit both traits of an introvert and extrovert. Luminosity also likes being left alone, unless they are with their friends or doing their job. However, some days they are very talkative and social, and love talking to everyone around them - It really depends on the day. When they are talkative and in an active environment, they get overstimulated easily, and will hit the limit and go non-verbal. Luminosity easily gets overwhelmed, and when they do, they shut down and nearly incapable of doing anything.

|-|Pre-Hatching=
Luminosity's parents met through a mutual friend. The two quickly fell in love at a young age and had Luminosity's egg not long after. They planned to get married after they hatched, and they wanted to have a traditional NightWing family, however, they did not want their future dragonets to have mind-reading or prophecy powers. Shortly before Luminosity hatched, they decided to name Luminosity "Moth", because Luminosity's mother saw a moth and decided it was a simple and basic name since they had no other name for them.
The night Luminosity hatched, it was a full moon, and their parents decided to keep the egg inside, so it wasn't exposed to the moonlight. However, when moonlight crept through the window, and Luminosity's egg developed a silver sheen, their parents were worried. However, their dragonet hatched, and they were overjoyed.
|-|Dragonethood=
Luminosity (Then named Moth) hatched to Stormwatcher of the NightWings and Copper of the SilkWings. Their SilkWing genetics were dominant, which was unusual, since Stormwatcher was the mother, and Copper was the father. However, Luminosity was unmistakably the dragonet of their parents. Their parents also planned for more dragonets, and even when Luminosity was only a few days old, spent time planning for their future dragonets instead.
Luminosity's parents broke up for reasons that were always kept secret from Luminosity and Luminosity only. But, given how they were treated, Luminosity was no doubtably the reason why. At a few months old, his mother took him and moved in with her mother (Luminosity's grandmother) and decided to stay there for a few more months before moving out once more, with her new love interest, Omenseeker. Luminosity was then put into a school with Pantalans that lived in the Night Queendom.
Luminosity often had trouble in school with sitting still, being quiet and doing what they were supposed to with assignments, often misinterpreting them and being unable to contain any energy. Omenseeker especially saw Luminosity as a shame and a burden because of this, even though he was only a year old. For nearly as long as Luminosity could remember, Omenseeker tormented them and forced them to do unnecessary work for school and yelled at them for simply acting like a dragonet.
Around the age of two, Luminosity's mother and unofficial stepfather moved to the suburbs of Renewal; The largest NightWing city, and a city regarded for its overly prideful and stuck-up NightWing population who see themselves as superior. Stormwatcher and Omenseeker were fully aware that because of this, and the culture, that Luminosity would face discrimination for being a hybrid and not being “normal”, and right they were.
At school, Luminosity’s food was constantly taken, leaving them hungry, and their wingbuds were constantly jabbed at, antennae pulled, head dunked in water, being thrown around easily and their schoolwork and projects burned. Meanwhile, Luminosity’s parents only interacted with them unless it was basic needs or something negative. Then, their parents had another dragonet; Nightlight, named for being the light of their life. Nightlight from the egg was taken care of, nurtured and given much more love than Luminosity was given.
Stormwatcher constantly compared Luminosity to the future of Nightlight, often pitting her first hatched dragonet against her other dragonet in the egg. A year after Nightlight hatched, when Luminosity was around four, they had another egg, which they would name Wildstrike. At school, Luminosity's situation wasn't much better. Luminosity was harassed and bullied by everyone, constantly dehumanized (or, dedragonized in this case), assaulted in many ways, even, and constantly the victim of being attacked or thrown into solitary confinement for fun.
The teachers and staff at the school never bothered to step in, and indirectly encouraged this environment as well. However, Luminosity encountered and made a friend who was also picked on as well for being albino, named Whitetalon.
This friend, however, was a part of a nasty group of friends who were notorious around the school for being cruel to others. The “leader” of this friend group happened to be Whitetalon’s cousin, and from there, they would target Luminosity. Luminosity, at the same time, also had drama with a peculiar group of dragons they considered their friends at one point because of their similar weirdness.
