A P P E A R A N C ERiverdew looks mostly like a SeaWing, but he has a RainWing ruff that can change colors. He normally keeps it the same color as his main scales, fading into soft pale brown. 
Riverdew's main scale color is pale sky-blue, the color of rivers and water, with pale brown the color of a fawn's soft, brown fur fading into his blue scales around his spine. He has pale creamy-pink horns and claws. His wings are strange, a pale sky blue color fading into a soft, pale brown near the edges, with royal SeaWing patterns swirled around them. 
He has warm, green eyes that are often unreadable, however, sometimes a few emotions get through. he is rather skinny compared to the average-sized RainWings and SeaWings, and small for a dragonet his age. 
P E R S O N A L I T YRiverdew is shy and thoughtful. He is strangely intelligent, though he lacks the boldness and confidence his mother has. He will not voice his opinions if he thinks that there's no reason to. 
He is also very empathetic, always trying to do his best to help others. he dislikes breaking promises, dragons being angry at him, and being yelled at. Despite this, he can be a good liar, to protect his loved ones.
He cares about all the dragons he meet, even ones he doesn’t know or even his enemies. He likes to believe that all dragons have some good inside them. Despite not wanting to be near so many dragons due to the fear of (maybe) the dragon going to kill him (and his fear of contamination), Riverdew is very empathetic towards strangers. 
Riverdew is very mysterious in a way. No one can think of what he is thinking about, and only well-known dragons he has ever shared a secret with, however, no one has been told all of his secrets. 
He often has worried thoughts of things he might accidentally do to harm someone, or, images form in his mind of him harming a friend or a family member. Especially his parents. 
He is quite used to getting talked over, if he talks at all. He feels most comfortable with his parents, Kinkajou and Turtle, and his sister, Misty.
Riverdew likes everything to be neat and tidy. If a single scroll is out of order on his shelf, he would spend a few minutes arranging it so that it looks fitting. 
H I S T O R Y
Pre-Hatching
Basically everything from the canon relationship between Kinkajou and Turtle. Starting off five years after Arc 3...
Kinkajou lived in the rainforest, and Turtle lived in the Kingdom of Sea, but, of course, the members of the former Jade Winglet often gathered to meet each other in Sanctuary. Kinkajou slowly grew closer to Turtle, until they were officially partners (just like Qibli and Moon, just a platonic relationship).
Then Kinkajou and Turtle moved out of their homes, moving to an isolated place in between the Mud Kingdom and the Kingdom of the Sea, facing east of the Pyrrhian coast. They built a small hut there, and lived there for two more years. 
Then they... did a thing, and soon, two eggs were created. 
Dragonet
Two eggs, one pale blue, one gray-green. 
Inside of brittle, crisp leaves that formed into a nest made of sticks and twigs, two eggs hatched. One female, one male. The female was gray-green and dark green, and most dominantly a SeaWing. The male was pale blue and fawn and looked more like a RainWing. 
Turtle and Kinkajou both were overjoyed at their hatching. Kinkajou named the male Riverdew, while the female was dubbed Misty. The lovers gave the two dragonets equal love, equal time. They switched staying with the newborns, one out hunting (either for prey or for fruits) and cleaning the hut. 
Riverdew was easily the most shy dragonet out of his hatching, which, to be fair, only consisted of two dragonets including himself - his sister, Misty. While Misty was outgoing and extroverted, making new friends almost everywhere she went, Riverdew took more of his father's path, staying unnoticable and lying in the shadows. Not a bad thing, but it didn't help with his social anxiety. 
Then Kinkajou and Turtle sent him to school, only at the age of one. His school is somewhat close to Possibility, in between SandWing and SkyWing territory. It's a pretty big school, built to resemble a cave, but is actually on ground, with nice lights and cool air-conditioner. Riverdew was very much terrified for this, as he hated social interactions. Misty, on the other talon, was overjoyed. 
Riverdew didn't have any friends for the first week. He spent half the day in lessons, studying quietly and taking notes, and the rest of the day in his room or in the library. He had a roommate - Skyrider, but whenever the hybrid tried to talk to Riverdew, Riverdew didn't answer. Rude, but Riverdew really couldn't. Whenever he stared into the SkyWing-NightWing's dark eyes, all he could think was, Mom, help me! 
So, not the best way to start school. 
He didn't interact with anyone, let alone make friends. He immensely disliked school and really wanted to go home - but Misty convinced him not to, as she and his parents would be sad if he left a school that was pretty expensive, so he stayed. 
Another week passed with the same result - not making any friends while Misty instantly was in the 'popular' group. Riverdew hated it badly and blamed himself for being stupid. 
Some brother I am, jealous of my sister! Would repeat in his mind over and over until he couldn't stand it. He pulled Misty over when she was eating and tried to start small talk. Misty didn't understand him at all - after all, she had no troubles interacting with others dragons - and Riverdew felt frustrated. So he left and went to the library. 
Finally, he mustered enough courage to talk to his roomate, Skyrider. Skyrider was delighted to make a new friend, and sure enough, they bonded instantly. Skyrider didn't mind Riverdew's quiet nature, and Riverdew was happy to have a friend. 
There were a few other dragonets in class which Skyrider introduced Riverdew to. Frostfly, a IceWing-HiveWing hybrid, who became Riverdew's second-best friend. They became a small group of close friends and Riverdew felt happy. 
When Riverdew turned two years old, he discovered that he had a talent for writing, and started to write stories. He was also intrigued by psychology - the subject was fascinating to him - and started studying more, hoping that one day, he could write a scroll all about psychology and other things. 
Skyrider and Frostfly were very supportive of his goal, and helped him research. (Of course, without the internet, all they could do was go around as ask people what they felt about it until Riverdew conducted enough research to analyze) 
Current
Now Riverdew is around five dragon years old. When he's not in school, he lives with his parents, and sometimes spends his time in Frostfly and Skyrider's houses, both which are in Sanctuary. 
He's almost finished writing his scroll - or book, I guess. And he's happy, and although he's still an introvert, he's more relaxed around dragons now, and less jumpy. So I guess everything worked out in the end. I think.

R E L A T I O N S H I P S
Turtle and Kinkajou (Positive/Neutral)
Riverdew is very close with his parents, although sometimes he finds them overprotective of him and his sister. Despite this, he still loves them with all his heart.
Misty (Neutral)
Riverdew and Misty are not very close, despite being siblings - and, on top of that, they are opposites. Misty is extroverted, easy-going, everything that Riverdew is not. 
Frostfly (Positive)
Riverdew is very good friends with Frostfly, and Frostfly may or may not has a small (or not?) crush on him. Although Riverdew is very smart and shrewd, he doesn't have a clue about this - and thinks of her as just a friend. 
Skyrider (Positive)
Skyrider is Riverdew's best friend, although Frostfly follows a close behind. Riverdew often confides in him for advice, and Skyrider doesn't mind filling up the silence of conversations.
