Moonblink

A young NightWing hatched under a single full moon. She is capable of predicting the future, but was born completely blind. Most of her visions are mundane, but every once in a while she happens to predict something truly extraordinary. She struggles with trying to interpret her visions, though she does receive help from Parrot, who does her best to try and help Moonblink interpret those visions.

Orientation: Bisexual
Theme Song: "Paper Forest (In The Afterglow of Rapture)" by Emmy the Great

==Personality==
Quick-thinking and shy. She is very cautious of her surroundings, relying on her hearing to guide her around. Whenever there is no sound, she clicks her talons on the ground beneath her and listens to the echo. However, this isn't the most effective method, as she has trouble "hearing" unmoving objects. This frustrates her immensely, and she has been known to let out a snarl or two whenever she accidentally slams her talons against a table or corner of a wall. 
She has difficulty socializing, and has a stutter when she speaks. However, that won't stop her from getting excited when speaking about a topic she cares about. This causes her speech to be jumbled up due to the fact that her mind is racing while she's trying to talk. When she does catch herself rambling, she will become shy and apologetic. 
==Appearance==
Milky white eyes, black scales with blue undertones, three white scales following the curve of her cheekbones and a small stripe of white scales down her snout. Horns are similar to those of an addax. Her scales are covered in bruises from bumping into things (including other dragons). 
==Abilities==
Can glimpse the future, but is still incapable of "seeing" during her visions. She interprets her visions through sound, smell, and occasionally touch.
==History==
(CURRENTLY BEING REVAMPED)
Thirteen years ago, Moonblink's mother fled the volcanic island after she had her first egg. More and more dragons were dying of starvation, and she couldn't bear to subject her little one to the same suffering. She abandoned her tribe - including her mate - and flew across the sea with her egg in her arms. She wandered for weeks on end, hiding in the rainforest and making her way across the mountains, searching for somewhere she could start a new life with her dragonet. Her search ended when she came across the Scorpion Den. To her immense relief, she was welcomed into the community. Not long after that, her first and only dragonet hatched. She named the dragonet "Moonblink" for her large white eyes, which reminded her of the full moon her daughter was hatched beneath. 
Moonblink was curious as a dragonet, wanting to explore every inch of her desert home. However, she was never able to go far, her mother never letting her stray out of her sight for fear that her daughter would get lost and end up wandering into the desert. 
Because her visions can only be observed through sound, scent, and touch, she spent a good portion of her dragonethood believing she was constantly hearing things that weren't real. In a sense, she was, but she had no idea that what she was hearing simply had yet to become real. The day she realized what exactly it was she was observing was the day she met a strange RainWing by the name of Parrot. 
She had known about the RainWing, of course. Almost everyone in the Scorpion Den knew about the strange brightly-colored dragon that slept in hammocks she had left hanging all around the city. Other dragons had tried to take them down or shoo the dragonet away, but she always came back to her favorite napping spots. Moonblink always found it amusing whenever she could hear the snoring of the RainWing somewhere on a seemingly random building or structure. 
==Relationships==
Parrot: Currently dating. They were best friends when they were growing up together, and their relationship turned into a romantic one soon after they became adults. Parrot will often read aloud to Moonblink, write for her, and mimic the sounds of birds that she likes. They cuddle with each other during Parrot's Sun Time and share prickly pears with one another.
==Extras==
*Her name is based off another term used for Nycaloptia, or "night blindness", which is the inability to see in dim light or at night.
