Tails is a male, SkyWing NightWing dragonet and a former assistant to Mastermind and NightWing citizen and currently works as a mechanic and physical scientist in the "Scales of Hope". He is a close friend to Gyr.
APPEARANCE
Tails is short and stout, only as tall as Gyr's shoulder. To most he appears as an abnormal SkyWing with a clutter of scales around his face and a little on his neck with a forked tongue and eyes that resemble Firekeeper's alluding to being more NightWing in shape. Her has two tails, his namesake, originally curled to form one tail from embarrassment, though since he's embraced them, often intentionally making them present.
He has orange-gold scales said to be cold to the touch with dark orange overscales and brown claws that are rounded down from working on his projects. His neck has glints of gold with off-white underscales and wings, a bit of it patching a part of his face and his legs. He has soft, blue eyes and a sweet smile.
Tails has an organized satchel with a sickle, scrolls, bolts, and other materials as well as a bag around his hind left leg that contains many small minerals. Tails may sometimes wear his "Dusk Desert" which is a helmet that gives him night vision.
PERSONALITY
Tails is kind-hearted and resourceful. While he is willing to help others, he isn't a complete pushover and can call out anyone trying to use him. He is smart and precise, having a knack for engineering. He tends to get distracted by new, interesting things to wonder how they work but otherwise has a great focus.
SKILL
STRENGTHS
* Quick
**While he can't catch up to Gyrfalcon, he can at least consistently follow behind him.
* Intelligent & Resourceful
** He is intelligent for his age and is able to experiment and engineer certain projects. Additionally he can use his current surroundings in his situation to find a solution or way out.
* Night Vision
** While it's weak, it's better than non-NightWings
* Great at far combat
**Due to being young, his scales haven't fully developed thus talons can damage him more than 6+ year olds. So in advantage he began practicing far-range accuracy using darts and his breath. His nimble body and high agility allows him to dodge incoming attacks more often. 
MIDDLE GROUND
* Weak Fire
** Skyfire is another half to a firescale, meaning his fire is extremely weak. Though due to his NightWing side, this is slightly salvaged as he's able to breathe small flames, often embers.
** Smaller flames can burn objects without causing much additional damage like Sunny burning a lock away.
** Though Skyfire cannot breathe in an entire line of fire.
WEAKNESSES
* Rounded talons
**He often works with materials and creating inventions so his talons are usually breaking or rounding down. 
**In fighting, his round talons make it hard to pierce skin.
* Fear of lightning
**Lightning occurs often during storms so in case of an important event, if there's a storm, it immediately hones down his ability to focus as he constantly fears the strike of lightning.
BIOGRAPHY
* Skyfire and his sibling's egg was kept by Forethought in the moonlight, the NightWing attempting to have one of them be moonborn. When Skyfire's egg tinted silver at sunrise, Forethought took it as enough time to leave aware that NightWings would arrive soon.
* Unfortunately he was intercepted earlier than expected as Morrowseer knew he'd make his leave after the full moon set. Forethought was killed for resisting forces, the younger egg smashed with Skyfire's was kept in hopes of him having a strong moonborn power to replace Starflight. He named him Skyfire out of spite, aware Forethought intended him to be named Two-Tails after seeing him through the egg.
* Skyfire ended up hatching with an extremely weak vision power that was more of an annoyance than helpful and appeared more like a SkyWing. He would've been killed if SkyWings weren't in high demand for the prophecy, allocating him as a false dragonet of destiny. 
* From his hybridism and twin tails he was mocked and looked down upon. Despite being a false dragonet, he was considered last, only allowed to eat scraps of scraps or hunt after everyone else.
* He only began to grow in the eyes of his peers after the struggle for survival made him grow to be creative and intuitive, creating small projects such as a trap for prey and a way to stash it only he could access.
* Eventually both projects were found out and he was instructed to aid Mastermind in his work in hopes of speeding up the process. Around the same time Avalanche and Flame arrived, Morrowseer being able to remove Skyfire from the prophecy though by then he already knew too much.
