Galaxy (The Eclipsing Galaxy AU)

Galaxy is an adult, trans-female, Icewing-Nightwing hybrid created by LxL2008. She hatched from a twin-egg with her brother (Eclipse) under two full moons, resulting in her prophetic and mind-reading abilities. With her father being Prince Hailstorm of the Icewings (a descendant of Queen Diamond, the animus Icewing Queen hailing from 2000 years ago), Galaxy also hatched with animus magic.
*Note: Galaxy is from an Alternate Universe named "The Eclisping Galaxy", which was also created by LxL2008. Any links on this page will only be redirecting to characters from this Universe.
== Apperance ==
Galaxy has the typicaly Nightwing body shape, with the exclusion of her front talons (which are Icewing shaped) and her tail (ending with an Icewing club). She has the iconic Icewing spikes coming out from the back of her head and her face is also shaped like an Icewing, with Nightwing eyes instead. She also has the string of white scales running down her neck to her tail, like all Nightwings do. 
Her base colour is a dark, greyish navy blue. A lighter shade of her base colour paints her belly, talons and hooks at the end of her wings. Her crest is a darker shade of her base colour; and her horns, spikes, spines and Icewing club are pale, icy blue. She has a pink tongue, unusual for Icewings, and violet eyes with a silver tear-dropped shaped scale at the edge of her eyes, a sign of her mind-reading powers. 
The most notoable part of Galaxy are the underside of her wings. Instead of having the normal Nightwing constellation wings, she was hatched with galaxies on the underside, which became her namesake. 
Galaxy is always shown wearing an earring after her encounter with Cove. It is shaped like a snowflake, make with diamonds with a piece of aquamarine in the centre. It was enchanted so that when Galaxy wears it, she will grow gills and webbing between her talons. 
== Personality ==
Galaxy is calm and collected. She is the type of dragon to make a well thought-out plan, but it ends up failing because she is also the type of dragon to take risks when she has too. She is very protective, to the point where she may seem bossy, but she is caring and welcoming nonetheless. 
As a child, Galaxy was loud and unpredictable, which her mother adored. But as she grew, and started to embrace her animus magic, she toned down her spirits to better manage her magic. Hearing the tales of Albatross, Arctic and Darkstalker left her very wary of her magic, and she often fears it. 
== Biography ==
=== Before the War ===
Galaxy hatched with her brother, Eclipse, from a twin-egg two years before the Sandwing War of Succession. Being born under two full moons meant that she had prophetic and mind-reading powers. Galaxy, obviously, was named after the underside of her wings. Her mother (Cometseeker) raised her and her brother, teaching them how to survive and told them stories about the world beyond the Rainforest Kingdom and their father, Prince Hailstorm. 
Galaxy learned of her animus magic when she was playing with some vines near the Rainwing Village. She was discovered by a Rainwing fruit-gatherer and in a panic, shouted at the vines to protect her. Due to her unclear phrasing and still childlike mind, she had accidentally enchanted the vines to strangle the Rainwing for her, not to kill him but prevented him from moving for Galaxy to return to her family. After that incident, Galaxy had become a lot more serious and wary of her magic, making a personal vow that she would never use her magic for her own gain.
=== During the War (The Dragonet Prophecy Saga) ===
Galaxy and Eclipse had turned three years old when Cometseeker decided to take a risk, to take them to the Icewing kingdom to be safer from the war. The three of them took off, through the tunnel that lead to the Kingdom of Sand and would fly through to the Ice Kingdom. However, a battle between Blaze and Burn's forces was taking place when Galaxy and her family arrived. Cometseeker advised her children to stay close as they tried to fly through the battle, but she was killed while doing so, leaving her kids orphaned. 
Galaxy, being the protective sister that she was, reached out to one of the Icewings on the battlefield and they fled with the battalion to the Ice Kingdom, where she met Blaze and Queen Glacier. 
Over the course of the war, Galaxy grew to become the dragon that she is; serious, calm, collected. Her being an animus left her in the palace for most of her life and she understands its for her own good, while her brother fought in the war. She developed a strong bond with Queen Glacier and her heirs, but never had the chance to meet her father, not that she would know even if she did as Cometseeker never mentioned his name. Alongside her bonding with the royals, Galaxy also bonded with the soldiers, especially the accident prone-ones as she is a healer. 
Galaxy became a very specialized healer, being able to treat almost any wound. She strictly forbid herself to use her magic, unless absolutely necessary, so if she ever has the chance to leave the palace, she would to gather herbs.
