Mercury

Mercury is a normal NightWing, named after the toxic liquid metal.
Of course, the most abnormal part of him is his name. Most NightWings don't have this sort of name, but his parents thought it would be cool.
Yup that's it. That's why he's called that.
Because his parents thought it would be a cool name.
They could've used the excuse that it was a planet which would've been a more 'NightWing' name but no
== Appearance ==
His scales are mainly a dark grey-black, like every ordinary NightWing - but he has streaks and curls of silver between and across his scales. His underbelly is a grey-blue, and his eyes are green - a distinct contrast to the cooler colours and shades of his scales.
Under his wings is a typical star pattern, but fades to a cooler grey at the tips of the membrane and the stars become sparser.
His claws are a dark grey, darker than his main scales, but with a faint tint of blue. His back spines start off as purple and slowly fade to blue, and then to green at the tip of his tail - which makes some dragons confuse him for being a RainWing-NightWing hybrid or even Rain-Night-Ice in some cases. 
His overall build is sleek but a bit jagged. His claws aren't very sharp due to wearing them down by walking on rock a lot. He's not malnourished, as he hunts and forages in the rainforest a lot.
== Personality ==
Mercury is only what other dragons can describe as 'normal'. However, compared to most NightWings he has quite a positive outlook on life and situations thrown at him. After life on the volcanic island, he's learned to stay on the positive side of life. He'd really wanted to go to the mainland since he was a dragonet, and when he finally came of age, he nearly forgot to stay close to the tunnel when he went to explore the rainforest.
Whenever he can, he strikes up conversations with other dragons passing by, even if they get annoyed at him. He is not naïve, as he's seen a lot of things - and he respects other dragons' space.
He keeps to himself, hiding his true self from every new dragon he encounters. He is wary of strangers, but can still confidently talk. He is very good at talking lots, but saying next to nothing and allowing the other dragon to reveal things about themselves. He likes using psychology tricks to make other dragons believe certain things, his particular favourites being those that stop him from getting into trouble.
He wants to live in the rainforest when he's a little bit older, and he constantly sneaks through the tunnel whenever he can.
