Citrine (ParakeetLover3)

=== Description ===
Citrine is a Skywing with very distant Nightwing blood, though she does not know this. She is currently carrying out studies with Craugastor in Sanctuary.
==== Appearance ====
She is mainly a yellowish color with a light tint of orange. Her underbelly is a very pale yellow, with her wings being about the same color. Her spines and the scales on her talons are orange. Her horns and claws are a light grey colors, while her eyes are an almost brown color. The most notable thing about her is that on her wings, there are spots of multiple shades of orange and darker yellows scattered about. Each spot fades somewhat at the edges. Spots of warm, light brown follow the middle scales down her neck. 
She is somewhat chubby. 
====== Accessories ======
Most commonly worn:
Special/fancy occasions:
(I'll organize all listed ones into the right groups eventually) (notes will be in parenthesis)
*Silver necklace with a citrine gemstone (rarely, special occasions)
* Fabric citrus flowers in a crown (occasionally, casual events such as visiting a friend)
* Fabric citrus flower
*White scarf-like fabric with black buttons and multiple pockets, wrapped around her neck and body, similar to a vest kinda (sometimes, when working with Craugastor) (helpful for holding all the small parts when inventing)
*A bracelet made from her own fallen dragonet-teeth and black leather (Sometimes)
*A studded collar-like black choker with an upside-down white heart charm on the front
(W.I.P.)
==== Personality ====
Introvert is the first thing that usually comes to mind when thinking about her. Citrine is shy, reclusive, and a bit of a perfectionist. She enjoys nerding out about her favorite scroll series and has a fondness for writing fanfiction. She gets crushes quite easily, but most of the times they are mild and fade away after a while. Often, she has trouble communicating her emotions. During ex-queen Scarlet's reign, she often stayed at home and was bit isolated from the rest of her tribe, usually staying there unless needed. Since Queen Ruby's reign, she has stayed at home less often, though still reclusive. When she moved to Sanctuary, she started to come out of her shell a bit easier due to her time with Craugastor. The is very passionate about her interests, and would ramble on about her favorite scroll series given the chance. She tries to be friendly and helpful, though while she isn't exactly selfish, she doesn't always think about how her actions would affect others. She admits that she can be a bit cowardly at times, and that she's insecure. 
She isn't the best at picking up social cues, and has an odd fascination with animals that are, well, odd. She has a collection of insects that she's preserved and collects animal bones and teeth that she thinks are cool. She even made some of her fallen dragonet-teeth into a bracelet. 
(W.I.P.) 
====== Little things/other ======
She has a moderate stutter. When she is nervous, she often unconsciously wraps her tail around herself and/or starts rambling. When focused and into something, or just stressed, she sometimes mutters what she is doing and her thoughts about it under her breath. Often fidgets with either any worn accessories or her tail, usually by wrapping it around herself. 
=== Relationships ===
===== Craugastor =====
Positive
She sees him as a friend and mentor. She used to have a minor crush on him at some point, but that eventually started fading, though its still there. She appreciates how accepting he is despite his grumpiness. They both share an interest in science, specifically in biology and the natural world in general. 
===== Topaz (cousin) =====
Positive 
At first, Citrine didn't even know about Topaz's existence, and was pretty confused at first when she was notified that she was a candidate for Topaz's guardianship. They eventually ended up growing on her, and she was fairly protective due to both Skywings generally being against abnormalities as well as Topaz's general clumsiness. She is both confused and amused by her younger cousin's energy. Topaz was one of the main reasons she started taking an interest in creating and improving dragon prosthetics, as well as studying genetics. 
===== Calcite (half-brother) =====
Positive-neutral
===== The Autumn Leaves (Pen pals) =====
Positive
She is a big fan of their scrolls and poetry. She is aware that they are a group of multiple dragons that share the same pen name, and writes the most to the one that goes under the alias of Maple. They first started writing when some of Citrine's mail got sent to the wrong address, and have been writing ever since. She goes by the alias Electric Lizard when writing to them, hopes to meet them all in-person one day.

(general bullet points so I don't forget when writing whole thing)
* Was mostly raised by her dad since her papa was often busy with being a doctor during the war
*Was foster siblings with a Mudwing named {insert name here} for a while
*Also has a younger half-brother named Calcite
*Became Topaz's legal guardian after their parents and sister died from the war
* Kept Topaz carefully hidden(?) to some extent due to the Skywing's distaste towards abnormalities, even harmless ones such as too little fire
*Wanted to study and invent better prosthetics for dragons affected during the war (Topaz had no front legs and really weak fire)
*Created a wheelchair-like harness for Topaz due to them having no front legs
*At some point moved to Sanctuary when Calcite started forming his band
*Worked as an assistant teacher at a school there
*Met an Seawing athletics teacher (also part-time law enforcer) named Elkhorn at some point
*It just so happened that Staghorn, Elkhorn's brother, was a part of Calcite's band