As the war progressed and got more dangerous by the hour, Galaxy gained permission from Glacier to access the Icewing Animus Gift Room. She took the Gift of Stealth and gave them to Eclipse, to protect him in the war. 
When Galaxy heard about the Dragonet Prophecy, she knew at an instant that it was completely a fraud. With her prophetic powers, however, she was able to make a proper prophecy with the help of her brother: "Three sisters, on the brightest night. In the courtyard, they meet with all their might. One shall die, another shall burn. But not one of three will be able to earn."
Galaxy was absolutely devestated when Fjord the Icewing was captured by Queen Scarlet, as he was one of her closest allies in the Ice Kingdom. She then broke her vow against her magic and enchanted a knife that never misses, preparing for the the day she would enact on her revenge. Eclipse had convinced her not to act on rash emotions and she gave the knife away, promising to never use it, and gave it to Glacier for her to put into the Icewing Animus Gift Room. But when news that Fjord had died in the Skywing Area floated to the Ice Kingdom, Galaxy was thrown onto thin-ice once more, tempted to cast spells to avenge him. Eclipse helped her through this tough-time and kept her mental health in check. 
Galaxy travelled to the Sandwing Stronghold on the false brightest night with Eclipse, Glacier and Blaze at Sunny's request. Though she had played no part in the ending of the war, she was glad that the prophecy she had foretold had came true. 
=== After the War ===
Without the pressures of war, Galaxy and Eclipse were able to explore Pyrrhia to their hearts' content. Before they began their journey, Galaxy and Eclipse returned to the Rainforest Kingdom for a trip down memory lane. They got to see what changed, and met new dragons. Galaxy formed extremely strong bonds with the dragonets there, Rainwing and Nightwing. Kinkajou and Tamarin were among her closest friends, alongside the newly crowned Queen Glory and a Nightwing by the name of Deathbringer. 
Galaxy didn't spend much time in the rainforest, so in due time, she and Eclipse were on their way around Pyrrhia. But before she left, Galaxy left an orchid in Kinkajou's possession. It was enchanted to morph into a crystalline version of itself, and allow its owner to contact Galaxy through a mind-link, no matter how far away she was. 
During their travels, a female Skywing named Dawn had ran into them and asked if she could spend a little time with Eclipse, who was also tempted to know her better. Galaxy had no ill intent at Eclipse meeting new dragons so she parted ways with her brother and continued her travels alone. 
One day, Galaxy was flying over a lagoon in the Kingdom of Sea when a pod of orcas attacked her out of the blue. Getting dragged underwater, she defended herself to the best of her abilities until a Seawing chased off the orcas. Dragging herself back up to shore, Galaxy thanked the Seawing and to her shock, the Seawing apologised on the orcas behalf. Taking a moment to know this mysterious Seawing, Galaxy learned that her name was Cove and that she hatched and lived in this lagoon with the orcas her entire life. 
Galaxy quickly took interest in Cove, finding her past as intriguing as her own. Galaxy began spending most of her time with Cove, and it wasn't long until an attraction formed. It started out as leaving gifts for Cove, or sometimes vice-versa. Then they proceeded to go on makeshift "dates" or find joy in little activities that would seem stupid to other dragons. It took roughly around three months for Galaxy and Cove to solidify their relatioship.
Knowing that she must spend most of her time in water, Galaxy enchanted an earring that allowed her to breathe and be more mobile underwater. 
Eclipse had came to the lagoon Galaxy currently lives in and begged her to help him and his new partner, Dawn, from Scarlet. Galaxy kne wthat he brother was asking her to enchant something for their benefit, so she sadly declined, wanting to protect her soul. Eclipse and Dawn took off, leaving Galaxy sick with regret. 
=== Jade Mountain Prophecy Saga ===
Galaxy had gotten to know the rest of the Dragonets of Destiny and occasionally pays a visit to Jade Mountain Academy, the new intertribal school. She sometimes gets called upon to give a few lessons on intertribal connections and relationships, with herself being an example. She enjoys her time at the academy, but never stays long as she now has a lifelong partner to return to. 
When Darkstalker was released and a plague surged through the Icewing tribe, Galaxy was determined to help her tribe, both of her tribes. She enchanted a rock to become a compass, one that would lead her to the quickest source of help. It led her to the Scorpion Den, where she met Typhoon and Qibli. After discussing the matters at hand, Galaxy and Typhoon took the earrings Qibli made for the Icewings and took off towards the Ice Kingdom. 
