"I'm scared, I really am, I admit. But you never know, do you? Even a NightWing with prophet powers can never really tell. If you want to live, you must be careful."

"No, I think I look normal...FOR A HYBRID, please SHUT UP." 
Squelch is quite normal looking, especially for a hybrid.
He is a sturdy little guy, with a square face and shoulders, indicating his MudWing heritage. His wings are pretty big, which makes him fast in open air. Although he is part MudWing, he is not incredibly muscular, because the RainWing in him didn't let that be. His arms and legs are on the shorter side, and his talons are tiny and stubbed.
Squelch's mainscales are a banana yellow, and his secondary scales and underbelly are a lime green, with tints of red. For his ruff and wings, he has a gradient of red and greens. His ruff is a little larger than a pure RainWing's, and it is tucked behind his horn on each side of his face. Squelch's horns are long and curly, and are carrot orange in color. His nose horn and spikes going down his back are the same color.
Squelch has slight heterochromia in his right eye, with his left one being completely obsidian black, and the other being a dark shade of gray, although, it is difficult to tell. His talons are stained with black and blue ink, because he writes so much.
Squelch always has at least a few scratches or bumps or bruises on him, even if he has no memory of getting any of them. He does not really enjoy wearing accessories, but he does wear a black leather pouch on his left leg.

"I am not in a mood for overly talkative and hyper dragons, thanks." 
Squelch is not the kind of dragon who will walk up to you and just start talking. He will kind of ease his way into the conversation, although the other dragon will have to start it. He prefers for dragons to approach him, not him approaching others.
He can be social when he feels like it, and if he's in a good mood, he'll crack jokes and laugh with his friends. Although, this feeling is rare. Socializing, willingly or not, always drains his energy, and Squelch will be grumpy for the next few days. He'd much rather have a small friend group than a large one, mostly because he isn't a fan of socializing, but partly because he is terrible at remembering names.
His temper is short, and he finds it difficult to deal with anger. If he is upset, is tone might get harsh, and he might get a little bit physical, like swatting away someone's hand when they try to help.
He gets bullied constantly, and because of his sensitivity and flare, he is quick to lunge at the predator. Fights have been started, although no adult interaction was needed. Some call him weak or dumb, but the thing that was most upsetting to Squelch was scared.
The bullies weren't wrong on that one. Anxiety is constantly flowing through his veins. Despite his aggressiveness, Squelch is extremely cautious, and has several fears, his worst being Public Speaking. The most dreaded day for him is when his teacher asks him to read his paper aloud. It's not his writing he's worried about, he knows that's good. It's the fear of messing up and embarrassing himself in-front of everyone.
So you could say he has problems. That he can't talk about. Squelch has a hard time talking about his feelings and everything that is going on around him. He knows exactly what is going on inside his head, but he can't seem to get his thoughts to roll off his tongue.
Also, he has a thing about trust issues. It takes him awhile to fully trust someone, and most of his friends he can't even bring himself to trust 100%. The only dragon he can trust without doubt is Current, and believe me, it took a long time for him to build up that trust.
Typically a caring dragon, he feels sympathy for others who are hurt, physically or personally. Although he is not the best at comforting others, thanks to his lack of confidence. But he'll try his best to make others feel better.
But what didn't take long was for Squelch to develop his love and talent of writing. History papers, poems, fiction, Squelch can write it all. It's his favorite pastime, and when he's in a mood, he dips his stained talon into some ink and writes.

His egg was left buried under leaves and debris by the outskirts of the RainWing Kingdom. A NightWing dragons was walking by, when she spotted the green and yellow egg with brown and red speckles on it. She had almost stepped on it, but she was glad she didn't.
The NightWing, named Starchaser, decided she was too young and inexperienced to raise a dragonet, so she took it to Sunrise Orphanage, and that is where Squelch hatched. He hated the orphanage, and most nights, he put himself to sleep by crying. He wanted his real parents, whoever they were. Whenever couples came in to look at the dragonets, Squelch refused to look at them. Until a SkyWing and a SandWing came in. The SandWing, named Date, kneeled down to him and said, "Hi, Darling. Would you look at us?"
Squelch turned around and saw a husband and wife, and he loved them immediately. Forget about his real parents-these were the ones he'd always dreamed of! A month later, Date and Rust finally adopted Squelch, and they took him to his new home.