The weird group consisted of a few dragons, most notably Secrettaker, Blueblood and Scrollhunter, who have known Luminosity since they started school in Renewal. Both Secrettaker and Blueblood would team up with Whitetalon’s group to make Luminosity miserable. They found it amusing to manipulate Luminosity into thinking that they were actually his friends, just to turn him away and get them to "bully themself".
If Luminosity had a problem with them, they would throw a fit and snitch on him for no apparent reason, resulting in Luminosity being punished, forced to apologize, and thrown in solitary confinement. Their parents would also punish them accordingly and tell him that Nightlight and Wildstrike would never do this when they are older. The two groups eventually got bored of Luminosity and convinced them that they were worthless and unloved.
Luminosity, given their situations at both home and school, agreed, but begged them to stop tormenting them. As a result, they dunked icy water on them which gave them the idea to throw themselves in a freezing lake. Before they did, though, Luminosity told the two groups how they felt. So, in the evening one day in winter, Luminosity had thrown themselves in the lake in an attempt to drown themselves before being pulled out and revived. 
Luminosity's parents, even their father and future stepmother who they visited once a year, came to the Night Queendom and saw Luminosity as a shame, and it made them look bad. They were far from concerned about Luminosity's well-being, and they, alongside Luminosity's school, told them that "dragonets were naturally stupid", so Luminosity didn't feel this way, and their main bullies didn't mean it or understand what they did was wrong.
Luminosity was around five years old when this happened, after they started secondary school, and their home life got progressively worse. Stormwatcher didn't even bother with Luminosity whatsoever and favored Wildstrike and Nightlight, and coddled Wildstrike's feral, animal-like behavior. The following years of secondary school weren't that good either. Luminosity, despite always hating their name “Moth”, started to go by “Luminosity”.
Stormwatcher and Omenseeker were vastly offended, but still allowed Luminosity to visit their other parents. Around this time, even though Luminosity had thoughts like this before over the years, they started to dislike the fact they hatched as a female, and had feminine things attached to them. They assumed something was wrong with them, and underwent metamorphosis, before being taken back to their mother’s in the cocoon.
Their cocoon was damaged during the journey, and Wildstrike thought it would be fun to stop around and even breathe fire on the cocoon at times, leaving Luminosity with permanent wing deformities. Around this time as well, Luminosity had knee pain that was constant as well. After metamorphosis and their temporary schooling on Pantala and how well they were doing, discussions of Luminosity starting school on Pantala were underway.
While life at school kept declining over the next year, Luminosity still knew Blueblood, Scrollhunter and Whitetalon, but rarely interacted with them. Two new dragons took the floor for Luminosity’s hell at the Renewal school, one of which being Mythbreaker, and another being a brief friend. Mythbreaker, while being a smaller bully in the past, had become much more outgoing and arrogant over the years, being notorious in the school.
One of the things Mythbreaker had done to Luminosity in particular, was trying to slice his new wings so they could never fly. This failed, of course, but Mythbreaker was never punished and their parents suspected they did it to himself. Luminosity’s brief friend defended Luminosity against dragons like Mythbreaker before, however, eventually started to bully and disagree with Luminosity as well, and started to spread rumors.
When everyone graduated around the age of seven, Luminosity was not someone who was able to walk on stage because the school didn’t want everyone to see Luminosity. However, that very summer, they approved of Luminosity going to attend a new school; Beetle Lake Academy., as well as moving in with their father. Painted Lady helped Luminosity apply, although they needed Stormwatcher's permission, and Stormwatcher was pretty sour about the whole "Luminosity going to an intertribal school" thing. Luminosity, during this big change, also started to talk to figures like Painted Lady about their thoughts on gender and decided to present more masculinely before the school year started.
|-|Beetle Lake Academy=
Luminosity was excited that they were going to attend Beetle Lake Academy. However, as summer came to an end, Luminosity became increasingly scared of starting school at Beetle Lake. On the first day, Painted Lady flew with Luminosity to Beetle Lake, a two-and-a-half-hour flight from Bluebottle Hive. Upon arriving there, Luminosity never realized how big the academy was and how diverse it was.
Luminosity was very stiff and uneasy on the first day, confused about the layout of the island and thought they would never get it or make friends. Everything was different, but it was a new start. Luminosity met a close friend on the first day, and shared a treat at the end of the day and went to their dorms with pride. Luminosity was assigned this friend, named Heron, as a clawmate.
