Cloudywing is an adult female SilkWing who is a famous Pantalan singer and songwriter, and former entertainer of the HiveWings. She hatched in Bloodworm Hive to unknown parents, one of which being an escaped frostsilk servant of Lady Bloodworm before being adopted by HiveWings. After the events of The Poison Jungle, she was under the control of the Othermind before moving to the LeafSilk Queendom after the events of The Flames of Hope.
== Appearance==
Cloudywing is an iridescent, mostly grey dragoness with blue hues and white patterns that look like faint marbling or clouds. Her eyes are almond shaped, and they are the color of sapphires and deep ocean blues. The scales on the top of her neck are periwinkle-ish, with a darker row of scales splitting her main scales and her underscales neatly in half.
Cloudywing's wings and claws are small yet long, making it a little more difficult for her to fly when she needs to. Her neck and back are regally arched, and she has a long, fine pointed tail. Many dragons describe her as matching the beauty standards and perfect, and pictures of her depict her spikes as long and delicate to match the rest of her, even though they are dull and stubby. Under electricsilk light, her scales look like a shiny yet dull purple.
She wears fur and velvet coats and capes sometimes, sometimes of animal hide and feathers. She also wears sunglasses studded with diamonds at times and is known to wear silver rings and bracelets embedded with gemstones. Cloudywing's voice is described as deep and glorious, and she has a large range and can hit very high notes. When speaking, her voice is frequently strained from singing too much.
== Personality==
Cloudywing has a very friendly demeanor and is very nice and welcoming to most dragons. She enjoys socializing and talking about herself. Cloudywing is very vain and has a large ego that is not fractured easily. She also likes to boast and flex about her wealth. Cloudywing is also very blunt and on-point, and despite her concerns for every aspect about herself, is a very critical thinker, as well as calculating. 
She believes that everyone should get the chance to see her perform, however only generally accepts the wealthy and upper class in her private circle. She is also noted to have a lack of financial understanding, as she lived in a wealthy environment, and she prices VIP tickets to her concerts and shows three to four times the price of a regular ticket. She always buys VIP tickets to other performers' shows and likes to show other dragons up by dressing with her most regal and expensive outfits.
Cloudywing also spends her money on very expensive things, whether or not they are useful or just for display. The dragoness also has a dark side, which is uncommon to see given the fact she has frequent mood swings and violent outbursts, causing her to be unpredictable at times. She can be cunning, cold, and most commonly, selfish, and wishes death on others very easily. Cloudywing easily holds grudges and is very resentful towards her family.
Cloudywing has also been noted to be verbally abusive and degrading, typically shouting at assistants or her employees. Cloudywing is also very overprotective of those she holds dear and is very fond of those that remind her of those who she trusts. While she usually finds the smallest things very annoying and bothersome, it is very hard to annoy her if she likes and trusts someone. 
Cloudywing also has trust issues and “would rather rip someone's face off instead of blabbering about feelings”. She has an unhealthy relationship with food and turns to it as a coping mechanism when stressed or in a low point in her life, and unlike other SilkWings, eats meat.
==Biography==
<tabber>
|-|Pre-Hatching=
Nothing is really known about Cloudywing's parents or their lives. One of her parents, was a frostsilk and personal servant of Lady Bloodworm who ended up escaping and falling in love with someone. Shortly after having Cloudywing's egg, they fled the hives to the Super Secret Special Silk Society and still live happy lives there to this day. Cloudywing's egg was found and placed in an orphanage, where she would spend the first year of her life.
|-|Dragonethood=
Cloudywing, like all the SilkWing dragonets (in an orphanage) in Bloodworm Hive, was very mistreated ever since the day she hatched. Also around this time, there was a search for Cloudywing's parents' egg, but luckily, she did not look like her frostsilk parent. In the orphanage, Cloudywing quickly discovered her passion for music and singing, although the singing would land her nights without dinner, sleeping with no light or even in the Bloodworm Hive equivalent of Misbehavior's Way.
One day a pair of HiveWings and their rotten dragonets were looking for a pretty SilkWing to be their servant. Cloudywing, who despite usually being starved, looked more pristine and prettier than the other dragonets. The HiveWings chose Cloudywing, and Cloudywing was taken to her new “home”.