When they arrived, however, they realised that they were hundreds-of-thousands of earrings short. Galaxy, wasting no time, enchanted the earrings to duplicate themselves until they had more than enough earrings for the entirity of the Icewing tribe tripled. But she was still too late, as Queen Glacier had already passed, leaving Galaxy flabbergastered. But she had no time to sulk in her emotions; as Snowfall, who was newly elected Queen of the Icewings, took off with the tribe to battle with Darkstalker and the Nightwings are Jade Mountain. 
Galaxy followed the Icewings to Jade Mountain, but she could not do anything to stop the chaos. She was affected by the connection spell that was enchanted by Anemone, and was sent back to the Ice Kingdom, still in shock at what had occured within the span of what felt like a millisecond. 
After learning of Darkstalker's defeat and his reformation into Peacemaker, Galaxy peacefully returned to the lagoon and remained with Cove, hoping that chaos will now rest and peace will reign over Pyrrhia. 
=== Family Life ===
Being a trans-female means that Galaxy will be able to have eggs, despite being a lesbian. And that is exactly what had happened, as Cove conceived one egg. 
As its hatching day came, Galaxy convinced Cove to partake in the old Nightwing custom; letting the moonlight touch the egg on the night it hatches so the dragonet will have powers. They took their egg up onto the beach and waited, but it never hatched. Galaxy was distrauht and speechless as Cove took the egg back underwater. All night, she was tempted to take the egg back up to the surface and use her magic to call out the dragonet, but she resist the urge and slept through the night. 
The egg hatched naturally after an extra day in the lagoon's waters. Galaxy and Cove, thankful that their egg was healthy and safe, welcomed their new daughter into the world. Galaxy named her Odyssey, seeing a wild and adventurous life for her. 
Galaxy and her new family lives in lagoon peacefully, under the watchful guard of the orcas. 
=== Lost Continent Prophecy Saga ===
Galaxy was contacted by Kinkajou, several months after Odyssey had turned one. Galaxy listened as Kinkajou told her that she had been chosen as a representative on a mission to the Lost Continent; Pantala. Not only that, Galaxy also needed to bring along Eclipse, someone Galaxy had not spoken to in the last three years. But seeing this as an opportunity to explore and reconcile with her brother, Galaxy agreed. She, Cove and Odyssey took off to locate Eclipse who, they found out, was settled on an island off the north-coast of the Sky Kingdom with a family of his own: Dawn and two dragonets, Charcoal and Dreamfly. Galaxy had recognised Dreamfly as the dragon she had been seeing in her recent dreams. 
The flight to Jerboa III's hut was filled with an awkward silence, mostly between Galaxy and Eclipse. 
Galaxy and her brother, upon their arrival, was told that they will be sent to Pantala as the Representatives of Intertribal Connections, along with the other ten tribal representatives and scavenger representative: Sky, Tsunami, Bullfrog, Pineapple, Moonwatcher, Qibli, Lynx, Luna, Cricket, Sundew, and Wren. Galaxy watched from the side as Eclipse and Dreamfly discussed over the latter joining the mission, to which, Eclipse reluctantly agreed to. 
Once given the mark; Galaxy, along with the other representatives, took off towards the Lost Continent.

More information flying in soon...
== Relationships ==
=== Eclipse ===
Galaxy and Eclipse were always close with each other. Being hatched from the same egg, with mere seconds in between, these two were inseparable. Galaxy didn't always trust Eclipse when it comes to serious situations, but if it's on the field thinking, she'd trust him with her life. They always look out for each other, Galaxy for Eclipse's safety and Eclipse for Galaxy's sanity due to her animus magic always eating at her soul. But after the incident with Dawn, the two lost touch and gradually, their sibling bond was lost. 
=== Cometseeker ===
Cometseeker was Galaxy and Eclipse’s mother. She was the only connection Galaxy had to the world beyond the rainforest when she was a dragonet, so she always listened to the stories her mother read to her. The first three years of Galaxy's life revolved around Cometseeker, until the unfortunate battle that killed her. 
=== Hailstorm ===
Galaxy has no recollection of Hailstorm, nor has she ever heard his name. Cometseeker would tell her stories about her father and it leaves her to wonder whether if she will eventually meet him, but chances are; she has, but has no idea that she did. 
=== Cove ===
Cove is Galaxy's life-long partner. Galaxy loves Cove because she is different from any other dragon she has met, mostly because Cove grew up isolated from other dragon tribes, even Seawings, so she developed a unique personality different from any other tribe.
