Brimstone the SilkWing

"After all, it’s only a council meeting. What are you so worried about?"
Brimstone is an adult SilkWing who was introduced in the prologue of The Buried Secrets. She lived in the savanna next to the LeafSilk Kingdom on Pantala (with Hawkmoth). She lives in a tiny hut with a large supply of books (actually Hawkmoth's hut), and enjoys pasta (because why not?). She was named after a butterfly that looked like a leaf because she was descended from LeafWings. She has six cousins, two uncles, and four aunts.
This next paragraph has spoilers for The Buried Secrets. If you don't want spoilers, then don't read this part.
Brimstone was killed by a jaguar when invited to a "vacation" to a dangerous part of the LeafSilk Kingdom. Her companion, Hawkmoth, went with her but wasn't killed, but was badly wounded. Brimstone didn't leave any descendants, except her one and only son, Redspot. 
=== Appearance (no spoilers) ===
Brimstone has green scales that comes in many shades, and yellow, fainted dots cover her entire body. She is usually seen with a leather pouch with useful stuff in it, including:
* A dagger
* Two pens
* A sculpture that she gave to Redspot before she went to the Poison Jungle
Brimstone represents a Common Brimstone in real life. 
=== Personality ===
Brimstone is an optimist, which means that she sees the good in just about everything. She is cheerful around almost anything and enjoys sleeping, and doesn't understand why Hawkmoth doesn't like it. She was eager to join the council as a participant to vote on the new SilkWing, HiveWing, and LeafWing queens. (spoilers ahead!) Before Brimstone died, she loved being a council member and helped a lot with the problems that the three Pantalan tribes faced. 
She likes being an optimist and apparently got that "skill" from her uncle, Limnetron. Her mother, Peacock, doesn't like Brimstone being an optimist as her "job", and dislikes her in general, but was still grieved when Brimstone died. However, Brimstone's father, Cabbage, hated Brimstone ever since she was born, and was as happy as a SilkWing getting their new wings when Brimstone died.
=== History ===
Brimstone was born in the depths of Hornet Hive, and raised by her grandmother, Bluet. Bluet was kind to her granddaughter, giving her food and treating her as good as how Katydid treated Cricket. Brimstone loved Bluet and was heartbroken when she died, which was also the time where she was sent to her real parents both in Vinegaroon Hive, where Peacock, her mother, and Cabbage, her father, took care of her. 
When Brimstone went to school, the school bully, Indianmeal, bullied and teased her, but her classmate Saturniid was kind to her. Saturniid told her that he once saw a LeafWing in the corner of his eye, and they became quick friends. That LeafWing was named Larch, and Brimstone, Saturniid, and Larch became a cheerful trio, even though Larch couldn't be seen. But that was back in Hornet Hive. 
When Brimstone went to Vinegaroon Hive, HiveWings made fun of her, and many dragons hissed at her because she was green and looked kind of like a LeafWing. Brimstone was always depressed at Vinegaroon Hive, and Lady Vinegaroon's visit wasn't much better. Soon, Brimstone hid from school, away from her parents, and lived two years' lifetime like that.
As Brimstone grew, her metamorphosis grew closer and closer. Her cousins, Xami, Plume, and Magpie visited her the most, making sure she was fine. Brimstone liked her cousins and all her family members, even Mint, who was already dead generations ago, and Cabbage, whom hated her. 
Everything changed once Brimstone had her metamorphosis. She was engulfed in darkness until she came out of her cocoon in Vinegaroon Hive, where she was woken up mind-controlled by Wasp. However, that only lasted a moment, because then Wasp was defeated and Brimstone was in her normal self. 
After hearing that Bloodworm and Mantis Hive were destroyed, Brimstone figured that she was rather safe now, and then went to the savanna, near the under construction LeafSilk Kingdom. Brimstone then met her uncle, Limnetron, in the savanna as well. Then, they developed a relationship, and Limnetron took care of Brimstone, and in return, Brimstone gave him gifts as a reward to thank him for all his care and support. Brimstone became an optimist because of her time with Limnetron.
