Purslane

Purslane is super healthy, u should really eat some
== Introduction ==
This is TheIceWingPopsicle’s OC u better not edit this without my permission. Any names of other characters or similar color pallets are a coincidence.
== Description (Simple) ==
Purslane has green scales with bright green freckles on her snout. She has yellow-green scales speckles around along with green-ish teal wings. Her leaf shaped tail webbing is yellow and green; her eyes are a blue color, and she has a buttercup wrapped around her horn.
== Description (Complex) ==
Purslane has slightly desaturated, green scales, except for a few spots on her snout that look like freckles. She has some yellow scales tinted with green around her tail and on her wingspan, and the leaf shaped webbing on her tail tip fades from the yellow color in the middle out to her desaturated green. Her wings are a color that’s a cross between teal and green, and her eyes are an odd blue. She has a buttercup wound around her right horn.
== Personality: ==
One could call Purslane an over-achiever. She will stop at nothing to achieve her goals and is brutally honest. She is tender, and doesn’t act like she’s the best LeafWing in the tribe, but still knows her boundaries. Her sister, Japanese Maple, would tell her she’s like lemon zest—she had a sour taste but it’s less sour than a lemon. 
Purslane is also very dedicated. She doesn’t let anyone distract her while she’s gardening and focuses on connecting with the plants, even though she may not have leafspeak. She still tries to root herself in nature and will show signs of vulnerability with dragons she feels safe with. 
== Backstory ==
=== Hatching: ===
Purslane was born a year after the LeafSilk kingdom began to take shape. Her family welcomed her and her sister, Japanese Maple (or Maple for short) to the world. She lived in a little house and was taken to the community garden for almost her whole life. 
=== Dragonethood: ===
When she was old enough to volunteer, Purslane helped out with the garden. She liked working alone the most. She was also introduced to her younger brother, Spinach, who was a pest while gardening. Her older brothers managed to keep him in check, but Purslane still preferred to work alone. However, she then met a dragon willing to teach her more about gardening and plants, who was known as Stem. Stem enrolled Purslane in a school of herbal plants and gardening, and Purslane learned everything she needed to know, along with her fellow classmates.
=== Teenager: ===
Purslane was still a garden apprentice, but Stem allowed her and some other apprentices to teach. Purslane especially liked talking about dandelion, which could form a tea that was healthy for all dragons. She even took Maple to come teach with her. Soon enough, Purslane was known as the “Queen of the Garden” to her family and friends. She met a dragon named Sorrel while tending to the plants, who wasn’t a fan of gardening but enjoyed reading in the flowers.
