Queen Half Moon

Queen Half Moon was an adult female NightWing who was the first Queen of her own tribe since Queen Battlewinner. She founded the NightWing Independence Movement and is primarily responsible for the dissipation of the South Pyrrhian Empire and founding of the new Night Queendom. She hatched under a full moon, granting her mind-reading powers, which she only used against her RainWing adversaries. She was married twice, and had a dragonet from each marriage, Prince Grimbringer and the next NightWing queen, Queen Lunar. 
==Appearance==
Queen Half Moon was small and lithe, with warm, dark brown scales. One of the most notable things about her, is that she had patches and splotches of white scattered all over her body, described as looking like clouds of snow obscuring the night sky. Some of the white appeared on her otherwise gray horns and claws, and the star-like scales on her wings were black where the white was as well. Half Moon's horns curled downwards, unlike most members of her tribe, and her claws hooked like crescents in the night sky. She had golden dots running along her neck, back and tail, which were also covered by her white patches, and her silver teardrop scales behind her eyes were hard to see. Half Moon also had hooded, gold eyes.
Half Moon rarely wore jewelry, aside from a pale amber and onyx necklace that looked like a half-moon. The queen had tiny holes in her tongue, ears and wing membranes, suggesting she had those areas pierced and wore more jewelry. 
Many of the RainWing propaganda at the time described her as unnaturally long, with snake-like eyes and a hiss to her voice. They also depicted her as pure white and blood-stained talons, with her half-moon necklace looking twisted and as if it were made of decayed plants. Some dragons still believe she looked like this.
==Personality==
Queen Half Moon was fierce, loyal, quick, witty and intelligent in multiple areas. She came off as strong and confrontational, which she was, and was feared by the RainWings during the NightWing independence movement. The queen was very quick to defend those she cared about, which was nearly the whole tribe, and often liked doing tasks and favors her friends asked her to do. She was also very orderly and was aware of her surroundings and ongoings of the queendom. She was never afraid to speak her mind, and she was loud, and could rally dragons behind her cause with her charisma alone. Half Moon was also quick on her feet and spoke quickly as well. She also made witty and sarcastic comments, especially if she was annoyed.
She was also considerate, motherly and protective of those she cared about, and a great listener as well. Half Moon dedicated much of her time to listening to her subjects' problems and trying to find resolves to them. Before making a major decision, Half Moon would consider futures and outcomes, especially with the help of her seers. She liked and deeply cared for dragonets, and spoke in a sweet, calm voice to them while making herself smaller to become less intimidating if they found her such.

|-|Pre-Hatching=
Half Moon's parents were low-income NightWings who once lived in a nicer part of the South Pyrrhian Empire, however, were forced to live in the original NightWing village because Empress Mango didn't want NightWings, specifically poor NightWings, intermingling with other tribes. Half Moon's parents also had two older dragonets, which would make Half Moon the youngest. Her parents, on the initial date that her egg was supposed to hatch, didn't bring it outside due to her egg not being scheduled to hatch on the full moons. However, when the dates passed, they took her egg outside on the night it hatched in hopes of her gaining prophecy and mind reading powers. 
|-|Dragonethood=
Half Moon was the youngest dragonet of her family. She had two older brothers, both of whom got less and less attention after Half Moon hatched and resented her from a young age. However, this did not strongly impact Half Moon, especially since after starting school at nearly two years old, which she became very fond of. From a young age in school, she was taught the horrors of her tribe and their past and the bad dragons in it; Darkstalker, Ex-Queen Battlewinner, Mastermind, and many, many more. She was also taught that RainWings saved them and were the only ones who gave them a chance, so they should be eternally grateful and respectful to the tribe.
Half Moon had done exactly this and put RainWings before herself and family. Nobody in the family had suspected anything wrong or unfair with the school curriculum, and they allowed Half Moon to participate in extracurricular activities that included things like fruit gathering, cleaning RainWing homes, babysitting RainWing dragonets, and gardening for RainWings.
