Gladiolus the RainWing

THIS CHARACTER IS ABANDONED.
NOTE!!!!! This dragon belongs to Floralities. Don’t touch her without permission!
== Description ==
Gladiolus is a Dark-Born RainWing. Her parents are dead, supposedly. They are addressed as female, since Non-Binary RainWings are(as far as one knows)abnormal.
== Appearance ==
Gladiolus has naturally fuchsia scales, and long limbs suited to climbing and holding onto slick surfaces. Her talons are slightly ridged from her distant IceWing ancestor. Her eyes are permanently a shade of midnight blue, and she is unable to change their colour.
There are ruffs behind her ears and her horns are curved. Sometimes there are gold winding chains around the horns. Her tail drags out behind her, and the necklace covering the cold scratch across her neck is made of copper and moonstone.
== Abilities ==
Gladiolus has camouflage scales, a prehensile tail designed for swinging from branches and elongated fangs which spit venom. She also has a limited animus ability, as she can’t cast more than five spells per day, and they have a limited radius of 15 trees. She knows how to read and write fluently(see History). Unfortunately she’s pretty weak in normal form, in which she can’t fly well in the heat, and is quite sensitive to light and bright colours.
== Personality ==
Gladiolus has three sides. Her first side is kind, and prefers to help rather than harm. However, they are easily swayed and hate NightWings. Her other side is wary, and quiet. They don’t have an opinion on violence, and are snappy if they don’t have enough sleep. Finally, if someone triggers her, she becomes vicious and angry. Luckily this side can be calmed easily.(Side Note: Her list of trigger words for her berserk mode is in Trivia, and must be said in a row.)
== Relationships ==
Princess Spectra(mostly negative, deceased): Spectra wasn’t exactly a friend. The only good thing she ever did for Gladiolus was give her a limited animus ability, and Gladiolus didn’t kill her when she had the chance. They don’t hate each other, but you can’t call them friends. The most they ever were were acquaintance.
== History ==
=== Childhood ===
Gladiolus was born at the stroke of midnight, with her sister and brother. Unfortunately, she was born at the exact same time the tree she was hatched under decided to crash onto her siblings. Her parents assumed she was the murderer. As a Dark-Born, she was isolated and left alone for the majority of her life, leaving her lots of time to learn to read and write. Nobody would speak to her, and she began to use disguises to blend in.
===Meeting Princess Spectra===
Spectra the SkyWing Princess was encountered when Gladiolus was in her SeaWing disguise. Each attempted to kill the other, with Gladiolus pinning down Spectra. The SkyWing Princess gave Gladiolus animus power and Gladiolus let her go. After realising that she had been tricked and it was limited, she spat venom onto the fleeing dragon’s face and stole the necklace off her throat.
=== After Receiving The Scar ===
A few months later, Gladiolus encountered a an IceWing in a ravine. Said IceWing was a Dry-Ice SkyWing-IceWing, and his tail slashed across her throat as he tried to kill her, and in return she used her venom on him. Gladiolus enchanted herself to heal, but the scar was everlasting, so she began to wear the necklace. Ever onwards, she enchanted little things to disguise herself so she would not be caught. Now, she gets on as a mercenary.
==Trivia==
(Her trigger words are Lost, Pineapple, Fire, NightWing, Star, Necklace and Pain)
* Gladiolus’s favourite disguise is the SkyWing-IceWing one named Frostbite, from all 20 of her disguises.
* She hates NightWings, fire, light and the heat of the SandWing desert. She also can’t fly well in the strong heat, and needs to take breaks often.
* Just saying, but the key to disabling her disguise is to talk about her cold burn scar, which gives you time to locate what is casting the disguise, and then snap it off. Most of them are fragile things.Favourite Lines
