Feel free to ask for any relationships!! Formmating is kind of awful on Mobile (It only works on computer, sorry!) 
Vestal Hesperia (Or just Vestal) is a 16 year old female SilkWing who resides in the LeafSilk Kingdom. She is currently a member of the SilkWing assembly, and works, manages, and studies for an exotic plant shop.
==Description==
Vestal has pale yellow scales and a pastel pink underbelly, with hints of a rosy sunset color along her spine, head, and shoulders. Her wings are mostly the same peachy color, but have interlacing splashes of icy blue. Her antennae are the same color. She has a somewhat alert posture, like she is always observing. She is a bit smaller than average.
<tabber>
|-| Before Arc 3=
Her size and stance weren't considered very beautiful for SilkWings in Jewel Hive, as they preferred tall SilkWings with an elegant posture- But her unique and oddly pastel colouring made her considered 'exotic' among a select group of HiveWings. She has extremely pale pink claws and horns.
Back in Jewel Hive, she was oftentimes more glamourized as her owner was more obsessed with her wearing the 'appropriate' amount of gold and colourful fabric than anything else.
Her wingbuds were described as pallid with only a hint of pink along them.
|-| Current=
She currently wears two gold bands around her neck- With the first one having a large tear-shaped diamond hanging from it. She wears a gold bracelet and ring on her outermost digit. (Left claw/arm)

==Personality==
Vestal has a complex, entwined personality that leaves many wondering who she truly is and if she ever changed. She is both a possible hero and a possible villain at the same time. Is it her backstory? Her life? Circumstances? or is it just how she is?
<tabber>
|-| Before Arc 3=
Before the events of Arc 3 Vestal was mostly described as sweet, with a quiet demeanour and a non-threatening disposition- But she never stood against authority and was more likely to bail and get someone else in trouble instead of herself when she could (Even if she was at fault).
This made her largely disliked and untrusted with the other SilkWings during her time in Jewel Hive, as she had caused many of them to go punished so she could be trusted among the HiveWings. She was known as the 'untouchable' one, the betrayer (Which earned her the nicknames "The Worm/Rat" and "The Pearl Princess". She used to go along her HiveWing owner to parties, and often helped attend the shop they owned.
Vestal would also lie if she was afraid someone would be angry at face-value, and was known to be petty even when faced with compensation.
|-| Current=
Vestal is described as smart, honest, hardworking, and virtuous- Someone who values justice and truth because she knew what it was like to see someone suffer because of that. She is bright and welcoming to anyone she sees. She is also a lot more loud, energetic, and outgoing than before. If she had to say why she did anything that way in the past, she would say it was...
"Because I could."
And she regrets (?) it.

==Biography==
=== More about what Vestal does for work (Aka stuff conflicted so I gotta fix it) ===
* Her main job is running the Plant shop, but she also works another full-time job as an attendee archivist for the SilkWing assembly. She mostly leaves the shop to Colourwheel whenever she has to go to one of the bill meetings for the assembly.
=== Not really Biography but here, look at this! (Written at 12 am at night with nothing but sleep deprivation) ===
Vestal attends Colourwheel and Crocus's wedding!
==Relationships==
===Oleander (Partner)===
Thinks he has an extremely dangerous job, and sweats in panic every time she visits him and looks at the state of his store. As a fellow shop owner, she thought he'd be more careful!
They get along well, relating to each other with their pale scales and occupations as merchants. She's brought Colourwheel to see him multiple times and sort of showed off her best friend like another one of her plants. That was a bit weird.
=== Colourwheel(Positive - Friend/Employee) ===
Vestal finds his shy personality adorable, and enjoys going around the LeafSilk kingdoms and buying croissants for him. She thinks he has a good attitude and work ethic, but wants him to be more confident in himself sometimes. She likes that she can trust him to handle her shop when she travels to Pyrrhia for different reasons. She thinks they are good friends, and that their Employee/Boss relationship doesn't affect their friendship much. She is happy they have a loving partner.
===Cherry (Neutral - Mother)===
She doesn't have a good opinion on her mother. Although they managed to reunite a lot later (In the LeafSilk kingdom) With the help of Primrose and Petal, Vestal can't get over the hurt that was done when Cherry gave her over to the HiveWings. But she understands Cherry's position, and they're currently working on mending their relationship (Even if Vestal will never truly forgive her)
=== Dynasty (Neutral/Positive - Friends/Aquainted) ===
WIP
===Primrose and Petal (Positive - Sisters)===
WIP
===Unnamed HiveWing (Neutral, Occasionally positive - Old Owner)===
WIP
===Starflicker and Crag (Positive - Friends/Aquainted)===
Positive. They met in the LeafSilk kingdom and being well-versed in HiveWing culture, she offered to help show them about the history she knew. She is also part of the SilkWing Assembly, and has access to many historical records about HiveWings. She thinks their interest in HiveWings are a bit strange, but assumes that was just her upbringing and is happy to show them more.
===Owen (Negative, one-sided - Relationship is complicated)===
Negative. Mostly one-sided from Owen- When they were both younger, Owen knew Vestal as a SilkWing who would visit the cruel ArachWing camp with her HiveWing owner. Although she would always look at the ArachWings with sympathy, she would never communicate with them or try to help them-- Even when they were alone and she could've. Vestal herself doesn't remember much about this, but Owen's hatred stayed- Even as the years went on...
===Loki (Neutral, slightly positive(?) - Person of interest)===
Neutral. She doesn't know all too much about him, but she likes that he browses through her exotic plants. She thinks he's a wealthy potential customer, and that he'd be worth a lot of money if he bought something. She keeps trying to get him to buy things.
===Fawn (Positive - Person of interest)===
Positive. She finds Fawn and her sweet and slightly demeanour adorable, but tends to hound the poor MudWing to sell more exotic flowers like her (Albeit with good intentions!). She thinks Fawn could be making better business decisions, but is conscious enough to keep her snappy opinions to herself. She thinks Fawn and Velkana are cute together, and would totally also start hounding Velkana to "Get your girlfriend to sell more plants! Yes, I know the orchids are hard to keep alive, but come on... Think about the money she could make!" Before being shut up.
=== Illia (Negative, one-sided - Relationship is complicated) ===
* An upcoming relationship in The Pearl Princess
=== Gaea (Neutral/Positive - Acquaintances/Person of interest.) ===
WIP
==Trivia == 
*She is planned to play the role of Antagonist in my upcoming fanfic "The Pearl Princess"
* She finds RainWings the most unique out of any other tribe.
**Particularly due to their bright scales like SilkWings and the way they can change their colors.
***"Really?! You can just... Change them whenever you want? Imagine if we could do that back in Jewel hive..."
**She also finds it interesting only the two longest teeth (fangs) of a RainWing have venom, and can actually spit/spray it. 
***"You can just... Spit it? Out of your mouth? At a distance?! Wow!"
*She won her name from a name poll I did a while ago!
*One of her welcome banners are messed up from when I got lazy doing the editing... Let's see if you can find what I REALLY messed up on! 
*Her personality is an extremely exaggerated version of mine. (I mean, EXTREMELY.)
