As what I am about become, I hope you perceive me as not a tyrant, but, rather, a leader, of the MudWings. It is my sworn duty to serve my citizens, my subjects, my friends. All I do is not by inheritance, but by will. I am of great influence from my mother, the one who has led you through war, through suffering, through more than I could have ever hoped for, it is with great grief I announce that she is the one who has tragically fallen, but I assure you we will rise from all we have been through. I, Queen Sedge the Second, am proud of every one of you, and I am proud to be your new queen!”

 ==Main Backstory==
All her childhood, Typha has been but a plain, modest-ranked princess. Seems fun, but Typha wanted to be Queen. She would do anything to be duchess, or countess, or even a lady-but alas, she is but a princess. It SHOULD seem fair. There are plenty of homeless MudWings on the outskirts of town, the lower parts. She should be satisfied with what she has! But she isn't. The biggest reason she even WANTED to be queen was so she could help them. She WOULD BE, COULD BE a queen that does what she does not for power, or control, but for the sake of others. She would make changes no queen ever has before. Every day she lifted her head higher, pointed her talons more precisely, did everything Crown Princess would have done. She’s plenty responsible, always organized, perfect for the role. If only she were the older one! Stupid MudWing law. So when her identical twin, Sedge, the next and alive heir to the throne, offers to switch places with her, how could she object? The coronation is about to occur, and Sedge, a messy, laid-back typical 10-year-old slacker dragon, couldn't care less. Before she knew it, the process was over and a heavy crown sat atop Typha's head. Soon, she realizes it’s not as it seems. Every palace worker is constantly whispering. Her name is among their words. Her insecurities shake every time she is judged. She isn’t good enough, whatever. She’s walking a very thin line inside the palace. Who knows who she can really trust? It’s hard to make friends when you act like a Queen. Maybe she’s alone. But that’s what she wants. Even if it means everyone is constantly shaking their head, looking for something more. Every time she comes to their expectations, they only raise their expectations. She’s far too prideful to admit it, but it makes her lonely. So when Sedge decides to make the most of what she finds in a more humble life in Pantala, Typha has no other choice. The LeafWings and SilkWings need help and Typha will put every last bit of effort she has, so they can get it. The refugees bring in disease and need, and with their lack of preparation, famine begins to spread out, and everyone is tired and parched. She also helps their transportation in fleeing to Pyrrhia. But what will they come on? How big can they afford for the groups to be? Everything needs to be done! Pressure pressure pressure! This is what she came for. This is what she spent every moment of her childhood training to do. Her mothers wouldn’t have been disappointed. She knows that if a single word about her- not the role she has assumed, Queen Sedge, but PRINCESS Typha, who has supposedly moved away from the mud kingdom to explore the world and meet with other rulers-being queen leaked out, her reign would be over. Her allyship with the other rulers. Think how disappointed Queen Snowfall would be! That little IceWing dragonet that comes visit her so often, seeking her advice after the devastating loss of her own mother. The one who looked up to her as someone so high—it would hurt her—no, both of them—to know how dishonorable such an act is. The trust and faith that the Pantalans looked up at her with. So disloyal to her own kind, the ones who thought she was helping. She’s a far better queen then her rough, lazy sister, even if she did bend the rules for this. Right? It’s only fair...

===Bloodscream===
“
Don't yell at me like that! 
— 
”
<noinclude>
Bloodscream is Typha's best friend. Typha was the first dragon who Bloodscream came out to as a transgender female. This shows the trust that they have in each other. This showed that Bloodscream trusted her enough to give her information that she couldn't give to anyone else. In return, Bloodscream was made the prime advisor of Typha when she was coronated. Bloodscream is polysexual and abromantic, which is why the two had a fling before, but she couldn't handle how Bloodscream was always changing, so now they're just best friends. They are happy, still, the way they are, and they love each other platonically just the same. The two met when Bloodscream attended Peridot And Peril Academy when they were younger, from ages 2-6. Bloodscream can be rather impulsive belligerent, and repugnant, while Typha is calm and keeps all thoughts to herself. This kind of lack of coordination can cause them to break out in arguments, where name-calling can be involved. Bloodscream has a quick and hot temper and can get mad at the slightest of detail. She also ends up blaming the wrong dragons sometimes, and picks on the weak. Bloodscream used to breathe fire at anyone who dare cross her way, until Typha came along. Typha could see that Bloodscream acted out of the fear that others would attack her first. So, she attacked them instead, which was why she fought the wrong dragons. Typha showed no fear as she confronted Bloodscream about this. She showed no emotion at all, every vein inside her was completely firm, and straight, and still. She tamed Bloodscream out of not fighting back, but persuation, and trust. That was how she got Bloodscream to trust her. She showed that she didn't have to strike to be strong. This is what makes her such an inspiration to Bloodscream. She also stated that Bloodscream is an inspiration to her, because sometimes rather than calm confrontation she ends up with no confrontation at all. Out of pure restraint, she always tries to tame beasts the way she tamed Bloodscream. Once, some giant animals marched over to her kingdom and she only tried to make it gentle, tried to talk to it and feed it. In the end it was Bloodscream who slughtered the beast.
===Magma===
Magma is a godchild of Typha. He is the child of Peril and Clay, although they didn't meet until Typha was an adult. Typha said she was blessed to be the godmother of such a darling little dot. Not much is known about the two, other than that the first thing he did after he hatched was throw eggshells at guests who came to his hatching party in the nursery.
===Fawn===
Fawn is an oc of Obb Fwuwwy. 
She is a 14-year-old female MudWing who is currently romantically involved with Sedge, Typha's slithtly elder twin sister. Typha got along well with her because she is very sweet and kind, always wants to do the right thing, believes in prophecies and would do anything to help them come true, sees the good in even the worst dragons. She never gives up on others, which Typha likes, but it also reminds her of who she doesn't want to be. Typha is frustrated with her sometimes and once called her ideas "stupid", which she later apologized for. Typha shows guilt-racked compassion towards Fawn's personality. Typha tries hard to see her kindness as strength, but it is difficult for her not to because she is reminded of the fact that having too much sweetness and naiive belief is one of her own weaknesses.It is difficult for her to get past the fact that Fawn is being the exact thing she always tries to avoid being, even though Fawn isn't necessarily doing anything wrong. Typha treats Fawn rather unfairly but tries to like her on account of her sister. After she spots Fawn in the village, taking care of little dragonets and telling them stories about the Dragonets of Destiny, she began to find herself again and think that what Fawn does is perfectly fine, and how she kept the little dragonets cheerful and have deep faith even through the famine. It provoked her into new beliefs that being emotionally strong is just as important. Typha thanks her for this in the end.
===Amber===
Amber is the OC of QueenStar13.
Amber is a ruler of a hive, she's terrified of her older sister, who's the hive queen. Typha helps her overcome this fear and tells her that even though they're waiting, living so that they can survive to be alive to fight the next day. That they just have to wait for the next day, but they're sure that they will. Amber is circumspect and very sneaky, which is how she secretly lets the LeafWings, SilkWings, and even some HiveWings refuge to safety in Pyrrhia where Typha is, to escape the Othermind. One of Amber's citizen is a NightWing named Pleiades who immigrated to Pantala to escape the SandWing queen war. They were formerly a merchant in the Diamond Spray Delta before the war, and they had remembered Queen Sedge I. They had remembered how great a ruler she was, and raised the idea to Amber. She's commanding and always has other's backs, except when it requires crossing her sister. She loves painting and is ace aro, she's also very sneaky.
