Appearance
A quite elegant dragon Billabong is, with a tail longer than most. And a damp, salty scent emits from her oasis-coloured scales. 
Her long frame is unmissable during the hot-season that waves through Pantala. Her bright, sandpaper-y oasis scales sticks out like a sore thumb in the Rainforest. During the cold-season, her scales shift to a dark green to blend in with the thrashing leaves around her. This is the reason some dragons describe her as a RainWing. Her body is edged with leaf-shaped scales, ridging from underneath her ears to the end of her tail. Her eyes are a gentle willow colour when it's hot-season, but turn to a dark, vivid forest when wet-season rolls around. During the wet season, she grows spikes near the edge of her tail as it helps her farm.
Billabong usually wears a bucket hat, or a wide-brimmed, during the hot-season to combat the heat. During very hot days, she wears her ULTIMATE straw-woven wide-brimmed hat for true sun protection.

Personality
Saph looked to Emerald, his face filled with glee. "You may no..."...."PAY ATTENTION!"
Billabong often has issues daydreaming during important events, like hopping into her fantasy world. (Sound familiar?) Her fantasy universe is like her second home, an escape from the real world. A world where she can be in peace, and not get bullied for farming the weirdest foodstuffs.
Billabong can become very irritated, if provoked in a certain way. Say, you trample her crops. She'll get angry and possibly get words involved, and... certain phrases will get used. 
Billabong has been described to like spending time with her crops, I mean, when society really makes you that annoyed why wouldn't you be with the only thing that makes you happy?

History
===Pre-Hatching ===
A LeafWing egg sits in a pine-woven nest, it's small-framed sister tells it a tale about the skyfire comet. As the stars twinkle above, something crashes down, a dragon, a phyrrian one too. The LeafWing beckons it's golden eyes, the LeafWing locked eyes with it, praying it leaves. Then, the egg divides and opens, a crunchy-oasis coloured LeafWing crawls out. The small LeafWing and the phyrrian (SkyWing) look at it, and then at eachother.
"Leave." The LeafWing pushed the phyrrian onto the shore.
===Hatching - 2DY (Young Life)===
====Hatching====
Billabong hatched during the hot-season, so her scales were not the correct colour. Before the incident, she lived with her mother, Hydnora. And her sister, Kapok. Her role models were just them, female role-models. Without that much of a conscience, she just followed her sister and mother around. Her scales were "like her father's", Hydnora says. Once she experienced her first wet-season, her mother and sister were shocked to know that her scales turned a deep-forest green. And her tail became as stiff as a toothpick, and could snap, then regrow. They were still surprised, but not as surprised, to know her long tail grew sharp spikes that can tear apart a dragon's scales.
====1DY====
I don't really remember much from this year, but I know my earliest memories are in this year. I mean, I finally learnt my father's name, but I don't remember it. Kapok actually figured out she had leafspeak, so that's cool I suppose. It's kinda short here I guess, but my tail snapped off for the first time during wet-season, it grew back by the next day. But my mother was so scared, and Kapok was just giggling.
====2DY ====
I have better knowledge of my memories here, still don't remember alot. I went to this weird academy for like, a month, then Mum came and took me out of it because she missed me so much. hah. I don't know what to tell you. 
===Dragonethood===
I suppose, my dragonethood was rough. But, Mum finally figured out why I wasn't like the other LeafWings. She placed me back into the academy for a year, made no friends and came home probably dumber than I already was coming in that year. Then, I just lived at home with Mum and Kapok. Kapok taught me how to do most of what I know in like, a dry-season.
When we became extremely poor, we were absolutely nothing. Not even a single demi-scale to our family. These scientists knew, and they showed up at our house. Demanding a "debt" payment, or another sort of payment.. without a singular piece of money, Mum asks for the other payment. Then, I just remember something getting slapped onto my face and I passed out. I awoke in a weird facility, on a chair.
The big scientist spoke like he was from some ancient city, he didn't look like one of the tribes here. He could glow, his name was Catfish, I overheard one of the other scientists say it. His exact words were "Two of you shall be not, one of you shall be. Debt be free of your family.", unknowing of the meaning, my mother and Kapok agreed. And were taken into a room.
There was a window, I watched it all. Their scales reacted to the liquid, they changed. Blood. Blood.. I don't want to see it, every time I closed my eyes that day, all I saw was their disfiguration. 
===Aftermath===
I was moved to another family, they all had leafspeak. For the first night I spent there, I didn't sleep, I sat on the moss just thinking of that night and the weird facility. The family I moved in with was just three other dragons, the father was named Amazon. He had two twin daughters, Angel Oak and Basil. I was significantly older than Angel Oak and Basil, considering the pair were like 1DY old at the time.
I couldn't stand living in this residential area, so I left the household. I needed to be alone.
=== Current life ===
I live alone on the border between the Southern-West rainforest and the Spike plains. It's pretty nice being alone, but I'm not. I live with my mother and Kapok's ashes, they chill on cool pedestals. 
I don't know what to tell you, but I lost one of my wide-brimmed hats yesterday. Whoops.

===Kapok===
Kapok used to be my older sister, atleast I live with her still. I love you Kapok... And I miss you.

You were a good adoptive father, I just couldn't bear the residential area.
=== Angel Oak ===
Bad sibling. Do not reccomend.
=== Basil ===

He's the worst dragon ever, he deserves to be ripped apart and disemboweled. But it hasn't happened yet.
