A P P E A R A N C E
Nymph has a sleek and lithe build, and would appear tall if not for the slump in her shoulders. She curls inwards like a wilting flower, her posture that of a dragon purposely trying to make herself look insignificant. Her eyes are meek and docile; a light cyan blue that portends to absolute compliance. 
She has scales that are of a smooth ivory in colour, which glimmer softly in the dim flamesilk light. Her pale pink horns are long and elegant, her antennae gently curving. White flecks are scattered across her wings of dusty rose, as though tiny pieces of crushed diamond were thrown over them. A glittery pink shawl is draped over her shoulders, and she often tucks posies of wild heather into the folds of the cloth.

When looking at Nymph, one might be reminded of a butterfly. The way she flutters her wings absentmindedly, her soft voice and gentle laughter, the ethereal air she practically radiates. It'd be easy for one to assume her entire personality based on there - and one would be mostly right. Key word: mostly.
On the outside, Nymph seems quite shallow. Extroverted and bouncy, Nymph will strike up a conversation with anyone she sees. She loves talking about herself and her business, so much so to the point where the other dragon won't be able to get a word in around her own dialogue. However, she actually doesn't realize this, and when the other dragon tries to mention it, her look of surprise and apology is genuine.
If she was a scavenger, Nymph could be considered "a girly girl". She loves the color pink, keeping up with the newest fashions, and flirting with handsome SilkWings. She's rather gossipy, as she enjoys spreading secrets about others - she doesn't do this to cause harm, rather, she likes the shocked or elated expressions on others' faces.
This ties into the next facet of Nymph's personality: her foresight. Or rather, her lack of it. Nymph lives purely in the moment without any thought about what consequences her actions might cause. This means that her life is filled with repercussions that she hadn't even considered at the time, sometimes throwing her plans off. She just goes with it, though, perpetually calm and living life as it gets thrown at her.
There's a deeper side to Nymph, though, and this is revealed most often in her jewelry shop. Ask her anything about precious gems, and she'll field the question with the answer and a heap of additional information. Although she may seem frivolous, Nymph knows everything there is to know about what she sells, and she's not afraid to show that part of her.
This part of Nymph is more thoughtful, and thinks about the world as it is. She particularly likes reflecting on her life and the system of government in the Hives. Deep down, she wants freedom desperately, but she knows the build of her body and the colors of her scales will keep her from ever truly getting that.

"Back when she lived in Wasp Hive, she tried to join the Wasp Hive Chrysalis, but after pursuing them one night and failing to find them, she came back home late, and it was already morning. Her master was furious and demanded to know where she had been, but when she wouldn’t say, her master lost it. Nymph ran away the next night to Jewel Hive. She’d heard that Jewel Hive treated SilkWings much kinder than Wasp Hive. A HiveWing there who was a SilkWing sympathizer welcomed her graciously and forged some notes saying she’d been reassigned to Jewel Hive. Nymph never got caught, but she was terrified that one day, Wasp would find out about the runaway SilkWing and she would be punished terribly." - Moonlight
Nymph was hatched in the Wasp Hive; a poor start to life for any SilkWing. She is thus all too aware of the mistreatment her tribe endures on a daily basis; of the injustice they are made to suffer and the humiliation they are expected to smile through.
It wasn't the mistreatment or the injustice that was most discouraging to Nymph. Nor was it the humiliation; the prejudiced remarks and patronizing compliments. No, what was most discouraging to Nymph was how trapped and helpless she felt. There was no way for her to realistically fight back against the circumstances she had been hatched into, not for her or for any of the SilkWings around her. They felt as though they had no other choice but to comply.
So that's what Nymph did for many, many years. She assumed the role of a model SilkWing—made it her armor, flimsy armor though it was. 
Quiet, obedient, agreeable. Always with a vapid smile on her face. If a HiveWing was present, she stood to the side and kept her head down, kept her mouth shut. She never spoke unless spoken to first, she stayed silent and made herself as small as possible. To be ignored was to be safe; drawing attention meant danger. 
It was easier that way. Life was easier that way.
Yet, while Nymph never allowed her outward appearance to express anything but benignity, she allowed herself to despair inside. When the sun was just beginning to rise in the early morning, and her HiveWing master had yet to wake, Nymph would stand by her window and stare up at the sky. For those several moments when the world transitioned from night to day, she would whisper her desire for freedom out loud. A whisper, and nothing more. There were so few options for SilkWings as it was, and there were most certainly none for those who loudly voiced discontent.
Then Nymph learned of the Chrysalis.
