Appearance
Cottonwood seems more unique than other average LeafWings. Aer horns are curved outward, and aer scales are forest-green with darker green speckles all over aer body. Cottonwood also is a bit scary-looking, due to the weirdly stretched horns. Ae has amber-orange eyes that looks like flowing lava, and Cottonwood's webbings are ragged and dull, which makes aer more menacing. Ae has a small ball of fluffy cotton at the end of aer tail.
Personality
Cottonwood is generally very excitable and nosy unlike aer frightening appearance. Ae is very curious about whatever those are existing in the world, and ae would do anything to search what ae doesn't know. However, Cottonwood sometimes get into a big trouble, due to aer stubborn personality. 
Abilities
Cottonwood has a strong leafspeak, unlike Maple or aer brother Sycamore. However, the leafspeak is not strong as Sundew's, and Cottonwood only uses it when ae has to study plants. Still, ae is very proud of aer leafspeak power.
History
Cottonwood was born in 5,009 AS in the SapWing village, along with aer brother Sycamore. Ae was quite normal, curious, and totally an ordinary LeafWing. Many dragons liked to play with aer.
One day, Cottonwood found a new kind of plant that the teachers didn't tell aer, and ae became more curious about this new plant. Cottonwood used aer leafspeak to find out more about the plant, and ae told the teachers about the research. The teachers were pretty fascinated about this prodigy LeafWing.
Cottonwood studied more and more about the dangerous plants in The Poison Jungle until the HiveWing struck the village. Paralyzed by terror, Cottonwood managed to make a few important kinds of plants stick to aer body and go to the distant kingdom together. Aer father strongly disagreed with Cottonwood, but ae was very stubborn of aer ideas. 
Cottonwood and the other LeafWings arrived to Pyrrhia few days later. The IceWing Queen, Queen Snowfall, was not fond of the idea of taking strangers into her kingdom, and she sent the dragons away. Cottonwood became furious and wanted to harm her with her plants. However, aer parents also resisted doing like that to the queen of an unknown tribe. Cottonwood befriended Violet, who was from a hive. 
Cottonwood returned to Pantala when the eleven representatives saved the continent as a helper to move the Pyrrhian trees to Pantala with Violet. Ae continued to study the remaining plants of the poison jungle along with the Pyrrhian trees, and Cottonwood and aer lieutenant Violet were known as noble biologists in the tribe.
Relationships
Maple:
Maple is Cottonwood's friend, and ae is close with her. However, ae isn't really close with Maple as Sycamore, and ae often ignores her by accident. Maple tries to be friendly to Cottonwood, no matter how ae plays with Sycamore more than her. 
Sycamore:
Sycamore is Cottonwood's brother, and ae loves to play-fight with him. Sycamore and Cottonwood are best at tricking dragons since they understand each other well. However, they always get into conflict whenever their opinions are different, so they are not really friendly as best friends, and Cottonwood sometimes annoy him for no reason.
Violet:
Violet is Cottonwood's assistant, and fae is very fond of Violet and her abilities. On the other side, Violet likes Cottonwood like ae's her sibling. However, they do not want any relationships between them since Violet's asexual and Cottonwood is questioning aer orientation identity.
