Brother

redoing 
Tern, more commonly referred to as Brother, is an adult male MudWing.
==Backstory==
Brother hatched in a MudWing village, Hidden-Among-Reeds, by the low ends of the delta and the farthest from the Queen Moorhen's palace. He hatched first out of two other eggs - making him the bigwings - and only a few years soon before the end of the SandWing Succession. Despite this, Brother, Egret, and Ibis never needed to fight in the war due to the small size of the troop, though worked as back-up guards in the SandWing stronghold for Princess Burn.
There, he trained under Commander Verdin, a dragon that loathed having to train. Brother hated him and Verdin hated him back, feeling just insulted that he would have to train a MudWing, a former enemy and a "lazy toad". Verdin held nothing back in the trainings and would tell off minor things during the shifts where Brother needed to guard the stronghold.
During this time, he got closer to his siblings though in only five years, Brother would do something he would regret forever.
When Burn had Sunny held up in the weirdling tower, it was his turn to guard the stronghold, luckily with no Verdin and only his siblings, who he had hardly gotten close to during the passing months. It was a calm and joyful first few hours until Egret claimed to see some rising suns in the night. Only a short while after, it was revealed to be SandWings, ready to storm the stronghold. 
Ibis went down quickly, stabbed in the back with a venomous tail, though it missed her heart, Ibis's wound was fatal. He would have lived in Brother hadn't panicked. He always was nervous deep down while in the stronghold, but here was his first real taste of a battle. 
Egret managed to snap him out of a worried state and the troop managed to cover in a corner for a short while before the remaining Outclaws decided to "play" with some dragonflame cacti by the stronghold. The explosion hit a tower, right when Ibis and Egret were rested in a corner where the tower was. Brother saw it coming, but ran away instead of warning them. The last he heard of his siblings was a cry for him to come back and that he was a coward.
A needle flew past him, giving him his scar, but he kept running and running, not looking back, until passing out by the entrance of the Scorpion Den. The Outclaw guard noticed him and brought him in the den to be hydrated and brought back to health. Soon after, Brother began his travels as the war had ended.
==Personality==
Brother is hard to get along with. He is rather silent, grumpy, cold, a little too serious, and aloof. Instead of asking someone to stop talking, he just shushes. This doesn't mean he is unloving, if anything, Brother sees it as his way of showing love and protection.
He doesn't get jokes or sarcasm, and much like when he smiles, it seems very fake. A simple "heh" or "mm" shows more care then a booming laughter at a joke.
Brother is afraid of loosing those he loves again, a simple mind reader could tell you that, but he tries to shake away his true feelings about that.
He also has confidence problems, believing himself not only to be the worst bigwings, but a terrible dragon and a for fleeing the dragonflame attack.
==Appearance==
Brother has dark red-brown scales with hints of black and serious red eyes. His ears droop. Brother is not large like a typical MudWing, but tall like a SkyWing with RainWing curves and a little on the skinny side. A slash is on his snout from a dragonflame cactus's needle. He has a gruff and strict voice with some amount of comfort.
His ears droop low.

==Quotes==
"Terrible am I not? A coward who ran away from his own family at a time of need. I should have been a bigger dragon then, but alas.. proves how much of a coward I truly am. I won't wish for it to change.. heh."
"Mmm.. you're boring."