However, Luminosity never had friends, and they quickly gained friends essentially every day. Because of this, Luminosity didn't know how to properly balance their social life and academic life, which caused their grades to drop. Their father became enraged, and ever since the second month has threatened to send Luminosity back to the Night Queendom up until the day they graduated. Painted Lady, on the other hand, was much more sympathetic and understanding, although she didn't quite get everything and constantly bothered Luminosity about this and that as well. Again, up until the day they graduated.
Also, within the first few months, Luminosity met a lifelong friend named Deathwatcher. Deathwatcher was non-binary, and even though Luminosity spent their life thinking about their gender and having gender dysphoria, never questioned their gender identity openly (or at all without suppressing it) and assumed something was wrong with them mostly until Deathwatcher came into the picture. Deathwatcher and Luminosity had a lot in common, and a joke started saying that they were the same dragon, even though Deathwatcher was two years older and a HiveWing-NightWing hybrid.
The first two years went great for Luminosity, aside from grades in the first year and part of the second. Luminosity started to openly identify as trans in school (They had gone by Luminosity before they openly came out to their peers) and gained support and acceptance. They even started having these talks with Painted Lady, although Painted Lady turned around and told their father about the gender questioning, which he was not happy about.
Luminosity and Copper argued, especially over the summer when Luminosity was home, but Luminosity spent as much time at the academy as possible. After getting their grades up and joining a program allowing them to skip a year, alongside some of their friends, Heron and Megacryometeor. Deathwatcher, unfortunately, was transferred to Dragontail Academy to let room for future students of Beetle Lake. Deathwatcher and Luminosity still remained in contact, and Luminosity often relayed messages to Deathwatcher from other Beetle Lake friends.
In the third year, talks of removing humans and defunding the Pantalan intertribal academies and implementing a strict rule about one member of each tribe being in a wing(let) became regular conversations in the academy; Beetle Lake had no such rule, and had many dragons per wing and were not limited to the tribes, and these decisions for defunding and changing the academy structure would deeply affect Beetle Lake and its students.
The Ministry of Intertribal Schools were pretty divided on this idea; Some argued it would bring true diversity and keep the schools at a near-equal population, while others thought it would damage the communities and add some divide or barrier among them. So, Luminosity got a group of students from multiple schools, with the help of Deathwatcher and dragons she knew that went to Nightshade Academy, they wrote a letter expressing their concerns about these changes.
Even though Luminosity was in the Scorpion Wing, they became aware of the ability to run for the student representative in the Ministry of Intertribal Schools, while only students in the Clear and Beetle Wings could run. They spent much of the rest of their time in the Scorpion Wing and the Clear Wing preparing to run.
Because of these efforts, Luminosity became more connected with students from other academies and being more involved with the ongoings of said academies. Around the time that the nominations had started for the student representative, Luminosity barely made the cut because their grades were merely passing. However, after being on the ballot, Luminosity was the most popular choice among them. They became the student representative of the Ministry of Intertribal Schools in their Beetle Wing year. 
Luminosity also constantly clashed with some of the Ministry members, most notably, the SilkWing member named Cabbage. Cabbage was very ignorant and inconsiderate, and most of the Ministry members were afraid to speak up about Cabbage and his policies; Even Luminosity, at times, although Cabbage wasn't the only incompetent member of the Ministry of Intertribal Schools. Luminosity also had issues with Swordfish, the SeaWing member, but befriended Russet and Arcticlight, the MudWing and hybrid members. 
Luminosity had also suggested adding electricity to Beetle Lake Academy, since at the time, most of the Pantalan hives and cities had electricity, and the Ministry had approved of electricity being added to Jade Mountain Academy. They graduated from Beetle Lake Academy a year early and moved to the LeafSilk Commonwealth at the age of twelve, before taking on an apprenticeship as an assistant for the LeafSilk Assembly. Overall, Beetle Lake Academy was a better time for Luminosity, where they made friends and were able to set precedents for intertribal schools as well.
