Echu is the WoF equivalent of Star’s Hollow Knight OC.
==Appearance==
“I will be the one to cut the strings of the rumors spread about me. I will not be controlled by them.”
^Base by Mezepheles^
Echu is a tall, lithe HiveWing dragonet with large wings and a narrow snout. She has mainly dusty, dark rose-colored scales dotted with black around her talons, tail, and shoulders. Her head is white, and she has long floppy ears. Her horns are stark white and ridged with sharp spikes, serrated on the underside for unknown reasons. The horns curl in a bit towards each other, making her front-facing profile look very majestic.
Echu has more than an average amount of eyes and is shunned for it. Her two main ones are like black holes, almost windows into a black space. She has no pupils, but a thin red, mist-like film is seen in all of her eyes. She has two tertiary eyes at the back of each main one, giving her incredible vision almost all around her.
Echu’s wing webbing is dark like black stained glass, with veins of pale mercury veins throughout. The wing-claws are incredibly sharp and serrated.

==~Personality~==
Echu is extremely quiet and distrustful to a fault. She will never take a compliment in fear it’s just a jab at her appearance, and often secludes herself to focus on her studies. She is very intelligent but will not show it in an attempt to keep to herself. 
Echu has flaws, whether she would like to see them or not. She isn’t just a shy little bean who has social anxiety. 
Echu is always telling small white lies. An ‘I’m fine’ here and a ‘never better’ there never hurt anyone—right? Wrong. Some of the only friends she had at Jade Mountain left her because they couldn’t trust her to actually tell them the truth about how she feels. She lies, yes, but she also hates liars. If someone “lies” (e.x. Complements her), she’ll go out of her way to tell them that lying to her face is just plain disrespectful. 
Echu can be oblivious at times if she’s hard at work, either sucked into a book or writing one. She owns stacks of notebooks all filled with novels she writes in her free time. She is extremely protective of her belongings, and instantly jumps to the assumption someone stole something when she simply misplaced it.
All in all, Echu is not a bad dragon.

== Biography==
”Why would you want to know about me?”
Echu was hatched under a red moon on Pantala, during the harvest season. Seen as a cursed dragonet or anomaly, her parents resolved to throw the newborn dragonet off of Jewel Hive. 
Oblivious, the dragonet was led to the top of the hive, and surrounded by onlookers, she was thrown from the top. She plummeted through the air, her screams echoing through the stale night air. Just before she would have died, Echu was caught by a silk vendor’s canopy, and the stretchy fabric saved the child from death.
She was found the next day by the vendor owner, though even they thought Echu was some kind of demonic entity. She escaped into the alleyways of Jewel Hive, and grew up on scraps and rumors for the next two years.
Eventually, Echu resolved to run from Pantala and go to the land of opportunity—Pyrrhia. She smuggled herself onto a ship, and a few cold, starved days later, she landed on the shores of the New Night Kingdom. 
Rumors of the ‘Cursed Demon’ spread through the mountains as the dragonet slowly made her way to Jade Mountain, scaling the vast ranges and mountains. After many days, she was found unconscious by a RainWing.
Echu had passed out from dehydration, starvation, and exhaustion. Luckily, the RainWing took her in and nursed her back to health. Soon enough, Echu awoke and thanked the RainWing for their kindness. She got to know him better during her stay, and the dragon (who she learned was named Clyde), started to get attached to her. She decided on staying with the healer for a while before continuing onwards to Jade Mountain. Clyde sent her off with a heavy heart, but made her promise to return if anything went awry—which she happily agreed to.
She felt the hardships of being an ‘anomaly’ during her journey, and now trusts nobody. Echu will never take a compliment, only seeing them as some double-edged sword meant to weaken her defenses. She is secluded and barely speaks, keeping to herself.
Echu has been into the Silver Winglet, and now is pursuing studies at the school to become a healer like the RainWing she looks up to.

==Abilities and Weaknesses==
”Do you have some altered motive?
===Extreme Eyesight — Strength===
Echu has incredible eyesight and can see almost all the way around her. She can see in complete blackness, though is sensitive to light. She is almost never surprised because of this ability.
===Light Sensitivity — Weakness===
When in direct sunlight, Echu gets incredible migraines that can make her bedridden for multiple days. Because of this, she rarely leaves Jade Mountain and only does so during dusk, dawn, and nighttime.
=== Large Wings —Strength===
Because of her larger-than-average wings, Echu can fly faster than most. She uses this combined with her lithe frame to fly above other dragonets in the hallways to get to her classes quickly. This can also come in handy when fleeing.
===Endurance — Weakness===
Echu may be able to fly fast, but she has horrible endurance and cannot run or fly for very long.

==Relationships==
”We can’t be friends.”
===-Clyde- Positive ===
Echu sees Clyde as a sort of father figure, one she never had. Even though they were only together for a few months, the two bonded tightly. They write letters to each other, and Echu has plans to visit him during holidays.
