Khamsin

“Hear no evil.”
 
I was born in that summer when the sun didn't shineI was given the name that doesn't feel like it's mineLived my life as the good boy I was told I should bePrayed every night to a religion that was chosen for me
“I’m Khamsin; Queen Thorn’s currently most unremarkable dragonet. But not for long. The winds are shifting and I think you’re the dragon that’s going to help me make that change. That is, you’re going to help me, right?””~Khamsin

You don’t recognize her at first. Most dragons don’t, despite her being the third daughter of the queen—a fact you’re quick to realize as your gaze flicks to her ears, pierced with golden chain earrings in a fashion akin to the likeliness of diamonds, fit to match the colours of her horns and her claws and the tips of her chin. 
You scramble into a bow before her, murmuring empty apologies (she wasn’t going to be the next queen, after all, you do not owe her your respect). She doesn’t seem flattered or even remotely convinced by your fake pleasantries, her deep brown eyes narrowed. But then she sighs, lightly, disappointingly, and, her slender form bristing with discontentment, she slips past you to continue her wandering through the halls.
Khamsin’s scales were a warm red sienna, lightening somewhat near her underbelly and speckled with dark spots along the back of her neck, rear and front legs, and her tail tip. Speckles dominated the bottom half of her wings, too, where the membrane met her scales, in a gold and orange gradient. Her barb was golden, orange blossoming at the base. She had a dark brown sail and a brownish white underbelly, which gradually shifted into the same light sienna as her scales.
Khamsin always loved to dress up—it was rare to find her without several pieces of jewelry adorning her frame. Her choice of accessories were always extravagant and sometimes uncomfortable: golden crowns bedazzled with black gems heavy enough to weigh down on her head and long necklaces that dragged along the stronghold floors.

P E R S O N A L I T Y
Despite all of her power-hungry ambition, Khamsin was a dragon that expected things to simply fall into her open, awaiting claws. 
She dreamt of being queen and deeply envied her sister because of it, but was unwilling to put in the same work that she did. Instead, she was far more interested in the loopholes she could take to obtain what she believed to be her birthright. She was a fairly envious individual in general, harbouring a deep jealousy for the attributes and achievements of others that she simply didn’t (and likely would never) possess.
Fairly self-conscious, Khamsin craved recognition and attention from her peers and would go to extreme lengths to achieve this, uncaring of who she might hurt in the process. This likely stemmed from her doubts that she could ever compare to her siblings, who both had been doing extraordinary things for their tribe from a very young age, and her fear of being forgotten and considered unmemorable. Her desire for power and recognition, paired with her unwillingness to work for what she wanted easily fed into her naivety, something that was easily exploited by those around her. 
If one were looking for sympathy and selflessness, they wouldn’t find any from her. It wasn’t her intention to be purposely malicious. She just never found any sensible reason to prioritize others’ needs or wants over her own. 
Even while ignoring all of this, not many found her to be good company. Her bitterness had made her rude, snarky, and judgemental. Unless you were close with her—which very dragons were—it was unlikely to endure a conversation with her without an insult or two leaving her tongue.

PositiveDovev was the only dragon Khamsin could truly call a friend. A best friend, even. Very rarely could they be found apart in their free time, traversing through the stronghold with heads bowed together, voices lowered in hushed whispers. The two loved to exchange gossip. 
She found herself trusting them and putting her faith in them, even confiding in them about her fears of being inadequate and her desire to rule. In return, they reassured her that her feelings were valid and offered her advice for dealing with them. She felt like they were the only one that truly understood her, and deeply admired them.
