Right, Left, Right, Right, Left, Right, Left, Left- it's easy!

Paradiddle is an average SandWing, to the untrained eye. Like most in her tribe, she has a thin, lithe build. She is quite short, with small areas of chubbiness. At her age, she could have been beautiful, but she's quite ordinary.
Paradiddle has light yellow scales, with small speckles of very pale yellow, like beach sand mixed with desert sand. Her scales seem to be a more saturated shade of yellow than those of other SandWings, but many simply think of this as a natural oddity. Nothing worth mentioning.
Her sail is an odd orange-coppery colour, like red sand. Some remark on its uniqueness, others glance pointedly at Paradiddle's other odd feature: bright green eyes. However, in most places she performs, they don't even stand out among all the hybrids and strangely coloured dragons.
Her face is rounded, and looks quite a bit more natural in a smile instead of a frown. Paradiddle's horns are a pale pink-yellow, uncommon but not unusual. She has thin, arching eyebrows and speckles of off-white on the top of her snout.
Paradiddle has an aura of friendliness around her- quite different from the usual SandWing stereotype. She also has very good (but not quite perfect) posture, despite her, ahem, 'vertically-challenged stature.'
She wears a red and blue striped scarf, even in warm weather- unless she's performing, in which case she allows passersby to drop coins on it for her playing. She also carries a small drum on her back, in case the place she's going doesn't have sufficient percussion access. The mallets are kept in a small pouch attached to the straps keeping the drum on her back, but she doesn't always use them.

I don't really have a residence- I can't stand seeing the same old place every day.

Paradiddle is cheerful, most of the time. She differs from the SandWing stereotype in a few ways, but holds to it sometimes as well. While she's nice enough, dislikes shiny things or jewellery and is generally useless in battle, she also has a talent for pick-pocketing and a love of music shared by many SandWings.
She spends her days busking in many towns and cities, such as the Scorpion Den, Possibility, Sanctuary, Jewel Hive and more. She's nomadic, always moving from place to place. Paradiddle has few close friends as a result, as she never stays in one area long enough.
While she would sometimes lament her lack of long-lasting relationships, Paradiddle is happy with moving around. She finds remaining in one place boring and pointless, and enjoys a fresh view.
Paradiddle's most noticeable personality trait is her love of music. She's an awful singer, and much too shy to dance, but when she finds any percussion- be it drum, triangle, marimba, xylophone or even just a trash can lid- she's instantly in with the song. Her skills are self taught, but she fist got into percussion because she was named after one of the rudiments of drumming.
Paradiddle is fairly kind and makes friends easily- another kind of problem, seeing as she always has to leave them on her travels. She isn't very brave or strong, and doesn't have many opportunities for loyalty. She's resorted to a number of unsavoury tricks to keep herself alive- stealing, bribery, blackmail and destruction of public property, among other things.
