Tempest the Skywing Seawing

== Appearance ==
Built like a Skywing, Tempest is an intimidating dragon. She has pearly white mainscales tinted with blue and dark blue, almost black accents. Her horns and spikes are cobalt blue, and her eyes are the same color. 
She has a lean but muscular build and several scars on her wings and neck. Tempest is pretty tall, towering over most dragons. Her right eye is blind, and a long scar runs down that side. The only accessory she wears is a maroon scarf her mate gave her. 
==Personality==
Tempest was literally hatched to fight in the war. She is violent in a quiet way and doesn't know how to express her feelings other than yelling and setting things on fire. Only a few dragons can calm her down, and she is unquestionably loyal to the ones that can. Most of the time she is dead silent, just glaring at her claws. She has PTSD and is terrified to death of loud noises. 
Tempest is a natural-born leader and was a general in the war. She rarely speaks but when she does, her voice is powerful with the ability to silence everyone in the room. Most dragons find her pretty scary, as she looks like the kind of dragon who could easily tear off your wings. In truth, Tempest despises killing. After killing so many innocent dragons, she made a vow to never kill again, except in self-defense. 
==Abilities==
Tempest has very weak fire and that's it. She makes up for her lack of abilities with her fighting skill, though. She's especially proficient with a spear but can use other weapons too. 
==History==
====Pre-Hatching====
Tempest's parents were a Seawing by the name of Aquamarine and a Skywing by the name of Falcon. They met after Aquamarine was captured in a battle. Falcon was the guard assigned to watch her, and, well, they fell in love. Aquamarine was sent to fight in Queen's Scarlet's arena. But she had an egg and gave it to Falcon just before she died. Falcon was understandably devastated and gave the egg to Queen Scarlet, promising the dragonet inside the egg would be “a killing machine." 
====Dragonethood====
When Tempest hatched, Scarlet was horrified that the dragonet inside was a hybrid. Nonetheless, she remembered what Falcon had said and pitted her against one of her sons. Tempest obviously lost, and the son blinded her in the right eye. Scarlet still decided to keep her. She was sent away to a rich Skywing family and worked as their servant. The Skywing family had a dragonet about her age, named Bluejay, who made her life hell. When the War of Sandwing Succession started to get worse, the family sent her away to serve in the army.
====Adult====
Tempest quickly rose through the ranks of the army, soon becoming a general despite the fact she was a hybrid. She helped win several battles and was the commanding officer of the bombing of the Summer Palace. She became close friends-maybe more than friends-with General Fen, a Mudwing whom she often served with. Then, in a battle with the Icewings, Fen was captured. She launched a rescue mission to try and save her, but Fen died trying to save Tempest on the way out. She was stunned. She left the army and moved to the town of Possibility. Then, one day, she met Hawk. A cheerful Skywing she encountered on a walk by the river, she and Hawk quickly became friends. Hawk's love for her was obvious but Tempest was scared that if she started to love him back, something bad would happen. One night they were walking along the river together and heard screaming. They saw two dragonets being drowned in the river. Tempest had promised she would never let another innocent dragon die, so after a brief fight, saved the dragonets. The dragonets, an Nightwing named Galaxymaker and a Nightwing-Icewing hybrid named Froststriker were orphans, so she and Hawk adopted them.