Luminosity brought up the paused project of getting electricity implemented into Beetle Lake Academy, as most of Pantala had electricity and it was approved for Jade Mountain Academy. They also advocated for inclusivity, and convinced those who were unsure on voting for or against the strict “one tribe per wing” policy to vote against it. Overall, Beetle Lake Academy was a better time for Luminosity, where they made friends and were able to have a minor influence on the future of academies like Beetle Lake and Jade Mountain.
|-|Post-school=
After school, Luminosity and Deathbringer moved into the LeafSilk Commonwealth together. Luminosity got an apprenticeship and became a helper for the LeafSilk Assembly, while Deathbringer started to travel and started a career in journalism. Luminosity also started discussing with Stormwatcher and Omenseeker about allowing Nightlight and Wildstrike to go to either Nightshade or Jade Mountain Academy, which resulted in their only contact being arguments for a period of time.
Also around this time, Luminosity began to medically transition, followed shortly after by Deathwatcher. This enraged most of Luminosity's family, who already knew about their non-cisgender identity, which lead to either Luminosity cutting contact with them, or vice versa. Luminosity also managed to convince their mother and stepfather to allow Nightlight and Wildstrike to attend Jade Mountain Academy.
After the apprenticeship, Luminosity began to start archiving and keeping track of all sorts of records from Pantala, particularly records from the LeafSilk Commonwealth and the ancient BeetleWing territories. Luminosity got another job as a legislative assistant, which they kept up until they ran for the LeafSilk Assembly. At the age of fifteen, they were elected as an assembly member representing their territory. 
Luminosity befriended some members of the government, including Prime Minister Oakblue, and adopted cats to live with. Currently, they live with Deathwatcher in the LeafSilk Commonwealth alongside their many cats.

==Relationships==
===Friends===
<tabber>
|-|Deathwatcher=
Luminosity and Deathwatcher have a very positive relationship and are best friends and share many interests. Among Luminosity's and Deathwatcher's circle, there is a running joke saying that they are secretly the same dragon, because of said shared interests, similar personality, and the fact they get along so well. Luminosity and Deathwatcher consider themselves best friends, and they have known each other for years. The two met at Beetle Lake Academy, where they shared a small handful of classes, and were both involved with the academy's community and shared many of the same friends. The two like to share memories of their time in school and share memories with and about their friends as well. Luminosity and Deathwatcher were both very upset when Deathwatcher moved to Dragontail Academy, although the two were determined to stay in contact. The two like to help each other out, especially Deathwatcher, as when Luminosity ran for the student seat on the Ministry of Intertribal Schools, Deathwatcher helped them campaign and spread the message.
Both of them also trusted each other enough to move out together rather than alone, however the two disagreed on where they wanted to move to. Luminosity, while unsure where they wanted to move to, wanted to move to West Pantala, while Deathwatcher wanted to go to the Poison Jungle. The two mutually agreed on the LeafSilk Commonwealth. Shortly after, both of their new jobs had taken time away from each other and ever since, they haven't seen each other in person that often, being a few times a year scenario ever since. Currently, the two remain in contact, despite the both of them being busy, and they typically exchange letters, regardless of if the LeafSilk Assembly is in session or if Deathwatcher is actively travelling or investigating a story.
The two also share many similarities, such as having awful families, being autistic (and having other neurodivergent diagnosis as well), both identifying under the trans umbrella, having similar events in the past and having multiple mutual friends.
|-|Heron=
Heron was the first of Luminosity's friends from Beetle Lake Academy. Being the first dragon that Luminosity met and their first friend, the two are close and remain in contact. The two often hung out and were overjoyed whenever they had a class together during school, often disrupting class because of jokes or memes that they giggled and laughed about whenever they were supposed to do something. Even though they didn't have many interests in common, the two liked making amusing art of stupid things, and they shared a similar sense of humor. Luminosity often appreciated that Heron looked out for them, and always looked forward to hearing Heron burst out laughing at a joke or drawing they made. When Heron decided to drop out of Beetle Lake Academy due to family pressure, Luminosity was sad to see them go and tried to remain in contact, however it was limited.
Sometime after graduating, the two met again and still maintain their friendship to this day, although them being in touch with each other isn't frequent due to Luminosity's job in the Assembly.
