On his face this coloring is reversed with black scales with red running in between each scale, his tail blade is primarily black but ringed with red. His under scales are a dark gray. He has black eyes with red pupils that can turn from warm and loving to furious and spiteful to cold and calculating within a matter of seconds. His wing membrane is a bright red like his scales but the wing frame is a much darker red. the base of his legs are the same color as his main body but slowly bleed into a dark red and black, at the end of his legs are his claws which are primarily black with red shading. 
Personality 
Nightshade is sarcastic, jokey, socially awkward, alert, calculating, brave and short tempered. He does not like being forced into things he doesn't want to do and will often challenge others when he disagrees with them regardless of size difference or ranking. He hates unfair situations. He also loves reading but hates studying . He reacts to things and thinks extremely quickly but when caught off guard is often slow to answer and figure things out. He can be quite stupid at times and he can also be quite impulsive as well as having difficulties trusting other dragons. He also has multiple mental disorders, as he possesses, ADHD as well as a fine motor disability , he can be extremely manipulative and a amazing liar when he wants to be. He can replicate voices and create weird sounds extremely well and uses this to pull pranks and freak out other dragons. 
Relationships 
Moon
Moon is Nightshades closest friend. He tends to get very protective of her and can not stand when others target or bully her. He can be a bit overprotective or overbearing but generally will leave her to fight her own battles. Moon and him will sometimes talk with each other when they should be asleep and he is often the first person she goes to when she need to talk about something. Because they can both be easily overwhelmed by loud, crowded areas they tend to stick together and use each other for stability. Moon is the only dragon that can bring Nightshade out of his blood rage, displaying a deep mutual trust and respect. They will often try to outdo each other and are often trade sarcastic jokes. Nightshade feels as though Moon is the only one that truly understands him 
Secretkeeper
Nightshade has a very positive relationship with his foster mother. When he lived in the nightwing village, Moon and Secretkeeper were the only nightwings that he actually spoke to and by extension the only nightwings he liked(that he knew ). when he had to leave Secretkeeper and go into jade mountain he was distraught and wished that she could come with them. He goes to visit her as often as he can and is slowly warming up to other nightwings as a result .