* He often rivals [placeholder] and Clevermind, moping whenever he has to help them despite the two not wanting his aid, only allowing him from Mastermind and Morrowseer's orders.
* His first time introduced to the RainWings, he immediately felt something was off and worried for them. On occasions he'd try to sneak a conversation between them to give them a boost of hope or confidence. Though eventually he was caught and allocated to just [placeholder] alone, removed from Mastermind's project.
* He'd use the extra time to continue to keep his eye on the prophecy project, watching the arrival of the false dragonets. He studied them to learn about other tribe behaviors and fighting tactics, believing they would be useful whenever he decides to escape the island.
* He followed the dragonets and Starflight when they left for SkyWing borders in the skies and through the mountains, remembering the pathway to leave. On a break island on their way back, Fatespeaker finds Skyfire and introduces him to Starflight, believing the two would get along. They separate after leaving, Skyfire reaching the island early to cover his tracks.
* The two would talk a little more, eventually getting Skyfire on the invasion plan. For the rest of the time he'd keep it a secret. At the invasion, he was clarified to be innocent, instructed by Glory to free other dragons. Despite being overwhelmed with fear, Skyfire took the task.
* Skyfire freed the majority of RainWings in the east of the frontier, though was caught by [placeholder]. He hoped the rest would be saved by others and fled, nearly being cornered by Clevermind. Skyfire wasn't able to outfly [placeholder], being thrown into the sea. 
* Skyfire would wash up on the edge of the Sand Kingdom later found by Gyrfalcon, brought back to the Scales of Hope. Originally out of desperation he began to try to contribute to the group, feeling he'd be left behind if he didn't. After many small meets discussing it, Skyfire intervened on a conference to discuss a specific way to signal to others, coming up with a specific wing frizzles and tail curls. He also made a small model of a sundial to tell the time.
* Gyr took interest in Skyfire's efforts, though with some worry, getting him to calm down and reassuring him he doesn't have to fight for his stay anymore. They'd overtime get along as Skyfire expresses his interest and Gyr's abilities, eventually creating wing-flaps inspired by Gyr's as a way to stabilize flight of wing-damaged dragons.
* Gyr allowed Skyfire to join him in scouting the desert more. They meet Cottontail along the way, both promising to reunite her with her mother, eventually finding her taking refuge with other SandWings on kingdom outskirts. However they were attacked by Burn's forces, Gyr sending Skyfire off to get help.
* He'd later return with the Wings of Glory along with a few other dragons, being enough to escort everyone to the base. He helped others pack up before everyone moved out of the desert towards somewhere else for safer grounds. He and Gyr leave to gain a deal to be able to settle in the Rainforest if they patrol the NightWing Village. On their flight there, Skyfire felt safe enough to explain their first meeting, delving into his history up to the exodus. In the moment he also officially changed his name to Two-Tails, more commonly Tails.
* At the arrival of the group, Gyr left him with the settlement. During this time, a night he picked up on a noise, finding Hawk, Mindspeaker and Gull stalking a scouting group on their way to the new base in the rainforest far from the settlement. He pondered taking action while watching from the trees, though before he could think of something a strike of lightning scared him, making his presence known. 
* After rekindling his confidence, he confronted the group, teasing them when they try to make threats. Eventually as they begin to lose the scouting group, the dragons ponder on capturing Tails or catching up, eventually losing Tails in the trees to refind the group.
* Tails leaves to warn the group, taking the route outside of the Rainforest to avoid being possibly attacked by the 3 dragons. On his way, he spotted a dragon following him. In the dark, stormy night he assumed someone was lost and using him as guidance, slowing down. Though he realizes it was Clevermind when he begins to attack him. He is nearly killed when Gyr intercepts the fight, allowing him to return to the settlement.
