Terra Nova

Terra Nova is a female IceWing belonging to FourFlames.
She appears in the fanfiction Third Antinomy as the guardian figure assigned to the training of Pyrenees, and the reluctant personal assistant to Hegemony.
== Description ==
===Markings===
In direct light, Terra Nova has smooth grey dorsal scales-- like a whale calf-- and ventral scales like polished silver. There is a slight glacial-blue tint to shadows that fall on her, like light occluded through ice, which makes her seem more colorful.
Racing-stripes of arctic blue run down either side of her body. This continues as a ribbony trim across the exterior edge of her wings.
===Body===
Her tall horns resemble ship masts, with three barred prongs on either side of them. Her head is described as sleek and her snout is fairly long and wolfish.
In the center of her chest is a dark burn site from an incident with Cloudfire. A long scar also runs down one of her back legs, from when a metal girder cut it open during a cave-in.
== Personality ==
Terra Nova is a dissatisfied underling who considers herself capable of turning down any command that she personally takes offense to-- resentfully and begrudgingly making some exceptions. She is known to abandon orders when such disobedience is conducted for her own personal health or for practicality, though as a matter of principle, she's not eager to demonstrate disloyalty to her organization's cause. She only lacks ambition when she's conserving her efforts, or perhaps if she feels like pushing another dragon's buttons by defying them. She is highly aloof, an incredibly inaccessible and difficult dragon to work with, and it's miraculous she hasn't been fired for her insolence.
She tends to make life harder for herself due to her self-righteous spontaneity.
Terra Nova is ironically not fond of dragonets, but unlike Harper, it's not because she sees them as pathetic competition. She's afraid of being responsible for forming a dragon's character through her own behavioral model, a fear that was only exacerbated after she was assigned to Pyrenees as a guardian. She knows she's a hypocrite and is personally cautious of the idea of parenting, especially because of her wanting commitment. 
It's important to know that Terra Nova is not a very loud individual, outside of her role as an instructor. Many of her acts of defiance are sudden and without warning, these plans being composed through her own inner monologues.
== Background ==
Military background-- educated specifically in subtype self-defense and elimination. Hired to Hegemony as his personal assistant on the prophecy substitution project, though she did not realize it was to help him with raising (not just containing) the dragonets.
