__TOC__
==Appearance==
Blanc looks like an average IceWing. He has a few spikes in his neck, quite a few spikes on his tail, which is however
shorter than an average IceWing's, and the claws on his wings aren't exactly as curvy as the average IceWing's. He has
white scales all over his body.
==Personality==
Born a prankster, meant to be a prankster. Blanc is a cunning IceWing, and he is often found thinking about the next trick he could play on people he knows. When this isn't the case, he is either looking to practice his IceWing abilities in an attempt to look stronger than his rival, Brightsky. He believes that becoming the leader of Brightsky's self-proclaimed winglet will make him popular and prove his strength. Tries not to show his soft side to his friends because of this, but he enjoys his parents' affection.
He also has been caught a few times by Sandstorm and Soil secretly spying on Brightsky, despite being self-proclaimed rivals. His justifications when caught were "I have to be three steps ahead of my rival!" and "I'll show you what I can do when I'll be the leader of Brightsky's winglet!" in a shaky voice, as if embarrassed by the fact he had been caught.
==History (Warning: very long!)==
Blanc's father and mother were your average IceWing living in the Ice Kingdom. Their lives were fairly ordinary until the day when, the IceWing queen was troubled about a bunch of royal dragonets ran away. The notable part about these dragonets were that they were the children of a princess of a tribe that the queen had never heard about before, and a lot of IceWings certainly knew nothing about either. Distressed, the IceWing queen asked her guards to look for the dragonets, promising a reward that would have made more than an IceWing accept the offer on the spot. One of these guards was Iskalt, Blanc's father. He, along with some other IceWing guards, patrolled the entire Ice Kingdom, and even, with the consent of the SandWing queen, patrolled the north of the Sand Kingdom. They looked for the lost hybrid dragonets to no avail.
Their return, empty-handed, to the IceWing caused her worry to become anger. She started meeting up with advisors and thinking about where the dragonets could have went, and while it was true that the princess of the new tribe she found out about was still married to one of her sons, losing what would be the first hybrids resulting of this union was unacceptable. She wanted the dragonets back home, as soon as possible, no matter the cost.
Things changed when she received a letter from the RainWing queen, mentioning a group of strange dragonets looking like IceWings, but weren't quite IceWing. The RainWing believed that considering the numerous testimonies of the dragonets, they wandered away from the Ice Kingdom on their own, and by chance, they ended up in the rainforest. The way the letter was written clearly indicated that the RainWing queen wanted to settle things peacefully, and while the IceWing queen was both angry enough and stressed enough to assume that the RainWing had kidnapped the dragonets, her advisors managed to convince her that her story didn't made sense; for RainWings rarely ever think of even approaching the Ice Kingdom.
After a few letters exchanged with the RainWing queen, it was agreed upon that the lost dragonets would be returned to the Ice Kingdom, and in exchange, the IceWing queen would cease believing that RainWings were behind the disappearance of the dragonets. The IceWing queen sent once again her guards, including Iskalt, to fetch the dragonets from the Rainforest.
However, Iskalt, had a gut feeling. Something wasn't right. He felt like something would happen. Somehow, his instincts told him it wasn't related to the RainWings, as he had never met them but heard about their relatively peaceful manners, but something was still strange. Knowing this, and the mood the IceWing queen was in, he left a letter to Blanc's mother, Neige, which he was living with, telling her that if he doesn't come back, she would need to leave the Ice Kingdom as soon as possible, and fly for the Rainforest. In fact, he had even left indications as to which paths to avoid because guards often patrolled those, which parts of which territories to avoid because she would get caught for trespassing and be handed to the queen of the tribe of the territory she would be trespassing on. All of these instructions, were written in Neige's cryptic way, for she loved solving problems, and had worked on a secret messaging system, where only she, as well as the people who knew how her system worked, would be able to figure out what was written.
Reaching the Rainforest wasn't really difficult, and soon the IceWing queen's guards reached the designated meeting point where the dragonets would be handed over to the guards. The unsuspecting guards didn't restrict the dragonets' mobility, as the testimonies of the dragonets portrayed them as children who got lost while playing. However, they would keep an eye on each of them for sure, and as such, they surrounded the dragonets to ensure they don't tree to escape their guard.