Their relationship is positive, to say the least. Galaxy never feels the needs to argue with her partner as they agree on most things. They enjoy spending time with each other, even if it's just doing the little things. Galaxy trusts Cove with all her life, and Cove's bond with her is not too far off from the same thing. In the end, the two girls love each other and if anything were to come in between, Galaxy is willing and will do anything within her power range to protect her partner.
=== Dawn ===
Dawn and Galaxy have only met once in their lifetimes, and that was when said Skywing was looking for Eclipse. Dawn is definitely not one of Galaxy's closest friends, let alone family member. Galaxy trusts Dawn, however. The two simply don't interact on a daily basis. 
=== Odyssey ===
Odyssey is Galaxy's daughter, as well as her only child. Galaxy often wishes that her daughter had hatched on the proper date, under the moons so she would've had Nightwing abilities. 
But regardless, Galaxy loves her daughter just as much as she loves Cove and is raising Odyssey to become the best version of herself as possible. Galaxy swore upon the moons that Odyssey would live a long and wholesome life, without ever having to face the life that her mother grew up in, orphanhood. 
=== Charcoal ===
Charcoal is Galaxy's nephew, though she has no idea that he exists. Upon arriving at Jerboa III's hut, Galaxy met Charcoal for the very first time, but never had the chance to speak with him. 
=== Dreamfly ===
Dreamfly is Galaxy's niece. For several years, she was unaware of Dreamfly's existence, until she appeared in one of her dreams. Galaxy speaks with her niece if she ever visits her in the dream-realm. They met in person when both arrived at Jerboa III's hut, and have been able to speak to each other during the mission to Pantala. 
=== Glacier ===
Queen Glacier was similiar to a second mother-figure to Galaxy. After all, spending nineteen years in the Icewing Royal Palace, she didn't have much to do except to talk with Glacier and learn about about her surroundings. Glacier treated Galaxy quite poorly upon first meeting her, due to her Nightwing heritage. But after spending more time with her grandniece, though she was unaware of their biological connection, Glacier started to warm up to Galaxy and treated her as one of her own children, allowing her to bond with the rest of her family and heirs. 
Glacier's death affected Galaxy's mental health greatly, leaving her hollow for several weeks after the Icewing Plague. It impacted Galaxy enough for her to doubt herself and wonder whether if she was good enough for the world. 
=== Fjord ===
Fjord was a regular at Galaxy's healing room, being the accident prone dragon that he is despite being a great fighter. Galaxy enjoyed her small-talks with Fjord in the healing room and it led to them forming an uncle-niece bond with each other. 
Much like Glacier, Fjord's death impacted Galaxy. It was his death that caused Galaxy to break her animus vow, her first step into embracing her darker side. 
=== Snowfall ===
Snowfall is the only Icewing princess that Galaxy really had the chance to speak with. Mink hadn't hatched and Crystal was fighting the war, leaving Snowfall and Galaxy together for most of the time. Snowfall, much like her mother, did not bond with Galaxy because of her Nightwing heritage, but eventually grew out of it and accepted Galaxy as a friend and later sibling. Galaxy and Snowfall treated each other similar to how the Dragonets of Destiny did; looking out for each other and caring for one another. 
Snowfall would often ask Galaxy for advice on how to be a good queen after the Battle at Jade Mountain, and Galaxy uses her brother's personality of being a natrual-born leader to aid Snowfall in her reign over the Icewings. 
=== Blaze ===
Blaze and Galaxy do not converse with each other. Galaxy sees Blaze as a sweet, but ignorant dragon and would like to stay out of her intimate circle. Blaze only really likes Galaxy for her wings. 
=== Blister ===
Galaxy never met Blister in person until the False Brightest Night. But through the stories she's heard of the Sandwing, Galaxy finds Blister to be the type of dragon to make someone's blood run cold, especially with her intelligence. 
=== Burn ===
Galaxy never met Burn in person until the False Brightest Night. But through the stories she's heard of the Sandwing, Galaxy imagines Burn as a stereotypical tyrant and would never suit well into the Sandwing throne. 
=== Thorn ===
Galaxy only met Thorn once, on the False Brightest Night. The only thoughts Galaxy has on Thorn is that she would make a great queen for the Sandwings. 
=== Scarlet ===
Galaxy has never met Scarlet in person, not ever. She is wary of the Skywing Queen and her long-lasting reign, so Galaxy tries her best to stay clear of Skywing Territory. 
