Sidewinder (Spiney)

==Introduction==
Sidewinder is a SandWing who writes many of the current era encyclopedias. He is also a huuuuge animal nerd. 
== Name==
He's named after the sidewinder snake, specifically Crotalus cerastes.
It was once Sandstone, a type of sedimentary rock.
== Development==
Sidewinder originated in the game Wings of Fire Early Access and was created for the sake of having a SandWing character. Minor changes were made before being token into a Joy Ang base and got a few spots to go along with it.
==Design==
Sidewinder has light sand-colored scales, with darker brown stripes wrapping around his body. He has flecks of even lighter and darker yellow and brown sprinkled along the top of his back, right next to his orangey-brown sail. He has faint ink stains on his talons, alongside his back claws. His underscale color starts on his bottom jaw.
== Personality ==
Sidewinder is very informal, and got many A's in class. He knows lots of things about animals, especially ones from the desert. He is basically the know-it-all of his group of friends. He gets envious of dragons who know something that he doesn't. He takes his job with pride with writing encyclopedic scrolls of his interests. He's very talkative, but would love to get to know new faces.
==History==
In school, Sidewinder was awarded lots of science fair and essay awards. Due to these accomplishments, he was chosen to be the lead encyclopedia writer of the Kingdom of Sand, and still is. He met his friends (Catatumbo, Arapaima, Thaw, Mockingbird) basking near an oasis in the Kingdom of Sand, close to the Sky Kingdom.
In his present life, Sidewinder has addressed love to Mockingbird. She's said that she don't love him in that way, but would love to stay close friends. Sidewinder and Mockingbird still meet up at certain places from time to time. Other than that, Sidewinder will adopt a miniature SandWing dragonet named Pika in the near future. He will care for Pika and even would share early drafts of his scrolls with her (not that she knows what anything means from it). He's very content, and keeps a sturdy workflow. About the rest of his group, he still loves them more than he did when he first met them.
== Abilities==
Like any SandWing, Sidewinder has venom in his tail, fire breath, and can stay without water longer than other tribes. He also expels minor heat from his sunbakes scales.
==Trivia==
* His favorite animals are the roadrunner and the jerboa
*His scales are loosely based off my pet bearded dragon, named Dune
