Queen Heliconia

== Overview ==
=== Appearance ===
Heliconia is a magenta RainWing dragonet that appears to be smaller than most members of her tribe. Her top scales are a similar color, but a much lighters shade, bordering somewhere close to pink.
Her underbelly and wings are shades of green that are similar to a slightly desaturated lime color. She retains the green stripe along her underbelly that was there on her mother as well, though it is only a slightly brighter shade.
The ridges along her back and tail are a slightly teal color. This color also applies to the ruffs around her head and the spots that line her sides.
=== Personality ===
Heliconia is not the most likable dragon, being rather spoiled due to a combination of her position of power and her relatively young age.
She also makes some quite rash decisions, and frequently makes terrible choices, even with the advice of those close to her.
The Young Queen is also a highly vengeful dragon, and is not one to forget a grudge, no matter how long it has been since the incident that started it.
=== History ===
Heliconia was hatched in 5,067 A.S to her mother, Queen Vine. She hatched in the rainforest and the Wingery like most RainWing dragonets.
For the first few years of her life, Heliconia stayed in the Wingery. It was here that she learned how to read and write, and grew very adept at camouflaging her scales, one of the best of the dragonets her age.
Heliconia was less than three years old when her elder sister, Princess Strelitzia, was exiled from the RainWing tribe. She had never liked her sister much, and did not know her well.
As such, the Princess remained in the kingdom for her youngest years, just sitting around and not really having much to do.
And then the rebellion happened.
The NightWings stormed the palace and Heliconia was quickly whisked away to safety. She was three years old at the time, and a good chunk of the court had been killed, including her mother, Queen Vine.
Being the only relative of Vine’s who wasn’t in exile or otherwise dead, Heliconia was crowned queen soon after. Her advisors urged her to give her power to a Regent until she was older, notably Battleseer, but she shrugged them away, intent on running the kingdom.
Under her rule, the RainWings became more complacent, and the NightWings suffered extremely harsh punishments, though Heliconia lifted some of them after Battleseer pointed out that that would just make them more angry.
As of current, Heliconia has ruled the kingdom for about three years. She hasn’t done much, and is a mostly passive ruler, allowing her advisors and other government officials to do most of the work.
== Miscellaneous ==
=== Relationships ===
====Battleseer====
Heliconia and Battleseer have a purely professional relationship, and they do not like each other in the slightest. Heliconia, like her mother before her, believes that Battleseer wants the crown for himself and intends to betray her.
Unfortunately, she can’t just exile him because Battleseer is one of the few advisors she has that actually gives her usable advice, regardless how much she despises him.
She sees him as rather snooty and generally too suspicious, which is a sentiment shared by some of RainWing subjects as well.
==== Queen Vine ====
Heliconia did not know her mother well, hardly at all, but still saw her as a great dragon. When they did actually meet with each other, Vine made efforts to be decent towards her daughter, which she greatly appreciated.
Overall, their relationship was mostly positive, though not very deep.
==== Princess Strelitzia ====
The second worst relationship Heliconia has is with her sister, Strelitzia. Initially, they were on neutral terms with each other, but then Strelitzia accidentally got some venom on Heliconia’s shoulder.
Strelitzia was exiled soon after that, and the two siblings never saw each other after that. Heliconia did her usual thing and ended up having a large grudge against her sister for her injury, and refused to allow her back into the kingdom,
==== NightWings ====
Heliconia despises the NightWings with a near burning passion. She sees them as only the dragons that killed her mother and the dragons that wish to take over the Rainforest for themselves.
Early on in her queenship, Heliconia imposed harsh restrictions on the NightWing tribe. She placed curfews, trade restrictions, weapon restrictions, etc. etc. and nearly caused another revolt. She rescinded most of them at the urging of her advisors but still left the curfew in place.
