Appearance
"Weak NightWing! How can you even move? I bet you fall down and scrape yourself everyday!"
Windsoarer is a NightWing. She has pitch black scales fading into midnight blue at her legs. Her eyes are a faded, worn-out looking green. Sometimes, other dragons tease her for not having bright-tinted green eyes. Under Windsoarer's wings, silver scales glimmer in the pattern of a current of wind. When you look at her, you can immediately see that she is a very weak dragonet. She moves slowly, as if anything faster will make her collaspe. Windsoarer looks a bit bony, even though she grabs all the fruit in the rainforest that she can get. However, Windsoarer is tall, and you can see glimpses of the strong dragonet that she used to be. Her expression is determined.
"Wait, Diamondtail, don't-"
Even though Windsoarer looks weak, no one has ever lain a claw on her.
Why?
Diamondtail, Windsoarer's worst bully, tries to harm her every day. But every time Diamondtail leaps up to Windsoarer and lashes out her claws, a transparent, purple shield appears and knocks Diamondtail back. This doesn't just happen with Diamondtail. This happens every time a dragon tries to hurt Windsoarer or something accidentally happens, like when Tornado threw his tailbarb in Windsoarer's direction, or when Shadowseeker (Windsoarer's older brother) got frustrated and threw a bottle that just happened to fly at Windsoarer.
"It's like you got a snail shell," Okapi, Windsoarer's RainWing best friend, chuckled, touching roses. 
Windsoarer stared at her blankly. "Uh...what?" 
Okapi shook her head. "Nevermind."
Windsoarer has a set of earrings with rubies on them, given to her from her NightWing-SkyWing cousin, Emberclaws.
"Are-are you sure?" Windsoarer asked, holding the ruby earrings. "These look very beautiful, Emberclaws, b-but they look very expensive a-and valuable." 
Emberclaws smiled and put a talon on Windsoarer's shoulder. "Don't worry, little cousin. They're all yours." 
"Th-thank you so much, big cousin." 
"No problem."
Windsoarer wears her ruby earrings all the time.
Personality
Windsoarer is an introvert, however, she used to never hesitate to lash out and fight when needed. Now that Windsoarer grew weak, she isn't able to move fast enough to strike her opponent and isn't strong enough to overpower her enemy. Even though Windsoarer isn't the same as before, her .+*magical*+. shield prevents anyone from hurting her. Windsoarer likes to spend her time in the libraries, picking scroll after scroll off the shelves and enjoying herself in the action of the scrolls. Her favorite genre is fantasy.
"Oh, wow, so many new scrolls! Come on, Okapi, I want to read all of them!" 
Okapi laughed. "Windsoarer, you obess over scrolls so much! Here, let me help you get those three down..."
Windsoarer always pays attention in class and does her homework. She enjoys doing it. Windsoarer likes to tell Shadowseeker all the new things that sh elevated at school. One might call her a nerd, and that would be true. Windsoarer does not take it as an insult.
"Oh look, the nerd is going to the library!" 
Windsoarer gleefully nodded to the speaker, not realizing that what was just spoken was meant to be an insult. "Yeah, I am! Like all nerds do! He he!"
Windsoarer sometimes lectures other dragonets to do their homework.
"Come on, Storm, do the homework! It's fun, and it will give you a feeling of accomplishment when you're done!" 
Storm, Windsoarer's IceWing classmate, grumbled under his breath. "You can't make me, nerd!" He lunged forward to push her down, but Windsoarer's shield appeared and knocked Storm over. Windsoarer, not taking notice of this, shrugged and headed off to the library.
Windsoarer feels grateful that she has her magical shield, not wanting to stumble home with cuts and scrapes all over her body.
Windsoarer always tries to help others.
"Hey!" Windsoarer shouted at a SandWing beating up a little RainWing. She rushed forward as fast as she could- which wasn't that fast- and pulled the SandWing's tail with all the little strength that she had at the moment. The SandWing whipped around and growled, then prepared to stab Windsoarer. But the moment the SandWing's claws neared toward Windsoarer, her shield appeared and threw the SandWing back. He groaned and slithered away. Windsoarer stepped forward to see if the RainWing was alright.
A SeaWing stumbled toward Windsoarer. "D-do you have any food?" He looked cut up and Windsoarer sensed that he was from a poor family. 
"Yes, here," Windsoarer answered, giving the little SeaWing a basket of fruit and bread. "You can share is with your family." She also handed him a chocolate bar. 
The SeaWing dragonet's eyes widened. "Th-thank you, thank you!" He accepted to food, bowed serveral times, and ambled away. Windsoarer smiled.
History
Windsoarer's parents died in a fire when she was young, leaving Shadowseeker, her older brother, to take care of her. Windsoarer used to help. But one day, a terrible sickness struck Windsoarer. She was feverishly sick for months, and everyone feared she might die. Suddenly, Windsoarer got better. But the sickness had had lasting damage.
Windsoarer was then too weak to do anything.
Windsoarer groaned. "Brother...? Okapi...?" 
Shadowseeker and Okapi rushed over. "Windsoarer!" they cried. "You're awake!" 
The doctor came over. "Don't put too much pressure on her," he warned. "She just woke up after a long, sick coma." 