While on the way to return to the Ice Kingdom, they had decided to rest in the SkyWing territory. It was a full moon, and the guards decided to rotate to keep an eye on the dragonets. Most of them were asleep already, but none of the guards wanted to imagine what kind of treatment awaited them if one of the dragonets went missing. It was Iskalt's turn when his worries became true; one of the dragonets had disappeared, and, in the middle of the night, in SkyWing territory, finding it would be a task as dangerous as it is difficult: IceWings usually have colours that are fairly visible under the moon light, so getting spotted by a SkyWing would be easy. This was the tipping point for Iskalt: he knew that returning to the Ice Kingdom without one of the dragonets would be bad, but as it turned out, the dragonet that went missing was the child of one of the IceWing princes, and the IceWing queen knows her grandchildren by heart. It would be suicide. Then, an idea came to Iskalt's mind.
It was crazy, maybe it could even cause issues between the SkyWings and the IceWings, but desperate times call for desperate actions: he left a letter to the guards, saying that one of the dragonets went missing, and that he saw a shadow kidnap the dragonet. Of course, the letter said that he would be chasing the shadow, when it obviously wouldn't be the case. Death can turn even one of the most loyal subjects into a coward; and the idea of having Neige captured and likely sentenced as well was what sealed Iskalt's fate: with the letter written and left to the guards, he flew away from the group.
Of course, when the remaining guards reached the Ice Kingdom and handed Iskalt's letter to the IceWing queen, and she found out that one dragonet was missing, and one that belonged to IceWing royalty, despite being only half-IceWing, the IceWing queen had the guards captured and jailed. The news quickly spread through the Ice Kingdom, and to Neige's ears, and she then remembered Iskalt's letter. Without wasting time, she hurried and left for the Rainforest.
In the situation the two IceWings were in, hope was scarce. Both, without knowing if their partner was still alive were navigating the Rainforest, with the same idea in mind: ask the RainWing for mercy so they could live in the Rainforest, away from the possibility of a trial and its consequences in the Ice Kingdom. Iskalt, however, was the first to reach the RainWing queen, and so, he had no choice and begged the RainWing queen for pity, and for the right to live in the Rainforest. As different as the climatic conditions were in the Rainforest for an IceWing, he would have to adapt, and he would do anything to stay alive, hoping that Neige had read his message. Thus, he asked the RainWing queen another favor: if she were to be asked for the right to live in the Rainforest by a female IceWing, and her name would happen to be Neige, she would need to be granted the same right, and Iskalt's whereabouts would be disclosed to her. The RainWing queen considered the request for quite a while, but eventually accepted; after all, what would be the point of sending a former guard and his partner to their death, especially considering that they could end up becoming loyal to her in the long term?
And so, Iskalt's request was granted, and fulfilled when Neige happened to have been captured by RainWings patrolling the Rainforest. When she was brought in for an audience with the queen, the first thing the RainWing asked was the female IceWing's name, which matched the one Iskalt provided. With a smile, the RainWing queen explained that she had been waiting for her, not personally, but to fulfil a favour that a certain IceWing asked her. Looking to preserve the surprise, she just said that she would need to meet up "with a certain guard" at a given place. The reunion of the two IceWings, who had braved death, and were likely left for dead in the Ice Kingdom was complete, with both of the IceWings overjoyed to meet each other. With their existence likely written off the records of the Ice Kingdom, they had nothing more to worry about.
They both swore to help the RainWing royalty in exchange for the fulfillment of their requests. The RainWing was surprised, but warmly welcomed the offer, and Neige was offered a role as a messenger, her problem-solving skills and capacity to create puzzles seen as an asset as they could be used to transmit secret messages if the need arises, and Iskalt was instead assigned to the duty of helping with finding food. The RainWing didn't want to run the risk of using a former guard that failed his duties as a guard, but she felt like he could still be useful in a way. Not that Iskalt complained: he was alive, and he was offered the chance to live with the one he loves the most, in a territory where he wouldn't be at risk.
