== Background ==
Rosewater is the daughter of Angel Fish, her mother and a Seawing, and Leopard, her father and a Rainwing. She currently lives with her parents, along the coast of the Rainwing Kingdom. At a young age, (6 months) she had looked rather de-formed. The Rainwings, who were rather skeptical about intertribal breeding, were weirded out by her. The family secluded her from the others, being worried for her health. She grew a bit sickly as a child; her bones were weak and her scales were unnaturally soft and delicate, along with a little scattering of minor health problems.
Her parents were hesitant to let her be with others considering her condition, so she was sheltered from the other dragonets for 4 years as she grew under their diligent care. Turns out she just needed more care and more time for her to fully develop. By the time she reached age 4, her body was relatively fine, her scales solidifying and her bones hardening. Sure, she is still a bit weaker than some of the other dragonets, but she was overall alright considering where she started.
A bit after her 4th birthday, her mother took up a full time position as a guard at the underwater Seawing Palace. Her father was pulled into being a partial “warrior” in the Rainwing Kingdom. She rarely saw her mother, as she was a whole kingdom away, and her father was pretty busy. Due to their work, she was left alone a lot of the time, much to her dismay.
Around the age of 5, she tried to tag along with her parents in their work. Attempts at following her mother into the deeper ocean made her light headed and reeling back to the shallow waters as she couldn’t breathe with her less developed gills. Her tries at helping out her father left her embarrassed as he was a… pathetically endearing scout, idly fidgeting with his armour with bewilderment and testing out his intimidating faces (which… needed some work). 
Both of her parents urged her to try hanging out with other dragons; and she tried. Hanging out with the Rainwings in their games was difficult, as her camouflage didn’t work and her thicker tail made it hard for her to swing from branches. Not even to mention her pitiful venom that barely manages to sizzle a leaf. 
Keeping up with the Seawings was tough. Her bioluminescence was weak, and her Aquatic was rusty as her mother was gone a lot of the time. She couldn’t swim as fast, or go as deep, as both would wear her out quickly. Her bigger wingspan dragged her down and her gills were smaller and less developed. And unlike the Rainwings, who regarded her peculiarity with curiosity, the Seawings were less curious and more scrutinizing. They frowned at her crude Aquatic and shared quizzical looks as she bumbled through the water at a painfully slow pace. 
So she didn’t really find much peace anywhere. Though it was a bit despiriting, she wasn’t ever that social to begin with. Her parents thought she had a shot at Jade Mountain Academy, with supposed tales of mixed tribes and possible hybrids, but by the time they caught wind, the slots were already filled to the brim. So instead, her parents decided to ship her off to Possibility, where her cousin Cactus Bloom and her family awaited her. 
Cactus Bloom’s family welcomed her with open wings, and she fit right in as if she’d been a part of the family the whole time. Though the house was always abuzz and dizzyingly chaotic, Rosewater could appreciate the new change. She attended school with Cactus Bloom up until the age of 8. By the time she had wrapped it up with school, she had come out of her antisocial shell considerably. Though much of that could be attributed to her extroverted cousin dragging her out by the tail screaming.
When she moved back to the Rainforest, her mother had resigned from her job at the Seawing Palace and had moved back to the Rainforest to help train the Rainwings how to fight (which was much easier said than done). Her mother tried to teach her some fighting as well, but with her uncoordinated mannerisms, she retained little. 
Her mother doted on her, and made time every night to tell her stories of her time guarding the Palace. On some nights, her father would join them, and throw in some witty quips that got the whole family laughing. Rosewater flourished under the love of her parents once more, and though they weren’t perfect, she loved them all the same.
Her mother took time to teach her how to properly fish, and scheduled lessons of Aquatic that could last hours. Her father led her on wonderful adventures through the thick Rainforest, guiding her as she learned to fly within the dense forestry, how to spot camouflage, and how to identify poisons. She couldn’t be more delighted to feel close to her parents again. Her scales brightened and her mental health soared. 
Cut to present day, where she has turned 10 years old, and travels between Possibility and the Rainforest Kingdom on a regular basis, to visit between her own family and her cousin’s family. And perhaps to meet with a special someone in Possibility. Who’s to say?
== Appearance ==
Rosewater looks much more like a RainWing despite her mother being a SeaWing. She's shorter than a lot of RainWings, and has a thicker tail. Her wings are bigger than SeaWings too, so it makes it rather difficult to swim long distance. Her scales are a light tan-blush pink color, and her bioluminescent scales are a light blue-ish purple. She has webbed talons, gills, and the frill on her neck. Her underbelly is an off-white color. Her eyes are a greyish silver. Dotted up and along her scales are little peculiar silver accents. 
==Abilities==
Rosewater has gills, but are a little bit smaller, causing a few minor breathing problems when she's moving fast or deep underwater. She is a rather slow swimmer, as her body is more like a RainWing's, and her tail is longer and not as powerful. But she could swim better than most other non-Seawings.
Rosewater's bioluminescent scales can change color, along with her frill. Her scales have blobby splotches where the colour sometimes changes, randomly scattered around her body. She has practically no control over the colour her scales turn, resulting in her being an uncomfortably open book on occasions. She can, however, control the colour of her bioluminescence… when she’s in the water. So hiding her bioluminescence scales on land is a no go.
Because her tail is thicker, and longer, she can’t hold onto branches like RainWings. Attempts at gripping on with her claws usually wails with her shorter, webbed talons hindering her. Her scales are very smooth, and are pressed up against her body, making it a bit harder for things to stick or cling to her.
She has a pitifully diluted venom that can barely sizzle a leaf. Attempts at using it on other dragons has hardly any effect, simply throbbing painfully for a bit if not washes away. It can’t penetrate scales. Her venom is much more effective when injected, but it’s still a weak, diluted venom. 
==Personality==
Rosewater is a calm mannered dragon, rather quiet and reclusive. Not particularly brave or bold, but able to handily stand her ground. She's rather uncoordinated, not quite grown into her body. Because she's a hybrid, lot's of other dragons tease her for being weird, or different. She has accepted it, and trained herself to ignore them. Her voice is clear, and tranquil, and almost always has a hint of a smile in it.
She has a “go with the flow” mindset, being able to adapt to new situations. When starting a task, she remains strongly dedicated until the very end, being very focused. She’s open and knows how to set boundaries.
==Weakness==
Because she has a thicker tail, she can't curl it as much, or hang from delicate tree branches. She's a rather slow swimmer, due to her tail being less thick than normal SeaWings tail, and due to her larger wings. She mainly relies on strong currents to move her along. She lacks a strong venom to do much damage.