Brimstone grew older and older, and so did her uncle. Soon, Limnetron died, making Brimstone extremely heartbroken, but she knew she couldn't die of grief right now. So, she found a nearby hut and went inside it, and nervously knocked, hoping that there wasn't a HiveWing in there.
Fortunately for Brimstone, a SilkWing opened the door and kindly let Brimstone in. They chatted cheerfully about their lives, and by then, she knew that the SilkWing's name was Hawkmoth.
Brimstone and Hawkmoth grew to be really close friends, and even Brimstone's weird grandfather, Shadowdragon, visited them often. Brimstone lived the rest of her life in Hawkmoth's hut, until she was invited to be one of the SilkWing council members. Brimstone lived a happy life after that, until they were called to one of the most important council meetings, where everyone had to give a speech. 
Hawkmoth spent the whole night cramming, while Brimstone slept until about midnight, hearing pages flip in a book, so looked up to see Hawkmoth. Brimstone convinced Hawkmoth to go back to sleep, but then the meeting was canceled the next morning because of a murder on the second floor. Hawkmoth and Brimstone recognized the dragon as Cedar, Queen Hazel's LeafWing advisor, and then Saturniid invited Brimstone to the Poison Jungle with Larch, for a vacation.
Hawkmoth decided to come too, and knowing that there was a LeafWing with them, they headed out eagerly into the jungle. (Spoiler alert ahead!!!) Brimstone ended up being killed by a jaguar less than fifteen minutes into the jungle, but Hawkmoth survived but was badly wounded. 
After Brimstone was killed, her work got carried on. SilkWings researched her work, and were impressed with the efforts she'd put in it. They asked Hawkmoth many questions about Brimstone, and Hawkmoth became a celebrity because of Brimstone. Brimstone's work was greatly appreciated, and the council started inviting LeafWings as well because of the fact that Brimstone was descended from a famous LeafWing named Mint.
Brimstone had became a Pantalan celebrity, along with Hawkmoth, and there is even a special holiday named Leaf Day, made to honor the start of inviting LeafWings to the council, and the work done by Brimstone and her partner, Hawkmoth.
=== Relationships ===
==== Hawkmoth ====
Positive
Brimstone is very close with Hawkmoth and they share a hut together. They get along pretty often, although sometimes they disagree a little with each other. (spoiler alert ahead!) When Brimstone died, Hawkmoth was depressed, showing his care for Brimstone. Brimstone loves Hawkmoth very much and would do partically anything to help her. Hawkmoth and Brimstone definitely have a great relationship and depend on each other to survive.
==== Saturniid ====
Positive-Neutral
The first time they met, Brimstone saw Saturniid as an annoying, unlikable dragon. They disliked each other heavily and didn't talk to each other either. However, once Saturniid saved Brimstone's life in school, she started seeing Saturniid's personality differently. After a few years, they were close friends and were sad when they had to be separated. When Saturniid invited Brimstone to the Poison Jungle, Brimstone agreed.
==== Larch ====
Positive
Before Wasp was defeated and Brimstone saw Larch, she was absolutely horrified. However, once they started spending more time with each other, Brimstone and Larch became quick friends. Brimstone saw Larch as a helpful and compassionate dragon, while Larch saw Brimstone as a kind and optimistic SilkWing. When Brimstone and Larch met Saturniid, they became a friend trio.
==== Cedar ====
Neutral
Brimstone doesn't know much about the scarred LeafWing advisor, but she thinks of him as a fair but strict advisor. On the other hand, Cedar's friend, Comma, is rude to Brimstone, so she is uncertain about Cedar's personality.
==== Comma ====
Negative-Neutral
Brimstone dislikes Comma because she once threatened to kill her if she disobeyed her rules. Comma and Brimstone have a bad relationship between each other, and Brimstone always refers to her as "the grumpiest grump on the continent". 
==== Redspot ====
Positive-Neutral
Brimstone doesn't know much about her son, Redspot, because he didn't even hatch yet before she died. However, Brimstone thinks her son is going to be fair and kind, and take her place when she is too old for the council. (spoilers ahead!) Hawkmoth took care of Redspot when Brimstone died, and legends say that Brimstone's spirit still takes care of Redspot, even though she died already.