On the first day, she had to clean the whole house and tend to the garden while her adoptive sister watched and taunted her. However, her adoptive brother tried showing her empathy, but he didn't want to be caught by his parents befriending the SilkWing. Cloudywing's time living with her HiveWing "parents" soon became significantly worse than the orphanage. She was locked in the closet constantly, still starved every other night and even beaten. And Cloudywing didn't really sing or bounce around, which was why she was punished in the orphanage. Cloudywing was miserable.
At the same time, the HiveWings who adopted Cloudywing always reassured Cloudywing she was the best SilkWing ever; The prettiest, the most musical and privileged because she was adopted by HiveWings. So, around the age of three, she was constantly put into beauty pageants and singing competitions. While she didn't always win the beauty ones, she always won the singing ones. Whenever Cloudywing lost a beauty pageant, she was deprived of a few days' worth of food, locked in the closet, and made to do twice the workload of the house (even if there wasn’t anything to do) as well. Also around this time, given her constant deprivation of food, and control over what she ate, Cloudywing started to indulge in food whenever she could.
Around the time her metamorphosis came around, Lady Bloodworm started searching for the lost frostsilk's dragonet again to see if any of the dragonets of that year were frostsilks. Fortunately, Cloudywing was not a frostsilk, and continued her metamorphosis like an average dragonet.
|-|Upbringing=
Cloudywing was immediately assigned to be a servant for elite HiveWings because of her beauty and efficiency in working. Not too long after, she became an entertainer for the elite HiveWings; A dancer and singer, and her HiveWing "parents" were given all of the credit for the SilkWing's talent; Teaching and giving Cloudywing her gifts because they were so righteous. Cloudywing, although she was naturally self-absorbed and narcissistic, became even more so given that she was beautiful and fit the SilkWing standards of beauty, as well as performed for the high-ranking HiveWings.
She frequently traveled hives, although she was stationed in Wasp Hive. She frequently visited Cicada Hive and Jewel Hive as well and performed for dragons like Lady Cicada and the average partygoer in Jewel Hive. Cloudywing easily made herself a name, becoming one of the most famous singers among the hives. She even got her own mansion in Jewel Hive, where she frequently spent her days if she wasn't on tour. One day, however, HiveWing guards marched up to her mansion and gave her 2 letters; A letter ordering Cloudywing to perform for Queen Wasp herself, and an eviction notice because SilkWings were not allowed to own mansions.
Cloudywing was very upset about this, and reasonably so, and asked Lady Jewel to pardon her, which although the hive ruler did not have the power to, offered her a small segment in her palace where she didn't have anything going on in. The dragoness eventually traveled to Wasp Hive, after weeks of practicing, rehearsing and picking out the best jewelry and outfits, and sang and danced for hours for the HiveWing queen. She also met one of Wasp's SilkWing servants, Metalmark, who the queen had a peculiar distrust for, and she was immediately sent back to Jewel Hive for simply interacting with Metalmark, who she had a liking for.
|-|Career=
Cloudywing's career flourished for around a decade before her adoptive sister, Fireworm, decided that she wanted to be famous, too; She had it out for Cloudywing, and how a measly little SilkWing can be more famous and richer than her. Fireworm stalked, harassed and blackmailed Cloudywing, and unfortunately, there wasn't much that officials could do about it since HiveWings were above SilkWings. This continued for years.
Despite this, the SilkWing got through it and still performed as usual. She was ordered to perform at Wasp Hive again, where she encountered Metalmark once more and actually had a long conversation with him without Wasp being aware. She then learned that Metalmark is a rare electricsilk, and she also found out that he was already super loyal to Queen Wasp before metamorphosis, and since he was the first electricsilk to hatch in the hives, decided to keep him as a servant as a personal trophy and brainwashed him (although he isn't aware).
Cloudywing’s eating habits around this time started to be based on how stressed or depressed she was. Some days, she would eat large portions all day while others she would eat very little. She eventually wrote a song about Metalmark and her liking for him, although Cloudy kept it vague, so not even Queen Wasp guessed it was about him. Fireworm heard about this song and followed Cloudywing to Wasp Hive to watch her perform a second time. Fireworm decided to blackmail Cloudywing, giving her five years to give all of her musical rights and fortune to Fireworm before Firework exposed Cloudywing's "secret".