Blanc came into existence a few years later: his parents being busy working for the RainWing royalty, his egg was placed into the hatchery. His parents would often drop by the hatchery during their breaks to watch the egg's evolution, and hoping that it would hatch soon. Their wish eventually got fulfilled when, during a full moon, it hatched, with the help of a young, newly born MudWing-RainWing hybrid, and a young NightWing-IceWing hybrid who didn't understand what was happening and thought about helping the MudWing-RainWing dragonet. The newly born IceWing dragonet had pale scales, almost white, and the full moon shining in the night sky further emphasized the colour of his scales. So, when his mother dropped by the hatchery to check on the egg as she would always do, she decided to name her newly born dragonet "Blanc", a name that his father approved.
He wasn't left alone for long, as a few moments later, a young SkyWing dragonet also hatched, and her first reaction was to try to play rough with the young IceWing, which awakened the young IceWing's desire for rivalry. Of course, these first moments of rivalry were cut short by the MudWing-RainWing dragonet stopping the SkyWing, and a newly born SandWing dragonet getting off-balance and falling on the IceWing's back, tripping him. While the IceWing was unable to get up, he looked around him, looking to understand the environment he would evolve in, and he then saw the NightWing dragonet that also helped him hatch; however, he looked lost in thought and he was looking at the sky.
This fascinated Blanc. Who was this young dragonet who, so far, didn't do anything aside from helping him hatch? There was a MudWing who didn't want fights, a SkyWing that thought she was stronger than him, a SandWing with calm, but not-so-good balance, and this NightWing that was away from the group, looking at the night sky. Somehow, Blanc wanted to do something, be the center of that dragonet's attention. But his plans were foiled as the MudWing-RainWing hybrid, looking to greet her newly found siblings, fell asleep on top of the young NightWing, and the young SandWing that had tripped him also decided to approach the two of them and curled himself to sleep. It was at that time that he learned about the limits of his endurance: while looking to approach the SandWing to bother it, he ended up collapsing next to it out of fatigue.
Nowadays, Blanc still lives in the rainforest, and hasn't given up on his dreams of becoming the leader of Brightsky's winglet, looking to have the other dragonets acknowledge how strong he is, and that IceWings are strong.
==Relationships==
Soil
A MudWing-RainWing hybrid who is seen as the "bigwings" of Brightsky's self-proclaimed winglet. Nobody in the winglet seems to mind this, but Blanc finds her annoying at times, especially when she is messing up his most elaborate pranks on Stargazer or the occasional prank on Sandstorm, or when she appears in the middle of his friendly fights with Brightsky to stop both of them. That said, Blanc can't manage to hold grudges against her, and became accepting of her role as the "bigwings" of the winglet once he learned more about MudWings.
Brightsky
A female SkyWing dragonet that claims that Blanc, Stargazer, Soil, Sandstorm and her belong to a winglet of chosen adventurers. Often gets in fights with Blanc over who is the better prankster, or over leadership. She also likes to fight Blanc just to find out who is the stronger of the two dragonets; though there still isn't a clear answer yet with both
dragonets managing to stay on a rather stable win rate against each other.
Sandstorm
A SandWing dragonet born on the same night as Brightsky, Soil, Stargazer and Blanc, also part of Brightsky's self-proclaimed winglet. Seems to get past Brightsky and Blanc's pranks in the most inconceivable (at least in Blanc's mind) ways possible, which made Blanc think that he is boring and not a fun target unlike a certain NightWing hybrid of his winglet. 
Stargazer
A NightWing-IceWing hybrid born on the same night as Soil, Brightsky, Sandstorm and Blanc. Often the target of Blanc's pranks, Blanc is having a contest with Brightsky over who can prank him better, much to Stargazer's disarray. Blanc also finds Stargazer's IceWing heritage strange, but never confronted Stargazer about it.
Iskalt
Blanc's father. Former guard and servant of the IceWing queen, fled after one of the dragonets he was supposed to lead back to the Ice Kingdom suddenly disappeared. Still wants to be a good father, even though he is busy, and tries to cheer up Blanc by thinking of fun ways he could prank his friends. 
Neige
Blanc's mother. Escaped the Ice Kingdom when news about the guards in charge of carrying the lost hybrid IceWings back to the Ice Kingdom were arrested for not getting back all the dragonets. Now serving the RainWing queen as a messenger, she cares about Blanc's well-being. Loves her son a bit too much, sometimes to his dismay when he is looking to look independent and strong in front of his winglet friends.
