== Appearance ==
=== General appearance ===
Mostly looks like a skywing, but with some nightwing features.
Her eyes are orange, and her sclera is the bright blue of a typical firescales.
Inferno has red scales with slightly lighter underbelly and wing membrane. Bright orange lines resembling cracks are all over inferno's body, and almost seem to glow. She has black horns and has black scales in certain areas, though still with the undercurrent of glowing orange. She also has scattered, glowing orange 'star scales' in her wing membrane. 
She has extremely long claws and horns, a long face and large cheekbones, she is very tall and intimidating, quite muscular but still slender. 
=== Accessories ===
Inferno has silver piercings in her right eye-ridge and nostril, and several silver bands on her legs, tail, and wings. She has five silver spikes lodged into the end of her tail, making it resemble an icewing's. There is clear scarring around the spikes. There is also several spikes at the tips of each wing. 
== Powers and Skills ==
=== Tribal abilities ===
Large wings/speed from skywing side, dark scales from nightwing side.
=== Fire ===
Her fire is more purplish/blueish-colored than normal fire. It's heat is excruciating and efficient. 
=== Future-seeing ===
Can only see very briefly into the future. She uses it to predict her enemy's next move, and to pin-point their weaknesses.
=== Firescales ===
Inferno has a toned down version of firescales, as she is a hybrid. It is much weaker, and doesn't work underwater or on anything wet or frozen, but she can still burn dragons if she holds them long enough. 
=== Fighting skills ===
Inferno is an excellent combatant with a variety of weapons, as well as with her bare talons.
== History ==
Her parents lived on an island not too far from the nightwing kingdom, hiding away as they were of different tribes. They knew they couldn't live on the mainland, or the nightwing island, otherwise they would be punished for their relationship. 
She was born with her brother, Pumice, who wasn't killed by her firescales but severely burnt. Her parents had locked her in her room while they tended to Pumice and tried to figure out what to do with her. They tried to keep her, as Torch, their mother, had heard of the 'affliction' of firescales. Because of her hybrid nature, Inferno's firescales was not as strong, so it was easier for her to function as long as she didn't let her scales rest on anything for too long. 
The uneasy peace that Torch and Starkiller had tried to bring to their children did not last long, when the nightwings finally came across their island. They brought Starkiller, Inferno, and Pumice back to the nightwing island, and told Torch never to return or else they would kill her. They did not want news of nightwings 'poisoning' their bloodline to pass on to the mainland, where they had to maintain their reputation. 
Starkiller was put back on the partner program, as the lack of hatchings on the island meant no healthy nightwing of breeding age were to go to waste. Pumice was integrated with the other nightwings, as he had a nightwing body structure and was greyish in colour (other than his orange eyes) and NightWing dragonets were needed. 
Inferno, on the other hand, was made into a weapon. Inferno is 60 DY old, and was born 40 years before the War of SandWing Succession, so it would seem that there would be no reason for the NightWings to desire a dragon like her as a weapon, but the NightWings were always cunning, controlling their image with an iron talon and manipulating Pyrrhian politics through the use of clever assassinations and unfortunate 'accidents'. 
Inferno was the perfect specimen, because her firescales (firescales being mostly unheard of at the time, when all firescales were executed quietly and Peril wasn't famous yet) caused mysterious burning deaths which couldn't be traced back to any one tribe's abilities. She grew into a legend among the tribes, earning the nickname of 'The Flaming Phantom'. 
Eventually she was tasked with killing a SeaWing princess, a pale blue dragon by the name of Moonlight. Unsure of why, Inferno could not bring herself to kill the dragon. She fled, in shame, knowing she could not return to the NightWing Island with her target still living, so she lived alone for many years, before finding some other unusual dragons who needed refuge. They built a small town together, Inferno becoming somewhat of a leader in the community, as well as learning trades and becoming a merchant. 
Until, eventually, she came face to face with Moonlight again. 
(story will be continued in a fanfic I'm planning to write, lesbian romance/adventure of course)
