Little Auk

"I can practically see the role-model IceWing in my head. It tells me exactly what to do- who to bow to, who to be wary of, what to do when my parents are mad- just one problem. I don't listen."
==== Description ====
Little Auk was possibly named for how short she was- in fact, she was a runt, her two siblings being much, much taller than her to the point the size ratio should have been two to one. Auk probably won't grow for a long time, anyhow. She has a thicker tail than average, and wings that seem rather long and lanky compared to the rest of her body, which she has seemingly randomly placed stripes on it. She is a weird purple shade, but this is not uncommon among IceWings, especially since some of them have SeaWing ancestry. Oddly enough though, Little Auk's history has no record of such a thing. Her eyes are the usual dark purplish-blue, but rather than the hostility of other IceWings, hers are large and doe-like, making them adorable.
==== Personality ====
Little Auk is very friendly, and rather alienated from her own tribe, because of her purple scales. Because of this, Auk doesn't like talking about them. If they are brought up, she will 'conveniently' change the subject. She is rather observant- but not very vigilant, though she can be when needed- not that she'll ever think its needed. This brings us to another key trait of hers- her stubbornness. She refuses to accept anything that goes against what she already believes unless serious intervention is made. She is also very childish at times, and is almost always disobedient. She has turbulent mood swings, and is terribly clingy- she has a fear of abandonment, possibly due to the situation of her mother and brother's disappearances. For this reason she also tends to hyperactively watch the whereabouts of dragons- if they disappear, even for a minute, she gets a spike of nervousness. She loves, on the other hand, eating whenever she gets the chance (possibly due to a near-starvation experience,) and loves feeling as if she is actually needed. She is a realist, leaning towards optimism, as she displays during an escape attempt in the Your Demise RP thread. Little Auk prefers to have long, deep conversations rather than brief ones, which she views as 'trivial' and not of importance. Despite this, she doesn't have many deep conversations because she doesn't know how to start one.
==== Childhood ====
Little Auk had surprisingly loving parents, who were proud of her scales- but not everyone else was. When she was first sent to school, she showed off her scales like a trophy- and dragonets who were stronger and taller than her would ask for them, to which she would obviously refuse, because she knew it would definitely be painful. Unlucky for her, though, they weren't the kind to respect her opinion. It was the first day of school and she was already being bullied- and her parents didn't think much of it, at first- they thought Auk was being overdramatic as she always was- but clearly that proved itself not to be the case when she got into an actual fight. Shortly after, Little Auk's family began to show problems with their income- Auk was always well-fed, of course, along with her siblings, but her parents weren't as lucky. Soon, Auk's mother seemed to get fed up, and the family would erupt into arguments constantly from then on- nobody hated each other. They were all just exhausted 7th circle IceWings trying to make a living. Soon after, Auk's mother abandoned them- the bullying by now had stopped as Auk had to be forced out of school (they were growing to the point they couldn't afford the local ones). Auk's father always sent letters, wishing that it would bring her bacl. The clinginess made him resenting, and he now lived in a world of his dreams. Little Auk was always favored by her brothers, who always protected her. Gelid went missing shortly after, having secretly escaped into the night, not able to take the pressure, and things began to fall apart, Little Auk eventually strangling out of sight and finding herself too far to find her way back. Only a few days after was she found by the SkyWings. 
==== Abilities ====
Little Auk has animus blood down her bloodline, though she has never been stated to be an animus. She has been jokingly described as a 'walking death child', because she takes notes on how dragons prefer to kill each other, and even their style of fighting. Similarly, she is quick and, when unrestrained, can even sometimes go as far to gripping walls and walking them in a similar fashion to a SilkWings! She can clear much land given only a few seconds, and prefers surroundings in which she can glide, which are arguably when she is at her best- she can swiftly glide through trees and stay only breadths away from anyone's sight. Though she is like this, she is easily tired out when not fed properly (which is almost all the time), very frail (in the case you land a hit her, you would probably send her flying across the room), and she is easily distracted, a con to being so hyper-vigilant when stressed.

==== Trivia ====
* Autumn sometimes calls her 'Auklet', thinking of a canon character
* Little Auk is named after a bird of the arctic
* Little Auk is slightly smaller than Sunny was at her age.
* Little Auk has RainWing ancestry- they simply could not find the records because it dated far back.
* Little Auk is distantly related to the royal family, but in an event in which her ancestor ran off to be with a RainWing, disgraced the bloodline. For this reason it was difficult for Auk's family line to rank high in the circles.
* Her theme songs are 'Evelyn Evelyn' and 'I'd Rather Sleep'
*Little Auk's personality probably got inspiration from Thea, a character in a book called Last Things written by Jacqueline West, and a very small hint from Decca in Monsters.
*The first and as of now only roleplay Auk has been in is Your Demise, created by CannedButter. 
*Little Auk was previously in the 7th circle, but refused to wear her assigned necklace.
