Apricot the Sandwing

== Personality ==
== Appearance ==
Apricot is described as a flashy SandWing. With a bright white underbelly, sandy yellow scales, and her oddly orange shaded wings and ruff, she was considered "freakish" by her Grandmother and Great-Aunt. Her horns and talons are in brown tones, only adding to her oddness. 
When Apricot lived in Cobra Court, her Grandmother would make her wear a heavy cotton shawl over her wings to try and hide her orangeness from other dragons. Due to this, Apricot never got much flying practice, because she would've had to remove the shawl to fly, and her Grandmother would've never let her do that. Now that Apricot goes to Jade Mountain Academy, she no longer wears the shawl and no longer has to be around her toxic Grandmother and cruel Aunt Sizzle.
== Relationships ==
Scorch (Mother)- When Apricot's mother was still alive, Apricot and Scorch did everything together. Scorch loved Apricot very much and never made Apricot cover her wings or ruff. Apricot loved her mother with all her heart, and when she died, it was devastating. Apricot fondly remembers walking down crowded streets in the Court with her mother, Scorch pointing out lovely things like tapestries and jewelry that they could never afford. Scorch's appearance was described as sand-white scales with hints of pale golden and sand-colored streaks on her wings, belly, and tail. 
Ra (Father)- Apricot and her father had a complicated relationship. Ra always worried that Apricot would get made fun of or picked on because of her scales. Ra loved Apricot, and Apricot knew that, but she found it hard to show her love for him. Ra also found it difficult to express his love for his oddly colored daughter, and he often wondered if it was his fault she was so odd colored (Ra had pale yellow-orange scales). When Ra died, Apricot felt guilty because she was never able to express her love for him openly. 
Mirage (Sister)- Mirage was born four years before Apricot and her hatchmate, Shard, so she was Apricot's older sister and her parents' eldest child. Mirage found is hard to accept Apricot, because Mirage had heard her Grandmother and Great-Aunt talk about her. But Mirage grew close to Apricot, after having to dragon-sit while her parents worked all day. Mirage and Apricot often fought, because Mirage was training to be a Cobra Brigade lieutenant and Brigade lieutenants were often killed in training or in battle. Mirage never stopped training, but she never accepted the lieutenant position when she was offered it, respecting her sister's wishes. When Mirage died, Apricot realized that if Mirage had still been alive, Apricot would've given her blessing to Mirage. Apricot still feels guilty to this day. Mirage was described as having sandy colored scales with dark brown freckles all over. She had large wings and a longer tail than most SandWings. Her neck was more curved than most and her snout was "elegantly posied" as described by her Grandmother. 
Shard (Brother)- Shard and Apricot were hatchmates. Shard was always happy and positive, constantly bouncing around Apricot trying to get her to play with him. Apricot feels a fierce loyalty towards him, and she loves him so terribly much. Apricot would do anything to protect him, especially from her Grandmother and Great-Aunt. Shard was described as a mirror image of his father; pale yellow-orange scales, stocky shoulders, and lanky legs and neck. Now Shard is constantly wrapped in head to tail white gauze and the burn scars have disfigured his scales and appearance.
