Genevra

Genevra now belongs to Chocolate!
G E N E V R A 
sometimes, i wonder why we live at all, when life sometimes just seems so hopeless. all those happy moments, those days that make you feel like every star is shining brightly when gazed upon, would eventually seem as a lie when they all go out. why do we choose to go on, when we already know only darkness lies ahead, when the fire in our souls would only cause us to crash and burn, when death could just be one moment away and everything would just be gone?
at one point, i realized, most dragons are only trying to live but not survive.
and they live, for they have already made it this far.
Genevra was once created by my dearest friend Frosty, and she is now under the care of Essence. Please refrain from editing her page or using her without permission, as this character is sort of a memoir to my friend and thus is very important to both of us.

Genevra is a thin, slightly tall dragon, not being very large for her age. She doesn't have many attractive features, although her appearance can certainly be called decent. She has the general body shape of a NightWing, with longer spines running down her back. Her main, straight horns are pale grey and the rest of her spines are deep blue. She has no color changing scales or other notable RainWing features to speak of, and has little to no SeaWing characteristics as this part of her bloodline is very faint. 
In terms of coloration, one can easily call Genevra dull. Her main scales are composed of very dark blue, so dark that it is almost completely black, and there is a light blue colored stripe running down from her neck to the start of her tail, just above her underscales. Her wings, however, are quite the eye-catcher. They are a soft, pale sky blue, with a gradient of azure, and they spread like neither tribe she is from. White speckles are scattered like stars across the light surface. Gen's eyes are of a gentle periwinkle, and they carry a weariness that shouldn't belong to someone of her age. 
She actually has a pair of RainWing fangs, but they are shorter and do not contain venom. Her forked tongue is an odd dusty purple, although in dim light it just appears to be grey. Gen has a longer tail than either of her main tribes, but they do not curl like either side, making it useless for climbing trees. She is mainly a NightWing, with slightly off coloration and a few oddities. The only thing that is SeaWing about her is her eyes, which glow and pulse lightly in the dark, and grants her enhanced night vision a normal SeaWing does not possess.

what's so bad about being alone? no one gets hurts this way.
If you pay close attention, you can see this dark dragon standing off silently to a crowd, with a generally melancholic expression on her snout, or having her head in a book or scroll. 
If you don't pay attention, then you might not see her at all. 
In the face of the world, Genevra is passive and mostly indifferent, ensuring that if no one talks to her, she wouldn't be socializing at all. Despite the outward exterior that shows that she is almost always only depressed, there are actually an entire storm of emotions bubbling in her. No matter how odd she seems, she has felt all the emotions a normal dragon has felt in their life - love, pain, stress and even happiness, one thing that no one can expect her to feel. 
In short, Gen does almost always feel sad, but she isn't in any way depressed or mentally ill. She just feels like it is a unique part of her personality, that she can never be as jovial or cheerful as some other dragons in her life. The dragoness is very philosophical, and this can often show in her writing. She loves losing herself in abstract concepts, like romance, ideas and many opinions. If not careful, she can also completely detach herself from the world by escaping to her imagination. It is also partially why she enjoys philosophy so much, for she could spend hours lost in her thoughts, a place she knows the world is safe from her. She also sees writing as the only way of speaking and connecting with the real world she is shutting herself away from, almost like a silent cry of help, even if she believes no one can possibly save her. 
Since she is very secluded and secretive, Gen is terribly awkward and even terrified of social situations. When with strangers, she gives others the impression of a cold and unfriendly dragon, but this is something that is frequently misunderstood about her. Some part of her craves affection and attention from others, but she has never sought it, not believing that she is someone who deserves it. When asked to open up, Genevra can suffer severe panic attacks or break down. 
On the flip side though, she acts completely differently when socializing. Gen has surprisingly decent conversation skills, and one would rarely find talking to her to be an unpleasant experience. She's harmless and generally easygoing, not requiring much or having extremely high demands to be satisfied. However, getting her to feel comfortable around you is a very difficult task. However, she is actually incredibly wise, even though it doesn't always show. Gen is the dragon that you wouldn't expect to get advice from, yet always manages to help you in some way in the end. This is not something she willingly admits though, and with all her attempts to avoid any form of socialization, who knows if anyone may find out?

i'll just use this part to tell you that this is a placeholder section for now
a nightwing that has foresight. but somehow can only predict horrible futures, disasters and the like. and they are terrifyingly accurate. nightwing family disowned her because of that, thinking that she was some sort of harbinger of doom. while she was in the rainforest, they made it so that it looked like she was an orphan, and threatened her to never tell her true origins. gen did just that out of fear, and ended up growing up with a rainwing family, far away from her home. 
she didn't have any more terrible visions until when she was older, she foresaw her adoptive family's death. but they were always nice to her and she didn't want to be chased away again. she kept this to herself, because she couldn't see brighter futures anyway, and has no idea what to do, even though guilt and shame haunted her. when the visions grew the strongest on one night, she flew away into the night to hide for a while, unable to handle the terrifying images, and when it subsided, she returned to see her house in flames from a lightning strike. (it was the same lightning strike that involved nixie's parents.) 
she couldn't handle the guilt that came with this. she realized that her original family might be right, and she was nothing but bad luck. she inherited whatever her adoptive family left her, and fled to sanctuary's school to study. along the years, she shuts herself away from social contact, basically suffering in loneliness. no matter how much she strayed away from other dragons, visions of their doom sometimes still appear, and with every unpredictable death or disaster that came, it added to her growing sadness, but in a way she also grew wiser and became very philosophical about life. 
when she graduated, she opened her own bookshop in hikari, unable to stay in sanctuary for all the deaths she has seen earlier than everyone else, and done nothing about it. she interacts with no one apart from her customers, hoping that if she doesn't see anyone familiar, she will never be able to foretell anything about them again. also became a writer herself, expressing her feelings and hidden sadness about life and a lot of deep stuff. she hides away in perpetual loneliness and a longing for comfort and companionship, but at the same time she thinks its for the best she kept away from everyone else.
