personality
Jackal is a dragon of few words, lacking the usual bursts of emotion seen in his fellow Sandwings, and will generally utter words only when spoken to. Even so, his responses are short and straight to the point. He is always seen with a deadpan face and expresses little-to-no emotion, as well as being a no-nonsense type. The only time he is seen to show strong emotion is when caught off guard with one of Mottledsight's out-of-pocket comments.
..And he's a bit socially inept.

early life
Jackal grew up in the... worse part of the Scorpion Den, living in an orphanage from under a year old. When he was old enough to go to school, he was sent to Plateau Boarding School , where he basically spent all his time there. He never properly returned to the orphanage after going to Plateau Boarding School,.
adolescence
The Plateau Boarding School was... well, crap. It was dusty and old and the children there weren't much better than those in the lower-city orphanage. Rather than returning home during the summer, winter and spring terms, Jackal lived as a vagabond in the streets of the surrounding towns, fighting for any meal he could get. It wasn't very stable and some days he went without food, but he made it work.
Mid-spring of his 6th year at Plateau Boarding School, he was given the offer to spend a week at Camp Wildeagle, his PGL residential. Lucky Jackal, he didn't have to have a parent pay for him to go since he was part of the 'low income parents' group. Also, he's an orphan, so there's no parents to sign it. He was placed into Sparrow Cabin as the sandwing, the other dragons being Rivulet, Rallus, Caldera, Algae, Electric Eel and Mottledsight. The camp sucked, it rained the entire time and was freezing, the cabins were cramped and everyone was homesick. Doesn't help that the staff didn't even care for their safety.
During his time at the camp, he broke his back leg and was left with a permanent limp due to the Camp staff refusing to take him to any sort of licensed doctor. They did at least let him stay in the cabin to rest. And by they I mean they locked him in there while he begged to be let out. That only lasted one day, since the next morning the trip ended and all the kids were sent home. During the night, however, Mottledsight gave Jackal a gift; a pair of enchanted ear-plug hornrings that blocked out all sound except the voice of whoever he's talking to. Jackal had always struggled with getting overwhelmed from other people trying to talk to him, unable to block out their voices.
It sounds corny, but Mottledsight was just looking for any way he can get a friend.
adulthood
When Jackal left Plateau Boarding School at 9 years old, he had nowhere to go. He could have stayed in the school, but who wants that? He headed toward the new city that had been built, The Sun Fortress, a city belonging to a rebel group.
This isn't too interesting, but he eventually found work as the Gatekeeper of the main city gate, becoming close friends with the rebel leader.

NOTE : All these characters are the same age, it's just the age I put them as in the infobox depends on what part of their lore is my favourite
Rivulet (Polar)
| RIVULET.Rivulet is Jackal's Holiday Friend / Cabinmate
Jackal and Rivulet shared a cabin at Camp WildEagle during their PGL trip. Rivulet is the Icewing that slept on the bunk below Jackal. They got along very well, but never got the chance to visit each other afterwards.
Caldera (Polar)
| CALDERA.Caldera is Jackal's Holiday Friend / Cabinmate
Caldera is a firescales Skywing that shared a cabin with Jackal at Camp WildEagle during their PGL trip. Jackal still has a small mark from where he bumped into Caldera and got burnt. They got along very well, but never got the chance to visit each other afterwards.
Mottledsight
| MOTTLEDSIGHT.Caldera is Jackal's Holiday Friend / Cabinmate
Mottledsight is an animus nightwing that shared a cabin with Jackal at Camp WildEagle during their PGL trip. Jackal still thinks Mottled was a bit weird, but has never let go of the earplugs gift.
