== Life ==
Sanguine was born to a Skywing mother and a Nightwing father. Her mother, a palace guard named Pyrope, met her future partner, Shadow in 4,979 A.S. and the duo quickly fell in love. The couple had their first two dragons four years later, twins named Incarnadine and Sanguine. 
Sanguine had a largely positive childhood. Her mother was the primary caretaker, because her father had to hide his double-life from the Nightwing queen as well as his grandmother, an animus named Bloodstream. 
Unfortunately, Shadow couldn't hide this secret forever. When Sanguine was 5, Bloodstream found out about Shadow and Pyrope's forbidden romance. Days later, Shadow would be brutally murdered by Bloodstream. This event caused a great deal of agony to Sanguine. Her twin, Incarnadine would be injured in this event.
After the death of her father, she eventually became a Palace Guard for the Skywing queen once she reached adulthood. Despite her young age, she would receive praise from the queen. 
When she was 9 years old, she was given her mother's cloak. That same day her mother was murdered by Bloodstream. Bloodstream threatened to kill Incarnadine as well. This event infuriated her and led to her lashing out and brutally killing Bloodstream. After killing Bloodstream, Sanguine tore off some of her scales to make a necklace out of them. When guards came to help Bloodstream, Sanguine killed them as well, fearing for her life and her sisters life as well.
She remains a palace guard for a few years, but she decides she wanted to do more with her life than defending a queen she never liked. 
She would go on to become a successful assassin, starting at age 10. She would only accept clients who were seeking to have a truly deplorable dragon killed. She was able to determine thanks to her abilities as an empath. Examples include, a particularly vile Skywing general, a cannibalistic Mudwing, crime bosses and dragonet killers. Her death toll is disputed, but generally believed to be in between 40 and 50 in the previous 20 years of her life.
She is currently wanted by every Pyrrhian tribe leadership. She is regarded as somewhat of a myth, often called the Angel of Death due to her victims being either fellow criminals or war lords.
