Shima

== Appearance ==
Shima isn't a very unique SandWing at first glance. Her scales are a pastel faded light gold, blended together to look like a desert. She has an incredibly pale tan, almost white underbelly, with buttermilk yellow undertones. Those colors are all common SandWing colors, but her wing membranes and sail are a different story. Just like her mother, she has baby pink fins atop her head and jawline. Though, Shima's fins are more of a peachy pink in color, and her wing membranes fade into a lighter shade of ballet pink. Her talons and horns are a light sandstone rosewood red, but look as if they're faded in the sun. Another unique feature is her tail-barb, which has currently not developed yet. It's dark gold in color, with two electric blue glowing markings, reminiscent of her eyes. 
== Personality ==
Shima is what you would expect of an incredibly hyper four year old. It's like she bounces off the walls (sometimes literally) and cannot stop talking. And also, Shima is INCREDIBLY loud, even when she's supposed to use her nonexistent indoor voice. Shima always has something to say about everything, so she's incredibly frustrated when her softer-spoken siblings take their time to respond. She also needs plenty of activities to do throughout the day so that her siblings can prevent a meltdown. When she's bored or mad, Shima has her mothers temper (though on a much smaller and petty scale). Despite how little she is, that little ball of energy is INCREDIBLY protective and loving of her family. Bullies will be "annihilated" (thrown into a wall, nearly drowned) because of her powers' tendency to go out of control when Shima's loved ones are being threatened. 
== History ==
Her father, Lion, was a kind and wealthy dragon. He owned a large oasis town that desperate travelers would come to for food and water. It was a safe space, protected by those who lived there. Disease and homelessness was nearly nonexistent with the hospital and shelters. Lion funded projects that delivered water to towns in need of assistance. 
These acts of selflessness attracted Mizu, who was travelling along the western coast and spotted a beautiful looking town. They met casually in the streets, Mizu disguised as a beautiful SandWing dragoness. Lion fell deeply in love with her, and they spent almost all of their time together. But Mizu still had to leave eventually, back to the sea. So when she told Lion about Shima, she was saddened, and slipped up while talking. She mentioned the sanctuary, a place where their child would be safe. Two days later, she was gone. 
Lion was incredibly heartbroken, but never changed teh attitude that the goddess had been attracted to in honor of her memory. Shima was named after her mothers' idea of what her name should be. (Shima means Island, according to google translate). Unlike her calm, gentle parents, she was an energetic handful, especially as a magical little princess toddler. While Shima was this age, Lion tried to find out what the sanctuary was, and a scout heard him discussing what it could be with a civilian. After cautiously approaching him, the scout realized that the dragoness he was talking about may have been a Kami. 
Of course, the scout felt the sixth sense, that feeling of familiarity when they met Shima, they were just wary because she was incredibly young at the time. 
However, after Lion picked up on the tone that she may be in danger, off to the sanctuary she went. (With MANY hugs and goodbyes of course). 
Instantly, Shima bonded with her half-siblings they 
== Abilities ==
Shima's main ability is nephokenesis, so her powers only work when it's humid. She can manipulate the water droplets in the air. Being young, she can only control small amounts of water droplets to form, well, bullets. As seen in the personality section, her powers are stronger and out of control when her friends and family are in danger. Shimas' enraged subconscious will manipulate the water in the air below or around the offender, throwing them into walls or trees. One time she launched a dragonet on top of the library after he was picking on Miri. She can also dry out the air or draw water into the air like a humidifier and dehumidifier. Also, she threw a cactus at one kid once, not really an ability but It sure did happen.
Being only one to two years old, Shima's tail barb has not developed yet, so she can't sting people. Its a bit dull and small at the moment, so she can poke people with it without poisoning them.