Cloudy's career for years was untouched and unscathed, where she even collaborated with others, held fundraisers and even secretly performed for the Chrysalis a few times since she didn't really like Queen Wasp that much. One day, Cloudywing was out and about where she was seized by mind controlled HiveWing guards and taken to Wasp Hive, where she was interrogated about a potential relationship with Metalmark, although she denied it completely, even denying the second interaction she had with him altogether.
When asked about the song, Cloudy said it was because of a mysterious SilkWing she once liked as a dragonet. After this event, Cloudywing was a little exhausted with her career and her fame started to dwindle. Around the time of the latest brightest night, she was not very talked about and was under HiveWing surveillance more often than not. She still performed for her locals at Jewel Hive, and occasionally traveled to Bloodworm and Cicada Hives, solely because of familiarity.
|-|Canon=
During the canon events, she really took interest in the SilkWings, the HiveWing and even the LeafWing who stole the Book of Clearsight. Even though she wasn’t entirely Wasp-hating or violent most times, she ‘’really’’ wanted the fugitives to be correct about Clearsight and wanted to have Queen Wasp overthrown somehow. Of course, she was secretive about this.
Not too long after, Queen Wasp (really the Othermind) was able to mind control SilkWings and LeafWings too. Cloudywing, although she tried to escape alongside many Jewel Hive SilkWings, was ultimately captured and mind controlled before the Othermind was defeated. After that, she moved to the LeafSilk Queendom, and immediately started establishing herself a name once more, and no longer being restricted to entertaining HiveWings only.
Cloudywing almost immediately regained her recognition, and even began performing in Pyrrhia as well every few months or so. She even goes to visit Metalmark in the hives, despite him still being a victim of Wasp’s constant and extreme propaganda.

==Relationships==
<tabber>
|-|Adoptive Parents=
Cloudywing had a very toxic relationship with her adoptive parents. They only saw her as a servant and property, without complex feelings or thoughts. They constantly beat, starved and verbally abused her, as well as forcing her in musical and beauty pageants, and whenever she lost one, would be beaten, starved and verbally abused more. This caused her to develop a very unhealthy relationship with food and use that as “therapy” of sorts. They always took credit for her work and success, and Cloudywing is overall fearful of her adoptive parents and anyone who reminds her of them. Ever since the liberation of Pantala she wrote songs about them dissing and calling them out since she was restricted from doing so before Queen Wasp was overthrown.
|-|Adoptive Brother=
Cloudywing's adoptive brother was the only one who was somewhat available and kind to her. Even though he showed her empathy and was usually kind to her, Cloudy still resents him a little for being ashamed of showing kindness and compassion, even after Queen Wasp's reign was ended. He genuinely supported her musical career and didn't take any credit for her work. However, Cloudywing still has a negative opinion on him, basically he’s guilty by association.
|-|Fireworm=
Cloudywing and Fireworm have always hated each other. Fireworm arguably abused Cloudywing the most out of their parents, and tried sabotaging her whenever she got the chance. Fireworm would steal food from Cloudywing, make messes wherever she could for Cloudywing to clean up, and even lied to her parents to watch Cloudywing get beaten for her own amusement. Fireworm also stalked, harassed and threatened Cloudywing as adults, and got no repercussions because she was a HiveWing. Fireworm always took credit and seemed somewhat friendly towards her adoptive sister in public, only to make it seem like she genuinely inspired Cloudywing and that the SilkWing's merit was her own. When Jewel became queen of the HiveWings, Fireworm was jailed for her crimes committed towards Cloudy years ago and swore vengeance on Cloudywing. Meanwhile, Cloudywing wrote a song about Fireworm, naming her directly.
|-|Metalmark=
Cloudywing took an immediate liking towards Metalmark even when they first met. She didn't really speak to or about Metalmark many times, mainly because he was Queen Wasp's personal servant and Wasp would punish both Metalmark and Cloudywing for interacting with one another. She thinks about Metalmark a lot, and even wrote a song about him, but she doesn't necessarily "love" him. After Pantala's liberation from Wasp's reign, she was sympathetic towards Metalmark since to him, his whole world was destroyed, and she is in the process of trying to un-brainwash him and convince him to move to the LeafSilk Queendom.
