Sandstep

Princess Sandstep is a female NightWing-SandWing hybrid with some IceWing lineage and a student at Jade Mountain Academy, where she studies in the Jade Winglet. She was formerly an animus dragon [BAD TO THE BONE GUITAR RIFF], but was "cleansed" by Darkend, willingly giving up her magic because of its curse. Jerboa cursed her so using her magic would use up not her soul but her identity, transforming her slowly into an IceWing. She lived with her parents, Starflight and Sunny, in the desert outside the Kingdom of Sand's border, where she would have lived during summer break, but now lives with Jerboa with other cleansed animus dragons [BAD TO THE BONE GUITAR RIFF]. She had a tail stinger, but this was burned off by Flameshroud's flamesilk. She was in one of Moonwatcher's visions and was the creator as well as being featured in Another Dimension Prophecy. Additionally, being part IceWing, she created the gift of decoration, producing infinite ice sculptures. She is in a relationship with Amber.

=== Appearance ===
Sandstep is relatively small compared to most dragons her age, though she maintains a dominating presence to those around her. Her scales are black, though her body mostly resembles a SandWing, but has long horns. She often chooses clothing that establish a position of resistance against society's expectations. She has a line of yellow scales near her eyes, and a scar where her tail stinger used to be. She is often described as having a rebellious look on her face.
=== Personality ===
Sandstep is rebellious at heart, and believes society's expectations are unfair, especially on sexuality, and is described as woke by her friends. She thinks dragons have the power to change society if they work together, and works hard to get her point across. She is very smart and analyzes her situation carefully. However, unlike her parents, she feels excited by combat and often challenges her friends to one-on-one battles. She is very loyal to her friends and helps them with her psychic powers.
=== Biography ===
Sandstep was cursed by Jerboa at the age of three, and at the age of five, joined Jade Mountain Academy. She developed many friendships before partaking in the Winglet Wars, the Final Exam, and eventually the Expedition into Another Dimension. During summer break, she created the gift of decoration, two doors that produced unbreakable ice sculptures that never melt, and was later "cleansed" by Darkend and went to live with Jerboa, later working to defeat Sky and end the manufacture of the illegal drug Nyan Wings.