The doctor ran some tests while Shadowseeker and Okapi stood there, hoping Windsoarer was alright. Windsoarer curled into a ball, shivering under the covers. 
The doctor looked up in surprise. "I can't believe it! Windsoarer, you're completely cured." Shadowseeker and Okapi leaped up with joy at this. Windsoarer sat there, blinking in bewilderment. 
"B-but I feel so weak..." Windsoarer murmured. The doctor sighed. 
"Yes, Windsoarer. You've have the vitals of a weak dragon. And according to my tests...you will stay weak forever."
An animus heard of this and took pity on her. Without Windsoarer knowing, the animus enchanted something so that a magical shield appeared whenever a dragon tried to hurt her, or something accidental happened that threaten to harm Windsoarer.
Relationships
Storyweaver: Storyweaver was Windsoarer's father. She didn't know him well, as he died when she was young. Windsoarer does have a few memories of him, though.
"Dada?" Windsoarer whimpered softly. 
Storyweaver turned back. "Yes, Windy?" 
"Can you wead (read) me a bedtime stowy (story)?" 
"Of course."
Tunelistener: Tunelistener was Windsoarer's mother. She's didn't know her well, as Tunelistener died whenever Windsoarer was young. She does have a few memories of her, though.
"Mama!" Windsoarer bounded to the kitchen. 
Tunelistener hugged her daughter. "Yes, sweetie?" 
"Can we bake cookies together? The choco kind?" 
"Well, of course. Come along, let me show you..."
Shadowseeker: Shadowseeker is Windsoarer's older brother. He cares for her very much. They have a strong, loving bond. When Windsoarer's illness struck, Shadowseeker sat beside her, trying to hold back tears. After he found out that Windsoarer would be weak for the rest of her life, Shadowseeker became much more overprotective, and tried to help her.
Windsoarer staggered into the kitchen. "Good morning, brother." 
Shadowseeker smiled and handed her an apple. "Good morning to you, too, little sister." 
Windsoarer bit into the apple. She finished it and started to walk to the door. Suddenly, Windsoarer felt her legs slip. 
Shadowseeker lunged forward and caught her as she fell. Windsoarer bowed her head. "Thank you,"she said. 
Shadowseeker smiled. "Anytime, sis."
Okapi: Okapi is Windsoarer's best friend. She helped comfort her through her rough times, and generally other thing she only best friends would do. When Windsoarer's illness struck, Okapi visited every day. After she found out that Windsoarer would be weak for the rest of her life, Okapi started to help her more, and basically become way more 'best-friend-forever-and-ever' like.
Windsoarer walked into a meadow. She inhaled the sweet scents of roses and daisies and tulips. 
"Hey there!" A voice shouted from behind her. 
Windsoarer whipped around to find a...vibrant RainWing bouncing on her toes. 
"This place is beautiful, isn't it?" The RainWing glided through the air and brushed a bit of dirt off a petal of a sunflower. 
"It really is..." Windsoarer replied softly. 
The RainWing turned around. "Hey, you know what? Let's be friends! I'm Okapi." 
"I'm Windsoarer." 
"Well, Windsoarer, it's a pleasure to meet you." 
As the two dragonets frolicked around the meadow, Windsoarer sensed that they would have a great friendship.
Diamondtail: Diamondtail is Windsoarer's worst bully. She comes and tries to harm Windsoarer everyday, only to be knocked back by her shield. Diamondtail seems to have a great, seething hatred for Windsoarer, and Windsoarer doesn't know why. She will never hate Diamondtail, but that isn't the other way around. Diamondtail thought that she could take advantage of Windsoarer's weak form, but oh, she was wrong.
"Hey, Windsoarer, I heard that you are so weak now!" Diamondtail called. 
Windsoarer lowered her head. "Please don't-" 
Diamondtail lunged and Windsoarer shrieked, threw her wings over her head, and braced herself for the pain. 
But it never came. 
Windsoarer peaked out from under her wings. "What the..." 
Diamondtail was laying in the ground, gasping for breath. She looked up, saw Windsoarer staring at her, and snarled. Diamondtail hissed a bolt of flame at Windsoarer. But a purple, transparent shield and appearance and deflected the flame. 
One of Diamondtail's friends in the bully group gaped at Windsoarer. "You have superpowers..."they whispered.
Beans: Windsoarer doesn't know what to think of this dragon. She thinks that they are a little weird, but appreciates the fact that they can defend themselves. Windsoarer does think that throwing beans at the haters is a bit abnormal, but a part of her thinks that Bean is cute, not in a romantic way.
"Hi, Bean." Windsoarer said. "Uh. You like beans?" 
Bean grinned. "Heccing yeah!"
Iceover: Windsoarer is confused about this dragon. She knows he is an introvert, but cannot make herself to talk to him.
Windsoarer spotted an IceWing. She remembered his name was Iceover. Looking at him made her shiver, so she quickly scurried away.

An Afterword Written By Windsoarer Herself
Okapi, you were right. Thinking about it, after all these years, makes me realize that. I have done a little bit of research on snails that I won't share here, and I now do know what you meant. Snails have a shell. It protects their squishy body. Otherwise, they would quickly get smashed and squished. Me, I have a weak body. My shield protects me. Without it, I would get pummeled and scratched and scraped.
I have a snail shell.
