==Appearance==
Nicotine is a lean, and thin dragon. Standing at average height for icewings, slightly shorter than your normal skywing, with a sharp jawline and pointed features. His horns are smooth and slightly curved, a beautiful glossy silver luster coats his spines and horns. Down his back is a line of thick, pointed spines, like skywing ridges but much longer and thinner, and silvery white in color. This color matches that of the line that runs down his side, right above the scales that line his underbelly, which are a pattern of saturated reds. His main scales are faintly stippled and striped with faint smokey grays and darker shades of red around them. His face shares simmilar markings to his full body, scales that cover his face are found in three segments. First, atop his snout is the main over-scales. They are dappled in appearance, colored in a faint orange and ice blue gradient, and curl around the horn on his nose. Under that are the desaturated orange scales that go around and in front of his blue eyes, lined by the same white of the stripe down his sides. His underbelly is a pale, muted coral color, not quite pink, not quite orange either. 
His massive wings stretch nearly double the length of his body, excluding his whip-thin tail. their outer side is coated in smooth leathery scales, while the inside shows the wing membrane that stretches between their fingers, of a soft pastel red, orange, and white gradient, speckled in dark spots and freckles. 
Nicotine is usually adorned with satchels or bags, containing various art supplies and equipment for survival situation. Typically, his ears are pierced with rings and studs of gold or obsidian, or, occasionally skyfire. He is unaware of this stone's anti-mind reading properties. Often times, he can be found wearing scarves or other cloth's draped over his scales and back. Bracelets clasped around his left wrist are common, mostly of those having rubies or sapphires embedded in their cold metal. Frequently, he can be seen with a necklace of trinkets and keys draped from around his neck, held in place by the spines on his back. Rings, keys, and other various items can be found on his necklace of treasures, something he values quite greatly.

=History=
Hatched to separated parents, and criminal father whom he stayed with, Nicotine found himself occupied with the few books he could find and any paint he got his talons on. His lonely upbringing brought him plenty of time to hone his skills and craft, spending day and night sketching for hours and hours under lantern-light. He grew an affinity for nature, and a connection to the world itself as he realized he had no one but himself. He learnt fast that the world owes you nothing, and that to survive, difficult decisions must be made. So, at a young age he began conning other dragons out of their money. A sly little dragonet, he had a sharp tongue and was plenty witty to get enough coin when he needed it. Nonetheless, his anxiety and guilt often got the better of him, and when he wasn't in dire situations he took it upon himself to return whatever he had stole. Only after two years of this did he begin to grow desensitized to thieving, and no longer cared about the morality of such actions. It was better in his talons than theirs, after all. Around this time he had his first few skirmishes, which landed him a few nasty scars. He had strived for a long time to one day escape the life of crime that his parents had hatched him into, and around the age of 11 he ran away, disappearing under the cover of the night.
He began his adventures by voyaging to the icewing kingdom, gliding over the great ice cliff with no difficulty, which didn't surprise him since he shared the blood of an icewing. Here he began to feel an affinity for the colder side of life, meeting several icewings who however hesitant soon warmed up to the charismatic and sweethearted rouge. This is where Nicotine met his real mother and caught up with her after all the years. Of course, his wanderlust didn't allow him to stay long, seeking a warmer, greener area to live. 
So, once again Nicotine sat out on his own with nothing but his art supplies, several weeks of rations, and the items he wore. He eventually made it to the skywing kingdom and for a while he stayed, selling art and saving up money.