* Tails warns dragons of the 3 dragons arriving, though all the main members have left to help members reach the settlement, most others not wanting to risk it. He tried to gain the RainWing's help but Glory was already busy trying to find Sunny and overlook the NightWings.
* He decides to round up Joy, Whisperer, Bumble and Jewel after meeting them, the 5 heading towards the base at midnight to not raise alarms.
* They'd eventually counter Hawk and his group's attack on the growing base, trying to keep them away. After nearly being melted by venom, Tails would eventually get the upper hand against Hawk, jabbing his chest with both of his weaponized tails. From the terrible injury, Hawk called for a retreat, the dragons leaving. Shortly, Wren and Coyote arrive at the commotion, thanking Tails and everyone for saving the base.
* He returns to the Rainforest here he reunites with Gyr, the two embracing as Gyr introduces him to Rose. They aid in gathering dragons to Burn's Stronghold, particularly bringing some SoH members along with a few other rogue and loner dragons. He also helped everyone redirect to the stronghold walls at the dragonbite snake attack.
* In the end Tails was enrolled to JMA by Gyr.
----
* Tails spent a lot of time in the Academy, making a few friends with dragons. He mostly enjoyed history class, and after finding it, ocassionally ask Stonemover questions in his cave despite never getting any good answers. Though at the cactus bomb incident, Gyr immediately pulled him out, believing he already could learn anything else he need in SoH anyways.
* Skyfire meets Fig, of which he asked too many questions, scaring Fig away being told to tone it down next time by Rose.
* At Fig's disappearance, Tails was sent to Wren to aid in construction while Gyr left with teams to look for Fig. At Gyr and Fig's return, he, Fig, Gyr and Rose left to locate [x]. 
* Tails strategies their entrance into the temple, though Gyr nearly broke formation almost falling for a trap after it used Rose as bait.
* At the battle in the temple, Tails placed cactus bombs as an emergency escape option in case [x] and Sharpsight got the upper hand, running back to help free Rose and take on Sharpsight. One of the bombs were accidentally set off at the conclusion of the fight, everyone evacuating the premise safely.
* He noted the experience down in his records, putting down ideas to make the cactus less flammable.
* He with others met in the SoH crown tower, discussing Rose being given leadership as well as getting Fig home. At the meeting, Darkstalker arises, Rose and Tails explaining who he is to unaware dragons, adding him to the issues billboard.
----
* From the commotion, Tails and Rose were sent to check on the Rain Kingdom. Tails realizes Darkstalker has enough dragons to make a sufficient army, stating the urgency of the situation to the council at their return.
* Gyr concludes that they need to warn the Ice Kingdom. When he requested for Tails's aid, Tails reminds him of the Ice Cliff, discouraging Fig from joining as well. He doesn't want Gyr to go alone, suggesting Rose as an accomplice.
* While the two left, Skyfire and Fig aided in leader operations. At Rose's return with Silverlining, Shadowhunter, Ravenous and Omega, he helped creating a plan to hopefully intervene the impending Night-Ice War on Jade Mountain.
* He meets Peregrine and Malachite from Gyr, adding their ideas to the plan to intercept few dragons out of the time and drag them out of the fight.
* At Darkstalker's sealing, he and others celebrated in the SoH. He joined in Rose's "Fire and Ice" project to clean up tension between NightWings and IceWings remaining.
----
* Tails meets Gyr's mother, Flurry, on their visit, finding LeafWing refugees docking at her home. They'd return, helping some dragons meet with others in the Sanctuary as Gyr connected the two settlements.
* He later helped Rose organize the rescue attack in Pantala, helping dragons move between Hives to free zones safely.
* At their return, Tails helps with clean up as well as mending the Winglet system.
RELATIONSHIPS
FORETHOUGHT 
Forethought is Tails' father. He didn't get to see Forethought often but remembers his attempt to save him from the Night Island life and thanks him for it.
