Stardancer / Female / Questioning / / / sharpthrust's main sona
== Appearance ==
rewriting, wip
Stardancer's scales are dark gray-green, like a moss-covered stone that someone scrubbed, but badly. Hints of dark blue shine in the edges of the scales on her spine, casting a cold glow on her appearance. Her eyes are a cold, chilling blue, the color of a cool summer twilight sky.
Stardancer's wings are classic to a BeetleWing. Glimmering in a delicate-looking way, the basic shape can be attributed to that of a SilkWing, yet they are thin and transparent like a HiveWing's should be. The color palette is a rainbow in shades of warmth; even the blues and silvers are softer and more tinged with green and yellow than they should be.
Stardancer's figure is long and lanky, though she doesn't look nearly as skinny as she did when she was little, her body shape filling out gently. Her snout is a SilkWing's, despite tapering to a HiveWing nose horn, and her scales are caked with dust.
Stardancer lives a busy life --- there's always somewhere to go and someplace to be. Rarely does a moment ever fall upon her where she has nothing to do. As such, there are a variety of scars on her legs from where she scratched herself a bit too hard, though she definitely won't sacrifice the exploring she loves so much just because of a few allergies
* revamped her appearance
* i just thought her first look was a bit ugly and too complex, tbh
*thin and langly in beetlewing form. looked like you could push her over with a leaf
*by far that was not true. stardancer was still muscled fairly well, but she could only win strength competitions with dragonets younger than her
*bright stains on talons because avid artist
== Personality ==
Stardancer/Amber is smart, logical, sensitive.
She knows much about the natural world, and can tell you many random animal facts if you bother to ask. She is also very observant, noticing the slightest changes in a dragon's expression, or the eye color of a specifc, very ordinary SandWing among a large wing of ordinary SandWings, and wishes that her parents, as well as plenty of dragons around her, would stop showing her everything they saw and would just trust that she saw and registered it herself.
She loves reading, especially books that contain adventure, dark humor, or horror --- preferrably all in one. But she hates talking about it because her father likes to make fun of her intrests (Not in a bad way or with bad intentions, but that only makes it worse), and she detests having the precious characters she just read about being made fun of and having their names pronounced wrong on purpose.
Stardancer/Amber, however, also has a dark side.
She enjoys ruining the day of some dragons, not with something major, but just by finding a thing that someone accidentally dropped that they might be looking for everywhere and taking it for herself, or dropping a banana peel in someone's garden, for example. She does this not because she has really malicious intent, but because she enjoys having power over someone's luck.
Stardancer or Amber also hates goody-goodies more than anything else in her life. The idea of a perfect dragon, who is all sweet and nice and caring and forgiving, and has never worked a day in their life, and who everyone loves and spoils, and who could get away with any amount of genocide, just makes her scales burn and her stingers twitch/her throat long to burst with flame and wipe the dragon off the face of the earth. That was how she aquired her hate for Woodlouse/Cottontail.
Stardancer usually isn't outwardly emotional over many things, or at least not over things that 'should' cause an emotional reaction. For example, even though she might be upset over animal abuse and food waste, she won't spend any time crying or hissing in anger over it. One of the reasons is that her parents hate crying of any sort and punish her whenever she does it. The other is that she simply cannot bring herself to do anything about things that do not directly concern her. Selfish or not, that's just the way she is.
Stardancer, unfortunately, can be very egotistical, and can have trouble feeling sympathy for others, especially if their problems are already recogonized by others. Sometimes, she hates something just because it's popular to others.
* one of her greatest fears is others thinking she's crying or otherwise being emotional when she isn't
* tries her best to be casual
*not scared of taking risks, but fails to see the point in them
== History ==
MAJOR spoilers for Stardancer's Destructionand Amber's Chance!
Stardancer was hatched to a pair of aristocratic BeetleWings. She grew up in a mansion a little way off the Pantalian coast, at approximately 2,035 A.S. Playing with dragonets her age, camping in a forest near the mansion that she knew like the back of her talons, scribbling tiny drawings in the soft, dusty floor of her attic. A normal life, far from danger, and moral complexity --- you were either good or you weren't. Simple as that.
Then everything changed.
It started with the tension. Stardancer knew something was wrong the day before that fateful first year at her school --- severe headaches, and blurry vision whenever she flew too high in the air. 
Stardancer tried her best to brush it off, and played as usual.
The strange feeling disappeared completely the next day. Stardancer had a great time at school. It was just so fun, and everybody loved fun, right? And the best thing about it was her new friend, Woodlouse. Her parents were the sub-king and sub-queen of Pantala, apart from Stardancer's own grandma and grandpa, of course. It was good to finally have someone who understood what it felt like to have royal family.
Stardancer spent many happy days with Woodlouse, at either her own house or her friend's. They mainly played pretend. And a big theme in their games was the concept of good and evil.
== Quotes ==
Amber: Why, Cottontail? Why do this, ruin others' lives for your own pathetic pleasure?
Cottontail: You don't understand, do you? I've always been the hero of this story, the good light in everyones' lives. I will save Pyrrhia from this horrible, disgusting villain before me, wipe her off the face of the earth. And that villain is you.
Amber: Cottontail, I will give you a chance to back out of this.
Cottontail, smirking: Don't bother. I won't take it. And you can't do anything to me, anyway. My parents argued so much in my dragonethood. Everyone feels sorry for me, offers me sympathy, says I'm a brave little dragon, gives me hugs that they think I need. We speak of seven Pyrrhian queens, one for each tribe. But we needn't say things like that, because I am the true queen. I have every single dragon here under my talons to command, and there's nothing you can do to stop it. I don't think you will even try.
Amber: Oh, won't I?
== Trivia ==
* cat person
* would enjoy pineapple on pizza
* hates pink, really, because it reminds her of Cottontail
* prefers darkish colors to pastel ones
*finds it almost impossibly hard to wrap her mind around the concepts of light years, stars, and an infinite universe. she loves it