=== Deathbringer ===
Deathbringer is among some of the only Nightwings that Galaxy knows beside her mother. She finds Deathbringer to be the annoying, charming type. Although she dislikes his personality, Galaxy is quite fond of Deathbringer's enthusiastic work-ethic when it comes to being Glory's self-appointed bodyguard. 
=== Darkstalker ===
Galaxy feared Darkstalker all her life, especially after learning about her animus magic. She always felt like she would become the monster Darkstalker is, lose control over her magic and fall into the evil that is animus magic. So naturally, when Galaxy heard of Darkstalker's awakening, she was terrified. She tried her best to stay far out of his reach, hiding in the lagoon with Cove. 
=== Kinkajou ===
Kinkajou is one of Galaxy's closest Rainwing friends. Galaxy finds that she and Kinkajou connect and balance each other out, which is what keeps their friendship strong. Galaxy's calmness and Kinkajou's hyperness fit together like peas in a pod, and when Galaxy had to go, she didn't want to lose her friendship with Kinkajou, so she enchanted the orchid that allowed Kinkajou to contact her at any time.
=== Tamarin ===
Galaxy doesn't know Tamarin as well as she knows Kinkajou, but Tamarin inspired Galaxy. she was impressed at how the dragonet didn't let her blindness stop her from living a proper life, and that gave Galaxy a dream, a world where dragons would all live together peacefully, no matter what differences they have.
=== Glory ===
Galaxy and Glory don't speak to each other often, but Galaxy admires Glory becoming queen at such a young age. She supports Glory and would offer her help, if it was ever needed. Glory was the one who introduced Galaxy to the other Dragonets of Destiny. 
=== Clay ===
Galaxy and Clay have a co-workers relationship with each other, due to Galaxy's occasional visits to Jade Mountain. Galaxy also fancies his kind and caring nature towards his friends and the dragonets at the school.
=== Tsunami ===
Galaxy and Tsunami have a co-workers relationship with each other, due to Galaxy's occasional visits to Jade Mountain. Galaxy also fancies her bravery and leadership skills, as they remind her of her brother, Eclipse. 
=== Starflight ===
Galaxy and Starflight have a co-workers relationship with each other, due to Galaxy's occasional visits to Jade Mountain. Galaxy is also greatly inspired by Starflight, as he is in a simililar condition to Tamarin. 
=== Sunny ===
Galaxy and Sunny have a co-workers relationship with each other, due to Galaxy's occasional visits to Jade Mountain. She is much closer to Sunny as she sees her as a fellow hybrid and they bond over that fact.

The three Sandwing sisters were to meet in the Sandwing Stronghold Courtyard, on the brightest night (later seen to be a false brightest night). One of the three will die by some means, and another will burn to death, but the remaining sister will still not earn the Sandwing throne.
== Trivia ==
* Galaxy and Eclipse hatched from a twin-egg, which is normally a Skywing occurrence. It is unknown how this had happened.
* Galaxy and Eclipse's backstory is inspired by Moonwatcher's.
* Galaxy can breathe frostbreath, while her brother cannot.
* Galaxy has the Icewing Accent, due to spending most of her life in the Icewing Palace. Eclipse often teases her for it, for he did not develope it because he spent more time outside the Ice Kingdom, and with the Sandwing armies at times.
* Galaxy is terrible at fighting, especially claw-to-claw.
* Galaxy has a love for Scavengers, but she doesn't express it. Due to this, Galaxy spends as much time speaking with Wren as possible on the mission to Pantala. 
* Galaxy prefers tropical weather and conditions, most likely because she spent her early years in the rainforest.
* Galaxy would've reminded Darkstalker of Whiteout if they ever met face-to-face.
* Galaxy also admires Typhoon, like how she admires Sunny, but she didn't get to express it during the chaos. 
* If Galaxy had met any other Seawing, she would not have fallen for them. Galaxy loves Cove because she was different and unique. If she had met a different dragon who was raised in isolation, Galaxy probably would've fallen for them instead. 
* Despite being able to produce prophecies and read-minds, Galaxy rarely uses her moonborn abilities. 
* Galaxy never truly honoured her vows against her magic; she still uses her magic for personal gain.
* Galaxy held a strong hatred towards the Dragons of Destiny, due to them being destined in a fake prophecy. After meeting them, she let go of that hatred. 
* Galaxy is unaware of a lot of things that had happened in Pyrrhia. Some include: 
** Eclipse having dragonets. (She met her niece, Dreamfly, in her dreams and met her and Charcoal both in person upon arriving at Jerboa III's hut.)
** Scarlet's death.
** Moonwatcher foretelling The Jade Mountain Prophecy.
