"Well I'm sorry, but will you stop staring at me?" 
-Wither
If anyone were to meet him, they would know immediately that he was a bad omen. His scales are so dark, you cannot spot him in low/no light (unless you had night-vision). If you breathed fire near him, his scales would not show up. His scales are pristine, and outlined with grey. His eyes are pale as he is partially blind, but he has extraordinary echolocation and sense of smell. Around his eyes there are also signs of his blindness, a big scar that was created from a fight in Jade Mountain between him and another NightWing.
His claws are curved like a crescent moon, and they are dark grey - a surprising contrast from his scales. His horns are also this shade, but he tried to colour them black with ink when he was a dragonet and failed. They're still slightly splotched because he used permanent ink.
The membranes of his wings have no stars, but the scales at the tips of each part studded with stars the further it goes along.
He wears an earring with a ruby embedded in it and feathers hanging from it in his left ear, which was enchanted to keep his leeching power in control.

"Can you shut up about it? It's not like I kill dragons on purpose. Besides, I have a future. It was told by Memory that I would never die, and I would do great things. But then again, she never said anything about the bad things." 
-Wither
His animus powers are a well known fact in the NightWing tribe, and nobody trusts him because of them. He hates the fact that dragons judge him by the way he looks and his powers rather than the way he acts. His claws are exceptionally sharp, like his hearing and sense of smell. He can hear a whispered conversation from fifty metres away as if it was into his ear.
He can pick up on tiny little sounds like the minute movements of a bored dragonet, even in a crowd. His sense of smell gives him the ability to see back in time to tell where dragons are or even what they're feeling at the moment. 
His more hidden power is his ability to leech life out of others, which can put them into comas or even kill them. The life force of others can boost his senses and even prevent him from dying. This power is what has stopped him from ageing, so he looks like a 20 year old dragon, but his age is in his eyes and the way he holds himself. 
|-|Personality=
"Listen. If you're going to ask such irritating questions, then let me make it clear to you that there will always be more questions than answers in the world, so shut up and don't add any more!" 
-Wither
He is very snappy and hostile towards most of the dragons he meets, but that is not to say that he is like that to everyone. When his parents were still alive, he loved them and they loved him, no matter his powers. They were the only ones who knew about the leeching powers that Wither has, but now he has friends and he has to deal with more dragons knowing about it, because they wouldn't trust him if he kept that secret. Most dragons think of him as an assassin, but he isn't. He pretends not to listen to other dragons' opinions about him, but deep down they hurt like thorns around his heart. 
He feels he hasn't ever been truly happy, but he swears he's fine with it even though he's not. He doesn't like probing or intrusive questions.
He gets grumpy and irritated by a lot of things.
|-|Backstory=
"I can't help who I am or my past, but I can help who I am now, and change who I am for the better. Don't worry about me." 
-Wither
He hatched on any normal night, in a hatchery. His egg was the normal NightWing egg colour. He was the first of his hatching to emerge, and he watched the sunrise and the rainforest and everything else.
He was raised by his parents, and went to Jade Mountain Academy. He left five years after, on his fifteenth hatchday, and went to live with his parents.
But during his time at Jade Mountain he'd been teased and laughed at for his un-NightWing characteristics and was almost kicked out for putting another (particularly mean) NightWing into a coma when he was in a fight. He didn't do it on purpose, but everyone assumed that it was his animus magic that did it. He was hated a lot during his entire life, and he only truly felt safe at home.
