Warning: this song contains loud and jarring noises.
Earthgrazer is a male NightWing-SkyWing hybrid, and the great-grandfather of Bennu. In life, he was an esteemed fighter, where his uncanny knowledge of dragon anatomy aided him greatly in combat. Having been born under one blood moon, the hybrid had -and still has- the ability to project his voice into other dragons' minds. He died under unknown circumstances even he cannot discern in 5,162 A.S., but for some odd reason, his spirit did not cross over into the next life. For the next 38 years he watched over his descendants until he could find a suitable heir to settle his unfinished business.
:Description
Once quite the gorgeous dragon, Earthgrazer's appearance was more than reminiscent of his name. A streak of white, yellow, orange, and pink arcs from his snout and trails to the midpoint of his tail, like a bright comet blazing across the night sky on his deep purple and blue scales. Neck arched and proud, his gleaming white horns were one of his few SkyWing traits, as his scale pattern was near identical to his NightWing mother's. Earthgrazer had a broad chest, and powerful muscles rippled beneath his scales. The star patterns were very faint near where his wing membranes attached to his sides and only more pronounced on the far edges of his wings, as if the stars themselves were afraid of the trail of fire on his back. While by no means a tall dragon, the hybrid's regal posture and proud seafoam-green eyes seemed to command a deep respect from even the most hated of his foes. 
In death, he is incorporeal and invisible, but sometimes when Bennu is asleep, concentrating on visualizing him, or deeply afraid, she will be able to see Earthgrazer. He assumes a much more gaunt and wispy frame in her mind in this state, making him appear as if he is held together by smoke and strings and the corners of Bennu's mind- a description which may be more than apt. The hybrid resents this portrayal of himself, but it gets the job done. After all, there are more pressing things to worry about than how one is perceived by a somewhat impertinent but still useful great-grandchild.
A blood-red scale the shape of a diamond could be found on the corner of each of his eyes, signifying his moon-born powers. While a normal blood moon mindreader can project all of their thoughts and even images into another dragon's mind, Earthgrazer's SkyWing heritage has significantly weakened this ability, as he can only project his voice into another dragon's mind at close range, and does not have the ability to read minds normally. This is what allows him to contact Bennu, as while he can see and hear the world around his ghostly form, Earthgrazer cannot be heard by anyone unless he is directly attempting to speak into their mind.