GYRFALCON 
Gyrfalcon is Tails' best friend and practical brother, practically even being brothers. Since their first meet Tails constantly admired Gyr, wanting to prove his worth by contributing to the group, eventually needing to be told such a drive was unnecessary. Overtime Tails grew more comfortable around Gyr, being the first dragon she shared his past with, eventually becoming close. While both are smart and clever, Tails tends to take more of the brains while Gyrfalcon is more on brawn. He is sometimes annoyed at Gyr's hasty nature though such a trait has been slowly growing on him.
FIG 
Fig is another one of Tails' main friends. They tend to playfully argue between eachother being on the opposite spectrum of brains and brawns. They can work together though and often they cover the weaknesses of each other.
ROSE 
Rose is one of Tails' main friends and the closest main friends to him in age. Both often joke between each other and Rose sometimes tends to be an inspiration to take initiative. 
PITCHER 
Pitcher is one of Tails' friends. Despite not knowing her for long they do get along being relatively around the same age. Tails sometimes can't understand Pitcher at all, sometimes finds her ideas genius, the other being rare.
ARMADILLO 
Armadillo is one of Tails' friends. He met him through Gyrfalcon and while they don't often cross but Tails appreciates his calm demeanor. 
SQUIRREL 
Squirrel is one of Tails' friends and the closest friend to his age in general. They play around a lot, Tails wanting to show Squirrel how to make things of his own. Though sometimes Squirrel questions his patience.
FATESPEAKER 
Fatespeaker is one of the few only friends Tails had in the Night Kingdom. He believes she has some sort of power but that it's weakened. He doesn't think she's crazy and feels sorry for how others treat her. He sometimes tries to find exactly what her power is through asking question.
MINDREADER 
Tailsa nd Mindreader tend to not talk often but he remembers him as another one of the NightWings nice to him.
MASTERMIND 
Tails and Mastermind both tend to clash and work together very well. While he loves his admiration for mystery, he hates the way he executed it. He hates his mistreatment of RainWings and hates him in general because of it. 
FIERCETEETH 
Fierceteeth and Tails don't get along at all. They hate eachother as Tails tends to get picked on and Fierceteeth hates his ramblings. 
MORROWSEER 
Morrowseer always struck Tails as souless. Every stare he gives off is a taste of salt on his tongue and he tends to try to avoid and ignore Morrowseer's orders. Morrowseer never cared for him and Tails knew it, even as a back up dragonet of destiny, and he saw through the prophecy.
[PLACEHOLDER] 
[PLACEHOLDER] is the opposite to Tails. While both are smart and inventive, they stand on the complete opposite moral spectrum. While he hates him, Tails respects at least some of what [PLACEHOLDER] has come up with and inventions but hates him otherwise.
CLEVERMIND 
Tails has a similar emotion to Clevermind as to [PLACEHOLDER] but less. He feels a slight tinge of potential in him as Clevermind constantly followed [PLACEHOLDER], and without him he believes he can use his brain for good.
STARFLIGHT 
Starflight and Tails are very similar. For the few moments they meet across time, they have a blast geeking about being interested in each others' ideas.
MOONWATCHER 
Tails and Moonwatcher didn't interact often while Sky was at Jade Mountain but both were said to sometimes read in the library. Tails slightly envied Moon hatching in the Rainforest, though didn't let the thought get to him too much.
SIAMANG, COCONUT AND BOTO 
Tails finds their curiosity relatable and enjoyed their presence while attending Jade Mountain.
TRIVIA
* Tails originally had a sibling but upon discovery of his father's relationship, it's egg was smashed.
* Tails was originally named by his father "Two-Tails". Out of spite, Morrowseer changed it to Skyfire. However Tails respects and prefers his first name and shortens it to "Tails". He prefers to be called by the full or nickname, currently working with his old peers to recognize such a change.
* Tails was hatched under a clear two-moon night that was already beginning to set. This on top of being part SkyWing made his foresight short and weak that he often ignores it.
