Fire Rising in the Night

This character belongs to Kittyluvver, do not use without permission.
Fire Rising in the Night - or Fire, for short - is an ancient Pyrrhian dragon and the current TribeLeader of the Tribe of the Rising Sun. Fire is a SandWing dragoness. She was once a slave of the Tribe, but has risen from poverty to become a respected warrior and the eventual TribeLeader.
==Description==
Her bright green eyes are cold as ice, the angles of her face sharp and flinty. Her body is fiercely painted and tattooed in the style of a warrior - the red and black of henna and ochre striking against her golden scales.
Lithe yet strong, she is tall enough to command authority in her step, but not so big as to be bulky. Fire possesses a set of leather armor, but often chooses to do without it in order - trusting the ambient power of her war paint to deliver her from harm. But she has often paid for this in blood. Her scales are crisscrossed with scars, and she has received the HealMark so often that she has built up a resistance to it.
The FaithRune, the highest of all the divine tribal Runes, is branded into the scales of her brow. And yet on her flank glimmers the Loyalty Rune - the shameful black Rune that marks Fire's time as a slave for the Tribe she now leads. As the years have passed the behavior ot the Loyalty Rune has become more erratic. Whereas it once punished her only when she was disobeying her masters, now it inflicts crippling pain on her at unpredictable times.
==Personality==
Former slave, now an impossibly young female TribeLeader; the path Fire walks has never been easy. But the blazing fire of her determination and strength of will burns bright in her eyes. Here is a dragon who has been beaten, starved, forced to endure searing agony on a daily basis - and yet her spirit is pure and unbroken. 
This is a dragon who was exiled in the desert, hunted lions, drank a cup of her own blood to prove her courage. She is a warrior, both in name and in deed. 
Fire's defining attribute is her determination and courage. She is an excellent leader, with a mind for strategy, and has lead countless successful battles and hunts. She is a true lady commander, and yet she excels more on the battlefield than in the shadowed areas of courtly intrigue. She doesn't have a mind for these power games, and dislikes plotters and schemers with a vengeance.
