Shiroyuki

Shiro didn't ask for this.
All she wanted was a quiet life, with her unborn dragonet and her pet bird.
So why was she cursed with this magic?
She was forced to run for her life, all because she didn't use her power for her tribe.
And the magic she used while she ran.... ruined her.
----Shiroyuki was a calm, quiet dragon, born to a lower-ranking noble family but never really swayed by the rankings. She managed to hide her animus capabilities for most of her life, but due to an unfortunate accident (which may or may not have involved a walrus, an over-competitive high ranking IceWing, and Shiro's boyfriend), she was suddenly forced into the spotlight, the whole of the IceWing tribe depending on her to bring glory and prosperity to their kingdom. When Shiroyuki refused to use her magic for them, the tribe exiled her, leaving her in the arctic wilderness with only her soon-to-hatch egg and pet falcon, nicknamed Frostfalcon (Shiro was never the best with names). In her attempts to avoid using magic, Shiro had painted herself into a corner, and was forced to repeatedly use magic for the survival of the group. Slowly, she grew more and more bitter, venturing into the category of insanity. Shiro eventually realized this- but alas, it was too late. She enchanted her bird into the form of a dragon, to take care of her newborn dragonet, whom she named Frostbite. She told Frostfalcon, now a young dragoness, to take care of Frostbite before fleeing into the coming storm, never to be seen again.
----Shiroyuki, or 'Shiro' as she preferred to be called, was tall, willowy, and beautiful, with scales the shimmering white of freshly fallen snow. She always had a certain timidness to her posture, and would dodge away from any compliments she received. Her most unusual feature was her two identical tails, which she passed down to her daughter Frostbite. She was a poor fighter but a fast flier, which proved useful when she fled the Ice Kingdom. She had owned a pet bird from the time she was a little girl, taking exceptional care of the small animal and making sure nobody mistook it for 'free lunch'. Shiro loved to dance, and she met her lover, Siku (the father of Frostbite) while dancing out in the snow. Shiro enjoyed simple but lovely silver jewelry, and Siku frequently bought her various adornments made of the metal, which she thought to be charmingly romantic.
----Shiro feared being driven insane by her animus magic very much. She feared it would affect Siku and her newborn child, both of whom she loved to death. She refused to give a 'gift' to the tribe even once, which made the royal family very mad and earned her permanent exile from the Ice Kingdom. Siku was heartbroken, but his family was strongly 'Anti-Shiro' and he was forced to abandon her, promising someday they would meet again.
