Sandgrouse

== Description ==
Sandgrouse is a SandWing/SkyWing hybrid. They could never fully blend in with either of her tribes, not fully looking like any of them. Her sandy yellow, pink, and red scales are an almost perfect balance of the two tribes she is a hybrid of. 
Sandgrouse does not have any trace of a SandWing barb. They have SkyWing wings, but they are a little smaller than the average SkyWing. Sandgrouse has fire, but it is only as hot as a SandWing’s. 
She has a bulky build, with a large, imperfect sail. Sandgrouse wears seven accessories, two silver horn rings with a gold earring pierced through each of them, two gold earrings, a gold snout spike ring, a gold necklace studded with large, circular, cyan diamonds studded in them, and a gold armband studded with rubies. Their horns are like a SkyWing’s, but they are smaller. 
== Personality ==
Sandgrouse is pretty lazy, and procrastinates a lot. They are normally just “nice” towards dragons who aren’t close to her, such as her customers. Sandgrouse can have a great work ethic, but it rarely shows through her laziness. They have great persuasive skill. Sandgrouse is petty and hypocritical. 
She supports one cause, Save the Scavengers(canon group, confirmed by Tui). They ignore problems, big and small. Sandgrouse is rather indecisive, and has found themselves staying in bad situations instead of actually deciding anything. 
She enjoys scrolls and writing, and hopes to become a successful writer at some point. They know that it won’t be easy, and often just takes a nap after thinking about it and all the work it would entail. 
== Backstory ==
Lizard, her father, used to have a different mate, who was a SandWing. They had a female dragonet named Brightsting. His mate died, and after a while, found a new mate, Sandgrouse’s mother, Peregrine. The couple moved to Sanctuary(the SkyWings’ version of Possibility), and had Sandgrouse.
One of Sandgrouse’s favorite things to do as a dragonet was try to convince other dragons to do things. They could sway most of the dragons they talked to. When Sandgrouse was 5, Brightsting moved to another desert town, and fell in love with a SilkWing named Zerene(my OC) many years later, when a few of the Pantalan dragons came to Pyrrhia. 
They had a mostly happy dragonet-hood, except for one thing. Lizard was blinded one day, due to a fight with a SkyWing at a tavern. The whole family helped Lizard with his new disability. When Sandgrouse was ten, she started a scroll shop, to become a successful writer, and sell other dragons’ scrolls. At one point, they had a problem with a thief. 
The dragon stole the treasure Sandgrouse had been making. One day, she decided to discover who it was. They hid behind a stack of scrolls one night, waiting for the thief to come. When the dragon did come, it turned out to be a male SandWing 3 year old dragonet named Cacti. Sandgrouse jumped out at him and pinned him. The dragonet cried and tearfully explained that he was starving.
His parents had died from a horrible sickness. Cacti didn’t know how to hunt, and had no treasure. Sandgrouse was very mad at first, but decided to let him stay long enough to teach Cacti how to hunt. After a few days, he had learned how to, and said goodbye.
Sandgrouse used to date a NightWing animus, but that changed one day when they discovered the NightWing was cheating on them. It took her a year to say anything about it or get out of the relationship. They blame his animus magic for doing it, but knows deep down that Lightstar did it on his own. This made her hate all animus dragons, even when it’s irrational. 
After a while, Sandgrouse met a SkyWing named Falcon. They became friends and slowly grew closer. After three years of friendship, Sandgrouse began to crush on him. They confessed one day, and Falcon liked them back. The two became mates, and live together. The pair is planning to adopt a dragonet soon.
